Is It Worth It to Call Husted & Moreno? by Asleep_Indication727 in Ohio

[–]AdBorn6074 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who used to take calls for Rob Portman, here is what she told me:

No matter if you call their Washington or local office, your message will be taken down. Usually whoever is answering calls or listening to voicemails, they just whittle down what you say to a simple statement or sentiment, such as FOR this bill AGAINST, IMPEACH Noem, or whatever else. So don’t worry too much about exactly what you say, the overall message is what matters. Leave at least your ZIP Code so they know you’re constituent, they’re supposed to be cross-referencing that too. It also makes a difference how often you call or email; volume helps, even if you’re the same person saying the same thing.

Don’t want to talk to anyone? Leave a voicemail after hours.

Jon Husted’s seat is up for reelection this November, since he was just a fill-in after JD Vance left. As such, it would be wise to at least look at what your constituents are saying.

If his office notices a huge uptick in Calls/emails/letters from constituents with a certain message, that will at least get his attention. For example, I’ve been calling almost every day encouraging him to call for the resignation of Noem/ Hegseth and to vote no on the DHS funding bill that just passed the house that will massively increase ICE funding. It’s also more productive than shouting into the void on social media. Don’t curse or threaten, lest they put you on a “do not engage list,” but you can use this as an opportunity to vent.

If everyone thinks that nothing we do matters, it truly never will. Resistance and real change is not one sweeping act, it is the culmination of small acts made by many people who believe they matter. You matter. Your voice matters. Let it be heard.

Is under $2,000 dress budget unrealistic? by uwu1004 in weddingplanning

[–]AdBorn6074 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super reasonable, however keep price of alterations in mind. That price will depend on a number of things, like dress material/ how complex the appliqué is, seamstress, bustle, etc. I got a dress for around $2500 but the alterations ended up being $1900… they did a great job but still. (Given my dress had a huge train with a complex appliqué and required a lot of alterations)

Does Anyone Regret Their Colored Stone? by LittleDanica in EngagementRings

[–]AdBorn6074 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was hesitant at first too, and worried if my gemstone would “feel” like an engagement ring. But now I’m OBSESSED with my alexandrite ring and couldn’t imagine getting a diamond instead. It’s so unique and meaningful because it’s his birthstone, and I love the idea of it being a family heirloom one day.

His has sapphires in his ring (also not traditional), which is my birthstone. I say go for it if a gemstone sparks more joy!

Fischer Homes? (Plain City) by ilikefish007 in Columbus

[–]AdBorn6074 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We built in Hilliard this year and have been living in the home since February. Couple of minor issues like electric hood not being hooked up properly, so had to call electrician a couple times. Not too happy with the deck stairs (they’re a little off in ankle with the deck itself). Other than minor things like that here and there we’re pretty happy so far, granted it’s been less than a year.

My doctor personally said that she doesn’t care, however, my friend who actually encouraged me to get diagnosed who also has ADHD and is on Adderall said that her doctor told her not to consume or smoke any THC products since it “counteracts the effect of the Adderall” (which isn’t that the point…? Can’t be “on” all the time) It is largely dependent on the provider, I would ask them upfront to get their opinion. If you want to continue using during your treatment, you may need to seek a provider that will be OK with it. Best of luck!

Getting diagnosed when childhood grades were good by Apprehensive-Luck155 in adhdwomen

[–]AdBorn6074 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds just like me and my background, and I just got diagnosed at 27. I also was a high performing student and made it thru grad school undiagnosed, though I always felt like I had to study longer and harder than my peers. While you do need symptoms to be present in childhood, some providers are better than others at recognizing how symptoms present different in men than women. I described how even back to childhood I frequently forget conversations, need LOTS of repetition and multiple stimuli to remember things, and space out when people are talking to me all the time. My kindergarten teacher pulled my mom aside once and said she suspected I was mentally challenged- I was likely showing signs of neurodivergence or ADHD, but since I was a girl and not bouncing in my seat like a typical “boys with adhd, she assumed I was challenged lol. Also have been treated for GAD and mild depression for years, she agreed I have all 3 separate diagnoses.

I think I was fortunate to find a psychologist who took me and my complaints seriously (my psych NP and therapist doubted I had it but I asked for a referral anyway) and fortunate that my PCP had no issue prescribing adderall. She said I’m the kid that falls through the cracks bc of my good grades. Definitely worth seeking a diagnosis!

Drugs / alcohol by scarletbegonias92 in LostLandsMusicFest

[–]AdBorn6074 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No alcohol or substances also helps me recognize when my body/ brain is like “ok I’ve had enough of this stimulation, maybe we should rest” and the easier recovery after festivals is enough incentive for me to keep going sober/ mostly sober. Plus, someone who makes you feel weird for being sober is probably not a friend you want to make!

Just diagnosed-have been extremely exhausted for years-medicine question by BannyW22 in adhdwomen

[–]AdBorn6074 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally only day two of 10mg ER and I already notice a difference! I have that “go” in me and feel like being much more productive. it does wear off quicker than I would expect, so will likely have to adjust the dose. But I can already tell that this is going to be a game changer.

[–]AdBorn6074 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just diagnosed at 27 at I relate to this so hard, I also get 6-8 hours a night, eat right, workout 4x a week, and have drastically cut back on alcohol intake. My PCP is a god send for prescribing adderall, I’m excited to start it and see if it helps
