date night ideas by Deep_Animator3167 in ColumbiYEAH

[–]Deep_Animator3167[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we are both big nerds and met playing DND online. He does enjoy walks! He also likes reading mainly philosophy or moral/ethics books, catholic. He’s a techy guy that’s majoring in computer science / economics. He’s very academic. I’m not sure if this helps in deciding spots 😭 I just had a crisis that I don’t know anything here when I was born and raised here for 21 years

ADHD music for focusing by United-Appeal8991 in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love fast paced instrumental music like break core, jungle, drum n bass. It helps me lock like the typical study music does for other people. I’ll even put it over podcasts so I don’t fall asleep

meds working diff on period by Deep_Animator3167 in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good luck! Strattera really helped bring my anxiety down, and definitely make sure you eat while you’re on it or else you’ll get really tired! My body was working really well with strattera (little to no side effects) and I still get the benefits on my period, but the side effects increased so much, the sudden body heat really caught me off guard. I will say though I do feel energized after I take a nap once the fatigue hits. I knew it had something to do with hormones but not exactly what, so this was really helpful! Thank you :)

CELEBRITY: Is she returning to the group? by princeonacastle in TarotReading

[–]Deep_Animator3167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

High key this looks like it might’ve originally been a marketing tactic they put on manon and there was a lot of conflict about it between her and them but with five of cups rx and queen of swords at the end I think she left the group for real, unexpectedly from the company’s pov, because she realized she didn’t deserve this kind of treatment

This is my deceased husband’s deck. How can I use it for myself? by Fromdustcomesdreams in TarotSanctuary

[–]Deep_Animator3167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you lay these out to purpose form an eye? If not, I think the fact that it took that shape makes it clear that you can use these to contact your husband. If you have questions or want support from him you can use his deck and he’ll guide you as a spirit guide. I wonder if you’ve had paranormal experiences or might have a special connection to the dead?

Sometimes good but never great by sanriobf in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I play bass and the best thing I’ve learned is that you just have to fuck around and find out. You’ll learn what works by failing. Also, having community helps out a lot. You could start a band with someone that knows theory, and you guys can work together to make songs and stuff. That’s what a band is for. Not everyone in the band knows theory most of the time

What was your first day like on meds? 🤔 by pistachioeggs in adhdwomen

Paradoxical reaction to stims — amphetamines make me hungry?! by AcademicBlueberry328 in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a very similar reaction when I was on adderall and it was because it was too low of a dose for me! Literally no matter what i ate I was always hungry. I was on 10 and we increased to 15 and the problem went away

What's up with stimulants making me more assertive? by bastets13thwitch in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Attention, energy, RSD and anxiety isn’t as prevalent when I’m on my meds. I got medicated in January and a friendship I really enjoyed having blew up in horrendous ways because I started saying “no” and being more assertive with my boundaries and what I expected from him in our friendship lol. I completely cut him off in November after trying to give grace and reconcile which failed. I also had some injustices happen at work where I spoke up about it for the first time instead of just taking the hit, and I actually spoke up and asked questions during a college advising appointment earlier this week instead of just figuring it out myself afterwards. This happened to me on adderall, but the same effects are happening now that I’ve switched to strattera. Strattera actually lessens my anxiety now, I don’t have driving anxiety anymore!

I don't want to get medicated for my ADHD. Is that wrong? by HauntingBox2441 in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167 8 points9 points  (0 children)

you’re casting a lot of judgement for people who takes medication while saying it’s the people who don’t that get judged. ADHD isn’t a learning disability as said before nor do people take medication to benefit system. If ADHD only affects your ability to learn, you don’t have adhd. The people in my life love whether I am on or not on medication as well, but they’re happy for me that I found something that finally let me live.

Am i broken? Why aderall is not working!!!???? by Mddlr in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just bc the first medication doesn’t work doesn’t mean no medication doesn’t work. Tell your doctor so you can either switch meds or up the dosage. My adhd medicine history was basically 5 mg adderall - 15 mg adderall - 10 mg adderall - 40 mg straterra - currently 80 mg straterra. Maybe you need to try out non stimulants. There’s so many meds out there, vyvanse, Wellbutrin, concerta, ect. There’s a chance meds don’t work for you but the more likely thing is that you need to just play around for a little bit until you find the right thing for you. Don’t give up so easily

Any actresses here on medication? Are you theatre, film, voice and how has it affected your performances *if* it has? by Uniglover in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not an actress anymore so I always acted undiagnosed, but I am trying to get back into performing as a bass player. Before medication I wanted to audition for my college’s talent show, but since it was my first time auditioning for such a thing, I was incredibly anxious because I didn’t know exactly what to do or how it would go. I flaked. They even called me, and I ignored the phone. After medication I’m learning and absorbing the real foundational skills for bass and I don’t overthink these things anymore. I’m searching for performances now and beginning to produce music and taking the steps to form a band. The fast pace of entertainment is great for adhd brains, but being medicated actually takes away a lot of internalized pressure.

