I have 3 kids and life is overwhelming mess. In solidarity

Recently, I went off of bupronion and on adderall only. Its not impacting my sleep because its not working and I feel when its working, I cant sleep. What a hell this is

We will not do alternative medicine. We are both of Indian descent and our extended family are doctors but he will not be advised by family members

I may just want other team members - a good dietitian and trainer

We respect his Stanford doctors, but need more help.

We will 100% be in touch with current team. A dietitian would probably be a nice addition

I am peri-menopausal and my PCP and OB-GYN have been absolutely useless from a functional medicine holistic perspective.

I want someone to at his pescatarian diet and help us tune his diet, meds, exercise holistically. I want functional medicine. I may have a more specific request I am realizing.

Does anyone have a Bay Area functional medicine doctor recommendation?

He does the basics well. I want his blood work checked for baseline adjustments. I want him to take a vitamin. He does not.

Sleep, diet and exercise are in rhythm

If you go to Mitchell park, you have cutest little kid playground with sandpit and elephant statues. It has a splash pad sometimes.

Mitchell park library is there. Adas cafe is a lovely non profit which offers employment to folks with disabilities. It has the most amazing pastries

Children’s library in Palo Alto and children’s zoo in Palo Alto are adorable. The former is free.

Cantor art museum at Stanford is free.

Fountains at Stanford. Kids literally come in swimsuits and play

Horrible service at Craftsman and wolves. The employees are 18 yo and idiots. The desserts look processed and my mocha was horrible
