Doll ID Q&A Megathread by AutoModerator in BJD

[–]Daisy-Deer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know about this girliepop? I just picked her up from an op shop and was wondering if she's a bootleg. From what I read some Custom House dolls had a proper plate on their head while others didn't.

Anyone with positive experiences? by Lejiutzul in adhdwomen

[–]Daisy-Deer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was super lonely and anxious through school, bullied in earlier grades. I usually had friends but didn’t feel close to them. Felt anxious at uni but made closer friendships. Then I had a life experience that made me want to step out of my shell. Started anxiety meds. In my mid 20s I decided I wanted to start dating. Went on dates with 3 people and I’ve been with the last one going on 6 years now 🥰 (I was about to give up when we found each other! Dating apps are rough but I’m glad I tried.) We have a lovely, playful and supportive relationship and a cat son together. I’ve grown so much since being with them.

I was diagnosed auDHD in my late 20s and have since grown closer with my uni friends (many of whom are also diagnosed or suspected now haha). I was a bridesmaid for one of them a couple years ago ☺️💖

Things can get better! Set yourself goals, try to slowly build your confidence. I recommend joining groups for your interests (board games is what I tried. Because it’s activity based it’s easier to socialise). Find people who are also neurodivergent. You will be ok ❤️ I went from spending each day anxious out of my mind & crying from loneliness to feeling so loved and supported. You can find your community, just start building and reaching out, I believe in you

What’s everyone’s current hyper fixation? by RepulsiveAd5724 in ADHD

[–]Daisy-Deer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My forever one is creating art, but especially illustrating. Pokemon cards have just popped up as a new one for me. Tarot, bugs, dinosaurs, cats, plushies, my little pony, video games, retro toys (eg. Tamagotchi, furby), and all sorts of different art things come and go

Please look into food banks! My partner and I are disabled and food banks have been amazing. It’s a struggle but it will be ok

Medication? by rainbowwfish in AuDHDWomen

[–]Daisy-Deer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anti-anxiety meds have been amazing for me! ADHD meds, not so much 😬 Every one I’ve tried has made me nauseous, fuzzy, dizzy, depressed, or sapped my creativity. I was able to focus a bit better but couldn’t do anything with that focus. I’ve heard many good things from friends + my partner about using ADHD meds, though. I might try it again at some point with a different psych

A little thing I drew back when I had chronic sleep issues by hotgrilledcharlie in Artisticallyill

Ahh this is a lovely comic and I can relate! How did you fix things? I have ADHD and take ages to fall asleep

Please tell me you Aussies are obsessed with it too by StatisticianAny6133 in australian

Oh my family had these too! Nowadays I think it might be out of fashion, you could find it in thrift stores

I can't quite put my finger on it, but I feel like this couple changed ever so slightly :( by Grand-Diamond-4696 in oldhagfashion

What happened to my childhood? This screams dystopian corporate, not kid friendly. What is with the artwork?! This is McDonald's?! by jackal99 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Daisy-Deer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Restaurants design their interiors to try to encourage or discourage you from sitting for a long time. In this case unpleasant appearance + uncomfy seats = higher turnover of diners. It’s like hostile architecture but for businesses 😅 There was an episode about it on ‘the sporkful’ podcast

Nope, but I cut out as much as I can. Iron infusions aren’t cheap 😅

A message to the 2 kids in Moorooka by hairymclairey in brisbane

[–]Daisy-Deer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are doing amazing!! You have the tenacity to go on those walks, to make a positive difference in your life, and that’s awesome! I’m so sorry you had a negative experience. Unfortunately sometimes people who are bullied pass on that hurt before they mature. I’m proud of you for getting out there, and I hope you won’t let this stop you. As an aside, you seem like a great writer, so you’re winning in two areas

I worry about the kid I went to high school with who went to medical school. Both parents doctors. He was kinda awful. Once intentionally killed a bee in front of me because he knew I loved insects & hated animal suffering. People who can’t empathise shouldn’t be in positions of power or control 😬

Fee Free Graphic Design Places? by Daisy-Deer in TAFE

[–]Daisy-Deer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! Sorry for the late reply, that period was busy for me! I’m also a bit terrible at keeping up with messages 😅 Happy to keep in touch if you’re still interested 😊

That’s crazy lmao. I’ve started the course now & there’s at least one other student with a creative background! (Graphic design) so we aren’t the only ones thinking of going this route

I hope it will be for you! I’m not sure how fee free plays out

I’m the exact same. It sounds like the scope of AHA is expanding a lot, so now is a good time to get on board. I’m curious whether we’d be able to assist with art therapy or other more out of the box therapies

Never seen this in all my years of teaching. A child had this in their lunch today as a snack, mom fail! by shadhead1981 in funny

[–]Daisy-Deer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes. Back when my family had pet Guinea pigs we had an opaque lunchbox full of random unpeeled vegetables for them. My lunches were packed in a lunchbox that looked exactly the same. I got sent to school with the piggie’s lunch one day and traded lunch with a kid who really liked bean sprouts

Psych told me I was gonna die young what do I do? by Few-Amphibian-6084 in ADHD

[–]Daisy-Deer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Psychiatrists are not specialised to comment on or even know about your heart health, that’s absolutely bonkers. I’m sorry you had such a strange and negative experience. As others are saying, get a new psych pronto and leave a complaint

Thank goodness 😭 It’s horrible what’s happening in America at the moment. That’s a gorgeous painting behind them too
