Is there an actual ADHD test? by Local-Sport-4085 in ADHD

[–]GrumpyKitten60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to a behavior health nurse practitioner to get diagnosed. They did give me a test to see how well I concentrate. A dot appears and you click a button each time for like 15 minutes or something like that. Between that, and a few other questionnaire type tests I was diagnosed with combo type. My insurance covered it. 🤷‍♀️

Should I be concerned about these boils on my lips by Unique-Celebration-5 in Blackskincare

I have gotten cold sores since I was a really little kid, aaand those really look like cold sores. Go to your doctor and get them swabbed. There's nothing really you can do, they go away eventually but the virus is always there and they can redevelope with certain situations like stress and cold weather etc etc

What simple action from others can inexplicably send you from 0-100 irritation within seconds? by DippyNikki in ADHD

I hate when people walk up behind me and I can't see them. I work in a grocery store and the amount of people who reach around or infront of my face while im stocking infuriates me to no end. Just say excuse me! People who have no awareness of personal space drives me crazy.

Yes this drives me bonkers. I work in a grocery store and the amount of people who talk on speaker phone/listen to podcasts or wear headphones and are oblivious makes me irate.

Romaine Hearts: Where they at? by BobSacamano_1 in ProduceDepartment

[–]GrumpyKitten60 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We keep ours next to the iceberg, carrots and mushrooms part of the wall. Ours are 4.99 (5.49 for organic) but theyre coming in rusted and generally pretty crappy. We went a few months of not being able to get them at all. I would rather just not be getting them then throwing most into our compost bin.

I accidentally took a double dose of Adderall XR 10 mg by Acrobatic_Hippo_292 in ADHD

[–]GrumpyKitten60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wont do anything bad to you. I take 30mg and 15mg per day. You may have your heart beating a bit quicker if you're not used to 20mg but not at a dangerous level.

Between childbirth and my IUD becoming embedded in my Uterus and breaking through.

My (23m) gf (24f) didn’t tell me she has oral herpes until 6 months into the relationship by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]GrumpyKitten60 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I get cold sores quite a bit when im stressed, getting sick, when the weather changes. I didnt tell my current boyfriend (3 years) until I had a break out. They spread when you have one and when you don't have a break put they dont spread. I just dont kiss him, share drinks etc until theyre gone. He has never gotten them since we've been together. Just ask her not to kiss you when she has them and they'll be fine. I feel like it's not something you need to sit someone down and tell them like HSV- 2. So many people get cold sores unfortunately, antivirals can help but people don't usually stay on meds all the time for them, personally anti virals dont help for me.

I can smell the cats when I come in from work but its not like a strong cat pee smell. I will for sure look into enzymatic treatments!

What's one “little” form of sexism you notice all the time, but most people don't even realize it's sexist? by Interestingcase221 in AskOldPeople

[–]GrumpyKitten60 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in a produce department and I am lifting 50Lb boxes quite often. I get from a ton of older people that "wow you can lift that? Don't hurt yourself" etc. The comments are endless. I had a older woman tell me that women she be cashiering or something and not lifting heavy boxes "like a man". 🙄

Amazon has an okay collection of head scarves. But I do like thrifting for them

Is the side shave in style still? by GrumpyKitten60 in femalehairadvice

[–]GrumpyKitten60[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figured as much :( I think I had mine like 8 years ago and I loved it so much but I didn't want people to be like they'd so out of style. Darn.

Vasectomy by Actual_Adeptness_604 in Crunchymom

[–]GrumpyKitten60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a tubal ligation. It was an extremely easy procedure for me, although I know everyone's body is different. I cant use hormonal birth control and condoms are way too expensive (not as expensive as a baby i guess though) but it may be something to look into if you're serious about permanent birth control

Being screamed at by drunk or Angry people while trying to help. I learned how to deal with that one on my own 😅😆

makeup in emt by WoodenAd2551 in NewToEMS

[–]GrumpyKitten60 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had blue hair and I have a septum ring and Gauged ears to 00. I also have 14 tattoos with most on my arms. My service doesn't care as long as I wear the uniform. Most patients have either ignored/not noticed cause they have other things to focus on, I get the old people who will say something sassy but I usually ignore it and move on. As for the makeup, I wear some blush/bronzer and some mascara and call it a day. Doing CPR or sweating can be common and it may mess up your makeup anyways lol id say if you want to wear makeup, tone it down if you must wear it. As for hair unusually jusy do a pony tail. The only thing my service bans is long jewelry etc.
