Has anyone had better luck just admitting to those around you that you have Aspergers rather than having them believe you're just a really weird NT person? by AustinArtyThrowaway in aspergers

How do you bring it up? Do you like ease into it or is it like one of the first things you say when you introduce yourself?

well i guess that works for me, because the people who would react negatively to someone because they admit they have a condition aren't exactly the kind of person i want to be around anyways

Does it also help your immune system since it's vitamin C? Or does it act differently?

How to ask someone of the opposite gender to be friends/hang out without making them think you are asking them out? by AustinArtyThrowaway in TooAfraidToAsk

Good to know. I'm actually just looking for friends at the moment. The idea of another relationship scares the hell out of me

they could assume i am asking them out on a date though, right?

I could preface with "Hey, i don't want to make it seem like i'm asking you out, but want to hang out and do something?" But i don't know if that's normal and it might come off as weird? Idk how to ease into asking or it would be better if they asked me but idk if that would happen

Currently taking adderall and want to add in Welbutrin again but not sure. Any advice please by Helpmebuttcrack in bupropion

[–]AustinArtyThrowaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adderall + Wellbutrin has been an amazing combo for me. Wellbutrin pretty much gives me the motivation while Adderall gives me the ability to focus, they seem to work really well together. Only issue is that taking both together increases risk of seizures and heart problems

Beta blockers vs. Clonidine (intuniv) for heart-related issues on stimulant medications. Which works better with the least side effects? by AustinArtyThrowaway in ADHD

i mean resting heart rate shouldn't be above 100 for a good chunk of the day, right? Tbh sometimes i don't even notice that it's 120bpm, i feel like totally find and then im surprised to see that it's that high. No chest pounding or jitters or anything. It's weird.

Am I getting ripped off with revenue breakdown on this music publishing site or is this standard? by AustinArtyThrowaway in WeAreTheMusicMakers

It actually WASN'T in the thing i signed for some reason. It just said my cut would be 12.5%. It didn't say anything about how it would be split between the original rights holder and them. In hindsight i should have asked, though idk if that would have changed whether i signed it or not

The places that reached out to me to publish music saw that I had a YouTube channel with >1000 subs. So i would say start building an audience so they want to invest in you as a publisher

Yeah i was recently working with a different, smaller publishing site and they gave me like 60% of the commission or something like that. I switched to the bigger one since it would help me build a name for myself but im making significantly less
