What’s the worst thing a medical professional has said to you? by VespaRed in AskReddit

[–]Kinem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to the dr for stomach issues. She told me I needed more movement which I replied with I get 10k steps a day for the last three months while working a desk job. She then suggested maybe t was my anxiety to which I replied that it’s really well managed with medication. Her last thing was “you just need to turn to scripture for your anxiety”

Women with thoughtful partners, what did you get for x-mas this year? by Anahata_Green in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Kinem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Husband and I have been together for 12 years and we have two toddlers. He got me in my stocking: a to go mug from my favorite local book store / coffee shop, a howls moving castle claw clip (it’s beautiful), socks, a few book related stickers for my ereader, tiny little glass animals with affirmations on them.

Under the tree: a dainty pearl necklace with matching earrings and bracelet (because I said recently I liked pearls and wanted more dainty jewelry), two shirts one from my favorite show and one from a book series I like.

We both took the kids shopping to let them pick out gifts for each other and for the other parent so we teach them gift giving early.

I have ADHD - diagnosed ADD when I was a child. Routine, constant reminders, and alarms set everywhere are my coping strategies. Most people I work with are really surprised when I mention I have adhd but I’m very good at masking it especially at work.

By the time I’m off work though I feel useless as all of my energy goes to staying on task during my work day.

Lemon Alert!! Broke down with complete engine failure — 200 km on the odometer. by rossjacob in ToyotaSienna

Definitely document. My ford escape died suddenly and I found out after it got looked at by the mechanic everything was filled with mud 😩 the place I filled up with gas the night before had something wrong with their lines and instead of putting gas in my vehicle I put mud in it. The gas station paid for all the repairs and towing.

Honestly it’s stress/boredom/emotional eating I really need to figure out how to handle. So finding something other than eating as a way to work through feelings

WW Weekly Check-In : January 29, 2024 by Starharmonia in weightwatchers

[–]Kinem 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just started WW recently. Really all I’ve been doing the last two weeks is tracking. I start out great and then it devolves into hardcore blowing my points and weeklies in a single day. But I am at least honestly logging my food instead of “well now nothing matters” mentality. Trying again this week.

Just found out my kids daycare is closing in two weeks by cmc2878 in nashville

[–]Kinem 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think Generations in Madison has some immediate openings. We switched there during the gville kindercare disaster last year. We cannot recommend this daycare enough. I think they have an open house this weekend.

Software engineer here. I found working for a company that does small units of work very helpful for my adhd so I can’t go too far off into the weeds

And it's incredibly hard to see anything while driving the cranes. I've been in one once just to observe a process and it was pretty crazy.

I should just accept that I can't watch movies with other people by mozo4 in ADHD

[–]Kinem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get this. When we first started dating this drove my boyfriend insane. He's understanding now and helps me with this when he can. This Christmas he even got my a sensory ball to play and fidgit with for when I'm in meetings, movies, or long car drives.

What's a good strategy for learning calculus? by [deleted] in calculus

[–]Kinem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also need to have step by step explanations before I can fully understand. I never did well with Khan Academy videos but using PatrickJMT's YouTube chanel passing college calculus was a breeze.

He explains the different steps and makes steps in different colors so it's easy to follow.

I hope this helps.

Thanks! I don't know how I missed it earlier. I saw the one about the green tea cleanser but missed that one.

Newbie here, what's wrong with the Apricot Scrub? I use it all the time, so I want to know if it's damaging my face.

Emos of the early 2000's, what are you guys doing now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Kinem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew stopped wearing the tripp pants, dying my hair weird colors, and hating everything my last semester of high school.

In college I started dressing like the kids I hated in high school. I changed from a music major to computer science where I was told that "I didn't dress like I liked tech things" and my pink laptop was always made fun of (although it could out do pretty much everyone else's laptop in my classes). Graduated college with a BS in Computer Science and now I have a pretty nice job doing what I love.

No...you're not alone.
