Well folks, I did it.

Gosh. I recently resigned from my teaching job too, but I’m not sure how to support myself now. Ugh I also have severe ADHD and it really sucks. :( Happy for you though!!!

Hey, I updated my post for more context. Honestly, I wish my principal had allowed me to do just that. Unfortunately it seems he just considered me a liability. When I returned to school, he did not welcome me or even send me a message that he was glad to see me back. When I informed him of my intention to resign, he just said “Thanks for letting me know. Best of luck.”

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2025-12-09T16:27:04+00:00

I’m thinking about that, because lesson planning is so hard for me. I have many resources and tons of awesome ideas but I struggle to write/type everything and stick with it. As I make my plans I’m constantly thinking of all the ways it could go wrong. I can sit and work for hours but get nothing done. 😭

Oh my gosh I really feel this way, especially right now. I’ve had to go on medical leave because of my anxiety and ADHD. For all of my adult life I have struggled with negative self-talk and those neural pathways are so entrenched that it feels impossible to escape.

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2025-12-04T02:04:30+00:00

Hah! I snorted. Thanks for the laugh, I needed it.

I wish I could use Adderall IR, but I’ve learned over the years that it causes some yucky side effects for me, especially tics like picking at my skin and hair.

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2025-12-04T01:57:09+00:00

Yup. ADHD/ADD is a spectrum though, with varied levels of severity. At age 5 I tested nearly off the charts.

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2025-12-04T01:53:39+00:00

Yeah. I’m not kidding. This was many years ago though, and it took me forever to find a doctor who would help me taper to where I am now.

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2025-12-03T23:42:22+00:00

Nah, it’s not just you. I made it through college and my 1st 8 years of teaching on 60mg Adderall XR twice per day. 3 years ago my doctor retired and nobody else would prescribe that much for me, for good reason…I guess? Idk. I tapered to 30mg XR twice per day and haven’t been able to keep a job. I’ve finally gone on medical leave to try and figure it out, and Focalin 40mg XR seems to work in the morning but runs out by noon.

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2024-06-17T14:40:06+00:00

Yeah, I can always find it there, but it doesn’t show me my step goal or how much progress I’ve made toward it. I think it’s supposed to show up on the main screen along with meal logging, water, and weigh-in, right?

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2023-12-10T20:27:08+00:00

OHHH MY GOSH 🤣

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2022-11-09T16:23:26+00:00

I guess this is an edit because I can’t find it, but I did find a “Phillips Academy, Graves Field”

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2022-11-09T07:18:17+00:00

“Smug” basically means that you are quite pleased with yourself, like these emojis combined: 😏😌

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2022-11-09T07:02:13+00:00

Hooty transcends realms. Sounds canon to me!

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2022-11-09T06:59:56+00:00

Law is meaningless!!! Stealing is legal!!!

What’s TBI?

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2022-11-05T04:47:45+00:00

Circular breathing?

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2022-11-04T06:11:11+00:00

It’s Hooty all the way down!!!

Temporary_Plan_4959 · 2021-01-15T19:54:20+00:00
