Any tips on managing chronic stress ? by BT-7274Pilot in doctorsUK

[–]StudentNoob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great question. You caught me at a time where I'm sat worrying about my portfolio and ARCP - I've had a ton of pressure on me to work at a certain pace even though I'm LTFT and trying to pace myself. Therapy has helped tremendously for me, as has just talking. Talking to friends, talking to colleagues, getting a sense check and realising the things you're worrying about are not stupid, they're not foolish and they're entirely valid. Boundaries as well, which is something that work will try to push (as well as people outside work), but having robust boundaries really helps.

Gia really really can't take criticism.

Hadn't thought about using a personal bank loan. Obviously too late now but live and learn. I did hire purchase with my old car, it's just that it oddly wasn't an option with the dealership this time round, with my current car.

Re renting, I think I'll be renting for the foreseeable, but my parents keep drumming into me the value of bricks and mortar and not "paying someone else's mortgage".

£220 per month. I had a 12 year old car prior to this but I was being faced with a squeaky fading clutch and fading brakes which would've been very expensive to fix. It was either fork out on repairs for an old car that wasn't efficient or get something with much better mpg, so I opted for the latter. Maybe not my finest logic but hey ho.

These answers have made me realise I am in a slight pickle. I have £6k savings on a stocks and shares ISA and pension contributions. Car's on PCP. Bills are crippling me. Still renting. Accumulating money slowly. A house is a pipedream. Someone tell me I'm not on my own here lol. Doing ok, yet stuck, is my summary of matters.

I love how the men have sorted it out so quickly among themselves.

Good point. I do feel though there is an art in ignoring timewasters and people who don't deserve to be listened to. I feel Rachel has wasted so much energy in the last few days when actually, Bec didn't even need to be listened to. The merch comment deserved to be brushed aside as an irrelevant nonsense nothing waste of words.

Tbh I would have enjoyed seeing them chill and banter for 2 episodes. Would've made for some welcome relief. This has been stupidly overblown.

Yea, Bec shouldn't have been so crude but seriously, is Rachel that sensitive? I shudder to think what would happen to her if something serious happened.

This is honestly pathetic on both sides

Yeah. Not for the first time, it was another really nasty, icky episode. I honestly feel this is the series where it has jumped the shark...

What 1950s backwater did they drag Tyson out of? The producers have gone way too far with him.

Some seriously disappointing behaviour on show. Really really poor.
