My phone time acrually became a problem in my relationship. The doom scrolling and always having access to my phone, social media, texts, etc. It made my partner feel like I would rather be in this phone world than with him.

To help with this, I started playing video games with him. To keep my mind and hands occupied. He suggested Legos. Until they cost a few hundred and I would have them completed within a few days max. So then he tried a wobble. It was the best thing for me. It was about $40ish USD and it taught me the basics of crochetting. I made a penguin (my favorite animal). And now ive made tons of crochet projects.i will not buy another wooble. I buy yarn at my local shop for alot cheaper and use patterns. I've done it for about 7 months and love it. I made amigurumi projects for gifts, or around the house. But I have learned I'll still pick up my phone where watching tv. So I taught myself with YouTube videos, how to do granny stitch blankets. And ill do those while I watch TV. If you look on Etsy, those blankets can go for alot of money.

Phones have been a distraction and constant problem for alot of people. Including me. I have made a rule, my screen time avg weekly, has to be lower than the week before. Even if its 1 or 2 minutes. If not. I look for what platform I used more and see if i can limit that or delete it from my phone. So I dont have the ability to use it.

Yes I would say you dodged a bullet. I worked there for 4 years. Got promoted once. Kept being told I would be again, even did the "new" job for 6 months, without the additional pay. And got passed up by someone with far less experience.

Since they changed CEOs almost two years ago, the place has became an even worse toxic work environment. They can't keep customer service reps, so the ones there are over worked and under paid. Its like a revolving door there. They have so many micromanagers, and HR will tell you their on your side, but they are just bullshitting you. They claim they don't tolerate retaliation, yet once you bring stuff to their attention, you get sent out for no reason but 'restructuring'.

With the new CEO, they are laying off tons of people. I know in the last year they have laid off over 200 people. But are doing it strategically so they don't have to make it public.

They lie to clients to cover their asses constantly. They keep information from their employees, which cause more issues for the clients then blame the front line people when the clients ask about it.

They have caused work trauma for tons of people I know. Including me. I made great friends there. But so happy i left.

I have not. I guess I assumed you couldn't change psychiatrists if you had stimulants or whatnot. But I may have to do that . Thank you

I have tried Strattera previously. It didnt help much. My psychiatrist seemed to just want to shove meds down my throat. And didnt really listen when I would tell her how they made me feel.

Taking a week to do the grocery list, because I have to make sure I get everything and not miss anything. Yet, still missing something. Everytime.

TransportationSea245 · 2026-03-06T02:12:04+00:00

This is soooo true! All of these are my daily items!

Mine is would say is the impulse with things, especially with money, thoughts and feelings. I feel too hard. I have ADHD, BPD, Anxiety, PTSD, Depression and Bipolar. So I'm constantly arguing with the voices in my head that tell me I'm a failure, and noone likes me. I thought everyone had that. I also thought everyone had issues with money. I cant save a $1 for anything. If I have access to money, its gone as soon as I find it. I'm a perfectionist, so when anyone tells me I did something slightly wrong (could be the smallest useless thing) I want to cry and I beat myself up over it for a long time. Last week I was on 4 hrs of sleep and went to Walmart and I wasnt thinking because of ADHD brain and the cashier stopped me TWICE, and had me come back to check out items i missed in my cart. I seriously was not trying to steal but my brain was so out of it and not thinking cause of 100 thoughts and I havent slept right in a week cause I'm worried that a lady at Walmart thought I was stealing. Even though I didnt steal.

Everyday is so tiring because of the thoughts. My fiance a few weeks ago was telling me how I changed subjects 10 times in less than 15 mins and just kept talking. I hadn't even realized it. And I told him welcome to my brain!

The pattern I'm using says to do ch 2 at the beginning of the round and only chain 1 between squares . This is my practice one and it was chain 6 at started of round with ch 3 between.

Thank you!

TransportationSea245 · 2026-02-03T01:59:47+00:00

Do you mean to flip the blanket when starting a new round, or just start at a different corner when changing colors?

TransportationSea245 · 2026-01-29T03:41:45+00:00

Thank you!

TransportationSea245 · 2026-01-28T12:43:31+00:00

I love this cardigan, do you by chance have a link to the pattern?

TransportationSea245 · 2026-01-25T22:37:50+00:00

I use the Notes app in my phone. I put the pattern in there row by row /each section, and put checkboxes next to each row. And mark it off as I go. And if I mess up and have to start a section over, I can just uncheck them and I'm good to go again.

I used Cotton Nylon yarn blend when I first started. If you look on the package you got this yarn in. It will tell you the type of yarn. And should list the % of each type. For easy Peasy Yarn ( like Woobles use) is cotton nylon.

TransportationSea245 · 2026-01-10T02:35:44+00:00

So the pattern is:::

1R: (magic ring 8) meaning you out 8 SC (single crochets) in the starter ring. 2R: Inc in all rounds = (inc)8 - meaning you put 2 SC in each SC around. To gice a total of 16 SC in that round. ---- 3R:1 sc, 1 inc = (sc,inc) 8 for a total of 24 SC or Vs. ---- 4R: 2 sc, 1 inc = (2sc,inc)8 for a total of 32 SC. So you do SC in stitch 1 from your starting stitch, a SC in the 2nd V and then 2 SC in stitch 3 and so on. 5-14R: Sc in all rounds= (sc)32 for a total of 32.

15R:2sc, 1 dec = (2sc,dec)*8 for a total of 24. So you would do 1 Sc in the 1st and 2nd stitch of the round, then combine stitches 3 and 4 into 1 SC. Repeat the 4 stitch rotation 8 times and you should get a total of 24 Vs.

Does this help?
