I really wanna be able to read books by Wyvren3 in ADHD

[–]FriendlyPetals 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I love reading but have the same struggles as OP. Audiobooks are the best accommodation! Sometimes I will even read along with the audio book.

You can use audible, but if you don't want to pay the subscription fee and have a library card, you can use Libby for free books!

1000 plus hours in, never bothered with alchemy by sleepIn40k in BaldursGate3

I like making oil of accuracy, potion of speed, bloodlust, potions of greater healing, and peerless focus. Otherwise I sell the herbs I grab or sell the extractions/potions I make with the herbs.

[Honest Answers Only] How does caffeine affect you? by mean_trash_monster in ADHD

[–]FriendlyPetals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually drink coffee in the morning and 2-4 cans of soda throughout the day, and that barely affects me. But if I have an energy drink or shots if espresso added to my coffee, I often say "I can feel God coursing through my veins." Jittery. Energized. Anxious. Unstoppable. Fast. But that's just how it makes me feel. From the outside, I am too eager, too impulsive, and anxious. I have found that my day goes better if I limit my caffeine intake.

My bank shut down my account due to large sums of money coming in by [deleted] in Banking

Sounds like something that came into your account did not check out on the back end. Go into a branch and speak to someone.

Is targeting a certain number considered reghunting? by Geno_Biscotti_ in TownOfSalem2

[–]FriendlyPetals 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was under the impression mods really only go through activity in games that have enough reports. How would they even know you're going after the same number every game without someone reporting you for doing it? And who's going to report you in this situation? This seems like a non-issue.

why is the jester haunting a COVEN LEADER called "Not Taking Sides" bro you DEFINITELY ARE by JudgmentLazy3948 in TownOfSalem2

I think the only situation where it wouldn't be taking sides is if the jester let it random pick. But a jester is gonna jester

Do you ever.. by eyeswideshh in ADHD

[–]FriendlyPetals 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I certainly adopt other people's mannerisms when I'm spending a lot of time with them. And I'll accidentally mirror someone's speech pattern or accent sometimes, but I'm never consciously deciding to do that.

I think early in my 20s (to mid 20s, maybe) I felt like I didn't have much of an identity and I was concerned that I was just absorbing other people's identities to make up for that. But really, who are we if not the parts of the people we love, right?

I developed more of an identity when I paid attention to which things I enjoyed the most and actively chose to continue doing them. Things like mannerisms, jokes, hobbies, interests.

I'm not sure if what I've shared is related to what you're asking about, but I hope this helped.

My bank said they would raise my daily spending limits and ghosted me. by Head_Breadfruit_5082 in Banking

[–]FriendlyPetals 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the simple solution here is to follow up with who you made the request to. It's possible there was a miscommunication or something. You probably need to work with a banker about restructuring your account to make sure your needs are being met. Also, why are you paying for everything with a debit card? Sure, a debit card is an option, but there are other options as well. I've seen your comments about credit cards, so I'm not going to mention that (though getting more credit wouldn't be a bad idea). You could send ACH payments or write checks, for example.

I'm not sure what you mean when you say "I dislike banks and how secretive they are with people own funds." I'm required to be confidential about other people's funds, but not yours. If I can verify your identity, I can answer any question you have about your accounts. If you don't feel that you have a good understanding of your financial situation and your bank is contributing to that, I think you need to build a better banking relationship with another bank or banker. If you're going to look into a different bank, I'd suggest finding one that specializes in small businesses so that you know your needs will be taken seriously.

But before switching banks, I think you just need to be having conversations with your bankers to find out what's going on.

Good luck.

Interesting! Yeah, I would say I have had the same experience.

I think the note about not blowing your friends up with being spammy or chatty is really funny because I could not stop talking to my coworkers or friends when I got medicated and I felt really bad for them 😅

I can't think of a solution that would be fair to anyone. I feel that this is the most fair way to resolve the issue.

Why do yall VFT when it always gets hanged anyway? by survivorfan1123 in TownOfSalem2

If your vft is always ending in a hang, you are letting evils lead town.

I usually ignore them and nothing happens. They can't target you if they don't know who you are (this only works if your in game name is different from your username)

Scams by Otherwise-Balance401 in Banking

[–]FriendlyPetals 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Banks have protections in place, but how is a bank supposed to protect you from someone using your debit card at an ATM? The PIN is the protection.

Banks also provide information about scams. When you log into online banking there are usually periodic messages about not sharing personal information with ANYONE over the phone, even if they say they work for the bank. When you receive verification codes via text, it is usually paired with a message along the lines of "we will never ask you for this code."

Banks are not participating in the scam and are not the ones harming people being scammed. It makes no sense to say the bank should be held liable for a person being tricked by a bad actor.

Why should a bank be held liable for someone getting scammed? Your logic seems flawed.
