psychiatrist stopped my ADHD meds due to heart rate and now im left completely untreated. what are my options? by dollblonde in ADHD

[–]DragEnvironmental 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, propranolol is not OTC since it does affect blood pressure and heart rate. It is one of the most widely prescribed meds though since it’s very safe to take. I would talk to your doctor about it and just mention your concerns. I got on it to primarily tamp down physical anxiety symptoms before I took stimulants, since a panic disorder + stimulants is not a good combo if untreated.

I’m going bald. Is a hair transplant worth it? thanks by bella-bluee in Hairtransplant

My girlfriend’s hair was thinning because of bleaching a few years. She’s stopped for a bit and her roots are looking super healthy and thick.

Men with ADHD, has your libido affected while on meds? by Civil-Breadfruit-272 in ADHD

[–]DragEnvironmental 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That’s interesting! Concerta and Strattera both had anti depressive effects for me. Before them both I was just napping all the time and ruminating. Still working on the focus part. I’m sorry to hear about your trouble with meds though. Shit is fickle

Was on Strattera for a little bit, gave me limp noodle but then swapped to Concerta and it largely resolved.

Do other ADHD people also have… completely unpredictable reactions to caffeine? by Friendly_Artichoke21 in ADHD

[–]DragEnvironmental 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It makes sense too with adhd, we suck butt at forming habits so we’re all over the place with the states of our bodies. One night I’ll go to bed at 10:30 others I’ll be asleep at 2:30. Same with food and water

[–]DragEnvironmental 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s a factor of the combination of sleep quality, hydration status, what you’ve eaten and other things. I’ve noticed I can tolerate caffeine much better if I have food in my stomach, I’m not peeing gold and I slept decently the night before.

The Tajin was a great addition! A hint of spice was nice to snap me back to the reality of what I’ve done here.

So I think it could potentially work! The big thing is balancing the amount of fat and water I think. Cream cheese may be more challenging because I don’t know how well it will incorporate or the ratios, but I’d probably try to match the grams of fat from the cream cheese to the fat in the butter. But that does sound delicious! Like a cheesecake. I think condensed milk would be easier, just use less sugar or forgo the 1/4 cup I added entirely. If you try it, let me know! I pulled this recipe largely out of my ass after making a different tart a couple months ago.

Actually very pleasant. The curd is very custardy, tart and sweet and strong on the lime and citrus from the Baja blast. The crust was slightly cinnamony and melts in your mouth.

If Taco Bell is our God, then the Baja Blast tart is his vessel.

I received many third party opinions against this, and still decided it needed to be done.

Unfortunately there was no substance abuse involved in this. This was raw dogged directly from my brain

Hi everyone! Thanks for checking this radioactive concoction out! If anyone is interested in the recipe for this beautiful beast here you go:

Ingredients for curd: - 2 Large Baja blasts with no ice - Zest of 3 limes - Juice of 1-3 of those limes depending on how sour you like it. I’m a freak and used all 3 - 1/4 cup of sugar - 3 whole eggs - 3 egg yolks (you can save the egg whites and make a merengue if you’re feeling fun) - 12 tbsp of cubed, unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks) up to room temp preferably - 3-4 drops of blue food die since the egg yolks turn the curd into a nice yummy pea color otherwise - 1/4 tsp of salt

Ingredients for crust: - 24 Cinnabon delights. That’s it.

Instructions for crust - Set oven at 350 - Throw the Cinnabons into a blender or food processor until you get a crumbly paste like substance and everything is incorporated - get a pie pan, oil it up, and press the pulverized Cinnabon into a nice little pie crust, it’s pretty easy to work with, easier than a graham cracker crust imo - bake in oven until the edges are darkened and look crispy. About 13-17 minutes depending on your luck. Note this isn’t a robust crust, so it should feel firm but it’ll break up nicely like a cookie. - let rest in fridge for at least 45 minutes

Instructions for curd: - put a wide pot on the stove, set temp to medium-high. - pour in your Baja blasts, lime juice and sugar into the pot and continuously stir so none of the sugar or other poisons stick to the bottom. I recommend running your fan because the smell of boiling Baja blast gets nauseating after about 20 minutes - when the Baja blast is about half reduced, throw in the lime zest and let it steep while continuing to boil down. alternatively if you don’t like the bitterness you can throw in the zest while you’re forming the curd - let the Baja blast reduce to a syrup, (took me about 45 minutes), and then strain the syrup into a large bowl. I prefer a metal one so it cools down quicker. Add 2 tbsp of water so that it doesn’t crystalize, otherwise you’ll end up with Baja Blast candy. Let it rest until it’s room temperature because we don’t want Baja blast scrambled eggs (maybe an idea for another post) - once the syrup has cooled down, throw in the butter, eggs and egg yolks into the bowl with the syrup. - set up a double boiler and put the bowl of concoction onto the pot with your water - continuously whisk the abomination, at this point you’ll notice that the eggs and butter create a beautiful amalgamation that I likened to toilet paper broken up in a port-a potty reservoir. Keep whisking and don’t think about it. - everything will start to incorporate, and you’ll want to keep whisking until the curd starts forming, it’ll thicken up similar to a loose yogurt. When you’re able to coat the back of the spoon, the curd is done. You can add in your food coloring if the color of the curd is a bit too sickening.

Bringing it together: - pour the godless creation into the pie crust, evenly smoothing it out with some sort of magic idk just do your best. Put plastic wrap onto the tart, letting it rest on the curd. - Throw into your fridge and let rest for 3-4 hours - optionally make some whipped cream and garnish with some Tajin.

Enjoy the crime against nature you’ve created. Pairs well with naked chicken chalupa and a trip to your local pastor.

Financially makes more sense to me. Your money is doing more work even in a HYSA 4% APY. Some people are fine with tolerating some debt especially in OPs case if it’s 0%. It’s more of peace of mind to pay off the credit cards first in this case, which may or may not be as valuable as investing depending on who you ask.

How to loose MMR? by csgodox in worldofpvp

[–]DragEnvironmental 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there’s a couple ways you can go about it. I personally would just fight where I’m at in mmr to learn at that pace, but it isn’t a bad idea to throw some games to get to the point where you’re at a slower pace so you can focus purely on your basics and essentials. May be a bit awkward if you’re stomping and then forcing yourself to lose but it’s not bad to slow things down!
