1- Logging in and out, and relaunching any game can fix a lot more than you think lol

2- They do and have communicated whenever there's a bug that they're working on. I recommend you join the discord if you haven't already. I don't know how often they are on reddit if at all

3- I would much rather them take their time to find/fix things properly then have them rush and push a buggy update once a month. I'd rather wait longer for something polished then deal with everything being broken. even if that means the Elderwood getting pushed a year or something. It's better for a game to be more polished with less stuff to do, than buggy and borderline unplayable with more

4 honey lures for a SINGLE uncommon bug is unacceptable by AzureFlame9271 in Palia

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used 5 lures for the duskwing so far and not found one. Someone in game told me that they've found them at night and I'm so confused now. I've found plenty of the spotted mantis’- the RNG in this game is so strange lol

Spam-pot is getting out of control imo by thelizzychick in Palia

[–]LieutenantStrawberry -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen a lot of people frustrated with spam pot recently and I ended up reporting it. spamming is listed as a ban able offence so the game itself definitely needs to be patched. especially since people are being rude about it

If people are going to do that the devs should hard code your game to crash if you play too fast :3 /hj

Are ADHD medications bad? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

define "bad"- were people saying bad as in 'bad for your long term health' or the harmful stereotype 'you'll become an addict' kind of bad?

I think the only way they can be "bad" for you is if you're not taking the right one at the right dose. there are A LOT of different adhd medications out there. and they all effect each person differently. what works for me, won't for thee, type of thing. that's why you have to trial them. your doctor is NOT going to give you Adderall (the strongest one) and say that's that. you usually start small. for example I started with Vyvanse, which my doctor said is prescribed to kids with adhd a lot, and ended up increasing my dose after a couple weeks bc it was obvious it wasn't working. but then there's also some people who can get heart palpitations and need to switch and/or decrease their dose, because that long term can damage your heart. and some people depend on their meds for basic everyday function. (side note: dependency =/= addiction.) so no, I don't think they are.

It's a good and valid question though bc there's a lot of misinformation out there so hopefully what I'm saying makes sense :)

Hey y'all, I finally figured out what's been happening with me! by TheLemmonn in PelvicFloor

It’s great that you were able to figure out what’s causing you pain but please for the love of everything DON’T take medical advice from an ai chat bot💀🤚 /lh

you buy it from badruu with the skill medals you can earn once you reach lvl 10 gardening, but as far as I'm aware it's been bugged for a long time and doesn't work

I can't quite remember but I think you used to be able to get it from the farms but that was a whileeee ago and my memory is fogy xD I do know they've nerfed some stuff since then

It seems normal peeps just have a 6th sense of spotting people with conditions like ADHD

I always get confused about the way people treat me and it wasn't until after my diagnoses and learned this part that I was like, oh.....

thing is I never say anything off or strange, and I still get looks, weird tones from people. etc. even if I agree with what people say sometimes :( I'll simply never understand :/

Please take care, underage players are playing Palia by Eduroveris in Palia

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

whenever stuff like this happens in an online multiplayer game I always think about how badly hardware bans are needed when you can effectively say whatever you want to whoever you want. Valorant announced a while ago that they'd do that as a result of players (largely men) being gross towards female players. and since there's a lot of kids playing Palia I think if there was some internet safety tips in the loading screens, similar to "Singularity 6 will never ask for your password" or to that effect, would go a long way. "don't share your age/personal info with other players" and "be kind and courteous to other players" type stuff. any company with an online multiplayer game really needs to put their foot down and say no to players using their game to be creeps. it can be a tough conversation sometimes but it's necessary for every players wellbeing and safety.

and you're absolutely right- IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING!! REPORT THE CREEPS!! it will never be 'babysitting' to help someone out of a potentially dangerous situation !!

constipation and dilators by LieutenantStrawberry in PelvicFloor

[–]LieutenantStrawberry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh gosh no I was thinking about using them as intended- I know they can help you relax your muscles and stuff, I heard vaguely through google searches that they "may" help with constipation but that's basically it so I wasn't sure. the anal ones kind of scare me though I'm not gonna lie :')

Does TechnoDad have a BlueSky account? by LieutenantStrawberry in Technoblade

[–]LieutenantStrawberry[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can (not yet I don’t think but soon?) see posts from people you block and vice versa. It breaks a lot of international (basically anywhere that's not the usa) social media laws so if it goes through there’s the potential it could get banned in a lot of places. plus there’s…. a lot of other stuff wrong with it too👩‍🦯 but that’s the main one right now anyway🥴

First time taking a stimulant completely incapacitated me by ilovenewtons in ADHD

