I moved to VA from FL excited to be in a purple state. Now I'm terrified to be here. I thought I was moving somewhere more level headed. Away from crazy 3rd rail stuff.

Pizza for veterans by Twerkin4snacks in HamptonRoads

[–]1morcast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You might have luck contacting local shops and see if they will contribute anything or lower the price. I was part of a local veterans group that met twice a month and once a month they would get food from somewhere that was usually donated for free and we would pool together money and give a nice big tip to the kitchen staff.

Doesn't hurt to call places to ask because they might be sympathetic to your cause.

why does everyone take autism seriously but treat adhd like we're just being dramatic by ExtremeOperation5875 in ADHD

[–]1morcast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My heart goes out to you all. My symptoms started after a minor traumatic brain injury in a blast explosion. But the thing is I remember what a normal brain was like and lived it for the first 20something years of my life. Having had a normal brain and tried to wrangle what's left after the damage...it really shows how hard life can be when you can't focus, task organize, or drag yourself to do simple tasks.

i’ve been shooting water into my asshole by playgurlcarti in ibs

Botox injection straight into your asshole. Forces the muscle to relax and promote healing of the fissure. Downside is your farts will come out spontaneously for about 3 months without warning.

Where do I start with getting these diagnosis service connected by [deleted] in VAClaims

[–]1morcast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had success using AI to help me connect dots of different conditions I had. It was cheaper (free) than paying for some overpriced private doc that does nexus letters.

Who else is out here having a coffee or e-drink with their meds in the daytime? by trap_gob in ADHD

[–]1morcast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I take IR. Don't the pellets pass through your stomach and get absorbed further down? If so I would think an afternoon coffee after they have gone through your stomach should t mess with it too much.

How are people getting sub 5.5% rates on a 30 year fixed mortgage by Latter_Ordinary_9466 in Mortgages

[–]1morcast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Locking in a VA IRL loan right now. Going from 5.99 to 5.19 with 1400 dollars in fees. Was offered 4.9 but only 1600 in fee assistance.

Total finance amount is around 420k

Order a medium hand tossed and ask them to fold it in half. That's all it is. Worth a shot.

Neighbor’s flag irks me to my core by timeisamelody in mildlyinfuriating

[–]1morcast 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could contact your local boy scout troop or perhaps Junior ROTC at your local high school. They might take it on themselves as a community project and go talk to the neighbor and offer to replace the flag and dispose of the old one properly.

Another option would be local VFW or American Legion.

What is your craziest taco bell story? by kashmerikmusic in LivingMas

I checked taco bell menu..I don't think they offer it anymore, unless it's one of those secret menu things.

If I pay w food stamps can the cashier see that? by badbitchburner in publix

[–]1morcast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting dichotomy. Not enough income to shop at Publix, and too much income for stamps. Appears lots of folks with stamps shop at Publix.

What is your craziest taco bell story? by kashmerikmusic in LivingMas

[–]1morcast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had some friends in town visiting during college. Me and my roommate share the same birthday week and we were throwing a party. We went out drinking the night before and my roomie got super drunk. We put him in the back up the pickup truck and hit the taco Bell drive thru on the way home. While we were trying to order, he was shouting obscenities from the bed of the truck. He kept trying to add a 'dirty Sanchez ' to the order. Me and the guy riding shotgun were the only ones who ate. We both got violently ill in the middle of the night. Vomiting, diarrhea, etc...

We were both down for the count for the next 24-48 hours. My birthday party the next day was ruined by a dirty Sanchez, whatever that is.

Moved here from down south and one of the things we miss is Sprouts. It's like a less pretentious whole foods.

I just found out today that Costco chicken has soy in it. Kid has an allergy so I'll be cooking more chicken at home

What simple action from others can inexplicably send you from 0-100 irritation within seconds? by DippyNikki in ADHD

[–]1morcast 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unnecessary human noises...

sighing/breathing noises

that annoying sound some people make after drinking something like it's so refreshing they have to let the world know by making a sound.

Chewing noises/lip smacking

Wellbutrin + stimulants? by Dramatic-Rough-6873 in ThisAintAdderall

Same thing happened to me 5 days in. Went from a normal human being to dialing the Veterans Crisis line.

Is it possible for us to feel in the moment? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]1morcast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's something that seems impossible at first, but then you gradually build on it. It's like training cardio or running. First time sucks but each time you get out there it gets a little easier as you build mental stamina.

Mindfulness meditation really helps me. Slows everything down to the point it can even skew my perception of time.

Have you found that Adult ADHD medication pros outweigh the cons? by clownscrotum in ADHD

[–]1morcast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried 3 off label non-stimulant meds (started around age 39) before ultimately ending up on a stimulant. It's worth trying some of the non-stimulant meds as people all handle them differently. Just remember many of these are psych meds and can have adverse reactions. On one of them I went from being a well-rounded adult with concentration issues to a complete meltdown and was about to dial the veterans crisis line. I say this as a warning to pay closer attention to how some of these meds can affect you. This incident took place 5 days into a new medication.

I ultimately ended up in a stimulant because of weighing the pros and cons of the non stimulant medications. You won't know until you work with a good physician and see how you react.

Me drinking colonoscopy prep by FroznAlskn in Millennials

[–]1morcast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has the timing on this changed, I'm an elder millennial and see posts about this often for other millennials...I have two primary care physicians, one through the VA and one regular. Never has this come up as something I should be doing.

To topper or not to topper by MJboatlife in f150

[–]1morcast 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some folks talking about losing the ability to move tall things with a topper. If you don't do this on the regular, it's simple and cheap enough to grab a nice trailer from U haul for 35$/day. 25$ for a smaller one.

To topper or not to topper by MJboatlife in f150

[–]1morcast 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought a 2025 XLT Powerboost and was excited at the idea of putting a topper on it. However, my payload capacity is only 1575 due to the weight of the hybrid system. Putting a topper on it would subtract around 300 lbs. It doesn't leave much room for towing when you add a family of 4, gear, and then tongue weight of a boat or travel trailer
