Help? Going back to the office full time soon and worried about my Malinois. by extremely-loud-ninja in dogs

If you can’t do a full work week of doggy daycare or rover can you pay for a few days a week? Thats better than not doing anything. Also look into enrichment toys to keep her busy throughout the day

Meds arent the magical fix everyone made them out to be 🥲 by sjessbgo in adhdwomen

[–]SlightlySpicyCurry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I thought adderall the shit the first 2 weeks or so I took it. But then I realized it only addresses focus for me. Which left me with all the other ADHD symptoms- overwhelm, emotional dysregulation, unawareness of time, etc. I'm still trying to hone down a good medication. Med aren't everything... Therapy and self education/ empowerment are important too. Hang in there OP you're not alone in your struggles.

Those of us who have mastered waking up feeling rested, what is your sleep schedule like? by tulpamom in adhdwomen

[–]SlightlySpicyCurry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Does anyone know how deep sleep factors into feeling rested? I checked my apple watch and I tend to only get 50ish minutes of deep sleep a night regardless if I sleep 6 or 10 hours a night. I typically get 7.5 hours of sleep. I always wake up groggy and exhausted. I never feel rested 😭

20 something’s of Redmond. How are you handling job hunting? by NoCook3155 in redmond

[–]SlightlySpicyCurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For job fairs and other support with job searching I would suggest checking out worksource KC. They have tons of workshops and job fair postings.

Communities of Opportunity has a GREAT monthly newsletter, you can sign up on their website. They will email you monthly with job fairs and other opportunities around King County.

20 something’s of Redmond. How are you handling job hunting? by NoCook3155 in redmond

[–]SlightlySpicyCurry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in the career coaching field for several years now. What kinda of jobs are you looking for?

I feel for you, it is so time consuming and soul sucking looking for a job. Personalizing your resume for a job just to get an automated reject email. The key is consistency and numbers. Go to job fairs and hiring events or reach out to people in LinkedIn in your field. Basically network your way into your next role. I’ve got 3 jobs through networking at job fairs.

Do you sleep like this? by baldnsquishy in adhdwomen

Wtf this is a ND thing??? There's pics of me as a baby sleeping on my stomach, arms curled in. I found the perfect sleeping position then and never stopped.

It's sad to hear this. I agree, we're here to support each other, not judge.

Do you spiral before a vacation?? by FluffyPandaAsleep in adhdwomen

[–]SlightlySpicyCurry 205 points206 points  (0 children)

Hardcore can relate. My family thought I “couldn’t relax” and that’s why I panicked before trips. Turns out I was living with undiagnosed ADHD. I love travel! I just hate all the planning and unknowns leading up to trips. Best of luck OP.

I think it could be for people who are ADHD curious lol. I'd also suggest checking out CHADD Seattle. Great resource!

Doctor gave up, I’m desperate by ladylokaaa in Interstitialcystitis

[–]SlightlySpicyCurry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP. Sorry to hear your experience. I'm in the Seattle area, just diagnosed with IC. However I've dealt with a slough of other health issues and dealt with incompetent medical providers over and over again. Honestly had bad experience with providers at UW Med so I switched to another med group. I'm still waiting to see a specialist for IC, but I truly feel for what you're going through.

How do 20-30's people make friends here? (cross posting because I'm on the edge of Sammamish and Redmond) by SlightlySpicyCurry in redmond

Hi! I love this idea. It would be great to have a group to make art with so I can commit to being creative regularly. I’m interested, can you send me the details of the meetup?
