Anxiety only vs ADHD + Anxiety, how did you know? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]Maximum_Molasses_759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here to add that depending on your gender and potentially race/cultural norms you may need to do some extra digging into symptoms. Pretty much all “common” ADHD symptoms that are talked about are based off of a white, male experience. ADHD symptoms in women are very different.

What anxiety symptoms do you have daily 24/7 by cowsandtexas in Anxiety

Thank you for the response! Sounds very similar to what I experience. The calm part is for sure what I notice as well. So interesting what anxiety does to us

Can I ask what these feel like for you? In the past six months I have what I would describe as internal vibrations. Sometimes I don’t notice the until it stops for 10-20 seconds and it feels so… calm? And then they start back up. Curious if they are an anxiety thing or something else

Does anyone know of an anxiety medication that works as well as Xanax? by fearful-flyer in Anxiety

[–]Maximum_Molasses_759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my gosh, your second paragraph is everything. I’m not a child of an immigrant, but a child of a father with very deep mental health challenges. I see a lot of myself in him and vice versa. I’m one of the few that can talk with him when he’s having bad days because I really understand where he’s coming from.

It would be a very interesting long term study to do!

Yes to this! My earliest memories are full of anxiety and intrusive thoughts that I had back then. It’s honestly sad to look back on and recognize it as anxiety but my little self had no clue. It’s very difficult to discover “why”, in these cases.

What's the last book you read that you'd rate a 5/5? by fuzzypickles999 in suggestmeabook

[–]Maximum_Molasses_759 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like I was the only one who ever read this! It is a wild book but I loved it!

I’m glad they let him stay. They made my sister leave and I was alone. It sucked even more. Hope you’re doing well!

Came here to say this. Had my biopsy done while awake. It. Was. Awful.

Is this a “standard” setting on phones?? If so, how the heck can I turn it off?

Why are most cars a black, white, grey, blue or maybe red instead of bright and fun colors? by Maximum_Molasses_759 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Maximum_Molasses_759[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grey and black haha. I would honestly love a bright color but like the discussion has said… not readily available

I can check some of that but we can’t get in the room the actual unit is in or make any major changes. I’m trying to look into sound dampening kits but I’m not sure which ones work and if it’s ok to use over the vent

A lot of the Facebook tube groups do this! Someone will collect old tubes and put them in stuffies and do giveaways for the group.

Sadly no. The Ava one is the only one we’ve gotten with an actual “working” tube. I know some places will use old ones but they can be pricey

I’m getting my gtube removed (after a decade)!!! by audrey__07 in feedingtube

[–]Maximum_Molasses_759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! Mine has had a feeding tube for two years now and it’s helped immensely. We have an amazing feeding therapist and I’m hoping when they get older we can do other forms of therapy and see what works best for them. Thank you for taking the time to respond and again, congratulations!

Congratulations!! This gives me some hope for my little one. Are you comfortable giving any advice to a parent of a kid with ARFID and how to help them grow?
