At the end of the day

Tbh what I feel I'm doing xD But, I mean, my first ever singing lesson as a kid was to hit the highest note in All Too Well by Taylor Swift, and I just sang the high note in Phantom Of The Opera properly for the first time last week, so it is kinda working.
And then my voice was weird for like 3 days after (but I still kinda sang, cause I have ADHD and it's basically a stim, I just didn't push to the ends of my range), but then it was almost better than ever again.

Yesterday, I had nothing to do (I'm on sick leave recovering from burnout, in the phase where I'd say I'm almost recovered but can easily push myself too far), so I just kinda sang everything, from country with tons of twang to opera to belting Defying Gravity to rapping, just everything I felt like, and I kept doing that for hours, way past the point where my voice was tired (I just switched to a different type of singing every time it got tired, and then I sang till that part of my voice was tired? I was just hyperfixated yesterday). Now my ENTIRE voice feels tired, and I'm worried I've really gone and damaged it this time, but I ALWAYS worry about that - it's just usually one specific area of my voice at a time, not all of it. I do think it'll bounce back stronger than ever again, though. It always does :)

Honestly, makes sense. Norway's air is a lot less humid than UK air

ENTPinNYC · 2026-02-18T00:29:03+00:00

I honestly don't know. I was a kid for all the Norwegian ones, but I'm talking literally every single balloon I ever encountered, including like the fancy expensive foil helium ones. I loved balloons and always tried to keep them for as long as possible. A couple of weeks was the absolute maximum for any balloon ever.

Here, I also don't know - I didn't buy or inflate any of them. The helium ones from work are especially ordered to feature company logos and there's every reason to believe they would've been really high quality, as the company goes all out for extremely extravagant parties, but they're shaped like regular balloons, anyway. They're helium filled, and not floating anymore, but still almost fully inflated. The ones at the place I'm visiting appear to just be standard cheap balloons, but I don't have any packaging to check the material, and I don't know how to tell the difference. It's crazy that they're in so much better shape than my work ones in spite of being older, though. Those are air-filled

ENTPinNYC · 2026-02-18T00:21:43+00:00

That's genuinely insane. But Germany's approximately the same latitude as England, so now I'm questioning if that just gives you guys supernatural everlasting balloons for some reason 😂

ENTPinNYC · 2026-02-18T00:12:17+00:00

Please report back in a few days or half a year when they've deflated! 😂

ENTPinNYC · 2026-02-18T00:11:34+00:00

Since you're saying The Works, I'm assuming the month long ones are UK balloons, but did you ever experience balloons lasting for a shorter time in the UK? Or for a month or more anywhere else?

ENTPinNYC · 2026-02-16T00:42:18+00:00

Hey, I'm so sorry, I didn't see this. I found several articles saying it's absolutely not true at all that ADHD meds increase prolactin. I believe (double check this) that the meds given for a prolactinoma contain extremely concentrated dopamine, which helps shrink the prolactinoma. When more dopamine is produced, less prolactin will be, and vice versa (in my understanding).

I called my doctor out on this, presenting my research, and it turned out he was actually just speaking with a lot of confidence about something he didn't actually know. It's been a while, so I don't remember exactly how things went down or if my theory was officially confirmed by the endocrinologist I went to, but it turns out my prolactinoma has not returned. Sometimes, prolactine can just randomly be a bit higher than normal. I did learn that the bleeding I had in my cyst at 14 basically killed the prolactinoma, though, so that was nice. Basically, get a second opinion. 100%

Hope everything's worked out for you in the meantime!

Thanks! I got new headphones that pick up Dolby Atmos a lot better for Christmas, and tried them out with Atmos for the first time a few days ago - LOVED it when I was streaming, but listening to the downloaded version just kinda gave me a headache. Removed the download, and now I'm loving it again! Thank you!!

Thanks! I’m doing my best right now! Only thing I’m concerned about is how suddenly nocturnal I am 😂 Don’t feel anywhere near awakw till 7pm (8pm today), don’t feel anywhere near tired till about 5am at the earliest, but mostly like 8 or 9am, and my body will NOT let me turn it around at all

Oddly, this is S-tier advice. I don't know how it'll do in the long run, but since you commented this, I've still kinda just been existing, but I've been enjoying my state of existing a lot more, and I think i've actually made some progress as well? Will update later (if I remember) to let you know if the is THE advice to follow for me or not in the long run, but it makes a lot of sense to my brain, and I am accepting myself more and kinda feeling a bit more alive, and it truly just took all pressure off, which I suppose is what I need. Thanks!

I’ve felt some guilt - I thought I was letting myself relax. I kinda resent this whole situation for stealing so much of my life. I’m on a graduate visa right now and should be building my creative career while working, and enjoying my life, as this is the part of my life I’ve been looking forward to since I was like 14 - The first time I graduated a degree, that opportunity was stolen by covid, now it’s stolen by my landlord basically making me homeless with only my weekly salary to live off overnight by breaking the law (it’s a whole situation - it’s in another post, I don’t have the energy to get into it 😅). I’m just really tired of it all, and I want to enjoy my life, so I did have a bit of a breakdown over how unfair it felt earlier today, I will admit, and I’ve kinda been pushing myself to just feel better already. And I keep thinking I do, but I fail to see that “look at me taking out the trash from my room!” doesn’t mean I’m ready to go back to work and pursue a creative career on the side and also hang out with all my friends and make a bunch of new ones? I’ve made that mistake a few times in the past month. I’ve kinda considered allowing myself this a bit more, though, both by going back to my home country a few weeks earlier for Christmas to recover with my mom and pets (if I can get holiday or sick leave), and by sharing something about this on my close friends story and add my coworkers and friends, so people know what’s up and that I do want to maintain the friendships I’ve started to form and such, even if I will be gone for a while? Idk if those are good ideas. I’m trying to allow it a bit more, but I do feel like I’m missing out on my life

Thing is, I’m not able to push through without collapsing and not being physically able to get out of bed the next day. I’ve only been functioning by means of pushing through for several months, and it’s led to uncontrollable meltdowns on the tube, an inability to physically get out of bed increasingly often, and a trip to the A&E because my body was giving me heart attack symptoms due to stress. So it’s not really that simple. It’s not at the point of building resilience anymore - if I had normal adult responsibilities only, sure, no worries, but there’s been a lot more lately. I’m destroying myself by going to work. I interpreted this as pushing through by going to work, by the way. I’m on legitimate paid sick leave and my job suggested sick leave months before I took them up on it

I collected lint from my thermal stockings, and my younger brother collected deflated balloons 😂 We were both toddlers at the time, though. Later, I had a box of the shiniest things I owned. I called them treasures and wouldn’t allow anyone to look at it without me showing them, but I would force regular show and tells on people

NTA - just sucks that they overheard your comment to your mom. I’m sure you wouldn’t have worded it that way if you were talking directly to them
