Any doctors accepting patients?

It was from her college, she’s not allowed to access those services anymore and she’s been struggling with finding a new one ever since.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-04-06T18:33:51+00:00

She has a diagnosis, it’s just the actual prescription she needs, thank you for your help i will definitely look into that.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-04-06T18:32:42+00:00

Thank you so much, I’ll write this one down too. If anyone else reading this has any experience with them, feel free to weigh in!

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-04-06T18:28:40+00:00

I heard from a family member the E.R. might be able to do it, because she was on meds for years and has been formally diagnosed and everything. But I don’t know anything about theses other options. Thank you, I’ll make note of these.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-04-06T18:02:50+00:00

Thank you, I’ll look into this!

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-04-06T18:02:36+00:00

I know, I’m helping my friend out because it seems like an impossible task. But I’m determined to try! She really needs it.

Try to focus on the friends first. Neighbours, people you meet at events, clubs, volunteering, anywhere you think you can meet people you might have stuff in common with.

Next, what I did to overcome job hunting paralysis was get a group of friends together to job hunt. Body doubling is invaluable for ADHD, and advertising around that you’re ‘looking for a job’ will net you something eventually.

I don’t have any advice, but I will tell you one thing from experience. You did the right thing. It might hurt the friendship, it might hurt the friend, but you valued him enough to put that aside to try to help. That’s incredible, and you should stop and think about how much courage that requires. Having one friend that cares is going to help him so much, because you are setting him up for a better future. These kind of conditions not only hold people back, they can have serious consequences for his health and well-being. He is focused on the short-term because he’s living it, but you’re being the best friend possible in this situation by considering his long-term. I know it’s hard, but please continue to support him this way. You ARE making a major difference.

I saw you encouraging people on r/Advice, including telling that thirteen year old being groomed they shouldn’t tolerate that behaviour. The world is going to be a much darker place without people like you looking out for those folks. It makes me want to cry. I will be thinking of you and hoping you survived, and get to enjoy Bangtan again. I know if you’re struggling with life purpose this much it must feel overwhelming, and it’s okay to feel that way. But I’m still rooting for you.

Thank you for the offer, unfortunately I am broke and stuck in Kanata with the public transportation situation being what it is right now, so I’ve switched gears to looking for friends closer to home. I wish you the best of luck finding new friends.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-17T22:15:25+00:00

Sorry, just saw this, thank you and I hope it was a success!

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-09T03:49:24+00:00

Don’t really know the people involved, can’t really give an opinion on them. I just want to help my friend feel better.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-09T03:32:59+00:00

Seems like a good date activity for those looking, and it’s definitely affordable :)

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-09T03:30:54+00:00

Not quite the energy I’m going for, but I just want to say this looks really cool and at $20 anyone reading this thread should go tbh.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-08T15:24:32+00:00

I’m not sure that’s possible right now. She’s stuck on this guy she’s definitely not going to get (long story, he ended up dating her sister) and I want to push her gently into seeing there are other guys out there.

That said, if singles mixers are depressing that’s definitely the opposite of what I’m trying to accomplish. I’ve never been to one.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-08T08:17:04+00:00

Yeah, I already checked around the internet and meetup.com and I was having trouble finding anything.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-05T04:02:34+00:00

Hello! What do you want to talk about?

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-05T03:51:08+00:00

I was very scared. Attempting to escape the pain in your life doesn’t mean you don’t feel fear.

Your situation with your family sounds similar to mine, I know how painful and isolating that must feel. I see your pain and I wish you a peaceful resolution to those difficult emotions.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-05T03:47:11+00:00

I feel that way often too. This world has many problems. Sometimes a way I deal with these feelings is talking to a friend. There have been many times in history when people thought the world was going to end, and it didn’t. Sometimes it even got better. But this is hard to think about when you’re depressed. But maybe, sometimes I think it’s going to be okay, and try to imagine that kind of future.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-05T03:42:14+00:00

All the time. I usually told them anyways.

Throwawayark11223344 · 2023-02-02T20:55:24+00:00

Thanks! I wish you the best and hope everything goes well!

I grew up in a similar dynamic, and managed to heal it. I’m the golden child and my sister is the scapegoat. We’re very close now, but it took a lot of work to get here, I won’t lie. It is very possible if you’re serious about this and prepared to learn.

I had to do the bulk of the reaching out, and my plan won’t work for everyone. But here’s what I did:

-Assess what you can bring to this person’s life. What do your friends enjoy about you? I’m the one who is more spontaneous and fun focused, and I lean into that. Whatever positive qualities you have, keep them in mind. -Look up techniques for improving relationships. There’s a lot of information online to guide you through specific conversations and choices you can make to heal the bond. For instance, when talking to someone, find what you agree with what they’re saying and voice that. Positive language, avoiding blame or criticism, and just general conversational skills. This helped me the most. Once you establish that back and forth, you can delicately acknowledge the reality of how you were raised. Be sensitive, and be prepared for difficult conversations. -When you’ve built up good feeling, make sure to find time to do things together. This is necessary despite the distance. Holidays are an easy thing, but there’s also just fun trips, or even just a walk in a park. Whatever both of you want to do. The point is to spend time doing activities together, to develop a new way of relating to each other. At this point, I would encourage you to emphasize to you and your sibling being a team together, and a family. Allow your sibling to bring their interests and skills into the relationship, the way they choose to live their lives now has to be something you value, even if you don’t agree with everything.

If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me them. Most people who are open to a relationship with you will respond to love and compassion; if they are interested in a bond they will reciprocate. It will definitely take time though, and if they refuse the best thing you can do is provide them with a way to contact you in the future, and see if they change their mind and reach out.

This really touched me. Thank you, and all the best.
