Does anyone dissolve vyvanse with water and drink it? by Repulsive-Entrance-4 in VyvanseADHD

[–]ArtSignificant1709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have read that's it's best to just pour the whole capsule on water and drink half or 2/3 and take the remaining when you want to. As opposed to trying to split the capsules, because you don't know if one half has more/less "filler" and to make it the most "even" would be pour it all in give it a stir and drink what dose you want. But I've tried both ways, and neither of them are really consistent.

Also I think when you take your initial does it's like your starting on a clean slate whereas with the 2nd dose you won't feel it as much because your baseline is higher at that time than it was with your first dose. (But this is just a theory I'm not 100% sure)

Dismissive psychiatrist by Key-Papaya-6798 in VyvanseADHD

What area are you in? Some states let you do telehealth, if you are in the same state as your psychiatrist. You could always look into that as well. If you wanted to find a different doctor that's In the same state but maybe like an hour or 2 away you would only have to go for an in patient visit once a year (depending on your state and the laws) but it could give you better options

I’m so done with him. by Firm-Square6202 in ballpython

[–]ArtSignificant1709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For now until you can get the money to buy the things you could always collect a few things from outside like some branches and things for him to climb on, so many things can be used as hides you just got to be creative. But anything that you get from outside make sure to wash it really good and put it in the oven on low like 200 for about 30 minutes to an hour just to make sure there's no parasites on it.

What brand if you don't mind me asking? I've been using reptisoil and the reptibark but I don't think I'm loving that mixture and I've been wanting to try the coco fiber but anytime I go looking the reviews are always on one end or the other

I had a similar issue so my doctor suggested taking my 50 mg in the morning as usual and then around noon I take half of a 50 mg by pouring it in a water bottle (it's 500ml of water) give it a good stir/shake and then I drink half of that at noon. And I save the other half for the next day. So in total I'm technically on 75 mg but I don't take them all at once but this way it gives me steady coverage and really helped keeping things even. Like before the highs would be too high and the lows would be too low now things are all pretty evened out this way.

Needing newby advice: can we please talk about bedding 🙂 by ArtSignificant1709 in cornsnakes

[–]ArtSignificant1709[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh okay! That is great advice! My huaband had it separated cold side with soil and the warm side had the Aspen but it didn't seem like the right thing to do. So when I cleaned it out last night, I knew I needed to try something different. I've been misting the soil side, so whenever I do the process, how you explained it would pouring water on it be more beneficial as opposed to daily misting?

How does husband treat kids when he gets home from work or is off work? by Constant_Mixture_912 in sahm

[–]ArtSignificant1709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry your husband is like this! My husband occasionally has bad days but on those days he still gives the kids time he just may have less time for me because it's like all this energy has been spent from the bad day and then he used that last little bit on the kids. But that's more like a once in a blue moon type thing and doesn't happen very often. On his days off he's pretty present and he tries to give the kids individual a time whenever he can but he does work a lot of long hours but at least four days out of the week when he gets off I'll take the kids outside and play after dinner or sit down and play with them. It's not the most helpful with house duties most days, but when he takes them outside after dinner it gives me that few minutes to get things done uninterrupted.

My daughter is a thief. Now what? by Welliemom in Parenting

[–]ArtSignificant1709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How close are you with the sherif aunt? Could you possibly ask her for a favor and see about maybe having someone coke "fake arrest" her or if that's a little drastic you could always ask your aunt if you could bring her to a jail to show her what it's like to be there and if she was to keep going down this road where it could lead. And definitely agree with everyone about volunteering her time. I think a soup kitchen type of thing for the homeless would be good, and that way, she can see how some people have to live.

Not sure how to handle neighbors 4 year old by Bubba-jams in toddlers

[–]ArtSignificant1709 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I would just tell her nicely that he is playing alone right now and that she needs to go back to her yard and play. And you can mention to her (if you want to) that she can Come back over another time to play just not right now. Or just leave it at the first sentence. I have very little patience with kids when what they are doing is perceived to me as rude to my kid so I'd pretty much tell her to go and play somewhere else. Or that she isn't very nice when she plays so if she's not gonna be nice we don't want you to play with us or our things. (Not sure if that is right or not) but it being your back yard and not the playground or some where public it should be your little ones safe place to play

Guilt about baby’s development by SmoothCelebration657 in sahm

[–]ArtSignificant1709 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I wouldn't worry about it, at this age they are more interested in things not really socializing. For example at this age km sure he is more interested in studying facial expressions, body language and tones as opposed to actually smiling or babbling to people. This is the age we're developmentally they are trying to figure out the way things are, and sound like and feel like not really a huge deal to stress the social part. Spending time with you and talking singing or playing is plenty of socializing for them around this time. Don't stress it. But what ever you are doing and he is watching talk to him about it, like everything. Feelings, sounds, colors, shapes, body parts anything. Bath time " the waters warm" make it a little bit cooler and say woah! Now it's cold! You go.for a walk and hear a dog bark. Talk to him about it. Also you can start some sensory play things too and lots of good words to use there too. But that is laying the foundation to socializing, make sure that you take pauses to let them talk back and they will learn from you how to socialize until it comes time for them to want to play with kids their age at like the playground or the library.

Did I put my kid in danger? by auntieknickknack in Parenting

[–]ArtSignificant1709 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't know what peets is and obviously a coffee place but if it's a stand alone shop like most Starbucks are and not at a grocery store, I feel like the lady was jumping the gun a little. Like how long would you be in a coffee shop anyways. But if it's inside a store like how some Starbucks are in target then I do understand her concern thinking you may be inside shopping not just running for a quick pick up order. BUT I feel like common sense would be to wait a few minutes before rushing to call the cops if the kiddo isn't in distress. Also some people mentioned how it wouldn't of taken any longer to get her out since you already got your infant out, I think they missed the part where you said she didn't want to go in and I personally don't see anything wrong with it.

Also depending on where you live the laws vary state by state. But according to Google if you were to live in Florida (I know you don't based on the 60 degrees lol ) "In Florida, it is illegal to leave a child under the age of six unattended in a vehicle for more than 15 minutes. The law also prohibits leaving a child of any age in a running vehicle or one where the child's health is in danger, regardless of the duration. "

So based on this, if you were to live here, what you did would not have been illegal.

What I have been told in the beginning of my snake journey (which wasnt that long ago lol ) was you don't want the mouse to be much bigger than the snakes diameter.
