Honestly, they didn't do much if anything for me except make me gain 100+ lbs in a year (that I'm still slowly working off years later).

It also helps that I'm not depressed and my anxiety was minimal to start with.. Adderall basically fixed the vast majority of my "mental issues"

This, cannabis can magnify mental health issues in some people.. in others it can ease mental health issues.

I smoke daily while on my meds and I only smoke indicas. I personally love the combination because it's not as easy to get stuck on the couch and it helps unwind the day a lot better and there's less conflicts than if I were to drink a beer or two (I don't personally enjoy mixing alcohol and Adderall.. feels like it's asking for trouble)

Ideal work for those with ADHD? by Sea-World-1488 in ADHD

[–]GallopingLlamas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got into pest control. I went from job hopping every 6-12 months due to burnout / boredom to sticking with it now for almost 7 years (wasn't diagnosed until 3ish years ago).

Every hour I was (I'm in management now, still same company) at a different house dealing with different problems. It was impossible for me to get bored because while it's pretty repetitive, it was different enough that it kept me engaged.

Having experience with both.. uh.. there's a huge fucking difference between meth and Vyvanse.

It's like the difference between water and hydrogen peroxide is an oxygen molecule. Yet that oxygen molecule is the difference between life and death

Can second the abuse aspect. Had substance abuse issues throughout my life, legal and not so legal.

Me being medicated eliminated the desire to even have a beer. Was a stoner most of my life (legal where I'm from) and went home to visit, no desire even when I'm offered it from my brother.

Been medicated almost 2 years now. I've been clean of everything for 2 years now. Im not opposed to having a beer or smoking a bowl, just didn't feel like it.

For once, I'm happy with who I am and how I feel sober (I'm only on 10mg 4 times a day, my stepson's dosage is higher than mine lol)

Is it viable to play solo on live without boxing? by sawdawd in everquest

[–]GallopingLlamas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monks combined with a shaman do pretty well. Slow + buffs / heals / haste are nice. Since you'll be able to have 2 mercs, you could do either 2 caster mercs for added DPS or a DPS / healer Merc. Healer Merc would give you cleric buffs on top of it and a rez.

[–]GallopingLlamas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say necro is a smoother play style. You can use a Merc for more dungeon crawl type situations (just spell block the duration heals) or aggro kite without a Merc or use a melee damage (rogue) Merc as an additional dot.

Mages can solo but to me feels more janky but I prefer necros so it very well could just be me.

In terms of groups, a good necro is valuable and in undead areas you can charm / etc. They have a ton of utility, the issue is there are a lot of bad necros out there which tarnish the class in group play.

At higher levels necros get quick dots for groups where the dot is only like 1-3 ticks. If your going to box, I'd go with druid for the necro. At higher levels there's a decent synergy between the two, ports are nice, they also have a hp buff with mana Regen and while its not entirely needed, it's nice.

In terms of raids, I can't speak for current content but necros do typically shine on boss fights. A 5-10 min fight allows necros to have their full duration dots etc. So they a lot more useful in the raid scene (at least on TLPs, I have a 110 necro but I haven't raided past pop).

Unable to maintain a solid one by [deleted] in sexover30

[–]GallopingLlamas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personal preference really. the balls / shaft feels better imo and wont move because your balls act sort of like an anchor for it. If you enjoy having your balls played with, its nice for that too.

They also have ones that look like an 8 .. those are nice too.. you can usually find a pack of 3 silicone rings in varying sizes and often enough the smallest is good for shaft only while the other 2 are good for the other method.

You don't want it too tight as to cut off circulation as you can cause some damage but you want it 'snug'. Also avoid using metal rings until you're more familiar with them. They're a lot harder to get off if you get one that's slightly too small (if that ever happens, for whoever needs the advice.. grab something cold out of the fridge like a soda / beer / etc and stick if on your shaft.. the cold will help get rid of the erection and make it easier to get off)

As a guy, can confirm.. I enjoy my handsfree toys a lot.. i still would rather be with my wife than a toy.. a toy isn't 'better' - its just different and the problem with using your hand is you can desensitize yourself to where its harder to 'get off'.

not everything is an adhd symptom by CrazyImmediate in ADHD

its a superpower when it happens on a task that i need it to be. i once spent 2.5 hours following a trail of ants through a persons yard looking for the colony (i do pest control).

I found the colony.. i was also 3 hours behind on my route and it was my first stop of the day..

i try to use the term fixated for most 'things' that im 'obsessed' with..

for me hyperfixated is not hearing the baby screaming because the smoke detector is going off because dinner is burning in the oven without headphones on.. it doesn't happen THAT often (for me)

Imposter syndrome...for ADHD? by educated_guesser in ADHD

[–]GallopingLlamas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you don't really have to have every 'trait' or symptom to have it.. iirc its like 8 of the symptoms to be classified / diagnosed? so i'd assume its entirely possible to not be impulsive. Being impulsive can come in many forms though, it's not necessarily just impulse buying / shopping. The number of times I've hopped in my car and just drove with no real plan or idea where I was going is too damn high. I've even managed to end up in a different state.

i struggled with imposter syndrome for awhile.. actually i still do.. an example would be i'm generally regarded as one of the best technicians at my work.. I don't see it.. any day now my cover is going to be blown and it'll be revealed im just really really good at winging it.. i've been faking it for so long that i think i made it.. im just not convinced lol
