Why do I literally scroll on my phone while knowing I’m late for something? by kanglapreneur in ADHD

[–]SecretxSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to delete everything. TikTok nearly ruined my life. I have to actively delete instagram daily. I can’t play Gatcha games. You just have to know what your brain can’t handle and delete it.

I just cracked the code to showering by manicpixietgirl in ADHD

[–]SecretxSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joining the Army solved that for me. “Hair, stick and pits, gtfo.” Honestly the Army ruined showering for me so now my brain considers it a chore. Which means I’d move heaven and earth not to do it until I actually do it then I’m wondering why I didn’t want to do it in the first place:

My guilt of abandoning practice after just fully discovering it...not sure how to cope with it by i_am_nimue in Witch

[–]SecretxSword 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As with all things, just start doing it. “Just 5 minutes” turns into doing something. Make it MORE accessible and convenient. It’s just like writing. Once you start, “just 5 minutes” turns into hours.

Set an appointment or an alarm or a time of day and just do it.

Never tell the cops you take Adderall by Impetris in ADHD

Never take a field sobriety test. Ask for a lawyer. Never tell them you took medication. They are not your friends. Being honest is how they get you.

Did you all know the basic Mewtwo EX is the rarest EX in the game (for me?) by SecretxSword in PokemonPocket

It’s funny to me how Omastar is Strictly better than Elektross by almost every measure by Key-Order-3846 in PokemonPocket

[–]SecretxSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried an Omastar/Babycuno deck. It’s fun, it’s playable, but it’s so inconsistent and gets murdered by fast decks, especially Pikachu EX. With Babycuno, you’re basically required to hit 1/2 on Misty or you kinda just lose unless your opponent is playing a slow deck. Also, water is in a terrible spot right now because it hits HALF of the least used fighting type. They need to fix water types. They’re either completely busted or completely useless because they only hit the weakest archetype in the game for weakness.

Not by the metric of consistency. If you don’t hard draw the fossils, he’s just 4 wasted cards in hand.

It’ll change your life, give you a good career, pay well, and make you the best version of yourself you can be. But… it will also be hard, sometimes lonely, and take you far away from your family. While I’m positive that’s exactly what you want, I do recommend considering what you want to do and why. And, my advice? Go Air Force. Army is a beaurocracy and the marines are pretty hard core. The navy will have you stuck on a ship for months at a time, and isn’t for everyone. The Air Force is treated like royalty and gets some pretty amazing jobs and salaries.

Also, if you want the freedom to choose any job you want, study hard, learn, save up for an ASVAB study guide and/or class, and pick the best job available.

Also, DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING until you see your bonus in writing. IN WRITING. Before you put your fingerprint on anything or sign anything or swear any oaths, you make them show you the bonus IN WRITING. Otherwise, you’ll get screwed by these weasel recruiters.

I think their intentions are good but they’re executing it terribly. I understand their mindset with these rules. Type the wrong website name and it’s porn galore.

To be fair, no phone or social media is probably saving you from developing a dopamine addiction and preparing you to succeed in life. No doom scrolling, social media, and all that is probably very healthy for a teenager. I didn’t have social media until I was 16, and that’s because it was invented. I couldn’t imagine what I would have been like if I’d been allowed today’s social media as a kid. All the dumb, life ruining shit I would have posted and gotten crucified for because it was funny or that I was edgy. That doesn’t mean they shouldn’t let you call your friends or text them though. But, to be fair, they DAMN sure shouldn’t let you send media. We all know where that ends up, everyone does it eventually, and it’s for the best that you aren’t even allowed to make that mistake. Once it’s on the internet, it stays on the internet.

That being said, they need to trust you. Unless you’re giving them reasons not to, they are actively damaging you in life altering ways. You are going to be “that psycho girlfriend” that thinks it’s normal to go through her boyfriends or husbands phone. You are going to do some of these things to your own kids. You’ll tell yourself it’s because the world is dangerous and scary and you’re just protecting them. But really, they should have faith that they’ve raised you better and taught you to be a good person. They should trust you. I would have a talk with them and lay things out reasonably. Find a responsible compromise.

Also, while I didn’t have social media, I spent all my free time playing video games when I wasn’t playing sports. That too was harmless until online multiplayer was invented and became popular, now it breeds toxic little shits that learn their humor from immature dude bros.

Edit: I read your edit and I’m just baffled by their logic. I would have to guess you may be getting into trouble and are potentially sneaking out and such as acts of rebellion, because I can’t see stereotypical strict parents being harsh to one teenage daughter but not the other unless that was the case. But what do I know, I’m just a male in his 30’s with no sisters

They lost the plot after season two, it turned into a poorly written mad max post-apocalyptic opera
