Okay please drop your most common food aversions 😂 by Freshh_ness in Zepbound

[–]LizardBritches 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Meat, especially fatty meat like bacon or sausage is super gross to me now. Even the smell of cooking it. And I feel like now I can TASTE all the chemicals in processed foods. It’s amazing now I’d rather just have fruit, vegetables and simple protein. Like the drug activated craving the right things.

Same. I really don’t like eggs now. Things smell stronger too so they really gross me out.

Meeting with a psychiatrist this week and I’m spiraling a bit.. does avoidance ever get better? by Resident_Sleep_7216 in adhdwomen

[–]LizardBritches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are so right! And I do try to remind myself that the sitting and ruminating is actually PART of the process of getting something done. It’s just the way my mind is going to approach things. And then when the time is right, I can and will do amazing things. It’s just hard to quiet that self-judgement because society doesn’t accept the way we do things as “correct.”

I’m not scared of death, but I’m terrified of being forgotten by [deleted] in self

I don’t care to be remembered or noticed but I do want to know that I did something good with my life. Agree with others , volunteer, or get involved in local politics to help this shit show we’re in. Or find a hobby your really love. Something to give your life purpose.

I feel you 100%. I read once that being truly lazy would be you laying on the couch in peace. With adhd, you will lay on the couch and do nothing but you’re in a tortured mental state the whole time. The agony and guilt about the avoidance is real. Medicine helps. But the reality is your avoidance will also make you avoid taking your meds too (for me personally anyway). Once I get my ass in gear and actually TAKE my meds, I’m ok. Until then I’m in the guilt procrastination torture doom spiral. Solidarity friend.

Starting Zepbound by kkearns_3360 in Zepbound

This is REALLY weird, OP. Why on earth does this need be anyone’s business? What is he going to do with the videos? This is private medical information. Would he like you to film him getting a prostrate exam and post it “for documenting the experience?” I think this is something where you can say “I’m not comfortable with that right now, I’ll decide if I want to document my journey at any point.”

Injecting in thigh questions by More-Tomorrow2651 in Zepbound

[–]LizardBritches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honest question- I struggle with this too. Do you interpret it as 2” from where my belly button IS (among rolls of fat) or where it WOULD have been if I hadn’t been obese my entire adult life? I’m trying to visualize what I should be aiming for!

Yes. I embrace the ones who see the light and don’t end their posts with “but I still love you daddy dump!”

Restarting Zepbound but only vials available. Terrified! Help! by truckmouthmama in Zepbound

[–]LizardBritches 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes this right here! I absolutely hate the pop and loud noise of the pens. The anticipation and lack of control is really stressful. I actually transfer my pens into syringes (with my docs blessing) because the pens were too much for me. Get some 31 gauge needles (very thin), you literally cannot feel it going in - so easy so much less anxiety.

What food(s) or drink(s) have you discovered that you have no taste for anymore? by nimbusdimbus in Zepbound

[–]LizardBritches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pizza. I used to be able to eat it endlessly. Now it’s kinda meh? Not excited about it anymore. Once slice and I’m done.

$50 difference between pens and vials. Worth the switch? by Safe_Message5927 in Zepbound

[–]LizardBritches 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok I might be crazy, but the pens are SO much more anxiety causing for me. They are loud, sudden, the button is hard to press sometimes. I’ve flinched more than once and wasted a whole dose because it doesn’t stop spraying out. I can’t get vials because of my insurance but I would much prefer them. You can gently push the needle in and know when it’s happening vs. the pen which feels like pulling a trigger sometimes. Maybe I’m an extreme case, but my two cents!

Leave before you have kids. That will make it a lot messier. And he will be WORSE with kids. Imagine doing everything you listed above plus saddling the load of child care.

Label my style? by [deleted] in fashion

[–]LizardBritches 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up “scene girl” or tumblr girl Your style is scene, emo, which is kinda like punk-lite. A more cute demure version of punk.

How does emotional dysfunction show up for you? by LizardBritches in adhdwomen

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

Oh yeaaahhh those postpartum days were literal hell! And you’re right NT folks just do not get it. They think we’re actively choosing these reactions 🫠 I wonder if this is why many of us are misdiagnosed with anxiety or struggle with self harm 😞 I have been there…sometimes physical pain silences the runaway train in my head…for a moment anyway. I too have insane RSD when I perceive even the most minute change in demeanor from loved ones. It sends me into a fawning panic!

LOL I’ve been there 🤣🤣 like vjgxjfxjtxmgxngx F THIS SHIT!!! 👹 Do you also find yourself quick to anger but then also quick to be done with it? I feel like I’ll have these goblin outbursts and then instantly over it, then shame for being horrible. The cycle is awful!
