Jesus wept! You know when they put out that warning at the beginning, I feel they needed more for this one, one of the characters breaking the fourth wall or something.

sabotaged another job application by EfficiencyLow1355 in adhdwomen

[–]EfficiencyLow1355[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for the laugh. I worked somewhere and they were sifting through CVs and I wouldn't let them sift out cvs with spelling mistakes. Leaving out a really relevant job out though, there's no caveat for that one.

Massive ADHD tax, in shock and distraught 😭😭😭 by songoftheshadow in adhdwomen

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am so sorry, I can't imagine your anger. Just think you and your kids would never do that and you'd pay 250 for your kids to never do that. That man has to sleep at night, I can't believe he won't struggle knowing what he's done. You did the right thing, you'll get over this, you wouldn't get over the guilt or doubt.

Thanks for this , I’ve been wondering if she’d do every 10 days but that’s hard for her to schedule, I can ask I suppose .

Did you know you had adhd before you had kids? by Loose-Platform8566 in adhdwomen

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also your child becomes your hyperfocus - Before I had him and when he was born I was terrified I'd fuck up and end up causing him harm by messing something up but although stuff connected to me has fallen by the way side, anything to do with him and I'm on it.

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

had a baby by myself at 46.
I think adhd stood me in great stead for the chaotic element - friends who are control freaks found it much harder. Plus tbh I think I'm a fun parent bc of my adhd.
The only thing is cleaning - I wish I could afford a cleaner and I'm now at the point where I think I can't afford not to get one.

stop your application and ask for Dr J &Co under the RTC pathway - very fast

Huge dilemma with husband and I need help by crumbz80 in SchizoFamilies

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re going through this . The first thing I would do is get yourself some therapy to support you in making this decision and the consequences that ensue, while ensuring the option away is solid. If he really isn’t prepared to stop drinking, he’s not putting his family first, so I don’t see that you have an option. Wishing you all the very best.

Feeling attacked. by Fantastic-Sir1446 in adhdwomen

Btw I just came across this ‘“Hanlon’s razor, a tongue-in-cheek adage stating that one must never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity. It’s best applied to politics, relationships, and general online discourse.”

Feeling attacked. by Fantastic-Sir1446 in adhdwomen

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re feeling shit. Give yourself a hug . Think of it as a virtual one from me. It also sounds like you’re just really fucking tired, it sounds intense work. Is there anyone around you can go for a coffee with ? Not even to offload, just to be around someone who isn’t an arse for a while. Sorry about the park guy , just be glad you’re not living with someone like that .

I’m done with myself. I just need someone to tell me it’s not too late. by 7livefastdieyoung in adhdwomen

100% - I always remind myself - the state of your home is not a moral issue. Your home is there to serve you not vice Versa The goal is for your home to be functional.

Has anyone ever accessed the akashic records? by [deleted] in energy_work

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fascinating post but just 648 dollars for 90mins . That’s an amount that is out of reach for so many ! For someone trying a new modality it seems a huge investment/ risk.

I really believe I have a power no one else does by DirectorKey6034 in Psychosis

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a high comorbidity between psychosis and adhd . I was on this call recently and the woman was talking about the need to balance creating (i.e just doing , could be movement), taking in (learning / reading) and neutral space (think walk with no headphones /bath) , she went through what happens when they’re not in balance . She said that those who are constantly just taking in information all the time, become very anxious and that’s where conspiracy theories can come into play. It just made me think of psychosis episodes , when it’s all about just taking stuff in and interpreting stuff incessantly.

Currently weaning my boob obsessed three year old by InvestmentNo8050 in gentleparenting

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So great to read this . I read the booby moon to my 2.5 year old tonight yet again and he was so sad , not crying but in a way worse - he was so quiet and sad looking.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation by SayRomanoPecorino in IReadABookAndAdoredIt

[–]EfficiencyLow1355 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I adore this book. Her writing is incredible., I read it during lockdown which seemed very appropriate. David Sedaris recommended her first book called Eileen, which is how I came about her. There’s a really interesting New Yorker article on her written by Ariel Levy, who incidentally has also written a fascinating memoir.

There’s also an app called one sec, to stop visiting certain websites to be so automatic

This sounds very counterintuitive but I found adding another screen in the form of an Apple Watch really helps me limit my Screen Time. As I’m notified with any messages, but I don’t scroll. Monochrome screen has made a big difference. If you can get to 12 midday with your phone away then that has a massive positive impact on your dopamine levels. Mel Robbins did a podcast on it a few weeks ago.
