    I finished up my CPA exams in July, so I totally understand how isolated and overwhelmed you feel right now. Just keep your head down and push through! Sending you positive thoughts!!

    It's really so ironic how you said you feel isolated and kind of "jealous" seeing people having fun and I was just thinking how badly I'm craving the stability and discipline that you have in your life. I've lived in 3 different countries in the last year and it's been amazing, I'm so grateful, but everything's very unstable, and I feel like career-wise I'm falling behind my peers. It's funny how social media really brings us to compare our lives to others' when we're all on entirely different paths

      THIS. grass alwayssss looks greener on the other side but it’s truly more green where you water it! i know the feeling. it’s all just a glimpse at the top of an iceberg for everyone honestly, we think we know everything at one look but don’t see allll the good and bad underneath it

    absolutely loved this!! I don't normally comment on videos, but this is exactly what I needed tonight and definitely uplifted me! Thank you for being so open and talking about the struggle of CPA studying. Literally thought I was the only one who feels like there's never a break to get this done/to breathe, and I especially relate it can feel so isolating. So to hear you're experiencing the same feelings is equally comforting and motivating (since I'm also studying for REG now, but unfortunately while doing full-time working at a big 4). Hope this helps but I took FAR as my first section, and had really bad anxiety before the exam and the weeks after for my score release. so from experience, I promise the moment you see your passing score for REG, it's empowering since it will validate everything you worked for AND sacrificed has paid off. You got this!!

    I’m not in accounting but I am a nurse and when we graduate we have to take a big licensure exam to be able to practice! I remember studying like you every single day for hours and hours and hours for almost 2 months and I still have PTSD from it. But now I’ve been a nurse for two years so all the stress and tears are worth it! Keep pushing on girl, you got this!

    I had a bump from my nose ring and something that helped within just a day or two was crushing up a few Asprin and then taking some of the crushed up Asprin and mixing it with a little water to make a paste and just rub it on the bump with a Q-tip!

    Girl I feel your FOMO while studying for the CPA but don't forget that you still get PTO when you start work! I think that it's hard to remember this but just cause you're starting in public doesn't mean you have to be there forever and you can always take a few months off in between jobs to go on vacation/take a break/spend time with family and friends. I definitely get where you're coming from - I've been studying CPA on and off for a year now and full-time for the past 4 months with little to no breaks but remember you are doing this for your future!!! Hang in there and good luck on REG! ♡

    I don't know if you've seen a doctor for migraines--but I didn't for years, and when I finally did it was literally life-changing (I got on a medicine you can take at the start of a migraine, and it stops it from becoming a full blown migraine). If you can, I recommend a neurologist! Esp if you have stress triggered migraines.

    Hi Abby! I struggle with the same thing with comparing myself to other people I see on social media. My classes are online and I’m living at home so I find myself comparing to my friends who are at school and going out all the time. So I decided to delete my socials at least for now lol. Also maybe try wearing blue light glasses when your staring at ur screen or lower your screen brightness so you have less of migraine

    So my bf finished this exam a couple years ago and did it before he started working and I’m telling you - no regret. People were trying to work and study and it never worked out. They either lost tons of money failing multiple times or just never did it. He just made manager at big four and you need CPA to do that and others are stuck in limbo bc they still can’t get that CPA.
    So basically STICK IT OUT. Keep focused. You are not missing out on anything really - because ultimately you are saving yourself time. You want to be able to get off work and not study and actually have nights off and be young still. You got this Abby!
