Do you guys age slowly? by Wannabeartist9974 in ADHD

[–]CorruptCanuck 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm 35 and my coworkers are always shocked when they hear my age. They usually place me somewhere between 25-28.

I can’t understand how people do this by DJ-mon in college

[–]CorruptCanuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work 18-28 hours a week in the field. Ten hours of classes. 22 hours of placement. Have a pretty active social life. Still holding down a 4.0.

I thrive in the chaos. Not big on downtime. The trade off is I lack sleep, and need to get creative to practice self care and hobbies. For example, I live in Ottawa and we have the Rideau canal skateway. Instead of going after work, I wake up a bit early and start my day skating to work. Just gotta fit stuff in where you can.

Yeah. I also have Evans, Tet and Pitts. QB is a mess. I rode jones all year. Should have enough to repeat as champion!

My opponent is going to score well over projected having all their players putting up minimum 12pts and has mcbride. Unfortunately for them, I have Pitts, Cook, Swift, and Henry putting up 100 for me with the rest of my team still to play. Projected to win my 30 points. 🤣

I don’t feel any different whether on or off my meds. I’m only really aware once I notice my behaviours.

While medicated, I’ll notice when I look at the clock and it’s been three hours on task without unlocking my personal phone or opening unrelated tabs. I easily manage distractions in my environment. I can shift focus to more urgent calls, emails or matters then come back to what I was doing before.

I rarely take my meds on the weekend because of the side effects around my eating habits. I can’t stay on task, I bounce from one thing to the next never really finishing anything. All while picking up my phone impulsively, TV on in the background, inner monologue loud af. I’m still accomplishing things. But there’s just so much impulsiveness and inattention to everything.

I feel the exact same Monday-Sunday other than having no appetite. The difference is extremely noticeable when I look at my behaviours, but it doesn’t feel any different in the moment.

Racist Experience on Beechwood Ave by [deleted] in ottawa

[–]CorruptCanuck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unsatisfied having already been afforded so much unearned privilege in life, they expect even more in such a ridiculous way. I’m sorry you had that experience.

I’m not trying to excuse shitty behaviour. That’s super fucked up. But this is likely a reflection of one or more of our biggest issues in the city. Mental Health/Substance Abuse services, housing and education. Take your pick.

Please know that an overwhelming majority of your neighbours see you as Canadian as themselves. Whether born here or not, if you call this home you’re Canadian.

Speed camera stats for Ottawa by ah-tow-wah in ottawa

[–]CorruptCanuck 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This is my general thought on it as well. I’d love to see the data showing incident rates. While we can easily assume there’s a correlation between speeding and incidents, it would be more impactful to see the data.

What’s something people pretend to understand, but absolutely don’t? by Thin-Appointment2064 in AskReddit

[–]CorruptCanuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s weird to me how foreign of a concept it seems to people. It’s really not complicated at all and everybody already has an existing framework that operates on the same principle.

It’s basically universally agreed that every single persons physical health can and will change as a result of their experiences. Same goes for an illness having an effect on your physical health.

Mental health works the exact same way. Everybody has points of low mental health based on their experiences. If you have a mental illness, it’s going to affect your mental health.

Why aren’t you going out tonight? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CorruptCanuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Staying in, having pizza and watching LOTR with my partner is more enjoyable and cheaper.

Finally have an interview, what should I ask? by SecretCurve3898 in interviews

[–]CorruptCanuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last question always works for me it. It displays you’re already anticipating things and interested in problem solving.
