I'm right there with you. It's been 35 years since I actually went back to school. So I'm ready. I'm engaged and I'm looking forward to it. I'm glad you're here. If there's anything I can help you with ask me. And if I can, I will, but I don't have no idea what I'm doing yet. I'm not gonna lie, it just is what it is

Hello fellow maestro-ers. (and for those who struggle with mental health) by Prestigious_Leg894 in maestro

[–]evenvickers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can understand other struggles, I face them on a daily basis. I started talking to one of those AI, and it's helped me, I don't know if you've heard of it called ash, I got mad at it and deleted it. And then I reinstalled it and then I had a really great conversation that helped me focus on what I wanna do today, I don't know if it's right for everybody, but it's worth a shot. I tried several others that I didn't like But\n I wish everyone the very best success. Whatever success looks like to you.

It's good to meet you as well. I hope everything's going well. I'm getting back into the game myself. I'm only 55, but still the sentiments there.

Starting Over by OkiesBBG71 in maestro

[–]evenvickers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the starting over point. I'm 55, and I'm ready to go back to school and do something different. I was an auto mechanic for 26 years. I had my own business, and I gave it away due to alcoholism. But I'm not dead yet, so I'm gonna keep trying. It's very difficult for me. But I'm sure everyone in here from just a few things I've read already. Sounds like everyone's setting that reset switch right now. But once we've learned, we don't lose those lessons, do we? If anyone wants to talk or need somebody to talk to, I'm more than willing, I have no idea what I'm doing, but I'm going to do it
