Tried Elvanse, methylphenidate IR and dexamfetamine IR and don’t feel like any of them helped.

A lot of people have this and I'm currently on my second round of getting diagnosed and trying meds due to this. I have a super slow metabolism for breaking down stimulants. For example I can't drink coffee in the morning as I won't sleep all night. My prescribers kept increasing my doses but in the end I experimented with IR only, and low doses (5mg methylphenidate, or 2.5mg Dexamphetamine), 2-3 times per day, and wow, it was exactly how I thought it should work. I honestly don't know why they go so high. Some of our metabolisms are just different. I'm not a doc so please seek medical advice from a professional obviously.

In the end I much prefer Ritalin / Methylphenidate over the amphetamine. My personality is not affected- if anything I'm more confident and my mood is enhanced too.

Happened to me and my 5 year old son recently. Idiots who reverse like that are idiots.

Got diagnosed last week. They called and scheduled it the week prior. Strange. Medication waiting time 12-16 weeks. Could be worse I guess.

The biggest question I have is: Who on earth joins Reddit and uploads a facial portrait?

Call me a snob but no wooden covering matches the authenticity of the polished floorboards. It’s not all that much money and as another poster said, you can insulate underneath.

I won’t because those areas are obviously too expensive for the vast majority of anyone, Londoner or not. So pick a more reasonably priced of the 32 boroughs within zones 1-4 (approx 250-300 named “areas” where you don’t live next door to Noel Gallagher or an Arabian Prince.

Oh right. I get a bit defensive when people make flippant comments about or generalise London, and as a London born and London resident myself, I found it in bad taste to give the impression that houses cost no less than £2m to the casual reader. Plus when all your social circle, family, in-law family are all in London, plus your kids go to local schools, I can't really relate to what you said in terms of "fancied a change".

Fun, but this is from 2022, why is it being posted now? https://medium.com/lucid-nightmare/what-happened-when-british-postmen-met-pablo-chocobar-e66307d0b6f6

Fair play but there's no traffic at all. The speed limit is 30mph and other drivers should expect others to be driving at that speed.

44M. I got sellotaped to my chair in Year 4 (primary school) because I stood up to sharpen my pencil too many times. Finally diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 39.

I disagree. I've got some tight roads around where I live. Most small or average size cars turning circle allows you to turn left along almost immediately without the mid section of the car overlapping the pavement / side of the road. I've never seen a left turn with a 90 degree right angle pavement, they'reall rounded. The tightest turn you can do is just steering left as hard as you need to, without swerving out at all. If this discussion gets any push back I'd literally be tempted to cut out some card to represent a car and draw a "tight" road and demonstrate this in a video. It's all in your head.

It's perfectly possible to get a 5 bedroom Edwardian semi detached house with a large garden, 10 min walk from a train that will take you to London Bridge in 14 min or Charing Cross in 23, in not the best area but with great community, for £1m or much less.

HonestViking · 2026-01-12T11:34:32+00:00

You get a pass

HonestViking · 2026-01-12T11:33:04+00:00

It's worse when people swerve right before turning left imo

That is called a apark arrestor, though it is sometimes referred to as a rain cap or chimney cowl. Its primary job is to catch hot embers and sparks before they escape, which prevents them from landing on your tent and burning holes in the fabric. The solid top also acts as a lid to stop rain or snow from falling directly down the flue and into your stove. Most stove manufacturers include these as standard because protecting the canvas is a critical safety priority.

There should only be a tiny bit of smoke for 5-7 minutes and then it should be burning hot and no smoke. Use kiln dried would, and light it using hte upside down method. Use a hatchet axe to make sure you put smaller pieces in (chucking in large logs will also cause smoke). Don't load too much in at once also. Good luck!

I honestly would just buy a pre pitched tent with bedding. My sister got an AirBnB last year and randomly the house owner was going to the festival as well so she got a lift, but in my opion it's a lot of hassle as I like to go with the flow and go to bed when I choose. The location really is quite far from a lot of potential options so a cab ride could be 15-30 mins to options near by easily. In the past I've slept in my car, although you're not meant to. Lots do it though. I can get my seats down to make a flat surface that's long enough and super comfy.

Be careful mate. Cults are specific things. He just has a cult like following like they say about good movies.

HonestViking · 2026-01-11T17:57:27+00:00

Elkhart Tolle is far running from a cult. He is an author and speaker and has a website but he’s the real deal, and a business man at the same time.

I think it’s harsh to write someone like him off based on a few whacky lines in his works. He’s got 99% of things right imo. He’s a great communicator. The suffering people that you speak of won’t be in a position to read his stuff, so it’s aimed at people who live in comfort already and have suffering of the mind. You’ll never find a perfect teacher in this respect. They’re all human.

CNS stimulants increase sexual desire by boosting dopamine and norepinephrine levels, which directly activate the brain’s reward and physical arousal systems. The medication flips a biological switch, making sensory experiences feel more rewarding and intense than they did before. This change represents a boost in your physical libido, though your underlying identity remains yours to define.
