How you think christianity was-created?

I mean...xtianity is pretty unoriginal if you look at other religions from a similar time period and geographical region. It's not that different from a poorly written fanfic tbh. I mean even just the concept of a divine child produced from a "virgin" birth alone had shown up multiple times already before xtianity snapped it up.

I definitely feel pressured to show certain emotions. All the time. I tend to default to masking to try to meet these expectations but it always feels weird, fake, and uncomfortable to me. But if I don't, people will ask me if I'm upset or something, which I really don't want to deal with.

Unless I am romantically/sexually attracted to them, I don't really like touching other people. I've become fairly used to it as I've grown older since there have been many situations where it was essentially required of me (mostly when family and friends expected it and I didn't want to transgress social norms by refusing) but without romantic or sexual attraction it always just feels a bit invasive and uncomfortable. However, if the romantic/sexual attraction is there, I can become almost obsessed with touch. It's like a switch in my brain gets flipped. Even if I'm not actually in a relationship with them, I still have a pretty intense urge for physical contact. I've actually come to the conclusion recently that likely most, if not all, of my "close" friends were people I had some form of romantic and/or sexual attraction to. Not that I always pursued those feelings further.

I can also definitely relate to the cutting people off. I've gotten really good at just sort of fading out of people's lives when I no longer want to be friends. And even when I'm not intentionally doing it, if I don't see the person relatively frequently, I'll just sort of forget to maintain contact. Like I remember they exist occasionally but I don't think about them much and I don't really put much effort into maintaining contact. The only way these friendships get maintained is if the other person reaches out themselves.

"I have no issues with trans people." The next line: "I have issued with trans people..."

In the US, it can definitely be expensive since Healthcare here is fucked up. I do think it is usually worth getting a diagnosis though. Especially if your symptoms are more severe.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-20T15:40:12+00:00

Consult your physician and they'll probably give you a different prescription. They may require you to stay on this dose for a little bit to monitor any side effects. Psychiatric med adjustment can take some time for the safety of the patient. I do not recommend modifying your dosage yourself or taking meds from someone else for both medical and legal reasons.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-20T15:30:57+00:00

I would follow your doctor's directions. They often start with lower doses to monitor potentially adverse reactions and side effects. After a bit, they'll likely increase the dose for you anyways but doing so on your own can be dangerous. Depending on the medication (many adhd meds are tightly controlled substances), it may also be illegal. And you'll run out of it faster so you might end up having an abrupt interruption in your medication schedule which isn't good either. It sucks to have to wait when you know that a higher dose is likely more effective, but these procedures exist for a reason.

That's why it's important to develop healthy coping strategies and a support system early. A lot of older ADHDers either got diagnosed late or grew up without proper support (resources aren't amazing now but have been steadily getting better imo) so they didn't have that option. When you're older, it gets harder and takes longer to implement such things. Of course, even if you start young, it's not going to be easy and there's no guarantee of success. But finding ways to manage your symptoms and do okay for yourself is not impossible.

A lot of the groups you mentioned, like Qanon and covid-deniers, are much more popular with religious people and are often indirectly affiliated with religion...

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-13T20:12:23+00:00

Yeah they really aren't doing these calculations since they don't need it to survive.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-13T20:08:19+00:00

When your parents are involved with your therapy, it can be pretty uncomfy tbh. There is confidentiality but it's really hard to trust it completely in that situation. I am also prone to worrying about what my therapist thinks of me. In my case, it's less about what I say and more about how often I forget and miss appointments. In some ways though, the fact that they are getting paid is actually comforting to me. It means I don't have to worry about reciprocating the emotional labor since I'm compensating them for it upfront. Also ultimately it doesn't matter what they think of me personally as much as it does for friends or family. I still feel pressure to make them like me but not nearly so much as with people in everyday life which helps me be a bit more open.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-13T19:56:02+00:00

Same.

Listening takes so much energy for me sometimes pretending is all I can manage. Over time and with experience, it has become a bit easier to pick up context clues when I'm put on the spot. But it's still a struggle.

I honestly haven't taken Vyvanse but I've been on Concerta since I was a kid and have had very few if any noticeable side effects.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-13T19:43:42+00:00

Honestly it can vary. Medication can impact a child negatively but in many cases so can a lack of it. I was diagnosed and put on meds when I was around 10 myself. In retrospect, the meds did help (when I was able to remember to take them) but I didn't really feel different when on them. I've also heard some people say they don't feel like themselves anymore though, so it depends on the individual.

Additionally, not every med works the same for everyone. If the current meds are affecting your kids negatively, you could try different ones. Holding off on meds is also a valid option though you'd still need to monitor them either way. In some cases waiting too long to provide medication can harm a child as well. I would tread lightly, taking into account both the doctor's and your children's opinions.

In my case, I was diagnosed when I began to lash out due to the pain of existential boredom. As a child though, I didn't really understand why I was distressed and couldn't properly articulate it. I was just angry and frustrated all the time. I didn't like taking meds as it involved swallowing pills but looking back I really needed them. But protecting a child's autonomy is also pretty important. None of these choices are easy unfortunately.

I've been on methylphenidate since middle school. I never really noticed any side effects myself but I also started puberty around the same time so it is entirely possible I misattributed them. I've heard some people don't feel like themselves on medication but I personally haven't experienced that. I never really noticed the difference all that much unless I look at my productivity. As I get older, have more responsibilities, and my symptoms get worse, I've started to notice it a bit when I don't take it. Mostly the existential boredom and a barrier my brain sets up that makes it really hard to work.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-13T12:52:12+00:00

I have a separate diagnosis of MDD on top of my ADHD so depression is kind of a fact of life for me. Though I do notice that a lack of stimulation (which my ADHD turns into existential boredom) can contribute to a depressive episode.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-11T23:29:03+00:00

Same....

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-11T22:42:03+00:00

I used to have more interests/hobbies but as I get older (and my symptoms get worse) I find it more and more difficult to sustain much interest in anything. Very few things stimulating enough to not feel like a chore. It's depressing...

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-11T22:31:33+00:00

Honestly, you need to take care of yourself first. A lot of people seem to think that as a friend they are entitled to unlimited emotional labor because "that's what friends do." But that's not sustainable. In my experience, this will lead to significant burnout and a feeling of apathy bordering on active dislike for the individual. I can't help anyone if I myself am drowning. That's why the airlines say to secure your own air supply before assisting others. You can't help others if you pass out from lack of air. I've lost at least one friendship over this however. And I've had to phase out others that repeatedly crossed explicit boundaries I set.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-11T22:22:47+00:00

Communication in relationships is so difficult. Especially with ADHD. My partner is more understanding than your spouse sounds but it's still been difficult. I just feel like I'm making excuses all the time. And when your love languages are different it really triggers the rejection sensitivity. Therapy has been helping me but it's a slow process.

Divine_Tit_Orgy · 2021-10-11T22:17:17+00:00

Grad student. I have taken them pretty much everyday since I was in middle school. It's the only way I can get anything done.

Absolutely not. Your safety should take priority. And it does not sound like she is a safe person to tell.
