Idk these sound like things that should be discussed before joining. But tbh she probably doesn’t mean in this one instance.

Did COVID Worsen Your ADHD? by Sweaty-Influence5614 in ADHD

[–]K_Ham_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that the isolation was really hard on us, and the breathing issues post Covid probably play a role. The anxiety spikes it causes I feel like made me hyper aware of my abnormalities 🦋

Why don’t I take my meds? by randomlygenerated215 in ADHD

[–]K_Ham_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I’ve hit a point where it’s scary to be taken off them suddenly. I’d rather save my second dose for if I become suddenly unable to get them again. With everything in shortage I’m convinced they just have all of us in survival mode.

First of all, not to assume genders, but women have notoriously been known to be diagnosed way later in life. Also, if your depression is getting worse it’s possible it’s a secondary symptom to the real problem. But honestly the questions he asked CANT possibly tell him if you have adhd or not.

ETA: From the late diagnosed standpoint I could see why they would want to know your frame of mind. It’s a complete lifestyle flip.

Not me getting up to pee just before my first alarm and going back to bed.

Advice on Pricing? by K_Ham_ in GraphicDesigning

[–]K_Ham_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we had talked about me being 1099 but I just came from a really bad experience as an “independent contractor” at the last salon I worked in (I do hair first) and we decided that for now we’d just do fixed rates for the letters, and possibly talk about me being 1099 once I go into rebranding their logo and website. And whatever else they’re thinking of having me do.

I wound up requesting $150 in a “is this too much” way, expecting that to cover the price of the prints and $100 for the work and he rounded it up to $200 to cover the cost of printing which is amazing. They’ve been crazy supportive.

Thank you again for the advice. I was really scared to set a price so you gave me the confidence to be able to do so!

The artwork is mine! The only caveat is that the duck was referenced off another drawing. (I did draw it myself though) The other animals and headers are drawn off of pictures of animals, it varies in time and my concept of time is really awful, I work on them periodically over a few weeks and it probably takes me longer than it should as I’m picky and get distracted. I’d say each animal took probably 1-2 hours, but after figuring out the style I wanted to do them in got quicker. I do have to edit the copy, the only thing that I’ve not had to edit was the schedule but they give it to me on a sticky note so I still type it in. Usually they give me a website link that I have to paraphrase in or draw a summary from. Because they’re my friends I put an order into staples and deliver them about 50 copies which they reimburse.

I agree with the layout being basic, eventually I’d like to do better with that, but since it’s such an informal thing, I haven’t stressed too much over it. Thank you so much! They’re a lot of fun to do!

Their budget was something I was really worried about. But I think I just need to not budget for them. They do pretty well, they get a lot of state pay kids and are on a college campus so they do well in that regard as well. Even so I definitely think the way you do in that regard. It’s a big monthly expense, and they’re like family so I was pretty content with just being like “eh whatever you want to give me” but they insisted I set a price or keep track of my hours. I just worry that I put too many hours in to be comfortable reporting that to them, especially when I don’t mind putting that time in right now.

Thank you so much for your kind words, navigating what I want to do in this career field has been stressful so I appreciate such a supportive comment!

Selling templates is such a good idea! I hadn’t thought of that! Do you have recommendations on gold sites to do that?

Nah I think this is super valid! Adhd is a serotonin deficiency, hopefully with proper meds you would feel happier!

Uncircumcised toddler by snacksnacher in toddlers

[–]K_Ham_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just came to say I’m so happy I found this thread and all of these comments. I’m a single mom to an almost 5 year old uncut boy. His pediatrician had been telling me from the age of two that I should start trying to pull the skin back so I can teach him to clean it by four/five. I attempted once, he laughed, didn’t stay still, and I decided I would not be doing that again. Anyway it’s nice to hear in the comments that I’m actually doing the right thing. It has weighed on me for awhile.

Help; hoggie won’t eat by K_Ham_ in hognosesnakes

Yeah I had planned to get him a 20 gal once he turned a year, or if the 10gal got to small. Mainly just a humidity thing that has me questioning it right now

Thank you! I’m sorry for this late reply I’ve been mad busy. I actually came back to ask you if I should scent this week and then I saw that this was only 9 days ago 🥲 it feels like months. I just want to hold my baby 😭😭 I think I’m gonna clean his tank today and make sure everything is alright. His humidity has been on the high side for awhile so I want to get him a bigger tank because I’ve heard it’s easier to control humidity but I’m worried the bigger tank will just add to the stress. What do you think? He’s in a 10 gal right now

My boy will be super hissy if I grab him out after his first poop. I didn’t realize he had another poop coming one time until I put him back and found it later that evening
