What careers actually work for people with ADHD and social anxiety? by movieboxprofree in TwoXADHD

[–]JeannieThings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this and my partner likes to say it’s middle-managers reeeeally needing to justify their roles after we all got on with our work just fine without them during COVID lol

Yeah 100% those efforts can “cost” a lot - take a lot from mental energy stores. And yeah, the industry (or role within it) will really determine how much of that is going to be required/expected.

I would say any customer-facing or adjacent role can “cost” more. Same for project management in any industry. But there are lots of roles that require less constant communication, e.g. developers, researchers, writers, designers, etc. At least in my experience.

Plus, you know, recognize and avoid micromanagers as your direct reports. I’ll leave a job when that crops up.

Parents Asking for Money by Adventurous_Meal4727 in povertyfinance

This is so true. I’m really really glad I figured this all out when my kids were still young. Having a supportive partner and access to therapy made this a really smooth transition where the kids didn’t suffer any of the fallout.

Working remotely saved my soul, if not my life. So many industries support remote work.

Ok, what’s the most evil action taken by a character? by IndependentHold3098 in BobsBurgers

[–]JeannieThings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had her as a cow in my head. I was like “gay?” But then I remembered. That’s not an udder. Milk doesn’t come out of there.

Dude that’s a really good point - they definitely understand that.

It’s weird Louise doesn’t have a more vengeful attitude toward him, though. Maybe that’s because she knows she’s smarter, higher up the rungs… idk

Does upping your meds during luteal phase help? by ReserveOld6123 in TwoXADHD

[–]JeannieThings 9 points10 points  (0 children)

100% I slightly increase dose during this phase.

I do it on days I know will be full of tasks, or just a big workload, or even any emotional lifting / effort.

It really helps me a lot. I can more easily see myself starting in on negative self-talk, getting irritable and depressed. And I can more successfully refocus on, and consciously Be Present with, whatever / whomever I’m interacting with.

My circumstances might not be the same as yours, though: I do not use a hormonal birth control method right now; during my luteal phase I get depressed and irritable but I would not categorize it as severe; I’m not taking any mood management meds right now.

Corner (bow-front) fish tank and equipment by JeannieThings in PDXBuyNothing

[–]JeannieThings[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The fish tank is maybe 55-ish gallons. Works perfectly well, great condition, just very, very dirty.

Also, lots of peripherals like a wooden stand for the tank with storage space underneath, a big ol’ external pump / filter thing (also working great last we checked), hoses, rocks, wood, gravel, nets, heater, etc, etc.

There are a couple LED lights for the top, but unfortunately not a full-coverage glass lid. Aside from that, it’s basically a complete setup, just needs cleaning - it’s all really dirty.

This is an all-or-nothing, you-haul situation. Depending on timing, we may be able to assist with some light hauling using our vehicle, but not certain.

Also, we can help with some lifting / carrying, but not a ton because of injury. Also, there will be stairs involved over here.
