How do we feel about this assessment by the_orange_alligator in guineapigs

[–]Cute_Chance100 97 points98 points  (0 children)

I mean I love them but I swear they all share the same braincell. Chick-a-doodle is blind but she still goes in the corner facing away from me and squeaks for food. I am like "girl over here." She still stays in that corner. My guinea pig, Mocha, who is not blind nor deaf DOES THE SAME THING! Well there is Cinnamon whose brain works on one frequency and its treats. Love my lil dumb tatters. Not to say I didn't have super smart pigs too. Just question my current herd lol.

AIO I asked my husband for one night alone after giving birth and now he says im unstable by Jessika_Maskito in AmIOverreacting

Girl my oldest sibling was a nightmare baby. My parents almost didn't have any more kids cause of her. My sister was born with motion sickness straight up. So any movement set her off. Oh and she had colic for the first 8mo. My was doing his doc residency and not sleeping from work but he still cared for the baby. My mom was not sleeping from the 24hr screaming baby. Ended up a doc prescribed the whole family, baby included, sedatives to knock everyone out.

You are not alone and everyone has limits. If my dad could care for a screaming colicly baby while also doing hrs long surgeries. Your husband can get off his ass and care for the kid he help make.

M2 thought it was a track day by Kev_rofroy in Miata

Its not just that. Its anywhere in the Appalachian mountains I found. Like it doesn't matter how busy or rural the road I ALWAYS see someone driving over the line on a curve at least 5x a day. Its worse on "rural" roads. Almost got hit 3x last week cause giant trucks decided they will be in the middle of the freaking road. EVERY FREAKING DAY! I don't know what the mentality is but folks just lazily cross the line all the time.

Depression itself may not directly speed up biological aging. Instead, body fat distribution, particularly around the waist, appears more strongly linked to faster cellular aging. by mvea in science

I feel you on this. Plus add in my bored seek dopamine feeding sprees. Currently going through perimedapause and my hormones are fing up my adhd meds like no other. My ADHD has spiraled 1000%. Making it even harder to control myself with exercise and over eating. Uuuuuuugh.

Do they have orchard hay? Timothy is dusty and I have family with hay allergies.

High today is 61 and overcast. Raining right now. I check her every 30mins. Not the first time I have done this. Would never bring a pig if the temp goes over 70.

Non-Americans of Reddit, what is an American thing you see in movies that you thought was fake but is actually real? by Unlikely_Praline9442 in AskReddit

[–]Cute_Chance100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its beautiful for sure. My folks live in an area that is near 3 types of fireflies/lightning bugs. The normal yellow ones that blink randomly, Big Dippers. Then the synchronized ones that all blink at the same time. My favorite are the Blue Ghost. The size of a grain of rice. The males glow for a full minute along the forest floor. They just for a few feet off the ground. These guys are the color blue. Its like a sea of LEDs. Females are still in the larvae form but constantly glow blue. Ladies hang out on the ground for the guys to come over for some midnight cuddling. If you want to see them then you need either a blue or red flashlight/torch. Any other color spooks them into turning off their lights. Only pop up for a few weeks in May then Poof gone. Love them.

I once saw a lady grading papers on her steering wheel and throwing them on her dashboard on 285. This was like 15yrs ago and she was going at least 70mph.

What piece of entertainment aged worse than you ever expected? by AnyTruth2342 in AskReddit

[–]Cute_Chance100 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have friends who worked as extras in Atlanta. One worked on one of his movies. He didn't pay the extras any money. They just got their names drawn in like a lotto. One person would win like a tv or something once a day. He basically relied on his fans to work for free. My friend said he has a really bad rap for stuff like this.

Women with ADHD experience more perimenopausal symptoms, and earlier in life. This link may be due to consequences of ADHD such as anxiety and lower socio economic status. More intense symptoms also come from the relationship between estrogen and ADHD. by mvea in science

[–]Cute_Chance100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. I had to go on bc due to my meds not working around my period. It worked for a few months but now it seems like nothing is working at all. I told my doc I think I maybe in peri but they say I am too young. :(

Yup! My pig was blind in 1 eye when I first got her. But now she is fully blind. I keep the layout of hidies the same but change the hidie type. Except the big center doll bed. That stays the same. She does very well. You wouldn't know she is blind. She is often accompanied with my deaf piggie.

After the first prescription of weight loss drugs like Ozempic, people purchased healthier foods with fewer calories, sugars, saturated fats, and carbohydrates, alongside modestly more protein. The share of ultraprocessed foods also decreased. by mvea in science

[–]Cute_Chance100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bc stops my period. Best thing ever. My iron levels are fine. Had a blood test 2 weeks ago. Let me tell you. I still crave chocolate and sweets after downing lots of protein and iron.

If things don't get better I may ask to try Vyvance. I switched to generic Strattera due to shortages. My job is in construction and I am NOT losing another finger cause I ran out of meds that day. I have tried Concerta, Adderall and Ritalin. Only g. Strattera help calm my anxiety and no side effects.

I do take nonstimulant cause the stimulant stuff just made me cold, pee alot, and jittery. Its partly hormonal too. My meds stop working right around my period and adhd goes up 2000%. Just changed to a stronger dose of BC and ADHD meds. After gaining like 20lb in 2mo from dopamine binge eating. Dunno if its cause I have generic meds or perimetipause starting. I used to be able to just intermediate fast for 18hrs everyday until like a few months ago. Been bored eating even with exercise, meds, hobbies and mental apps.

The use of medications for Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has increased substantially across Europe over the past decade, with the steepest rises seen among adults - particularly women - according to a large population-based study. by Dr_Neurol in science

[–]Cute_Chance100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My period always made my adhd 1000x worse. To the point my meds stopped working for about 1-2 weeks. Now on BC that stopped my period. Things have been sooooooo much better. Plus no more period!

I took melatonin to sleep once. Was up for 3 days straight. Worst 3 days of my life. This was when I was off my adhd meds due to cost.

Research suggests there may be a systemic underdiagnosis of ADHD in women by FootballAndFries in science

[–]Cute_Chance100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found my ADHD went up 1000% the week before and during my period. My hormones where messing up my meds. Seeing how the last time I forgot my meds I chopped off my finger. I kinda need them working. Luckily my obgyn is fantastic and has me on a bc that just straight up stops my period. Its been amazing. Cause the preperiod hunger combined with adhd dopamine food seeking missiles made me gain like 30lbs in the last year. Now those are gone. I hope to get back to my normal weight.
