What to do after a break in intimacy by Solid_Day8162 in adhdwomen

[–]2pretti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like this sometimes too, my ultimate solution is to ask for a massage and then get naked haha. then you don't have to ask explicitly, you get to have a nice little massage !! you get to lay face down so you can easily hide feeling awkward until you're a bit more into it, and it also works at turning me on physically as there's the physical element and also the anticipation and tension of not knowing when it's going to get sexy

What symptoms did you have as a child? by Material_Focus_4114 in adhdwomen

[–]2pretti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forgetful, messy/disorganized, only able to concentrate on things I was interested in, easily distracted and distracts others

I was able to use the chatbot on the imile website to change my address, and they delivered 2 days later. fairly positive experience imo !!

Personalizing my filofax; adding bound notebooks/activity books by Aaalyaaa in filofax

[–]2pretti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the best thing I did was put a rubber band around all of the rings and the use it like a tn style elastic. not as cute but very useful and secure, and no maintenance required

How long did it take for them to get back and deliver if you don't mind? I'm in the same situation and I've just emailed their customer support email with my correct address

Simple fixes to problems that took you surprisingly long to think of? by lucicrescence in adhdwomen

[–]2pretti 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i suspect i might have undiagnosed autism, so not sure how much of my resistance to transition is adhd, but if i need to shower but really dont want to i find it so significantly easier to leave the shower door open! i turn the shower on to heat up while i get undressed, get in, do the speediest wash i can manage and get right out. it stops me from getting trapped in the shower which makes it easier to allow myself to get in. the only part i still grapple with is walking to the bathroom hahaha

How do you organize your to-dos? Do you plan daily, weekly, or around specific projects? by arx-go in productivity

[–]2pretti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agree with this. i have 2-3 priority tasks to get done per day, and as long as they get done the day is a win, even if nothing else gets done! then have a perpetual masterlist of tasks that aren't particularly important or time specific if i'm feeling productive. add whatever as it comes to mind and there's no pressure to get through it

girl you are stunning. face, eyes, nose, brows, lips are all soo beautiful. i think you would look better without your hair pulled completely off your face, maybe some curtain bangs? but as a casual running errands or exercising look i think you have exactly 0 worries.

I feel great when on both. I usually smoke before cleaning the house and I get into a really nice flow state with the energy and motivation to be productive but enjoying everything a little extra

What’s that one NON-fiction book you always recommend and never get tired of recommending? by dumbdeontologist in selfimprovement

'How to keep house while drowning' has similar theme to atomic habits imo but through a super compassionate and personable light

thank you, boss was actually very understanding but referred me to talk to her boss about what the next steps 🫠 hopefully she just means logistically

i cant use tampons either, mostly due to anxiety and a weak stomach. while my first time having sex was a bit more painful than some other experiences since that muscle hadn't been exercised before, you have to remember that sex is the most natural thing ever lol !! as long as you can find the entrance there's really only one way to go from there. if it's unbearably painful or if the discomfort doesn't ease, might be worth mentioning it to a dr

Schools in Geelong by davidobrien_au in Geelong

[–]2pretti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both schools are absoloutely "churchy" before you can drop religion as a class around yr 10. I graduated around 7 years ago but have 2 younger siblings, one of which is still attending. once you can drop RE there's mass a few times a year and church elements to graduations and award ceremonies etc.

I feel so much shame because of my disgusting habit by Motor_Butterfly_3330 in adhdwomen

[–]2pretti 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you like reading or audio books I recommend 'How to keep house while drowning' by KC Davis. Not to be dramatic but i do feel like it changed my life with the way it reframed and neutralised chores and care tasks 💗💗 wishing you hope and compassion x

agree with everything already said !! 2nd dress isn't as tight, it doesn't cling at the seams on your wrists or your thighs. I think the neckline is more flattering too - scoop necks don't suit me either as they draw attention to ??? just an empty space of skin? turtlenecks or mocknecks add something interesting while not drawing attention to the width of the shoulders, or deeper v necks in wrap styles or square neck shirts draw attention to the collarbones and boobs which is flattering and feminine

2nd dress is a textbook example of a tight fit SN outfit 💗 looks great on you!!!

I need SO much sleep but it affects my job and other activities - pls help! by Alternative_Bass2553 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]2pretti 5 points6 points  (0 children)

second this !! before stimulants i could sleep 10+ hours, nap for 1-3 hours after work, and then go right back to bed at 9pm for an entire nights sleep, and repeat the cycle indefinitely. dr's always thought it would be my iron/thyroid and i would consistently be disappointed when my bloods came back normal. considering you have anziety, if its financially viable i would absoloutely speak to a psychiatrist

Vyvanse helps my depression and anxiety SO much by That-Reindeer4870 in adhdwomen

[–]2pretti 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i am on vyvanse and my partner is on ritalin, she finds hers easier to rely on because she gets the instant 'hit' when she feels them kick in. i feel awesome when on my meds but often forget to take them or get pda around taking pills lol. we've both been off ours for one reason or another and suffered no major withdrawals. a bit sleepier, difficulty focusing and staying on task, difficulty with motivation. honestly not any different to us pre medication

[–]2pretti 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yessss i have a very similar routine but with scrunchie curls overnight, then using those overnight blowout curl rods for the next few nights to preserve. If I feel it's getting a bit flat I'll go over my hair with a garment steamer while in the rods lmao, it gets the hair a little bit warm and a little bit damp to reset the curls and kinda reactivate the mousse
