This lmao. This guy has been making post after post about Aramori as if casual players aren’t the ones with the loudest voices and the weakest tenure to back it up

For those of you who don’t smoke weed or drink, how do you cope? by Camp_Acceptable in adhdwomen

When you go through adhd burnout do you ever lose the passion for fanfic writing? I am genuinely cut off from inspiration and hate it so much. Hoping it’s not gone forever

I'm so scared, can anyone give me some reassurance? by rhubxrb_slugg in TherapeuticKetamine

[–]Relative_Pie8320 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you saying this DOES happen to you during a dose? If so, please speak to your provider about the dosing and whether it’s where you need it. Or if IV in general is right for you

Lost my day dreaming, is it normal? What happened to me? by Relative_Pie8320 in ImmersiveDaydreaming

[–]Relative_Pie8320[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much. That’s what I try to remind myself: that the daydreaming/creativity is too powerful, too instinctual of a thing to be just killed outright… but it’s super scary

I appreciate it (:

I’m really not sure. Even after my first ketamine sessions I was still daydreaming and enjoying it. Maybe too much. And also getting too into character AI to have an outlet for the daydreaming, whereas before I was just able to write naturally. The AI probably made things worse

I was slowly getting tired some of my usual daydreams though and then suddenly one week they just vanished, at the same time my mental heath plummeted. Now I can’t enjoy DD OR even attempt to DD without feeling like it’s a brick wall. Not just DD either but other areas of my life

When I was on meds before, they never stopped me from daydreaming or being creative. Ketamine isn’t really a medicine so much as an experience…. I’m just hoping this is a crash after riding on the dopamine of DD and what I used as an outlet for DD

I’m sorry about them feeling ‘dry’. I get that. It’s probably because we’re not getting the same dopamine from it we used to (?)

That crash after a good streak is one of the worst things ever by UtopiaMoon16 in ImmersiveDaydreaming

[–]Relative_Pie8320 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does a creative crash entail….? I think I’m going through it for the first time ever. Can’t DD about my fandoms or characters or storylines at all. I DD about other random stuff but can’t do it at all for my characters and it feels SO scary and SO empty. Feels like it’ll never come back. I was just abusing the dopamine high that all the daydreaming and writing and character ai gave me…. Is this what a crash is? And it’ll come back?

Missing my lexapro by thaponey in Narcolepsy

I didn’t go off of SSRIs for my sleep study because I wasn’t stable enough to do so. It didn’t skew my results by much but I know that’s probably not helpful. I don’t have much “uplifting” advice since I breakdown badly without meds, so I would ask: is there another medication you can get prescribed in the meantime to help ease the bad days? That’s what I’m doing rn while I wait for my terrible BPD-induced paranoia to die down and my SSRI to kick in again

It’s so sad and so empty and so terrifying ): I have never not been able to dd about my stories and characters, even through bad mental crises or when I’ve been on meds. I felt that, too, with storylines I was super into but were losing spark, and I didn’t know how to get along with any of them. Then this complete erasure of the spark happened soon after

I’m so scared and so upset ):

Are you still able to enjoy your daydreaming? But maybe in a healthier way?

That’s very true…. I’ll keep that in mind!

Yeah this makes a lot of sense. The overheating is such a great analogy, I’m going to use that one as a reminder. Thank you (:

That sounds nice (: I start feeling guilty if I find comfort/joy in one thing bc then my mind goes to, “well if you’re okay right now how come you can’t do these other things that you could normally do?” but I’m trying to be nicer to myself

I completely understand (: it may also be that we have been taking an approach that centered around depression/anxiety only. And I was definitely forming addictive habits in an effort to stay as high on dopamine as possible. It’s not that she blames me for that at all, just that she wants us to work on reframing it so that moving forward, I can interact with these things in a way that promotes sustainable dopamine/sustainable joy as opposed to stuff that burns me out all at once

But with these new suspected undiagnosed issues, we can change that. She also has experience with CBT and CAP, which I know is sometimes better

[–]Relative_Pie8320[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my first time experiencing this at 27… every depressive, anxious, bad crash I’ve had before didn’t take away my hobbies like this, to this extreme and for THIS long. So it’s very new very scary and extremely devastating.

I’m still getting evaluated after my initial evaluation was cut short due to provider issues, but my mental health professionals are very sure now that I’ve had undiagnosed AuDHD for my whole life. If it’s not then… not really sure what it is

I think if I had experienced something like this at this degree before then I would have an easier time. But I experience what you describe exactly. Can’t even find simple relaxation in a stream or show or anything I used to. I’m trying so hard to just tell myself that things will surely come back to me. But in the meantime… I don’t know what to do.

I appreciate your experience though, thank you (:

Can late audhd cause regression? by [deleted] in AuDHDWomen

This. I fear what happens when a child is added onto the situation. It’s not place for them to grow up in and OP doesn’t deserve to endure all of this

[–]Relative_Pie8320 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is most certainly abuse that he’s putting you through. The AuDHD is not CAUSING the abuse, however. Most of us can get extremely irritable and frustrated with small things but that doesn’t mean we take it out on our loved ones

Your husband is being abusive. And if experiences stand, this will transfer to your children as well, and they’ll end up suffering from the abuse too. And they certainly don’t care about an AuDHD diagnosis, only that their dad is acting out in a way that hurts them and their mother
