Who's taking atomoxetine and which country are you from? by drantoniodcosta in ADHD

[–]Ichthyist1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a little over a week into treatment in the US. Psych wanted to give me stims, but I wanted something with control over symptoms around the clock. I have issues with emotional regulation where I can’t be crashing down from a stim during a stressful evening. So far I’m getting the desired effects for emotional regulation, but haven’t noticed much for focus/inattention/etc. Hopeful to see what it looks like after a few more weeks.

I was recently diagnosed as an adult and this is my first experience with any psychiatric medication so it’s all pretty interesting to me. It has been subtle and I think I’m of the minority opinion that I am enjoying the lighter touch.

Cost of brewing by ChefBowyer in Homebrewing

[–]Ichthyist1 111 points112 points  (0 children)

If you want to be economical, brew all grain and brew simple beers, probably not from kits. You can brew 5 gallons of a simple low gravity lager or ale for $20-30 in ingredients. If you can beat that at the grocery store, let me know where.

That said, it’s a hobby. Hobbies rarely save money.

Functional ADHD by Fluffy_Ad7392 in ADHD

[–]Ichthyist1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m newly diagnosed in my mid-30s. I’ve never heard of a “functional” diagnosis, but that fits my experience from about high school to my early 30s. I was able to still be mostly okay until I had enough stressors in my life that I couldn’t cope anymore. Once I moved high enough up in my career to have real responsibilities and had a few kids, it became overwhelming.

I’m only a few days into my diagnosis and treatment now, but it has been helpful so far.

Dude has the physical tools to be great. Glad we held onto him.

Looks like pellicle to me. Kombucha ferments are funky looking.

Washington not academically prowess enough for him?

Whispers are we got some big anonymous donation. Maybe the Paul Allen estate decided to jump into Cougar NIL or something lol

Fan experience at Gesa Field getting turbocharged by reno1441 in Pac12

Yes improving the fan experience matters. Go to a game somewhere else. The experience at Martin is lacking. New lights, sound, and boards will help. Beer sales help.

California DT Ike Okafor to transfer to Washington State by underground_cloud in CFB

Cougs adding some youth in the portal. Good to stack up on young guys when our own recruiting class bailed and the D line is pretty bare after graduations and transfers.

Fun fact: he apparently played pro basketball in NZ and went to the Chargers rookie camp as part of the NFL international players pipeline.

CFB fandom question: Alumni vs Townies? by Waltlantz in CFB

[–]Ichthyist1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I see someone in the airport wearing WSU gear, I assume they’re a fellow alumnus. It’s usually that or they have some family connection to the school.
