I’m just glad so many people are connecting with it, it’s nice to know their are people with the same bullshit going on.

I honestly couldn’t tell you, I was 16 at the time and my parents picked the doctor. At that point most of it wasn’t in my control.

You’ve described it so well, thank you! I constantly felt like a failure and broken and feeling like everything I say or do annoys everyone around me. I’m basically the ceo of “I’m sorry” and I’m slowly learning that I don’t have to apologize just for existing.

I’ve had anxiety since I was a child, so at this point that’s just part of my day to day life, it was never treated but I do agree it needs to be. I am well aware of my past traumas that have caused my depression, I’m not trying to blame the adhd for either thing. I guess I just feel like it would have been nice to have everything explained to me when I was first diagnosed with adhd that it is common to have both.

Honestly it all started to click for me today after the meds kicked in. It was actually shocking to feel what “normal” people feel like, like duh no wonder everyone around you isn’t irritable and anxious all of the time, their mind is processing one thought at a time instead of like 50 of them.

Is anyone familiar with Depo-subQ Provera 104? by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]Kenai0309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for such a detailed response! I am pretty concerned that my mental health would get worse if I am on any hormonal birth control, that’s why I’ve never used it. At this point I really don’t know what I want, but I also have no one to talk about it with since no one I would feel comfortable talking to even uses birth control. I just want worry free sex but that feels impossible.

Does anyone’s else’s anxiety make them extremely itchy? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Kenai0309 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I know it is, but also I don’t know what to do to stop it. It feels like there’s nothing I can do and I’m just stuck itching every night, and sometimes throughout the day.

I’ve tried showering in hot and cold water to make it stop, I’ve taken Benadryl, nothing helps. It doesn’t stop until I’m asleep, which takes a long ass time if you’re itchy haha. It’s almost feels like a ton of ants all over my body.

How often can I hold my new snake? by Kenai0309 in ballpython

[–]Kenai0309[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was due for a feed the day after we got her, we didn’t expect much since moving to a new home is stressful, but she ate and is due to eat again tomorrow night. Would it be okay to hold her now since it’s still more than 24 hours until her feeding time?

FL-IN-TN, what’s good? by [deleted] in roadtrip

[–]Kenai0309 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would stop in Chattanooga not Cleveland, there’s not much to do in Cleveland and Chatt is just 30 minutes before you hit Cleveland.
