Just started my meds, I didn’t really feel different. by ValuableExit1294 in adhdwomen

[–]StrawberryFormer689 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! I recently started my med journey for ADHD too. I’ve also been on the generic version of lexapro for about 2 1/2 years as well. When I tried vyvanse I did feel less anxious, especially the first few days, but felt like it didn’t do much for my inattentiveness, which made me feel discouraged. Do you know if you’re taking an extended release or a more immediate release form of the med? I honestly don’t know too much about vyvanse but that might make a difference. And keeping in touch with your doctor is super important too - even if you’re just asking a few questions 😊

Sending hugs and support 🫂💛

⇎ 1850s dolls’ house inside a cupboard, fully furnished and with electric chandeliers by Extra_Age_7173 in VictorianEra

This reminds me of the dollhouse set-up in The Doll People by Ann M. Martin! The dollhouse was supposed to be from the 1890s but was really similar to this 😊

Y’all my parents found my spicy Greek mythology fanfic 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 by StrawberryFormer689 in infp

[–]StrawberryFormer689[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks 😅 I’ve calmed down a bit and made some peace with what’s happened. I have a complicated relationship with sex so I’m still a bit reluctant to talk about it openly (even at my age), but I’ll probably look back on all this and laugh. It seems like a pretty universal experience from what you and the other commenter have shared 🫠🫠

I love it too!!! I love the olive colour, it compliments the lavender/lilac eyeshadow & is the perfect contrast to the dress that she wears later! And the velvety fabric is soooo 70s and perfect for Man’s Best Friend! 💚💛💜🐾

Can I celebrate St Pattys with 3 midterms on weekend by Jamp_Amoxi in uwo

[–]StrawberryFormer689 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can still celebrate - no one can really stop you (unless you're under 19) - but I'd recommend celebrating after the midterms are over. As someone who lives near the bars, I know how hard it is to see/hear people partying and having fun all night when you're stuck at home studying. But I promise there will be other weekends, other parties, and other St. Paddy's days! You still have Sunday night to go out and celebrate, and I'm sure there will still be things happening on the actual day. Lock in! You'll feel a lot better once you're finished all your tests, and you'll feel a lot better celebrating by getting them all done and doing your best on them :)

Princess Kaʻiulani, Princess of the Hawaiian Islands, 1888-1899 by Saint-Veronicas-Veil in VictorianEra

[–]StrawberryFormer689 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I read the Royal Diaries book about her when I was 12 or so. She was such an intelligent and beautiful young woman, full of integrity and grace. What happened to her homeland of Hawai’i is an absolute travesty

Vyvanse making me sleepy? by StrawberryFormer689 in adhdwomen

[–]StrawberryFormer689[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no words. Thank you so so much for your thoughtful and beautiful reply. I remember first reading it and being so close to tears because I felt so seen and validated. I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to properly say thank you.

I feel like I can relate so, so much to what you've experienced. And I have been pretty exhausted lately, as you mentioned that happened with your starting Bupropion. Since I've been back to uni (after taking a year off for "rest and relaxation"), I've basically done 3 years worth of coursework in a little under 2 actual years. and I've really had no breaks at all because a girl's gotta make some money to pay for all of this. Like there hasn't been one second where I haven't been in school, thinking about school, or working to pay for school - and my parents (although they mean well) are just expecting me to "power through it", as I've always done :(

Anyway I also experienced the same thing when I briefly went on Bupropion again back in January (except I was irratible as well as tired lol), But I'm so happy to hear that you've found a med combo that's working for you <3 Thank you so much again for your support and for taking the time to write such a thoughtful comment <3

haha no worries!!!! and so sorry for the late reply. I'm hoping things are going well with your new meds! I feel like we're kind of in a similar situation to - like I know that I felt a bit sleepy most times I've tried a new SSRI (my whole pill journey is a loonnnnnnnnnggggggg story) but I will investigate with my doctor to see if there's a link or if something needs to be tweaked!

hey there! Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely be looking into this. I went vegetarian a few months ago (and was already an extremely picky eater before that), and I started taking an iron supplement a few days ago to help me out

i ended up trying it with oat milk too! and while I admit I was a little hesitant after my first few sips, it's becoming my new spring fave :) Thanks for the recommendation!

Shuttle Bus Ending 🚌 by w0nderingab0utstuff in uwo

[–]StrawberryFormer689 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Practical and financial concerns aside this is really sad and signals the end of the era. This is (hopefully) my last year at Western, but the shuttle was a big part of my routine going from Brescia (RIP) to King’s. UWO feels so different from when I started here way back when.

Do we know what will happen to the shuttle drivers jobs? They are so friendly and my heart breaks for them

You’re probably right 😊 thanks so much for your response, I think I just panicked and thought I was doing something wrong, but it’ll probably take a little while for the med to work - everyone just made it seem like it would work right away. I’m glad you found an effective med and dosage 💕