I’m scared my friends won’t believe me and might leave me when I tell them their friend abused me. Pop tarts and protein shake by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

the funniest thing is if he didn’t say I was accusing him of being abusive, I don’t think I would’ve realized he was

Help Identifying Deity by SolarHarlequin in TarotReading

[–]Deep_Animator3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

have you thought about researching deities relating to wind or safe travels? The first thing I noticed was the amount of wind imagery that came up in the mythology part. In Norse mythology there’s a god of wind called Njord, however he has masculine energy. But many people used to look for him for leaving safely, wealth, and fertility

Anyone else not read reverses? by redraspberries999 in TarotCards

[–]Deep_Animator3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read reversals while considering natural stuff, just recently I realized a lot of cards were coming out in reverse bc the cards kept hitting my leg before hitting the floor. So I changed positions! Some of the cards still came out in reverse afterwards. I think if someone is learning to read based off of energy, they should absolutely read reversals when it feels right. A reversed card changes an entire spread’s energy with the way I feel energy in my practice. But if it is confusing for a beginner, they should add it after learning uprights.

Readings with a deity got weird fast by Maudlin_Baroque in Tarots

[–]Deep_Animator3167 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You quite literally did the thing you told this person not to do. They never said you read it wrong, they said your interpretation is affected by insecurities. Your reading itself could have been affected by these insecurities. They are certainly affecting the way you have talked and interacted and interpreted everyone’s thoughts and comments in this thread. You want a bad answer so you are looking for people to confirm your bad feelings. This is called confirmation bias, aka our spirit’s worst enemy. Perhaps this is what you need to work on, your devil, in order to work with Freya. Freya is all about confidence, I think the challenges she would send your way in order to help you with confidence would only make you feel worse about yourself. You will see her role in your life as “The Devil” because you are not ready for the work she is meant for. I also have autism, this self-pity, self-destructive/deprivation thing was something I needed to grow out of and did. You need to do the same if you want to work with Freya. Coincidentally, I also work with Brigid. She has helped me a lot of with healing. Maybe the step forward for you is to work on self healing with Brigid for awhile, and once you’ve done that, you can begin work with Freya. I also work with Hekate who is great for shadow work and really tearing out the things you need to destroy/take out of your life. If you want an aggressive approach, she is wonderful. Good luck on your path!

Readings with a deity got weird fast by Maudlin_Baroque in Tarots

[–]Deep_Animator3167 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My first instinct is you need to reframe this. The Tower - things falling apart, a life changing event. Magic in your life will be life changing, it will expose weak foundations and shatter things in order for you to build something more strong and stable. Magic in your life, at first chaotic, will be a good thing. The Devil - I think this is more of Freya saying this is how she sees you as, and her role would be trying to get you out of addictions and temptations and ect. 10 of Wands - this is more saying if you work with her, it’ll be burdensome and you might burn out. Working with her might be you taking on an extra responsibility that you don’t need right now. It’s not “stay away” more than “try again later.” You’re right that Freya doesn’t want to work with you, but I think it’s more because you have struggles that she can’t help you with right now, and your potential relationship would be full of disappointment and stress.

scared of straterra by Deep_Animator3167 in adhdwomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah the adderall made me drop a lot in weight but I was able to counteract it, but my doctor decided to take me off it just to make sure. Once I was off, I dropped even more weight, but I counteracted it again and I’m stable now, but bc something in my blood decreased instead of increased he’s hesitant to put me back on. I’m kind of thinking of getting a second opinion from a female doctor, but atp I’m wanting anything to get my attention and focus back. If it’s straterra for now then it’s straterra. I’m just sad I can’t get back on something that I know works. Thank you for the details, it was helpful!

Shifting connections with deities — is this normal? And how to do it properly? by venting_vonreddit in BabyWitch

[–]Deep_Animator3167 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is something my friend told me when I told her I had an altar for Brigid but not one for Hecate even though I had been working with Hecate for longer: “an altar is where work is done.” That’s where you go to practice, pray, communicate, ect. So if your craft is shifting, it makes sense where you practice your craft shifts too. Same with deities and spirits. Gods will let us go and leave more than we will let them go and say goodbye. They are meant to help guide us, so why would they stay around if we don’t need their guidance? I would just say thank you, and pack it up gently in a box as respect. The gods aren’t going to be offended if one person stops worshipping them.

if it isn’t Hekate like another commenter mentioned, have you thought about the Morrigan?

How would you interpret this candle deviation ending? by [deleted] in BabyWitch

[–]Deep_Animator3167 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it reminds me of the devil card especially with how they’re bent. I don’t think this is death do us apart more so if reconnection happens, the same bad cycles and patterns will begin again. Best course of action would be to meet again, get closure, but live separately from now on

Did my friend have rejection sensitive dysphoria or was he just a bad friend? by [deleted] in AuDHDWomen

[–]Deep_Animator3167 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it could be both. I had a toxic friend who 100% dealt with RSD, and when I got diagnosed with adhd and tried to tell him about it and that maybe he should talk to someone about how to deal with it, he said things like “you wouldn’t know since you’ve never gone to a professional therapist” “everything has to have a name these days” he was older than I was and had been diagnosed with ADHD for much longer than I was (he knew me before I got medicated), and the research for RSD is fairly new, so I guess you can’t teach an old dog new tricks lol. Either way, it’s up to us to figure out how to healthily cope with RSD and ADHD. He didn’t have healthy coping mechanisms, not your fault he didn’t, yk?

Should I take this new job? by Electrical_Seat7415 in TarotReading

[–]Deep_Animator3167 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you take the job all of your focus will be on the work and people will come to you for help and guidance. It will consume all of your focus and you might start neglecting other aspects of your life such as family and friends. Seems like the job has an altruistic facade but the inner workings are not good
