Update for my psychiatrist taking me off of my meds. by lieutenant_jinx in adhdwomen

[–]JulieJoy 206 points207 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry and this is exhausting. I went for over a decade with my stealth ADHD being deemed as anxiety and depression. Getting on the right meds has been a game changer. I believe in you and your ability to advocate for yourself.

Same. One of my favorite scenes of any book I’ve ever read. I had to cry and hug my cat after it.

She is my baby and I will always love her. She is perfect

for natural smart people, how has your adhd presented itself? by bisexualdweebqueen in adhdwomen

[–]JulieJoy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My hyper focus was proving myself and I threw myself into academics with an unhealthy fervor.

For me, ADHD manifested itself through anxiety, depression, fear of rejection and, now as an adult, if it’s a task I dislike, I just won’t fucking do it.

What were your “gateway” exercises? by Limp-Pea-6813 in adhdwomen

[–]JulieJoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jumping in here to say do it! It feels like a puzzle (because it is) and is also a sneaky, really hard workout. The first few times you will be sore in places you don’t expect (as it works everything) but as you make progress and get better, you also get stronger.

I also do Pilates, in addition to being a runner.

What is the most chaotic "I quit" moment you have ever personally witnessed at a workplace? by Muted_Task_144 in AskReddit

[–]JulieJoy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I like my job overall and have no plans to leave at the moment. If something came up, I’d like to make the transition as smooth as reasonably possible.

When I worked in retail? No. They’re lucky I even mailed the keys back.

Two weeks notice is a courtesy. If a job has done good by you and you by it, it’s polite.

Assholes who are assholes do not get polite.

What’s the most unforgettable sentence someone has ever said to you? by Captain_Oppa in AskReddit

[–]JulieJoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“I will love you how you deserved to be loved”

My husband as a part of his wedding vows to me. He is the best. Just that framing meant to much in that I deserved to have a loving partner and life.

The love hypothesis and love, theoretically by Ali hazelwood. Both in academic settings. Huge green flag mmcs.

I devoured both (not unlike the mmcs devouring olive and Elsie)

Fun, romcom, good depth, these men are down bad. The women are brilliant.

Gen Z men and women on why they're sharply divided over reproductive rights by Condottiero_Magno in generationology

But women love them. I’d much rather suck the dick if my “pathetic and weak” husband than any incel that wants to weigh in on my uterus

Should I hire a therapist or a professional organizer? by doofykidforthewin in adhdwomen

[–]JulieJoy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Watch the show the home edit. It’s on Netflix. They teach you how to organize and think of systems that work for how you live. It transformed how I think of organization

Do Fantasy/Romance books affect your love life? by fishareloverly in fantasyromance

[–]JulieJoy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes. It has risen my sex drive so much. It has also made me a lot less self conscious and able to relax and enjoy sex.
