IB DESTROYED MY LIFE
I find myself at a crossroads and in need of your insights. I started in September as a BB A1, i was so excited that i finally achieved my dream but it's come at a significant personal cost.
The relentless work schedule, extending into weekends, has completely destroyed my personal life. A vivid example: my rank in League of Legends, once an Emerald, has dropped down to Silver. The limited time I manage to carve out for gaming is fuelled by stress-induced misplays, leading to a frustrating string of defeats. If this trend continues and I hit Bronze, I will start taking Xanax.
And i did not tell you yet the worst. I'm contemplating leaving IB, but there's a complex personal entanglement. My girlfriend's boyfriend has put me in a precarious position, threatening that if I don't finance their 3-day trip to Italy, he'll persuade my girlfriend to leave me. It feels like I'm trapped in a corner, professionally and personally.
Any guidance, especially from those who've navigated similar paths, would be immensely valuable.
i didnt read anything you said but no it didnt lmao
Somehow I feel like there are many who have "navigated similar paths" to OP on this website
Hey man, hang in there. I’m in a similar position and going through pretty much all that you are.. I’m sure lots of others on the forum as well.
It’s just the nature of IB, it takes a lot of your life, did you ever try doing glute focused exercises in the gym?
Skill diff both in game and in life
If y’all are going to be on this godforsaken app on a Friday night and shitpost, can you at least make it good?
"My girlfriend's boyfriend" hahahaha
I was expecting to see how the extreme hours led to losing a girlfriend, developing health issues or signs of prematurely aging. Instead, I read about how a drunk spends his Friday night.
