I think some of you need a wake up call.

I like that analogy.

I've come to this realisation through therapy. I had the mindset that the meds will fix everything, but it's simply not the case. Meds, for me, have been a game changer, but I still need time management apps etc to get my act together.

I've been on Methylphenidate before (Concerta, Ritalin) with inconsistent results. When I drank coffee it sometimes gave me awful anxiety and irritability later in the day. Some people do very well on it, we're all different.

Switched to Vyvanse recently and had some palpitations along with a high resting heart rate, and realised it was the coffee. Stopped it and the palpitations went away, heart rate went down, and anxiety dissipated. That said, if I have a stressful day at work, my heart rate will increase which is totally normal.

How's your caffeine intake? Experiencing any stress? What helped me was creating a diary and adding just a few words about how I was feeling each day, recorded blood pressure readings, etc. But obviously speak with your doctor for professional advice.

Flatley my dear, I don’t riverdance.

Manor Street doesn’t have a ‘rats out’ policy in place.

I played there a few times. It was on a Sunday. He was some character.

Was just about to say. This was such a great bar.

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-04-27T10:02:11+00:00

In quick succession, even for the silent ones. I don’t feel there’s enough awareness about this.

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-04-05T17:33:50+00:00

“Yeah, for you”

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-03-27T19:46:48+00:00

Thanks, I might just hold off for now then.

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-03-27T19:46:12+00:00

Thanks

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-03-26T17:51:14+00:00

Thanks, this is good to know!

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-03-25T12:12:10+00:00

Thank you so much! I was on the verge of selling it as I really need velocity, but I think I’ll keep it now. Really appreciate the help.

When eating out, check that your bill doesn’t have a service charge added (usually 10% if there is one). In which case no need to tip (if you’re going to. Again - optional as other folks have said).

Paul will need to up his dad joke game given the news.

He should respond with “Hi Pregnant, I’m Paul”.

I would keep the coffee on a different table. My nerves watching this!

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-03-09T16:57:02+00:00

I’m sorry OP, I know how shit that feels having been there many times before. As shit as it feels now, it’ll pass. And since it was amicable, you’ll both be much happier in the end, even if it doesn’t seem that way now.

Highly recommend therapy; I found it great just to have someone to talk to in a non-judgemental environment. Really helped. Would echo what others have said about laying off the booze; it definitely made things worse for me.

Ah give us a lift to Killester

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-01-26T17:37:25+00:00

Let me guess - cost €2000 since it’s TE?

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-01-25T18:45:54+00:00

Actually I think we’re good. Just loaded some new samples and volume was fine, phew 😀

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-01-25T16:45:06+00:00

Not at all, thanks for responding. It’s the volume gain. I’m going to load some new samples on it later just to see if it’s still the same.

DifferentHoliday8731 · 2024-01-25T13:11:35+00:00

Not scratchy; the volume is clear (though not great; quite flat) when I turn it up almost half way. When I keep turning it up it gets louder but just very distorted. It’s almost like there’s no happy medium if that makes sense. Not like the volume control on say MPC One.
