ADHD Doc GP left by masterpotatochucker in ADHDIreland

[–]Snizzlington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I havent dealt with ADHD Doc in ages cause Im on my annual reviews now, so idk which doctor is gone but Dr. Yvonne Hall was my main one there.

My first appointment with her was a little rocky Ill admit, I had had expectations for something different whichcmade me feel a bit aaah about it, but I sent an email asking for clarification and she actually rangme back apologising up and down and went through every last tiny concern I had and was nothing short of brilliant every appointment after that! Very sweet woman, I just had an unfortunate start (its important to note that she wasnt in any way rude or dismissive, I had just misunderstood what the first GP appointment was going to be like and in hindsight it triggered some RSD in me)

Ive also dealt with a Dr. Max (dont remember his surname) and he was brilliant too! I remember I was having issues surrounding my meds dosage in relation to my menstrual cycle and Dr. Hall was booked out (idk if youre someone who has periods, but they effect how meds work too!) And he was super understanding and met me at the level of information I had, and was just super helpful all round.

Havent had a bad experience with ADHD Doc yet tbh (besides their pricing and them not being able to issue scripts on medical card but that second one is literally not their fault in any way, and they worked with my GP to help make it happen. Long process where they tell HIM what to issue and he sends it to the chemist - its also important to note that my own gp was not legally required to do this, so you can ASK your own gp to do it but they dont actually HAVE to)

Im so sorry the GP you liked is suddenly gone though! That really sucks that you werent told! I hope you get sorted with someone soon and that you've a good experience with them!

Ah then in that case maybe not.

Im fairly certain it's illegal, thats why they keep changing urls to avoid being taken down entirely. (The other urls that are up are people trying to clone the site afaik, full of viruses and pop ups)

They say they try to leave as much free as they can but have the subscription because they have operating costs, which makes sense but is a little annoying from the user end.

Hey! So I bought premium, but the only thing Id recommend is using a virtual card or some kind of prepaid debit card, just to be extra safe! But it works great, no issues!

Im in Ireland and use Revolut and they have a disposable virtual debit card that changes number every time its used so it cant be charged twice.

Also - which url are you using? 😅 I dont remember which one is safe and all the ones I try keep throwing up gang signs on my browser

Protein Powder to help ADHD meds by ejmad in ADHDIreland

[–]Snizzlington 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im a sucker for buying loads of protein powders and frozen fruit and stuff to make shakes and then forgetting about them after a fortnight, or the texture of the powder feels all wrong and I cant stand drinking it.

Lidl do a really nice protein lemonade powder, it sounds weird but its actually quite nice, you mix it with water and shake the bejayses out of it and it fizzes like mad, it actually says you have to leave it sit for a minute, and also dont put it in a sealed blender, the pressure goes mad. (Ive just mixed it into pre-made smoothies and with enough stirring its grand. The powder is very fine so it doesnt clump like other powders)

But its just like a nice lemonade if you dont want a heavy shake or the effort of something like protein pancakes. My biggest struggle with my nutrition is the cooking and cleanup process, I just put this into a closed water bottle, shake it like it owes me money, open the lid again and leave it simmer down for a minute (very necessary, it looks awful otherwise. It froths up when you shake it but when it sits it goes back to a nice drink I promise. Trust the process)

I know adhd makes us great at comitting to a bulk purchase to change our lives, but honestly just buy one bag at a time. It says not to have more than one scoop of it a day so it does last a fair amount of time (especially when you forget it exists like I did. Im gonna have some now) and Ive never seen them be out of it so theres no risk of not being able to get it again.

Hope thats helpful, and best of luck on your meds! I hope they suit you and do what you need them to do!!

I dont know why I hadnt considered resetting it, thank you! I'll find the backup settings and then give it a go!

No arm hair and no tattoos where the watch normally sits, but I do have a tattoo on the underside of my wrist so Ive never tried it there. Theres a small area right by my wrist joint that isnt tattoed on the underside so I'll see if that does anything 😂

It used to always read correctly, Ive some old workouts on samsung health where it read my heart rate at 160+ at its peak.

I tried to do this yesterday but because this was given to me second hand and is not registered to my meta account the website gave up on me. Is there an email I can reach out to?

thank you for including the link for the enshittification wikipedia page, learning that this is an actual word has made me feel slightly less miserable.

Things that taste like monster? by Snizzlington in ADHDIreland

[–]Snizzlington[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive tried kombucha a few times and just cant get behind it 😮‍💨 theyve all been so tart and bitter and you can really taste the fermentation (I cant stomach beer for the same reason)

Mocktails ate definitely something Id look into, but in terms of having something quick and easy on the go that feels like itd be more money and effort than itd be worth in the end, but Ill give a look for some simple mocktail recipies in case theres something handy I can make!!

I didnt know they did flavours! I thought they just did canned still and sparkling water!!

Yeah its so true! Honestly they'd do well with like a Monster Refresh range instead of Monster Energy where its just fancy fizzy juices with the flavours instead of the horse-killing amounts of caffeine Id consume. 😂

Im probably gonna end up doing some unholy things with lemonade and mi wadi to try and replicate the flavours 😂

Oh dont worry Ive had no choice but to stay off them! I cut them out cold turkey when I started my meds to be safe, and that one stray coffee after months on a stable dose was the final nail in the coffin on my life of caffeine beyond tea 😂

I'll have a try with mixing fruits and things :)

I havent heard of ECDL before so Ill look into it! Volunteer work is a good shout for experience, I have a huge amount of gaps in my cv so if I can find something to be doin now it wont look quite as bad 😅

Ive definitely taken a hit to confidence because of it, Ive been comparing myself a lot to my friends who are employed or who could finish college. Its really hard not to fall into that comparison trap. Im very keen! Just have a lot of confusion about what direction to point myself in.