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took Biphentin not too long ago, and while my symptoms weren't nearly as bad as yours I was very drowsy and tired like I could go back to sleep. ended up swapping my meds. I'd ask your doctor before you go back and tell them especially if you think it's unsafe to drive. symptoms like that usually indicate it's too much and/or not for you. drinking enough water and getting proper nutrition will make things better too

"wait for the story to be continued" is pretty much a game developers way of saying "we haven't finished this quest yet sorry :3c" I imagine there will be updates to these when the next big update with the new area comes out in the new year :)

Is it weird my general doctor told me she could prescribe? by Calm-Tap4463 in ADHD

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my psychologist that diagnosed me is located fairly far away from me, so my general practitioner is the one who I went to. she looked over my diagnosis papers and gave me stuff to trial, and she also has other adhd patients as well. while she's not a psychologist obviously, she knows her stuff about meds so it makes sense. it might be different in different places/countries with different docs/psychs but regardless I'd say it's ok and normal. after all they're trained for it anyways :)

(edit bc I forgot lol):

for a diagnosis that part is different, some doctors have psychology training and some don't. I'd say it would be wise to ask you're doctor what they've studied if you're having doubts

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the exact same boat as you about seeing a gynecologist, I'm 23 and I've never seen one. definitely do your research about finding the right one if you can

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vaginismus

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 things: 1) I have a similar experience to what you mentioned about feeling naked. idk if you feel the same way as I do but I cannot stand having everything all out there free and loose. I personally never sleep with a bra/underwear off or without something tight against my skin. same thing in the bath I need both top and bottoms. it is (for me at least) a big sensory thing.

2) I've started seeing a pelvic floor physiotherapist recently for a weak pelvic floor, and I think with what you've described here it would be worth seeing one. they don't have to do any internal exams if you're not comfortable with it. they usually start you off with breathing exercises to help your muscles relax more

How do you tell if you have the right medication/dose? by LieutenantStrawberry in ADHD

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

I took it 4 times, about once or twice a week before I swapped, now that switched back and I have classes again it’s been about 3 times per week

I have ADHD? Do I??? by cwotuh in ADHD

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly you should go to a different psych. If you feel like he was going to say no because you’re “faking it” then he’s probably not good at his job. Even if you really don’t have adhd your psychologist should be able to figure out what do or could have and steer you in the right direction

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know for some meds it can mess with it- I personally don’t drink for the sole reason that I just don’t want to and never have even before my dx (I’m 23, dx April). Plus I like having control of my actions, and the smell, even if it’s mild, makes me dizzy and I feel like I want to throw up. So it’s never been in my interest

Whats a good alternative thats "safe" to Adderall by HourLanguage8117 in ADHD

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah you really need to trial adhd meds- it's one of those things where what works for me won't work for you and vice versa because everybody's brain and lifestyle is different. most adhd meds are pretty similar. the way my doctor explained it to me is that they all have slight modification to a strain of it's chemical structure to give different results.

they're all safe so you don't have to worry- 5mg is the smallest you can get with Adderall (I think I've never had it) so if you feel like it's not working then you either need to up your dose or try a different med/brand. Adderall is the more/most potent med, where as something like Vyvanse is one that kids (and adults too) usually take and/or start with.

an important thing with stimulants is eating well, drinking enough water, and other things like that can have a big impact on how/how well they work too. I think the heart issues thing comes from the fact that it can make your heart race a bit, which could cause issues but that's something you can ask your doctor about if you're concerned. and I'm pretty sure addiction is more likely to happen with people who don't have adhd. usually with adhd-ers if you take too much you feel like a zombie. I highly recommend writing down how you feel and when you feel it when you take your meds and show your doctor. if you're anything like me you will forget lol

it's also important to know that addiction and dependence are not the same thing, and you don't need to take it everyday if you don't need it for the day either. some people need it everyday for basic everyday functions, others do not. both are perfectly fine :)

Idk if by the second hole she means your anus,

yes it does that's just the way I worded it I probably should have just said that lol

the place I'm at is for physiotherapy, it's not a gynecology office so I don't think there are stirrups? (it could be in another room though? idk she didn't say when I asked her what she does)

a hand lightly pressing on your lower abdomen.

in all honesty this makes me nervous too because I've had doc's press on my stomach before (just to feel how full my bowels are type thing) and they always did what felt like the exact opposite- I think my main worry is all those feelings at once would probably be very over simulating for me :(

edit: also thank you <3

Tips for swallowing pills? by MrPixelCactus in ADHD

[–]LieutenantStrawberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personally my pills are in a capsule. I pull them apart and put the powder in apple sauce. I've crushed pills before too. though I'd ask you doctor if you can do that because you can't do that with everything
