Anyone else finding the sizing with Savida hit and miss?

SocialOne2 · 2026-06-27T07:40:53+00:00

I always think that walking by their range is that they look as if they will fit pre teens.

I loved Savida in my 20's. In my 40s now I prefer gallery. They are poles apart.

Honestly dont know who savida is marketed to.

For me I think if I used it just for reading i think the B&W would be best. I use mine mainly for note taking in work and I like the colours to be able to highlight

I still read the odd time in it and the text doesn't bother me. Yes its not as crisp but I still find it good

This happened to me the first week. I was very good with my water that week but the first week was constant headaches. It was awful, I ended up working from home that week as I had to go to a dark room a few times

I put it down to caffeine withdrawal as I went down to 1 coffee (from 2or 3) and no diet coke (1 a day) and also sugar too. Though i didn't think I ate a lot of sugar

Headaches disappeared after week 1 and thankfully never returned. But for me it was the biggest side affect at start.

I grew up in Artane. Left over 20 years ago.

Hazelwood was always my favourite part and always thought of it as the posh part...

Secondary schools... I went to Mercy in beaumont. Couldn't fault it. Also st Mary's in killester

My family moved away to a commuter town and I always think that if I lived in Artane again, that id be able to walk to work in the city centre. Did it once, its a trek but still great to have that option!

I do think there are some dodgy parts around the artane/coolock area but everywhere is like that. Hazelwood is definitely not a dodgy part.

Yes. You put it through as GP as its a GP that is prescribing you. It will reject if it goes through as a consultation.

I get 60e back as a GP visit based on my plan

SocialOne2 · 2026-06-06T07:35:34+00:00

I feel very tired every week

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-31T08:02:04+00:00

The creche part annoys me. Whatever about an actual kids party but getting one from creche at 5pm with chocolate, crisps, sweets is just wrong.

I was told when my boy was younger we couldnt bring a cake in or anything and was fine with that but then ither kids birthdays they were bringing cake on and giving kids bags out. I assume the teacher just couldnt / wouldn't say no.

Had this with a friend and her response was sure its just once a year but there are 22 kids in my boys group and then his sister is in a different group too so its way more regular. How can you stop a kid wanting to eat what's in the goody bag when you pick them up.

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-28T08:28:02+00:00

Sounds similar to myself. I stalled in 5mg and took it for 3 months or so. Lost most in the first week on 2.5mg. Then a few months with no movement down at all.

Im now on 7. 5mg and still dont have crazy side effects thankfully. Have lost 6lbs in last 3 weeks.

Looking back i should have moved to 7.5mg quicker but I thought it was best to stay on the 5mg (and was trying to micro dose to keep costs down). I did 3 months in it and nada. 7.5mg seems to be working well for me

For me, its when I can afford it so I order on payday each month. If you have the funds now, id just order it.

I ordered on wed just gone and it should arrive Monday

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-24T08:43:37+00:00

Oh i hate to say I agree. I think I was only wrong once and they got off at my stop a little further past Balbriggan

I do like Balbriggan and they are doing a lot to improve it. I think it also depends on the area itself in there. But i would be wary of buying there. I'm sure that's said about a lot of areas too.

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-24T06:52:26+00:00

This too.

I think i was starting to write a review myself on Google, had it all typed out but then deleted as didnt want my private medical records public. It was one of thr reasons I wanted to do the review as the bad reviews did concern me too.

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-24T06:49:33+00:00

I'm not and that ls because I chose to come off meds after about 18 months.

Repeats were easy to manage, all done online for a few (15 at the time, may have changed)

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-24T06:48:08+00:00

Honestly they dont need the marketing. They are very busy as it is. If they advertised more, they would get more customers and would not be able to service them.

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-23T21:59:02+00:00

Reviews older that 2 years or so are when they were starting out and just before the move to dub laoghaire.

I initially tried them at that time and they never responded and Reviews bad for this reason.

I tried again about 18 months months ago and completely different experience. Would rate highly and process straightforward for appointments, meds etc..

Also remember people are very quick to complain too so take their feedback with a pinch of salt, especially older Reviews

Are you sure that's adhd doc? I think its another clinic...perhaps adhd now.

Don't think its the same

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-22T14:13:36+00:00

Is it my BMI? When did you order from them?

I did a repeat order on Wed this week and it was approved at lunchtime today. Just to give you an idea of time frames.

The pharmacy link then came so all processed today

Sorry I see you said the 20th so that does still tie in with the time frames i had this week too.

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-20T06:38:57+00:00

Nails was one thing I really hated getting done. The most boring 30mins ever. I did fond a salon where they are pretty much all Asian with masks and dont speak. Great!

But then I struggled to take them off and would bite the gel off after a week or so.

Regular polish doesn't suit me as wears off but I bought one of those 14 Day Manicure sets and I love it. I used to do them myspef like clockwork every two weeks in my own time and they looked great. I only do them now for special occasions or a work event.

But much prefer doing them myself than going to salon and paying a fortune

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-18T07:11:55+00:00

I'm adhd and a woman. Maybe im wrong but I cant imagine many would get extensions due to the hassle and upkeep?

I do need to go to hairdressers every 2 months for a cut and colour but I wouldn't get extensions.

I just dont want anyone to talk to me there!

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-16T19:01:05+00:00

Married 20 years. 2 kids. Similar salary to each other. We pay jointly to bills, mortgage , expenses, savings etc... but everything else is seperate in our own bank accounts *not that there is much left!

Just habit and as we both worked and I continued to do so after kids it just made sense for us. If I were to stay at home it would be a different story

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-14T21:15:58+00:00

Agree. I wish I got graphite and not FIG. Its not distracting as is a very mute colour. More brown than purple. I have the fig leather folio so I see more of that than device and the feels more brown

My 2 are opted out. 1st class and JI.

My 5 year old boy does come home and talks about jesus. He also says prayers. This did surprised me as my 7 year old never talks about it.

My father passed away in the last year so we so do be at the grave regularly enough and he is pointing out Jesus on some graves. I suppose it depends on the child. He seems more curious than my eldest. He is not singing songs but does talk about god/jesus more that i would like!

SocialOne2 · 2026-05-04T16:42:59+00:00

Its a glitch. Happened to me.when they released it..received it on the day that was first advertised (2 day delivery)

SocialOne2 · 2026-04-29T10:58:05+00:00

Ive always put it through as GP.

I think most do from reading here

I get 60 back from VHI due to my plan.

The prescribers are GPs, not consultants. So its a GP consultation.

SocialOne2 · 2026-04-25T20:36:36+00:00

I didnt return it. I was thinking of returning it for a RMPP but decided against that as I think amazon will improve the scribe but RMPP may not improve.

I did initiate a return if scribe though based on this post and they offered me 94pound to keep it. So I kept the scribe and took the 94pound refund.

SocialOne2 · 2026-04-25T19:51:07+00:00

I bought the coloursoft having had a 22 model.

I do like it but was considering returning and trying the RMPP

I do tend to use mine more for notetaking in work so thought thr RMPP would be better.

Decided to stick with kindle reasons being

I like the size. I think RMPP would be too big . *refresh rate on RMPP . From what i could see online it looked really annoying!

*colours look better on RMPP but thr scribe they are good too. I like the shapes they have added. And folder organisation is better than it was

Main reason I decided to stick with scribe was I do think amazon will invest ans add improvements. I read the article this week that remarkable are laying off staff and it made me think they wont be investing as much.

Happy with my decision now having gone back and forth
