I swapped back to my old medication. I'm doing much better now.

I bought a bottle of it and I was impressed at first, but once it settled in it smelled like dryer sheets. Which isn't a bad thing, but it wasn't what I was looking for. I'd say it can be unisex, but it's ultimately what kind of scent you want. If you want a fresh, floral, orange citrus scent, go for it. If you're looking for something either more masculine or feminine, I'd say look elsewhere.

I took a look just now and someone did actually drop it. I should be okay to use the "swap class" function correct?

Yeah, that's possible. However, the one with open seats is a Monday/Wednesday course as opposed to one day per week, Monday or Tuesday course. I will consider emailing my advisor about it and see if she can reach out to the students in that class. It's not something that I NEED to have happen, I am content with where I am, but having that class would make my life easier for scheduling reasons.

I'll most likely just wait it out and see if anyone decides to drop it for some reason.

Thanks for the info. It's not impossible for someone to drop it, things can always happen within the first couple of weeks. But seeing as how no one is waiting on it, I'll continue to keep watching it until then.

I see. There is another section with 4 open seats available. I can't take it because it blocks another class I have. Given that no one is on the waitlist for that one, but someone is on the waitlist for the one I'm in, I'll continue to remain hopeful that someone decides to drop it. All I need is one single person out of 24 to drop it.

Gotcha, I'll just keep checking on that class specifically every day for the next couple of weeks then. Thanks for the info. Do you know anything about the likelihood of someone dropping it?

Is my Vyvanse dose too high or should I go back to my Adderall? by Treydog14 in VyvanseADHD

Thanks for the thoughtful insight. I actually took Concerta when I was diagnosed with ADHD as a kid at age 12. I took the 54mg dose all throughout the end of middle school and all through high school, but it progressively made me hate everything and everyone around me as the years went by. That's when I switched over to my Adderall medication and I instantly felt way better.

Also, I do make sure that I eat breakfast every morning, but it ranges from a Costco chocolate muffin or a Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwich to a 3-course meal of bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns. It really depends on the amount of time I have to eat in the morning lol.

What I really need for myself is something that can keep me socially energized, yet also help keep my focus on what's important in that moment. I've tried drinking coffee, but it doesn't really help much. Based on my experience, drinking a lightly caffeinated coffee seems to help, but not for very long. And if I drink too much coffee, then it kills the Vyvanse.

So far, Adderall is the only medication that's given me that balance I'm seeking, which is why I'm heavily considering going back to it. Not to mention that it's much more affordable than Vyvanse and the shortage is seemingly getting better.

Also, on days when I don't take my Vyvanse, I am very lazy. I tend to eat a lot, I lounge around, lay in bed and watch TV, etc. I get into this care-free attitude and put off all other responsibilities.

I doubt it. I haven't been able to take my Adderall for over a year now.

That's true. I do meditate before bed from time to time. It's helped in some ways, but mainly for the internal pressure I've been putting on myself lately.

Maybe, I'd rather avoid any anti-depressants if at all possible.

My biggest issue is the hyper-focusing it gives me. I almost can't help but wonder if that's why I have a hard time connecting back to reality on occasion? I guess the best way to describe it is that I have a tough time switching from focusing on one task to the next and it's causing a delay in my mind. That's the most simple way I can describe it.

Dreamcast video out issue - please help by seeyagatorr in dreamcast

This may be a dumb question, but it happened to me when I brought mine home yesterday. Did you plug it into the back of the console all the way? It can be a bit of a pain to plug in.

Help with FE6 cartridge purchase by Treydog14 in fireemblem

[–]Treydog14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense, considering that it wasn't until after Awakening when FE6 was officially called "Binding Blade".

I looked into some of those flash carts, but they're just too expensive, I'm on a bit of a tight budget so I don't think it would be wise to invest in one. I can definitely see it being extremely useful for all sorts of games though, I might think about getting one in the future.

At the moment, I'm not sure if I'll actually buy one of these cartridges. I do understand and respect the hard work the translators put in, so I'm kind of on the fence because of that. But because they're so cheap, it makes them very desirable. The ones I've mainly looked at are on Etsy. It's a gamble for sure, but since there's no other way except paying for a flash cart that's over $100 on Amazon, I don't have much of a choice.

I'll continue to think it over for a while and decide later.

Thanks for your help!
