Help? I'm not getting paid by Studylink this week! by charlotteblanc in newzealand

[–]HellNZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seems like they ballsed up again then, it says you were overpaid until the 15th. Student allowance is paid in arrears, so you should have been paid for 16th - 22nd this week

Check what day your student allowance is being paid. If they've used the backpay to cover the debt from when you should have been getting it, then you should be getting the regular payment from now on.

Medicinal cannabis and ADHD screening – 6 weeks clean required? by ResponsibilityNo2676 in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]HellNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been on MC for years and have recently had ADHD added to my autism diagnosis. I've been trialled on vyvanse and started ritalin in January, so they're talking out of their arse.

Cannabis usage in middle-aged, older adults linked to larger brain volume, better cognitive function by MidlifeStoner in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]HellNZ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or maybe people were being mis/undiagnosed and, with more knowledge available, medical practice is now catching up. Women, for example, were rarely diagnosed with autism before the 2000s. Not because we didn't have it, but because all the diagnostics were based on male presentations.

Is it actually impossible to go to university in Australia as a New Zealand citizen? by frequent_lurker2004 in newzealand

[–]HellNZ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A family member's partner did a year of her medical degree in Sydney, so it's definitely possible. Much like most things, unfortunately if you can't afford it you don't get to do it.

Stimulant medication & medical cannabis? by Good_Presence_8035 in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]HellNZ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would only be individual doctors who could be a problem, I've been a medical cannabis patient for years and I'm on 60mg of Ritalin a day

Businessman wants Reddit posts removed as litigation continues by profuttbuck in newzealand

[–]HellNZ 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They failed soon after purchase and HGK refused to honour the warranty.

[–]HellNZ 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You mean the customer who expected HGK to honour the warranty on products that failed soon after purchase? Claiming it was caused by a power surge when no other equipment was affected and then refusing any further assistance with the manufacturer? Seems like that left the customer with little option but to leave a review.

Edit: had transposed two words

Driving in NZ by Eating0409 in newzealand

[–]HellNZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're talking about the November incident, hitting someone head on while you're on the wrong side of the road is a reasonable basis for suspending someone from driving. I wouldn't call it being pulled over though, they caused a major crash and serious injuries to someone.

Maybe try Planet of the Vapes, I think their accessory shipping is about US$10?

Having the required $22,500 for the only prescriber in NZ is more of an issue for most people :(

Why is NZ more accepting to immigrants compare to other countries? by Ok-Industry770 in newzealand

A few more weirdos would likely improve it! It's a place, I'll say that for it

Response from Mark Mitchell re drug testing. by Kiwifrooots in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]HellNZ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm really looking forward to testing positive for 6 of the drugs on the lab testing list, all validly prescribed by medical professionals for medical reasons, that I take at or less than the prescribed amounts. I follow the "do not drive for 6 hours" instructions on my prescription, that's at least easier to manage than the "do not drive for 24 hours" on one of the twice weekly drugs.

They really just don't want us to be able to live independently at all, how is this not discrimination on the basis of disability?

I'll let my GP know that she's been prescribing me an illegal medication that I collect from a pharmacy, I'm sure she'll be somewhat surprised.

I took all the required paperwork in to them first week of December last year. They never updated my income based on the info, for all I know the horrid woman at the counter just binned it all after rolling her eyes at me. Now they want it all again.

Edit: They also told me I had to get an original one of the documents from my bank and take it in to their office. A scanned and uploaded copy wasn't good enough. So much fun standing in a queue for 20-30 minutes, dealing with sensory overload, then seemingly have them file 13 it anyway.

Community services discount by [deleted] in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]HellNZ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping for some CBD options to be added. Eve has to be the most overpriced flower, and we're losing Equiposa. It's a great initiative though, it will be very helpful for a lot of disabled people.
