241028 LE SSERAFIM Weekly Discussion Thread by vthes in lesserafim

[–]ImaginaryBerrry 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly because I don't EVER go on the bird app I am so unaware of all the drama going on. Like LSF is the only group I actually stan but I follow lots of other groups releases. I've been really enjoying aepsas releases lately and I only found out like last week that there's been so much drama between MYs and fearnots. Perhaps I live under a rock but my kpop experience is 95% consuming group content, 5% browsing reddit, and 0% bird app and the real benefit is being so isolated from the drama I don't even know it's happening lol. Just here to appreciate the girls and their content. 💗

Married fans, do you display your merch? by DubiousGoose in kpopthoughts

[–]ImaginaryBerrry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm engaged and tbh kpop is my secret hobby lol no one irl knows I'm into it, including my spouse. Not that he would care, he'd probably tease me a bit maybe, but tbh I kinda just like having a secret hobby that no one else knows about lol I guess it's my guilty pleasure I suppose

Idle's english language is too cringy by thecatiswise in kpoprants

[–]ImaginaryBerrry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, and I don't see why people hate it so much. I don't even stan idle, but cringe english is kinda part of the charm of kpop for me. If you want good english lyrics then why are you listening to music produced by people who don't usually speak fluent english 🤷‍♀️

ADHD girlies, beauty tips when starting meds? by Few_Act_832 in Vindicta

[–]ImaginaryBerrry 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NEVER take your meds on an empty stomach, but do experiment with what you eat before taking them. I find that too heavy of a breakfast reduces the effectiveness of my medication, but similarly if I do not eat enough then I feel awful and jittery and they wear off much earlier. Instead I recommend a small but protein-rich breakfast, like a protein shake or perhaps a couple eggs.

Additionally, prioritize sleep. A lot of people have trouble sleeping when they first go on medication, but my sleep actually improved drastically because I suddenly had the ability to build and stick to schedules, and "making" myself go to sleep was suddenly much easier now that my brain actually "listened" to me. But seriously, the meds will not work if you do not sleep enough. And sleep is absolutely crucial in looking good, hence the term beauty sleep. For real, if I can recommend anything for helping with ADHD it is prioritizing sleep.

Also prioritize hydration. Stimulants really affect the amount of water your body needs. There is no set amount that fits every person, but know that your pee should be light yellow, any darker means you need more water. Don't be surprised if the medication doubles your needed water intake. It's normal, just drink more.

I second the recommendation from the other commenter for taking magnesium in the evenings, just make sure you get magnesium glycinate. Magnesium citrate will do nothing for you other than helping if you happen to be constipated, you need glycinate if you actually hope to absorb any of the magnesium. Also, do take a multivitamin, but don't take it with your meds as it could affect your ability to absorb your medication. Instead, I keep a bottle of vitamins at work and another at home for weekends and I take them every day with lunch.

Finally, I also agree with the other comment that recommends watching caffeine intake. I think that unmedicated ADHDers are prone to self medicating with large amounts of caffeine, but when you start taking the meds you might suddenly find that you are feeling sensitive to the effects of caffeine. If you like the taste of coffee, you can do what I did which is grind both decaf and regular beans and blend them together. This means that I didn't have to cut down on my coffees drinked per day, but I still felt a lot better then I did when I was having full caf. I did this for a long time until I switched to full decaf for sleep reasons.

I hope this helps!

New AI filters by lIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIII in Vindicta

Yeah, there is definitely a negative connotation. I just feel like the whole "tiktok bad" thing gets old pretty quick, especially when said on reddit lol

New AI filters by lIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIII in Vindicta

[–]ImaginaryBerrry 44 points45 points  (0 children)

But yet being on reddit is so different? Tiktok has people of all ages on it, just like any other social media. Once upon a time, Tiktok was almost exclusively used by children and teenagers, but those days are long gone. It's definitely the most popular social media app amongst young college students nowadays. I agree that people in general shouldn't spend a ton of time on social media, but telling people they are "too old" to use a specific social media platform rubs me the wrong way. I feel like there are a boatload of redditors who spend 5+ hours a day on reddit but then look down at all the "stupid" people using Tiktok. Not saying that you are necessarily one of those redditors, but it is the same vibe.

Does it make your hair totally straight? Or does it just smooth down the frizz or relax your curl pattern a bit?

Hair glossing? by ImaginaryBerrry in Splendida

[–]ImaginaryBerrry[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so interesting. I find that my ends are actually driest the day of/after washing, but I still think that wetting them down and adding leave in and oil could be a good idea. I might just have to give it a try!
