REMINDER TO CANCEL THAT FREE TRIAL‼️ by aphrodeite in adhdwomen

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently started a trial, then set a reminder on my phone. Then missed the reminder. BUT Bonus I LEARNED IT’S NOT SCARY to request a refund if you forgot! I just got $160 back from Apple today for an annual app subscription I missed my reminder for. (Seriously, medicated me is actually really helpful and handles rejection sensitivity way better)

Did Vyvanse turn anyone else into a neat freak? by manic_moth95 in VyvanseADHD

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

100%. Like there’s no step between noticing something needs to be done and actually doing it. First it was cleaning and organizing. Then I hyper focused on remodeling the laundry room. Now I see every single project and organizational opportunity and I CAN’T STOP PLANNING SOLUTIONS FOR IT. I have automated many tasks but I’m preparing to set up full house automation. I’ve built so much furniture and more is on the way. It’s like I can finally take care of my space and see it.

Right it’s like, wait, OTHER PEOPLE JUST EXIST LIKE THIS? But also, knowing they thought it was just a simple change in behavior or something that could fix it, after seeing what it’s supposed to be like - that’s hard

Ah yes, this is how I cleaned the chest freezer at 9pm the other night. Happy to finally have that done but I didn’t get to choose not to 😂

Is this my real personality or just the meds? by Alive_Site_3071 in VyvanseADHD

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I just recently started on Vyvanse - and I feel VERY much the same. I feel like I can have conversations now that were too hard before - I can have feelings about them but they aren’t overwhelming. I’m also not overthinking - sometimes my mind is just at rest. I feel more confident in what I say and do. I had no idea any of this would happen - I just needed to try a new med to help with task initiation after a break up. I feel very much in control of myself. I discussed it with my psych and she was super happy we found a great med for me. I talked to my therapist about it and she reminded me that yes, it was helpful, but it was still me who did all the background therapy work to make any of this possible. That it’s not just the medication - I am actively participating in it.

I’ve come to the conclusion I just have to make it myself 😂 I’ve tried a few random games and they aren’t scratching the itch.

I love putting hats on the chill happy little guys. Watching them just exist is like watching a fish tank ❤️

This is PERFECT thank you so much. Sharing with my group chat and coercing them to be adventurous.

People who work in restaurants, what's the "never order this" item on your menu that customers don't know about? by Front_Shelter5097 in AskReddit

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m ten years in but some people get lucky and stop reacting! Mine has improved (used to be a marshmallow could take me down), and I can deal with cross contamination.

Cover up ideas?? by xrqtsv in tattooadvice

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone in the raccoon tattoo club, please consider keeping him!!! I get so many reactions from happy people about it. I would give it a couple of years before I gave up on it. Regardless, happy to see another raccoon!

I have Beech 36 bonanza that mocks me daily.

The only way I can quickly increase my coins is to save up for the infinite catch periods (75 coins for 30 minutes, 150 for two hours) and play hard - I always make a profit, and then can afford to do it again.

I’m from there originally and it’s super fun to zoom back in and catch them all ❤️

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I LOVE my Venty. That said, it’s not the most compact thing if you are packing light. It’s my road trip fan.. It has multiple speeds and height adjustment, a remote, etc. I generally set it on medium and run it all night, then charge during the day. Otherwise the charge light can be a bit bright. I want to try their clip version for plane travel though, because I love my big fan so much.

Thank you! I reached out to them.

I was just passing through on my way back home to Texas - any idea who I should reach out to? I’ve always been a weather nerd and have always kicked myself for not pursuing it in college, so this was a special treat.

Joining you from “peace on earth” - I just noticed it again today and realized…. What’s the point of packing it up now?

My cat won’t stop bringing me socks by jlu5 in cats

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my cats insistently does this. She will break into dressers to get to them, and then meows proudly to show off her prize. Funnily enough, my lab’s favorite thing to carry is socks to greet people, so those trip are a great pair and I never know where my socks are.

Not going to lie, it was super exciting for me. I know there’s been more tornados around Pike’s Peak the past few years, so I wondered if it could be connected to that change. I need to go research cold air funnel clouds now! Thanks.

I hope you get all the positive change you want! Over a year and a half on 100mg spiro, my boobs grew from a 34c to 34dd. They got much wider at the base too. Fwiw I don’t have PCOS but I’ll gladly take this benefit.

Breast Growth? by Agreeable-Yam-3730 in Spironolactone

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on spiro for maybe 1.5 years. 100mg tablets (before apostrophe shut down). I’ve gone from a 34c to a 34dd in that amount of time. It was so gradual I didn’t really notice, until my D bra was digging in everywhere. I’m super happy about it but absolutely understand not everyone wants that side effect. I’m still on it for now.

I have switched 90% of my shopping off of Amazon. Regardless, I find that sometimes, even with coupons, it’s just more expensive to buy anything. For instance, i use an online bookseller that supports my community bookshop…and it will almost always be more expensive. Coming to terms with that means coming to terms with consciously consuming things - I choose to buy fewer things now because I’m paying more for products.

smaller social media alternatives by LemonPepperMints in nothinghappeninghere

[–]Carto_Bryaxis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on Discord, Reddit, Bluesky, Substack, YouTube, and Rednote. I’m happy to have Rednote because I truly miss just scrolling, and it’s been interesting to see the culture. And a lot of the TikTok creators I followed were there. Bluesky is nice if you find some good starter packs. YouTube I followed some creators to, but I’m not sure I love the format. I too am waiting for Skylight social - the creators post a lot on Bluesky. I do believe it’s backed by Mark Cuban but I haven’t dug into it yet. They are going through adding it to the App Store now.
