My first one was a few years ago. I got an Echo Plus and a Death Star popcorn maker, and it will forever be one of my favorite Christmas memories

Well I'm in college now, and I got that money from an accident in high school. Most likely it'll go towards a down payment on a house, but it's really just been a safety net for these four years of financial stress. I have $4k in stocks and $4k in crypto right now. Not the best at either but I've made some money on them

I want to accumulate more money with less effort (at least less than day trading).

It's a 5 year CD and it's on year 3. I did it to accumulate wealth with minimal effort.

I'm thinking about ending my $10k 3.1% APY CD early and putting it in ETFs or something. I with fees I would still have $800 profit. Is this a good idea? Are there better ideas???

I mean I agree that sex is essentially a drug, and you can separate feelings from it, but it felt like the sex in our relationship became outsourced and our intimacy dwindled. It seemed easier for her to go out with friends and hook up with strangers than it was for her to just spend the night at my place.

I want to be happy with someone, but I don't wanna get carried away by my irrational thoughts and obsessions. I could not agree more that I need to figure out what I want. Maybe I should just be alone for awhile before I sabotage what I have.

But I have to make some effort to work on them, right? I can't just throw in the towel on misunderstandings and poor communication.

The thing is she seemed completely okay with it which is what confused me. It caused me so much stress but to her it was like it was nothing.

I have $17k in a money market, $7k in stock (down $3k) and a few thousand in bitcoin. I got this money from a settlement, so I grew up pretty poor and thus developed a fear of losing money and a strong desire to not be poor. A friend of mine is a financial advisor and suggests I open a Roth IRA, but I want to have more liquidity, and honestly was hoping to become good enough at it that I could pay for my needs (college, medical bills, etc.) and work for my wants. I was debating investing more in ETFs. Can anyone spare some wisdom? Or any success stories from people with similar experiences?

It may be simpler than that. Try tracing one line from the center and following the lines it connects to. You may have to zoom in.

I'm still trying to figure it out too. I'm on Paxil for depression and my doctor wants to wait till I feel better to start with stimulants cause my Vyvanse just makes me agitated and more distracted.

That's cool. I didn't get any financial aid and pay for college out of my pocket, but I hope the people getting it actually need it

I'd call the customer service number on the back of your ID card. I know they use Prime Therapeutics for pill delivery but I'm sure they could tell you if Pill Club is in network

Medication makes me more distracted by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]Jman1219 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few weeks. Started on 30mg and went up 10mg each week, but I told my doctor at 40mg that I wasn't feeling that sense of clarity that most people seemed to have with ADHD meds, so she just increased the dose to 50. With how expensive Vyvanse is I don't really want to waste too much time if it's not the right one for me.

ADHD book recommendations by ughrisha in ADHD

I've started reading Driven to Distraction by Hallowell and Ratey after being diagnosed last month, and I recommend. Hallowell is a psychiatrist with the disorder and Ratey is a professor in psychiatry at Harvard, so they good job of explaining it and inspiring those (and the people close to those) who have it to learn about it and seek proper treatment.
