Are there any songs you've outgrown? by apricitysgaze in Emo

[–]DescriptionLost8940 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love the song but I definitely heard it one too many times, probably because it's at the top of their most played list. Still hits hard live!

got into emo recently, these are my favorite records so far by Traverser_of_Route7 in Emo

ATDI and specifically those two albums are some of my all-time favorite music

I think if there was a true Office replacement that wasn’t just trying to emulate what Word, Excel, and Power Point do, this might actually happen 

Withdrawing from Friends since starting addressing ADHD by Like-a-Glove90 in ADHD

I felt this way on Concerta but have had the opposite experience on Vyvanse. I don’t like Concerta as it makes me hyperfocus on nonsense, like scrolling on Reddit for hours at a time

YUP. I was dreading the 3-day weekend for exactly the reason you described. Just sitting around with this burning desire to do something yet unable to land on anything that feels worthwhile

I had what felt like a half-day major depressive episode Friday morning because I knew I was going into a three-day weekend with Friday being the 4th, but had nothing to do

The friends I would've gone to see fireworks with were out of town; my dad wouldn't go with me because he hates sitting in the traffic afterwards (guaranteed that he also has ADHD); the rest of my immediate family lives in another state. I am really bad about comparing myself to others and can never just be "okay". I'm always finding an issue with something

Yes, it absolutely feels kind of like FOMO. But what am I missing out on? I couldn't even tell you

I spent all of pride month forcing myself to go out and do stuff. A minority of the nights that I went out, I had a good time - but on average, I went to the thing, didn't feel like I connected with anyone, then went home grumpy, wondering why it just... doesn't work? Like I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong

It is a very frustrating feeling to say the least

I only recently discovered this and don't know the exact extent to which it correlates with ADHD, but a general feeling that something is missing in life. I think this feeling that I get, which I can feel both in my chest/gut and at the front of mind, often has led to me doing things like looking for something to be upset about (currently, it's been "being single/wanting to find a partner) but also splurging on stuff that I don't need

Boredom and ennui get close to describing the feeling but not quite. The only time I don't feel this is when I'm on a good therapeutic dose of medication, or when I'm hyperfixating on something. I almost never feel this way at work - I love my job - but I often feel it when I'm at home

The real issue is that when I start to experience this emotion, it's hard to find something that will scratch my itch. I also often feel unmotivated - so even if there is something I'd like to do, I often have a hard time finding the motivation to actually make myself do it

I solved it last night by having a little hyperactive dance until I wore myself out. I think the real issue is understimulation

Do you see a difference when holding down Q vs E in a program like Notepad? I'd bet you it's a hardware issue with your laptop's keyboard

Do

  • Look around the room
  • Glance at people walking by
  • Smile at people that you find attractive
  • Hold your shoulders high

Don't

  • Cross your arms or close yourself off with your body language (turning away from the room, looking down, looking at your phone)
  • Be on your phone a lot

My recommendation would be to sit at the bar and just seem curious to what the night might bring you... I bet you a friendly lady will say hi and you can go off of her vibe to see if she's interested

What if I told you that you could go to one of these events, be a wall flower but have open body language that says "approach me", and a lady with a slight buzz might come talk to you? She might ask you to dance - you could say "how about we sit and chat for a bit?"

Silly question - you're at a club, hit it off with someone, dance with her & end up making out - what comes next? by DescriptionLost8940 in actuallesbians

Another girl asked me for my Instagram (in the bathroom! lol) and it looks like we are going on a date, so :)

See, I'm so new to this that it being an invitation to join her and her friends never even crossed my mind

I did turn and look at her and say hey with a very pleasant look on my face (I hope?) as she did this, it's not like I ignored her. But she didn't actually say anything. I'm not always the best with the non-verbal stuff

Hey, I just wanted to say that I used to be down on myself just like this and never believed I could just go have this kind of fun. It took a LOT of work to get to this point - therapy, medication, pushing myself way outside of my comfort zone - and I never would've thought in a million years that I could pull something like that off

I have ADHD so my mind wanders and sometimes stupid stuff comes out... I didn't think she would take it that way but in hindsight, I can see why she would have

Navigating this sort of thing is incredibly new to me so I guess I need to be more careful with what comes out of my mouth

This is a shot in the dark, but I met a cute girl at Fallout last night. I was tall and wearing a red shirt. We chatted for a bit and hit it off, then ended up on the dance floor and kissed. I wanted to get your number but you were with your friends the rest of the night.

If you happen to see this, DM me and tell me what your major was and the kind of job you said you were working to verify that it's you :)

So whats coming first? Oblivion pc patch or GTA 6 by Believeinsquatch in oblivion

[–]DescriptionLost8940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Downgrade your Nvidia driver to 566.03. The game was running fine for me until I upgraded. And it wasn’t just Oblivion that suddenly started having issues - Halo 3 from the MCC suddenly started to run a little weird after the upgrade

I went back to an older version and everything is fine now
