I did a zoom call with a psychiatrist and got Prozac and propranolol within an hour. Amazed at how easy the process is now with telemedicine and how helpful the right medications are. I wish I hadn’t tried to “tough it out” for so long and

I was in a very similar position as you a while ago and was equally despondent. I thought I was a good engineer, I had a good track record and experience, lots of open source, etc but my interviews were a dice roll. I would either answer th
