From a religious standpoint, there's a certain logic to it. If Jesus couldn't fully conquer Satan here on Earth, then obviously I don't stand a chance either. 🙂 Satan exists to test my resolve, acting as a sort of catalyst to help me discern what's actually good.

🤣🤣🤣
If Jesus himself couldn't beat Satan, you kids don't stand a prayer.

Anyway, my advice? Don't get too attached to people until you know them deeply enough that they can't screw you over later. 😉

I’m not sure it’s actually smart to tell a 24-year-old they need a degree, especially for something like preschool teaching. There are already way too many of those positions out there, and most people struggle to find work at all—let alone in their actual field of study. Following your dreams sounds great on paper, but in this economy, it’s a massive uphill battle. Sometimes it feels impossible.
At the end of the day, you just have to be grateful to land any kind of job and focus on making the shift go by faster. You grind through those eight hours and just feel lucky that a paycheck is waiting for you at the end of it.

👏 And let's be real, there are plenty of jobs out there much worse than yours.
If I could go back, I would give anything if my parents had just pointed me toward law school when I turned eighteen.
Struggling to sleep? in Psychology & Therapy ·

As for myself, I managed to resolve my insomnia by simply switching to the night shift at 😵 .. well, let's just say it happens occasionally when sleep eludes me even after finishing a late shift 🙂 .. though that is quite rare 😉

Physical activity definitely helps, as does finding some romantic connection 🕺

Honestly, such wonderful advice from everyone here. Because of this whole issue, I actually went to see a psychologist once, but they seemed completely out of their depth, so I was passed along to a psychiatrist who just decided the answer was antidepressants. Then, I tried a different psychiatrist, and they reached the exact same conclusion.😵 But this idea about working nights? It's actually quite intriguing. I find myself thinking about it intensely because, honestly, I am ten times more creative and focused during the overnight hours than I am in the morning, when my bosses can clearly see that I'd happily watch them and the rest of the planet burn.😁 The only minor hiccup with the night shift thing is... well, what kind of job can a woman actually land? I'm not exactly cut out to be a security guard or a janitor. And let's face it, the old-school nocturnal trades aren't really on the table anymore.😵 So, if anyone has any bright ideas, please, do shout!😉

Struggling to sleep? in Psychology & Therapy ·
So, I’ve found myself facing a rather significant predicament. Once I finally drift off, it’s game over. Honestly, you could probably have a full symphony orchestra set up a concert right in my bedroom in the morning and I wouldn't so much as twitch. I suspect this might be one of the underlying reasons why I lost my job recently, though I'd hate to admit it quite so plainly. And don't even get me started on how many college lectures I've slept through... 🤦 I mean, I simply cannot function like this. Between the struggle of dragging myself out of bed at 2:00 AM every single day and dealing with people getting genuinely offended because I overslept our scheduled meetings, it's becoming exhausting. If anyone has any advice, please, 🙄
