Man I’ve been kinda withdrawn lately. I’m normally a phone convo person but I haven’t been in a mood for a while. only thing I’ve done consistently is go to the gym. I want to get back to feeling like my normal self.

I feel like im hitting a stride again, but struggling to keep it going cause the things I really want seem so far out of reach still.
Just gotta remember all the steps

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
Found out a week ago that owners are selling all the properties that we manage since the market is hot and they see the bubble busting soon and wanna cash out now... sold all their vacation homes they rent out all year in Lake of the Ozarks and Turks and Caicos already...

99% sure losing our jobs... pretty typical when a new owner comes in to clean house and install their own people to run it... even though we are profitable...

I already know our boss is gonna make damn near a million off his commissions of these sales.. "promising" us severance packages (said I'd get 35K) to stick around til the property sells.. meanwhile can't really look for a job since we don't have a clue when the place is gonna sell (they hope 1st of the year).. when asked about our paperwork we just hear "it's still with the attorney... maybe a day or two more" which only leaves me to believe they are trying to pull some shyt..

Basically all of us that manage all the properties are walking on eggshells trying to scramble to figure out what we are all gonna do at this point and it's driving us all insane

Walking away from property management after this... these tenants are the fukking worst and I've been doing this for 11 years.. it's a soul crushing industry because nobody has your back... the tenants treat you like we are slaves, lie, intentionally break shyt and so on... Upper Management doesn't give a shyt... they just wanna bytch. Our boss is an overbearing micromanager, he has to know about everything, but if something goes wrong... he denies he knew anything about it and tries to blame us. Sends mass emails to everyone in the company (a total of 5 people) berating people for everyone to see... and is just a gaping a$$hole in general.

So many moving parts right now on living conditions coming up (sister is trying to buy a house since she stays in mine and I was getting free rent to stay on site but she cant buy a house since we are losing our jobs and she wouldn't get down payment money til after the place sells... and that's not a for sure thing that we have a date on)... doing this around the holidays means we gotta watch our spending which is gonna bring a downer on everyone for xmas and shyt...

I'm planning on taking a few months off when this is over... maybe take off the winter so I don't have to deal with the snow and ice and just sit home and watch NBA and shyt and live off the severance for a bit... maybe drive for doordash or uber eats or some shyt in spare time for a couple bucks... Just thinking out loud... but my mind is all over the place right now.. :yeshrug:




Damn fam... hold ya head (and ya bread, shiits cray-zon-day out chea with so much uncertainty across so many industries and sectors). That's really unfortunate.



But trill talk, if you decide to take a sabbatical from work and make it out to the Emerald City, hit me up and we'll go hit the town, grab some hennessy shots and eat some seafoods. You like calamari? Haha. I know it.

How important is getting a black male therapist, or at the least a black therapist?

Trying to find some in my area that take insurance but they’re either all not accepting new patients, don’t take my insurance, or don’t specialize in my situation.

Should I just hold out and keep searching? Or do you guys think I should just stop looking for a black therapist and go with a non-black one that’s easy to book?

Not sure here, not trying to waste my time with some CAC either :patrice:

Black if possible, preferably older man/woman. Keep searching

You should see a psychiatrist and check if you have bipolar disorder.

They can prescribe you mood stabilization medication.

No, not like that. Its more pertaining to autism. My mood regulation is fukked up where i tend to get moody as shyt. I can be numb or have a delayed reaction where ill hold back, get pent up then blow up and have a "meltdown". Anger rumination, they call it.
