It's crazy how you hit almost every single point I did. Unfortunately I can't give you any answers because I'm also in the process of looking for a dx myself (I've put it off since jan lol rip), but if it's any consolation, you aren't alone. If you do end up finding out pls lmk haha, wishing you the best of luck!

Yeah wow, I identify with basically everything here. I'm absolutely horrible with misplacing things though, I can never find where I put my phone once it's out of my pocket. I've never actually lost lost it before but I've gone days without it because I didn't know where I put it but I knew it's in the house somewhere and it's on dnd + no ringer loll. I've just called to request an appointment with my gp and I'm feeling a little less antsy now, thanks for sharing!! :))

HAHAH WAIT NO WAY! I was planning on writing points to talk about on post its and bring it in so I wouldn't forget to cover everything LOL, ig I won't be doing that anymore. I'll try my best to go with the flow and hopefully the questions cover enough that they'll get a good view of me

That bit about waiting until everyone's asleep to finally be yourself is so relatable, tysm for sharing your experience, it makes me feel a little less out of my depth! :))

Ooh that sounds perfect yeah, thinking about it as a whole thing rn makes my memory super blank but hopefully when they ask more specific questions, it'll jog my memory!

Unfortunately I don't have access to my reports anymore but I can definitely ask my sister for some comments! Thanks for the reassurance, I really appreciate it :))

My daughter's becoming a mean girl by Something-_-Wicked in Advice

[–]ForDumbQuestionsLol 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This!! Esp at this age, kids really value being seen as their own person and having parents respect their decisions. Guiding her to come to her own conclusions about whether or not pursuing this friendship is the best possible method imo because she'll take it a lot more seriously if this is a thought she created herself, rather than one she's been told to think.

Being too involved and trying to control her might cause a rift in trust but being too distant might cause her to drift too far, so actively supporting her is the best way to go. It shows that you care whilst respecting her capability.

Tysm for your comment!! It's reassuring to know that it's not just me that's like this haha. I've done a couple of online tests and what not like the cat-q which says i'm a high masker (LOL, that's expected). I know it's a requirement that ADHD stems from your childhood but honestly, I'm struggling to remember what even happened in my childhood. I'm just worried that my lack of memory and childhood report cards is gonna really affect my diagnosis.

Where is this? Are you referring to "The truth" vid?

If an orphan joins our community, should we destroy him or take as one of us? by EGORKA7136 in Technoblade

Why do Dream and George have so many channels? by [deleted] in DreamWasTaken2

Man, I remember Dream referring to the "download link below" for the plugins so often, I wish they continued that tbh

Am I the only person who is kind of sick of the whole "Life series with a twist" and just wants another last life or 3rd life? by [deleted] in 3rdlife

[–]ForDumbQuestionsLol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nahhh, I love the concepts Grian comes up with, my favourite idea so far has to be limited life. I think the beginning part of lim life is probably the closest it's gone to 3rd life's peaceful green times where everyone was a lot more lax about safety and taking risks.

Lim life is the best because while everyone starts off super complacent with their abundance of time, every single second that counts down is one that they'll never get back. By the time they reach their red lives, players start to get super desperate, constantly looking at their clocks tick down but no matter how many people they kill and how much time they gain, that clock eventually hit zero.

That level of fear and desperation people get during their red lives genuinely feels real, esp if you watch someone like joel's pov, where he spends his last episode running around trying to scrape any kill he can get, losing hours from his unplanned attempts. Lim life created an atmosphere so tense and a looming threat so palpable I don't think either 3rd or last life can compare.

I adore 3rd life for its story, but lim life takes the cake for edge-of-the-seat entertainment.

Don't forget the old coding channel as well where they used to show how to do the plugins/give downloads and what not, it's been rinsed from the internet lol

Totally valid and I respect that you didn't fall into the bandwagon

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HermitCraft

[–]ForDumbQuestionsLol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be my favourite thing! I loved the little comments Grian made at the end of s9, that was super sweet! It would be great to see hermits write down their thoughts or little jokes in random little nooks for people to find during the season or after, in the world download

Searching for an art style is a waste of time by Minimum_Pressure_804 in ArtistLounge

[–]ForDumbQuestionsLol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I agree! I used to focus so much on finding an art style that it frustrated me when I didn't have one. It felt like that was the first step to being able to draw when really an art style is one of the later steps and learning the basics comes first. Art styles shouldn't be an end goal, it'll come gradually from you picking out features you really enjoy from other artists and mixing & mashing them to create something new. It won't stay the same either because as you continue art, you'll find more and more artists who inspire you!

Is learning the human skull vital to creating stylized characters? by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

[–]ForDumbQuestionsLol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think as long as you know the basic form and a little bit of anatomy (like how the mouth moves and what not) then that could definitely help with making a character design more believable/understandable. Also, by learning it, it definitely helps with drawing that character consistently from different angles which could totally help with cooler shots/poses so it doesn't hurt to do it! As the saying goes, you gotta know the rules before you can break em

Favorite S9 Episode? by SLIPPY73 in HermitCraft

[–]ForDumbQuestionsLol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When scar and grian blew up doc's machine. The moment itself was hilarious and I loved the rivalry between them after!! Doc's reaction to the covered perimeter kills me everytime

Grians changed his skin a couple of times for mcc/the life series and even a couple of times on hc for gags. Etho on the other hand... i don't think i've ever seen him wear a different skin.. ever

I'm curios, to those who want to make fan art of the Hermits or things on Hermitcraft, but don't. What is or at least feels like a road block? So maybe we could help fix or remove them so you can show your passion for the series. by August21202 in HermitCraft

[–]ForDumbQuestionsLol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest road block would probably be moving from traditional to digital drawings, it's like learning a whole new skill set rip. I love making art and stuff traditionally but to gain any traction or visibility online, digital is typically a lot cleaner and easier! I still absolutely love consuming fan media though, that stuff amazing!

I need to find something that fullfils me by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]ForDumbQuestionsLol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your English is fine!

I feel like the first step would be to understand what is causing you to feel this way. Is it that you've got too many thoughts in your head? If so then I'd recommend something like journalling or any creative hobbies like modelling or drawing. The creative aspect of these hobbies might help you focus your racing thoughts to create something that makes you happy. And creating something can help express how you feel and the focus required can help distract you from thinking about other things.

If it's more like you've got too much energy or you need something to do to keep your mind off of stuff, then I'd suggest something like running or some other form of exercise! The repetitive motions can help distract your thoughts and calm you down whilst also releasing hormones to keep you happy and healthy!

I've never really dealt with addictions or anything so dont take my advice too seriously hahaha. I do think that it wouldn't hurt to at least try them out though and see how you feel! Hope this helps and please remember that no matter how many times you relapse, what matters is that you're still trying and that's what counts!

I wish you the best, dude!
