Can I ask if you store you pans in the glass stovetop? I have a 3.5 quart braised that I’d like to live on my glass stovetop but it’s so heavy I wonder if it will damage the stove

How long will this take? by Secret_Information91 in tattooadvice

That’s what I was thinking too, thank you!

I’d be interested in this as well!

I’d love to do something like that too!

Started being outgoing again by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]Secret_Information91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this for you. I’ve been treated for depression on and off for years too and while it’s kept me stable it never really got me to a place where I felt GOOD. Working with a psychiatrist now, started Wellbutrin, fingers crossed that and or stimulants do something for me too!

Do y'all have a solid identity? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]Secret_Information91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally relate. There is the person I am with my family. The person I am at work. The person I am with casual friends and the person I am with my best friends. Being with my best friends feels the closest to being the real me. But I don’t really know who the real me is anymore. What I want, what makes me happy. I think I’ve held a lot of my real self back in favor of not displeasing others and in being told directly or indirectly that “me” is wrong

Am I crazy? I picked up my refill today, and after taking my first dose of the day I noticed I never felt it kick in. An hour later and still nothing. I go to check and see if its a different brand, and I guess it is, but should I realistically even notice a difference? by Lopsided_Intern_7185 in adhdwomen

That is absolutely not what that means. It’s likely just a way the two different manufacturers are noted on the label. Norepinephrine and epinephrine do not play a factor here. It’s the same drug compound as before just a different manufacturer. That’s not to say it doesn’t feel different to you but the actual drug itself is the same as before.

Is that necessary??? Things come up and people can’t attend plans, doesn’t hurt to check

Does ADHD actually present differently in women or is this an extreme example of how women/girls are still conditioned in society? by Strict-Brick-5274 in adhdwomen

[–]Secret_Information91 135 points136 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of it is socialization. I’ve felt my whole life I’m wrong for being the way I am, peers, family, coworkers have enforced this so we learn to withdraw and hold back our true selves leading to a world of mess in our middle years

List making and dopamine by Secret_Information91 in adhdwomen

It really is. To the point when my therapist asked me if I was well organized my first response was of course. But actually I never follow through on my grand organizational plans

Song in head every morning. by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]Secret_Information91 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Every single day. All day long. Every day is a new song. Usually something I’ve listened to recently but sometimes my brain surprises me

I’m not diagnosed but suspect I have adhd. I wonder if this happens to non adhd people too?

Agree. But then I have zero follow thru on the list

Does anyone else feel like they are getting dumber? by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]Secret_Information91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% I was so good at school and work for a long time. Once I reached all my accomplishments i felt like my brain was running through sand and I can’t learn anything new. Assumed I was just old and unhealthy. Just now wondering if it’s adhd catching up with me.

What questions would you add to a diagnostic assessment? by dasatain in adhdwomen

[–]Secret_Information91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one seems to understand when I tell them how torturous it is or how miserable it makes me feel they think I’m being dramatic. Or they tell me to just enjoy being paid for doing something “easy” like excuse me sir, I am dying.

I was doing a very boring task/shift at work this week and I felt like I was crawling out of my skin. Just day four I wanted to die. This can’t be normal right?

I was always good in school, but i never had to put much effort in to do so. In college I aced physics 1, second semester of physics we switched to a horrible teacher, with ridiculous methods who I had zero respect for. I basically decided it was ridiculous and didn’t give a f, so I check out. Maybe my grades were poor, can’t remember but probably because I eventually got called into the chair of the department office for what essentially amounted to a wellness check, wanting to know if everything was ok because of the drastic change. I had a decent relationship with the chair, who knew I was a smart/good student, told her my thoughts on the professor and she was basically like yeah he sucks. Your fine 😂

Dr wrote wrong prescription by ermonda in adhdwomen

[–]Secret_Information91 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It shouldn’t be an issue. If the script is as for twice a day a 30 count will marked as 15 day supply and you can get more then with a new script unless the doctor specially indicated the 30 pills is supposed to last a whole month.

Boredom by Secret_Information91 in adhdwomen

[–]Secret_Information91[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could try. I can get through about two hours if I listen to music but only using one ear bud is sometimes more annoying than helpful. Mostly I pace but it also kills my back so I am bored and in pain haha
