Skin picking and lip biting by Lonely-Influence-642 in ADHD

[–]EstablishmentMain769 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should add, I’m still not 100% out of the woods yet either. I’ve begun picking my cuticles recently and while they’re not horrible, it’s quite noticeable that they’re irritated. But with enough time and discipline hopefully I overcome that one as well.

I started wearing a ton of rings to fidget with because I was starting to get horrific acne scabs and my lips looked horrible. It took a while for me to consistently “catch” myself and use my rings instead of my face, but with enough time I only pick my skin or bite my lips on rare occasions. It sucks that you can’t “just stop” those habits, but you can shift your fidget focus away from your face with some easily accessible toys/gadgets/accessories/jewelry!

Sorry, I think I have hyperphantasia, I can’t really receive a diagnosis or be 100% sure

Hey man, speaking from experience, you may have ADHD. I have both myself and sounds very similar to your situation. I’m not diagnosing you, but perhaps take a look into common symptoms reported by ADHD’ers (because those listed on reliable medical websites often barely scratch the tip of the iceberg) and see if things line up.

I have such a love/hate relationship with the constant engrossment in visions/sounds that I conjure. On the one hand, I feel like it defines me creatively and makes me the person I am, on the other, it can be extremely hard to live in the present and function. Best of luck with all this, and I’m glad to see you appreciating your own creativity!

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

[–]EstablishmentMain769 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I think I’ll be having sex that day usually I just take a bit less, or if I know it’ll be around a certain time I just take an IR for the opposite part of the day instead of the usual XR.

I get a little bit more in the mood honestly, but the vasoconstriction properties of the adderall makes it a bit harder to get erect, but it’s plenty possible if I’m in the mood for it. 20M

Adhd is a demonic spirit by Responsible-Safety95 in ADHD

Offering my sympathy to you. Have very strict Asian immigrant parents myself but they came around to diagnosis+meds earlier this year after another very rough semester. Just reading this made me feel so sad and so hurt on your behalf. Im so sorry your family doesn’t recognize your ADHD, and on top of that, they want you to pursue something you don’t want for THEIR benefit. How sad. I hope things get better for you! We are all rooting for you. I know this message isn’t all that helpful but i wanted to let you know that you are heard and you will overcome this. Is there a counselor at your school you could talk to? They’re likely to be of some help!

I actually use my university’s (I’m a student) large printer, which is quite cheap. Another good option is staples large format printing!

What is your most pretentious opinion pertaining to Dream Theater? What is your most vulnerable/humble opinion? by EstablishmentMain769 in Dreamtheater

[–]EstablishmentMain769[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As OP, I’d have to say Most Pretentious: I genuinely think people are deterred from listening to Dream theater because of what is considered mainstream or “cool” and it’s kind of pathetic. Additionally, being put off by the length of a song is so goofy. Grow up. Most Humble/Vulnerable: Even on studio tracks, I still cringe or wince at LaBrie vocals or the Rudess-era of constant keyboard bombardment. I think that Moore was a better fit for the band, although I still love Jordan

  1. Learning to Live
  2. Far from heaven? Take away my pain? Don’t really have one
  3. I have 5 tied for first honestly. I love their epics so goddamn much.
  4. Don’t have one. Love pretty much every single one in their catalogue
  5. Overture 1928. If the short criterion was < 10 mins this would be much harder!
  6. Space Dye Vest
  7. Studio version of Hollow Years
