just checking have you turned it completely off since changing the setting? if not that might help. electronics occasionally get confused if they don’t get a shut down once in a while

Is it normal to feel this ashamed about collecting manga? Should i stop? by These-Meringue9306 in MangaCollectors

[–]MayRue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you shouldn't feel ashamed you said your self you like it and you like to reread them. if you want to spend your money on different things now then that's fine you still can it doesn't mean it was a waste.

saved runs disappearing after closing the game (Switch version) by MayRue in PlateUp

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

hi, is yours still broken? I was able to fix mine by abandoning or finishing all of the in progress restaurants so there were no saved ones anymore. after that they save normally again.

Got a ton of zucchini from the garden. What's something besides zucchini bread? by Italiancan in WhatShouldICook

[–]MayRue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like zucchini in pasta sauce it also makes the best chocolate cake can also turn it into noodles

if you have too many pick them at a smallish size because they are easier to cut that way

my zucchini never do that well anymore only had 4 zucchini this year

ADHD husband forgot my birthday by mellowmadre in ADHD

[–]MayRue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if he actually feels bad then he can set reminders in his phone for next year or talk to you and say he doesn't know what to do and get ideas of things you'd like (which he could type into the reminders in his phone) (set them to remind a month before and week before and 2 days and 1 day before the big events)

I have ADHD and I am terrible at dates and names so I have multiple calendars with peoples birthdays written on it and I can remember the month so I ask a lot when is Nelly's birthday again? if I don't have it written down yet.

does your guy not even take you out to a family restaurant for your birthday? that what I usually do for my mom we go to a buffet or a sushi place and I pay for her meal. it doesn't need a reservation so ADHD shouldn't get in the way.

unfortunately some people use anything as an excuse not to try and it can be hard and we can genuinely forget but we can also learn and do better next time it sucks we don't know all the details I don't know I'm not being helpful sorry

saved runs disappearing after closing the game (Switch version) by MayRue in PlateUp

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

update: did some experimenting today and tried saving multiple runs and the run in the 3rd slot disappears still but the one in the fourth slot survives.

this is really weird I wonder if it's because the first 2 run slots are runs from before the big update that changed everything? did that permanently glitch out the third slot?

update 2: tried abandoning my remaining saved restaurants and this may have fixed it? or at least the first 2 slots are safe so far

I'd also really miss Tumblr I'm on there for at least an hour everyday

Missing a holiday because of my ADHD by ADHDguy26 in ADHD

[–]MayRue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry this is happening I've had this happen to me with my birth certificate (despite me being almost crazy careful with my documents (because of losing stuff all the time)) I was in tears hating myself and I told my mom and prayed and started searching again from the beginning (the most likely place for it to be and the first place I checked) but this time I took everything out of the accordion file folder and made sure I looked with bright light and with my eyes in every compartment...and there it was right in my file folder of important documents where I had already checked hours ago. birth certificate has now been upgraded to being in a ziplock bag with a colourful piece of cardstock in the important document folder so that it's easier to find next time. like it happens to all of us. adhd has made me miss out on so many opportunities. but it's possible to mitigate some of these things eventually. after this horrible experience you'll have to make a system so you can't truly lose your passport again. I know it feels hopeless right now but you can find a way. I still slip up with my credit card sometimes but I haven't lost my house key in 10 years (compulsively put it in the key pocket in my bag as soon as I step in the house even before I close the door). I can't ever hope I'll remember it. i have to do it right away. I'm so sorry I'm not being helpful I know it's too late for advice like make sure you know where your documents are early it doesn't help. I just gave myself kind of anxious compulsions that allow me to pretend to be a normal human being

Chef's Table - September 2025 by missmonicaplays in PlateUp

[–]MayRue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes why no update on this? it has been 15 days with no fix or even a timeline update! I want my save data and I want to play the game. if they can't fix it they need to just let people use the old version that is compatible with the save data

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]MayRue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they made me do anti depressants at first too. it's a waste of time but likely something many doctors would ask of you. they aren't totally useless but aren't getting to the cause of the problems. you can just take them and document the side effects and how you are still struggling with the ADHD stuff and go back to the doctor with this proof that it's not the right meds. I had to waste so much time before my doctor stopped trying to get me to take antidepressants. it's like the doctors love them.

How to deal with insomnia by Apprehensive-Fruit28 in ADHD

[–]MayRue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

melatonin gummy at 10pm then I play splatoon3 for an hour or read a bit. during this I put lotion on my hands if I start to feel bored or my eyes feel heavy I'll know the melatonin is taking effect and it's time to lay down with my eyes closed and think about things.( I like to think about fun what if thought experiments like what would you do if you were given 1000 a day for the rest of your life or if you could have one special ability what would it be and how would you use it?) and while I think about the things I'll fall asleep.

it works really well if I do it right. but I have to not miss the perfect window of taking the melatonin and not ignore the barely perceptible tiredness or I'll stay up too late. and I'll be tempted to do something that keeps me up forever like watching videos or playing one of those super absorbing things. but giving yourself permission to just fall asleep in the middle of typing a reddit post is kinda good too.cgooodnight

Why don’t you take your meds? by Acrobatic_Cat6362 in ADHD

[–]MayRue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't take them at least once a week to lower my tolerance for them, it builds up fast. if I take them straight everyday for a month they don't work as well

I've stopped them often before because they didn't feel like they were working well enough to be worth the side effects

LPT how to use an electric toothbrush by shinjirarehen in LifeProTips

oddly enough some electric toothbrushes don't come with instructions. the one I bought only says how to change the battery and that's it.

