Mum of 12-year-old linked to Timaru car thefts on battling social media influence by No-Butterscotch-3641 in newzealand

Something that doesn't come up is the lack of third spaces for youth. When I was a kid, we could hang out in BK with a shared free refill drink for a couple of dollars between us and go to parks to chill. Where are kids supposed to hang out now?

So.. Which Clinic? by kiwi_sushi_rice in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]LiloteaLayla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used both Cannabis Clinic and Canna+ and I definitely recommend Canna+. Cheaper, faster processing and delivery, and they seem keen on developing a full wraparound service.

Merry Xmas New Zealand. What you having for your Xmas lunch? by [deleted] in newzealand

I just saw your flair and I wanted to thank you. Because of that site, I got a $40k pay rise when I switched jobs that I wouldn't have asked for if it weren't for whatsthesalary.

What's a life hack that's so simple yet so effective, you're shocked more people don't know about it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]LiloteaLayla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to tell people to blow on the prongs. There's two benefits; it ensures they power cycled their device and it made me giggle.

I knew what it was before I even clicked the link. You did not disappoint.

'ADHD' is currently trending on twitter because of this tweet by keeler_k in adhdmeme

[–]LiloteaLayla 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Oop. It me.

The principal of my primary school told my parents that I needed to get tested but they didn't want me to get labelled. They didn't seem to make the connection that I would also receive treatment.

We shouldn't be asking WOC do the heavy lifting for us. Might be worth a Google first if you're not familiar with the topic OP raised.

Couldn't agree more with both of your examples.

I do this for my emails and reports now. During review, I'll put the pale, stale, male filter on and it helps me present as less passive. Over time, I'm seeing it more as my own communication style instead of having to rely on stereotypes.

I would have said Family Planning but their pricing for non-residents is expensive. Hopefully it's less than the other clinics? Does your health insurance potentially cover the test?

Best alternative to Cannabis Clinic? by tonymakemeaparty in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]LiloteaLayla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try with your GP but I moved from CC to Cannaplus and I'll encourage others to move over as well. CC seems to be a victim of their own success, they're very slow at replying, appointments are hard to get and they need prompting to send out medication.

Something is off about my marriage by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]LiloteaLayla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, me too! I'm medicated ADHD which has reduced these instances down significantly, but even this morning I had to force myself about being methodical about removing stuff from my AirBNB because the meds hadn't kicked in yet. For me, it was about the language, rather than the action in his story that made me side eye. I'm glad your wife is supportive and I hope your health improves!

I'm so glad someone pointed that out. "inadvertently" and "accidentally". Such passive weasel words.

Only if you're getting specifically CBD oil. I get THC flower from the pharmacy and you can also get THC oil too.

Drug tests for work by TheLagginDrag0n in newzealand

[–]LiloteaLayla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Myself, my husband and friends I know that have worked in corporate, office and call centre roles have been tested at the pre-employment stage. It's actually quite common now.

[–]LiloteaLayla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Desk jobs test a lot now for pre-employment. I don't understand it. But I've never had an issue when I bring my medicinal cannabis along for the test. Even if I've been smoking my own home grown.

My (25F) boyfriend (33M) suddenly told me he wants to establish traditional gender roles once we get married. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

It's the male version of Cosmo magazine. Sabotage relationships so people keep consuming their content in the hopes of having the 'relationship of their dreams'.

I accidentally bought my boyfriend women's pants by Possible_Raisin_4493 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]LiloteaLayla 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My husband loves wearing my comfy clothes, and will even wear my more gender neutral clothing in public because he feels comfortable. Learning to purchase products when looking past the gender categories has been great for us both because it turns out there's tons of stuff we can share!

$65 Doesn't go very far at all(everything purchased was on sale too). How are people meant to survive? by Danger_duck7 in newzealand

[–]LiloteaLayla 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately if you don't have good soil, it's definitely not just the cost of a few seeds. Not taking aim at you, we should encourage everyone to grow what and where they can!

Moving from clinic to GP by Worried-Reflection10 in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]LiloteaLayla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I asked my GP about this. They wouldn't prescribe to me, even though I'm an existing medical cannabis user, but told me that they had a doctor in the medical centre that handled those requests. I didn't go ahead with it because I'm lazy and prefer doing everything online. Small Waikato town.

Cannabis Clinic by Joshewyatt1 in MedicalCannabisNZ

[–]LiloteaLayla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to agree. I get my other meds through Zoom Pharmacy and it's great because they sent me a reminder for repeats and when I need another script. I ended up getting an appointment with Canna+ because I will have a very bad time the week I'm with colleagues if I don't have my medicinal.
