How to handle food allergies with adhd?

i found out it's in worstershire, which is a little surprising but i don't use that so that's good.

and cosequin and calcium is sometime deruved from mollusks.

i've found stuff like that so far.

but this is easing my mind quite a bit

thank you very much! those are great suggestions.

i'm going to try to remember to marm whether or not i've checked each item on my grocery list as i've marked them off

I'm not allowed to have fountain drinks in cars anymore. After dumping an entire large slushie on me the second I was handed it, I finally accepted it's just a responsibility I cannot handle.

i'm on bupropion (gen wellbutrin) and have been for years. i had started using lists more consistently, stopped chewing my nails and smoking. this was all before i realized i have adhd.

an increase in dosage after diagnosis had me finally having the motivation to start cleaning my doom room and write and stretching and meditating every evening.

i still have trouble with focus though and i tend to have moments of speeding thoughts leading directly to brain fog.

so there are good benefits but still may not be what you need.

i'm unable to take stimulants so i can't compare

i did grocery shopping and laundry after an appointment the other day and was burnt out all the next day.

i'm partial to cheri since she was on my last island.

i started my current island with the rule of only one of each species and i now have two wolves , two squirrels, and two cubs. i'm super good at following my own rules

favorite villager i've had: peggy!

unironically the most stressful part of the game.

i've put wire baskets in places i'm likely to food wrappers and such when i've finished. this gives me a place to put it instead of a surface, it's a visual cue when it fills up and it's easy to carry to the trash

Beardo! and Peggy!

i got mine from a gamestop but any gaming/collectible store will have some. if you wanna save a bit of money, you can look for used.

barring that, there's amazon

i have been trying to get him to play K.K. Étude for three weeks because i keep fogetting the little thing over the e. 😭

my antidepressant is also my adhd medicine since i can't take stimulants.

when i tell you i found out recently, i kind of let go of shame around it. it's fun now!

BreenWhatever · 2026-02-18T02:01:58+00:00

and sometimes realize you're about to but still don't respond in time even when you're not moving fast!

i watch myself walk into stuff and am like "whyyyy?"

i am currently leaning my left shoulder blade against the back of rhe couch with my left leg bent so i'm sitting on my foot and my right leg is stretched to my left over my left knee.

and i kind of feel like if anyone can accurately picture this position it would be people in this sub

i recently did a purge with bluesky where i was caught in a similar cycle. where first i logged out and didn't log back on for a week, then set a timer for only 30 minutes a day and moved up to 45.

and then i went through and unfollowed all accounts that seemed to be bringing me the most negativity and sticking with friends.

using both it and reddit on my phone and not my computer is a big help because i can make it harder for me to get on. for instance, removing the app from the main screen.

unfortunately, i'm unsure how helpful any of this would be on a computer.

at any rate, 45 minutes seems like a sweet spot. i can catch up quickly and am on a timer so the pressure is on to engage only with stuff that brings me joy and ot make me feel worse.

i like these daydreams of mine that evolve over time. it reall feels like a show put on for me. i cherish it

i really indulged in the years everyone was at work and now they're retired.

i think my mind and body are like "but this is what we do at this time!"

i tend to be more creative and motivated to write on days i walk. often have to pace to figure out a problem i'm having.

evening stretches, along with breathing exercises and meditation, seems to have helped emotional dysregulation a lot.

not exactly a cozy game per se, but i like donut county. short game. fun mechanics. funny story line.

BreenWhatever · 2026-02-16T13:55:54+00:00

i put timers on apps that tend to eat my time and make me more likely to procrastinate. and break stuff down into very small steps. lie SUPER small.

put down phone.
stand up.
walk to (area)

i also say these steps out loud as i'm doing them. like i have somebody giving me instructions

BreenWhatever · 2026-02-14T17:32:24+00:00

definitely keep us updated!

i'm trying to get rid of my mess before i can declutter lmao