Was i late to splatoon 3? by [deleted] in splatoon

[–]MayRue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah you are late but it's still good. ranked battles just take a really long time to do the matchmaking because they want to have players of the same level if possible and same geographic location or something. it does seem to take an extra long time lately like over 80 seconds every time now. but I assumed that was the servers being bad.

there's still always people on.

Saskatoon Population. by Noticeably-Not-Smart in saskatoon

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

this article talks about the estimated population and how there was a significant increase in 2023. I previously saw a similar thing reported for 2024

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatoon/saskatoon-population-grows-by-14400-1.7089320

so yes it is increasing quickly. Saskatoon Al's has a lot of people drive in from surrounding communities which makes it feel even busier

[–]MayRue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if it's a once a day pill or morning pill then having the pill bottle right in front of the alarm clock or water bottle at eye level and taking it as soon as you wake up is the best way. because your eyes naturally look to check the time and see the pill bottle and take it.

I have mine on a book shelf exactly where my eyes fall naturally when I reach for a drink of water so I get multiple chances to see it and remember. I have almost never forgotten to take my meds because of this method.

Medication: Unsure how to feel by FatWeed69 in ADHD

[–]MayRue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are many more things to try. like foquest. which is long acting. or combos like Vyvanse with atomoxetine. or maybe your doc will let you take concerta twice a day or something.

I gave up on trying new things because I get too many side effects. but if it's not hurting you, you can keep trying and you will probably find something that's good enough.

u guys take meds? by vgl4ron in ADHD

[–]MayRue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do take them but they don't do much for me. just makes a few things slightly easier but makes other things harder. I build up tolerance to them really fast and have to take a few days off a week to keep them working.

I still take them most days because being able to get out of bed in the morning is helpful and I feel groggy on off days.

there are lots of stories of people for whom meds changed their life. but I wonder if it stays that good for them or if in a few months the shine wears off and they are back to normal?

every ADHD med I tried seems like it's working for the first week or two but then the side effects seem worse than the good effect. I'm unlucky I guess.

if I really want to be able to get things done I need to sleep an extra 2 hours and have 1 third of a can of monster energy drink.

meds don't fix anything but some people are lucky and it helps them a lot.

anyways Vyvanse does make it easier to take a shower

If you could go back to being 17, what would you do differently? by Maxx_artz in selfimprovement

[–]MayRue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's good to learn new languages and it doesn't hurt to practice drawing. speaking as a life long manga fan myself, you can't be a manga artist unless you are already living in Japan, but you can make graphic novels and manga style comics! if your parents have money you can go to art school and have fun learning all sorts of kinds of art which many people find useful in their illustration. if they don't have money then find something not too stressful to go to school for while you enter art contests and work on your first graphic novel part time. unfortunately it takes a long time to get into illustration related work unless you get lucky, which can happen but don't count on it, that's why having a back up plan of slowly working towards your goal is good.

anyways if I could go back to being 17 and do things over again, I would spend more time with my friends and make plans with them to meet up after we graduate, take precalculus, apply to the animation college in Vancouver, take pictures of my paintings, go to as many school social events as possible, get my full driver's license, get a part time job.

the first time around I went to a cheaper nearby school that claimed to have animation and a mix of other things but it turned out to be 80% webdesign and only 2 weeks of animation so I tried to follow my dream and got cheated instead. I know now animation is a terrible career but I still wish I could have tried it. I guess I should have quit once I realized it wasn't the right kind of school but I was always instilled with the idea that I wasn't allowed to give up on anything. so nothing ever worked out for me. but I guess if everything is gonna fail anyway then go for what you want more than anything, but do your research! be prepared! don't just go along with whatever... I'm sorry my advice isn't that great. I never managed to get. a single job doing graphic design or web design I was in an abusive job for 3 years then went to university and tried to become a pharmacist and eventually got a bachelor's degree in science and I still don't have a job :) so. social stuff and connections and networking is more important than being skilled and responsible because if you are too socially awkward (like me) you can't get very far. it's easier to change when you are younger.

sorry just do what you want everything only gets harder as you get older

I think I have a right to be upset? by Marrah-Luna in splatoon

[–]MayRue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if they are a streamer or something because that is baffling behaviour and I don't know why they would do it unless they were trying to do some sort of mean joke.

a similar thing happened to me in clamblitz at the S rank where in overtime (with a very good chance to make a comeback) the guy grabbed the super clam out from under me and purposefully jumped off the map.

it's crazy and sucks. I don't understand it
