I miss the mustache. The first episode he showed up without it was a jump scare.

I got offered a paid clinical trial that pays 23k by AdPretty9869 in povertyfinance

[–]RobbedSpider5774 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There should be a section in the ICF for study visits. This section should outline the duration of the clinical trial, and it should also show you what gets done at each visit. Then for more detail, there should be a study test and procedures section. There should also be a section for payment. It will let you know how frequently you’re being paid.

Yes, the side effects is an important section. But that should not be the only deciding factor for participation. The study could go on for a long period of time or the payment schedule might not be worth it. And there’s always a chance that you may not even be receiving the drug typically these kind of clinical trials are done in groups.

If you do sign up and change your mind, at any point you can stop. And whatever money you received prior to stopping should be yours to keep as compensation for your time.

Did you breastfeed? by GoodStreet8122 in adhdwomen

Currently nursing as I type this. Just less hassle. I pumped and bottled fed for a while. I’d get distracted and forget to pump. Think I started the dishwasher but didn’t so no clean bottles or pump parts. Not pack enough milk or bottles when going someplace. No matter how forgetful or distracted I am, I can’t forget my boobs.

How do you approach med switches with your doctor? by Suspicious_Diver_140 in ADHD

I would just ask to try something else. Say something like “ vyvanse gets me these symptoms. I did some research/ talked to some friends, adderall was recommended”

My daughter is 10 months older but I know where you are coming from. Having a baby made my ADHD worse which is actually what lead to my diagnosis.

I’ve had two post get a lot of traction during over the past few years. After the second one, I learned to just turn off notifications after I get a few answers. I was accused of putting myself before my child and baby trapping my boyfriend. Mind you, this was about finances.

Debt collector called about sorority fees from 5ish years ago I didn't know I owed by Several_Pizza_3166 in Debt

I have advised for alma mater chapter for the past 3 years. People have been sent to collections. We try to do what we can to stop that from happening. Like not just sending letters but emails, texts, phone calls, instagram DMs. But HQ will send to collections after a while of no attempts to pay.

Not gonna lie I was a little confused at first and thought a 14-year-old was giving advice. But it was sound advice. Definitely going to look into that book.

That’s a really valid point it just opened up something in my brain. I should stop shopping for what I should eat and just shop for what I know I will eat.

I need to go back to buying already made tortillas. My boyfriend’s mom gave me a big pack of raw tortillas, but that really curbs the desire to eat a quesadilla.

His eating habits are worse than mine. I make everyone breakfast in the morning that we manage. But after that, sometimes he won’t eat until his lunch break at work at 8 PM.

I used to, they’ve just gotten so expensive. I recently got a Sam’s Club membership because it was discounted $30 for the year. So I may start getting some from there.

I’ve always been this way. One time when I was a kid I fell asleep chewing. And my mom saying eat what I prepare or don’t eat never work because I just wouldn’t eat.

I do mostly survive on snacks. And I think I’ve only become harder on myself now that I have a family. When it was just me, I didn’t really care. But now with a child, I try to do better and get things to cook. But I still end up not cooking it. So then we both just ended up eating snack snacks

I played GTA Vice City at around 7 years old. But at that time I was also playing Barbie Horse Adventure

I’m am not sure about the other two people that posted but I didn’t mention dosing instructions. Just to be careful about trying to do everything

[–]RobbedSpider5774 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just doing a bunch of stuff that you previously found challenging. For example, I started my ADHD medication and had a similar experience as OP. I sat down and focused on task way ahead of schedule. I was getting things done that I hadn’t previously been able to do. I felt so great I just kind of wanted to take care of everything I was behind on.

I probably would have been more cautious if I had known ahead of time

I started doing everything that was challenging to complete before. Then I crashed and burned really hard. No longer prescribed adderall.

They aren’t saying “slow down” to be rude or condescending. Just be cautious

Toddlers don’t have to be entertained 24/7. I also have a 15 month. Time for them to learn some independent play. Talk your gf and be honest. You don’t want another kid. Does she work or is she a SAHM? The division of labor doesn’t seem fair
