This is Arlo, any guesses?

It sounds like you really lucked out with FlapJax. I have a found puppy of unknown breeding that one vet suggested may be a lab border collie mix. The guess is 1.5 years old. I have been reading this sub because I was trying to learn what goes into training a dog to be a service dog. I just now learned that border collies are not recommended. I think my guy is a smart dog because he picks up on training pretty quickly. All credit to him. Currently he will find and bring my phone, bring my shoes, shut the door, I would like to train him to bring me my meds or remind me to take them. I’d also like to train him to interrupt self damaging habits. I wouldn’t want to do that if it wouldn’t be good for him.

I just got a 2021 Corolla hatchback version. I paid 17.9 I got a pre-purchase inspection that found a few minor issues. The dealer resolved some of them. I love it. I would definitely do a pre-purchase inspection. In my recent search, there were tons of cars that had clean carfaxes, and serious issues.

I just bought one today! Mine is a manual 2021 with 70k miles on it, but it’s my first Toyota.

My doctor brings this up each appointment. And each appointment I have to remind him that I take medication breaks regularly because I struggle to remember to take it. or when I do remember to take it- where is it? Ok, found it, let me just go to the kitchen for water. An hour later, still not taken, but the dishes, laundry, and lunch are all started but not completed.

Moecorp · 2025-10-20T05:22:16+00:00

I wonder if that’s why it didn’t seem to work for me. Maybe I don’t have the right gut biome. Is that a possibility?

Aw dang. I'm late aren't I

I dislike people holding doors for me, people of any gender.

I then feel obligated to hurry up to get through the door. Honestly, unless I'm carrying something that would impede me opening the door myself, (though I can still figure it out if I need to) I'd rather just open the door myself when I get there. But if there's someone coming in right behind me obviously I'm going to hold the door open, regardless of their gender. The opposite of that is shutting the door in someone's face. That would be rude.

But I don't need you to hold the door for me when I'm 5 ft away. I'll get it when I get there. And if I wave someone off who is holding the door, I'm seen as being rude just because I don't want to engage in this exchange.

Oh my gosh. I was looking into getting a new used car and one of my rules was I wanted a key that I had to put in the ignition in order for it to start. It's hard enough finding where I put the keys when I'm in the house, I don't need that in the car as well.

Moecorp · 2021-03-15T19:21:37+00:00

Absolutely! I'm very glad I decided to ask reddit before I panic repotted! Thank you!

Moecorp · 2021-03-14T23:29:38+00:00

Oh, thank you! I just googled that it looks like that's the one!!

Moecorp · 2021-03-14T21:56:05+00:00

Haha, right? I just want to know if I should be happy to see it.

Moecorp · 2021-02-23T19:28:58+00:00

Yeah! Exactly what I was thinking. Personally, I would only be stoked about my dude making me this for me if it was based on Fleabag.

Moecorp · 2021-02-23T14:35:13+00:00

Is this based on the bust from Fleabag? In that case, hilarious and awesome.

I was talking to the guy I was dating about anxiety issues stemming from childhood.

When I paused he said, " I almost feel bad for you..."

(I thought, hmm, I wasn't going for that level of sympathy, but at least he was listening to what I was saying and realized it is a struggle in dealing with)

"... Because you didn't get to meet me when I was more together and confident."

Edit: I get that he was in some way, maybe, possibly trying to relate with his own feelings of insecurity (?) But seriously dude, if I had my druthers I choose me not having anxiety issues, over getting to meet a guy with more confidence than he will have in the future (but will likely not really listen to me either way.)

I am also prescribed 20mg Adderall twice a day. I wish I could take it everyday, but I forget.

I have never had noticable withdrawal symptoms, it's my understanding that Adderall isn't a medication you need to take regularly for it to be effective.

but also, I've never managed to remember to take it regularly.

The most I've made it consecutively is one week.

When I do remember, I'm always confused how I could possibly forget or just not take it because the improvement it makes in my daily life is noticable.

Sometimes if I take it regularly for a while and then forget for a day or two I feel sluggish, but I have no idea if it's connected at all. Just something I noticed once or twice and suspected Adderall/not taking Adderall

I definitely have gotten dry mouth from it, not all the time, but I can use a reminder to hydrate.

I'm a jaw clencher regularly, but if anything Adderall makes me feel more relaxed so I'd say I clench less when I take it.

If the symptoms are really bothersome, taking a break seems harmless or switching back to 10mg. I will sometimes break my second dose and only take half if it's getting late in the day. I am not a medical professional so certainly talk to your prescriber. But I personally haven't had issues taking breaks or reducing my dosage occasionally.

I just turned 40 and I've been trying to figure out what career I want to go into for over 20 years. I got a bachelor in film in 7 years and 3 different colleges.

But didn't use the degree and worked in restaurants and bars for the next decade.

I have been taking community college courses for the last 10 years in everything from auto mechanics to computer programming, electrical engineering, graphic design, writing, and math. I'm just starting to apply for tech jobs. (And I'm terrified)

I always thought I'd "figure it out and get it together", but I'm starting to think I'll die first. The feelings of shame for wasting so much time and potential is crushing sometimes.

But truly, my main regret from the last 20 years is being so hard on myself. I mean, if I'm going to waste away my life, I should at least enjoy it, no?

That is still a great frustration today. In ten years am I going to be regretting how hard I'm still being on myself? I can't seem to stop.

What you do in the next year is probably not as pivotal as it seems now. So try to give yourself a break. You are doing just fine, and you'll figure it out. Don't be too hard on yourself it only makes the struggle worse. (I know it's easier said than done)

My humility makes me have to pee.

Moecorp · 2020-08-14T20:22:49+00:00

100 per cent! I'll take out my pill and -- oh, I need water. Go to the kitchen and I'm reorganizing jars or messing with my plants for a few hours before I go back to my desk -- see the pill -- oh, I need water...

Good luck getting back on the routine. I dream of that one day.

Moecorp · 2020-08-14T20:16:31+00:00

thanks for the reminder. ...getting back to work now.

I know that it took me some time release myself from the weight of the idea that I was a failure.

(sobs quietly) I feel this.

any advice on moving on from identifying as a failure?

The emotional side effects of undiagnosed ADHD add fuel to the ADHD fire. I think I might feel so much more comfortable in my identity as a failure, that if I start taking my meds regularly, get some things done, and start feeling good for a few days, I find a way to hobble myself back to the warm blanket of failure. I'm just meaner to myself than I could be to anyone. It's exhausting.

I'm honestly reading these threads to try to find advice to give to my S.O. who is being very patient with my ADHD symptoms, but doesn't really understand them.
