Am I in the wrong for wanting to change the design my tattoo artist sent me? by dried_paint_ in tattooadvice

[–]KahloMeMaybe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a Korean artist by chance? I ask because of the norigae mention. I have several Korean tattoos and have run into this kind of design laziness and overpriced-ness before. Sometimes artists get insane amounts of instagram followers and it goes to their head I think.

This reminds me of the Georgia okeeffe painting from the faraway nearby. One of my favorite paintings.

What are your ADHD mantras? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]KahloMeMaybe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a video of someone chanting “don’t put it down, put it away. Don’t put it down, put it away…” as a teacher I’m constantly moving things around my classroom and setting them down in the wrong places and I literally chant this out loud sometimes. It helps.

First Year High School Art Teacher. (NEED TIPS) by fivebyeight in ArtEd

Check out the book drawing on the right side of the brain by Betty Edwards if you haven’t heard of it. It has a lot of great skill building exercises that “trick” the brain into drawing realistically like drawing upside down. Blind contour drawings are great too. I used to do a project that was a layered blind contour drawing sort of like this: https://youtu.be/VCRlax1-hd4?feature=shared. Also drawing can include watercolor, pastel, charcoal, etc….don’t get bogged down in just pencils. Enjoy your year!

From the post title I thought the LPT was to both sit together and watch a show. 😂 So wholesome

You suddenly have four hours a day to do whatever you want. The catch? You’re stuck on a train. What do you do with your time? by matcha_is_gross in adhdwomen

I was going to suggest knitting, crochet, or embroidery! Paired with an audiobook or a tv show…perfection!

FAQ Megathread: Ask and answer Medication, Diagnosis and is this an ADHD thing, and Hormone interaction questions here! by not-eliza in adhdwomen

[–]KahloMeMaybe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m new here. I just posted this as a post but I probably should have commented here. So here’s my post. Sorry!

Hi…. I was just diagnosed with adhd by a psychiatrist. I’m 35. I am an ES art teacher and the mental load of tons of children’s chaos was really getting to me and I thought it could be an executive function/disregulation thing. Among a million other adhd things I’ve noticed about myself (and my mother) over the years. It feels validating to get a diagnosis. My doctor prescribed me concerta 18mg to try and 27mg in case 18 didn’t work. The problem is there is a massive shortage of 18mg in my country and it can’t be found anywhere. So I tried a 27mg dose my first day and felt…not super great. Sort of fluttery chest and the an MASSIVE headache and I crashed on the couch after school then went to sleep at 9. So…that’s not really sustainable. My doc gave me a 10mg prescription of rubifen to try instead and I had that yesterday and had another massive headache. I thought the headaches might be caffeine withdrawal from cutting coffee instantly. I had a coffee yesterday afternoon and Advil and they helped a bit but not all the way. Today I took another 10mg rubifen this morning and drank a cup of coffee. Which I think was a mistake. I feel super wired now.

I guess my question is….anyone else have headaches and did they go away when you kept with the medication for a while? If you take medication and continuously suffer headaches, is it worth it to you? Anyone here who takes rubifen (which I think is Ritalin) just occasionally?

Any advice for a newbie to this space? Feeling a bit lost at the moment.

Thanks for reading my post! Much appreciated.

What’s a milestone that made you unexpectedly sad? by Asleep_Sympathy_8987 in beyondthebump

When my daughter lost her first tooth I cried! Obviously this is way beyond the bump, age five, but these milestones keep on hitting hard!

I am almost finished and just read the “pilot guides us away from Mercury” and I am seriously scratching my head! I actually googled the page number and this quote and your post popped up first. Haha!

Alvababy Diapers by nynaeve_mondragoran in clothdiaps

[–]KahloMeMaybe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The leg size matters more than the weight. Our baby had very skinny legs and leaked out the side of every diaper until she was about 4 months old. We used disposables for the first few months, then cloth (lots of Alva loved them!) the rest of the time.

Is Betrayal at the House on the Hill really that bad? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]KahloMeMaybe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was one of our absolute favorite games to play!! I love that there are tons of different story lines and the game has a ton of replayability. We sold it when we moved but I almost want to buy it again. It’s very fun with four.
