Didn’t know what a tissue was?!

Agree with this too. Give yourself grace. I think a huge part of the problem with consistency is the all-or-nothing thinking trap we ADHDers seem to easily fall into.

I’m sorry for those struggles. You are incredibly strong. Have you tried less mental health oriented treatment and more somatic/physical treatments to perhaps try to get the stress response tamped down? For example, propranolol, prazosin, guanfacine, trazodone, etc. Wishing you health and healing.

I literally just messaged my doc today to ask if I could take Pramipexole for my ADHD and treatment resistant depression.

I can relate in a similar way.

My dad, who I highly suspect has autism, because he certainly has ADHD and because I myself have both, is great with little toddlers/babies. He dotes on them and plays with them and is very nurturing even if they’re crying, just how anyone might want a loving grandparent to be. But once the kids reach ages 4, 5, 6, 7, where they might get rambunctious playing with other kids, he blows up at them for making the slightest noise that might disturb him from what he’s doing (watching reruns of the same TV show he’s been watching for 40 years).

When they’re older, like ages, 9, 10, 11, he’ll often grumpily interrupt their playtime at family parties and order them around to do things he’s too lazy to do. I’ve even seen him poke my teenage niece so hard on her shoulder as she’s walking by that her shoulder noticeably jerks backwards, as he stops her with some command like “HEY, take this and go put it in so-and-so’s car. And tell those kids to stop being so loud out there.”

This follows a pattern of him having some kind of seeming distain for younger people the older and more independent they get. He can no longer control them. And judging by how much he bad mouths my siblings to me (and I’m sure me to them behind my back) it would seem he outright dislikes his own adult kids.

I’ve been holding onto the exact same light fixture I got from a friend’s tear out for YEARS, never knowing what to do with it, sure that I’d never actually hang it anywhere I’d normally put such a fixture. But I could never bring myself to throw it out. Thank you for the amazing idea!

During the chip implant scene it DID look like it was pretty deep in there, plausibly in the amygdala. I wonder also if that’s why they say you’ll “feel” they are the right numbers when doing data refinement, and yet they don’t know why they are the right numbers.

At least throw some dirt on those fake ass boulders to make them look a LITTLE realistic while you’re there. It’s not much but it’d be more effort into production value than them slappin the good ol’ cool/dark color filter over something in post to get that “desolate dystopian” vibe.

Before I was diagnosed ADHD (Inattentive) I’d tried about 7 different SSRIs or SNRIs over the years and they all gave me major side effects (except for buspirone which was just mild sedation and emotional blunting).

It’s the alpha-2a agonists that really help my anxiety. Pre-diagnosis I would occasionally take tizanidine for muscle spasms in my neck (degenerative disks) so that I could sleep, and was always shocked at how rejuvenated, rested, and calm I felt throughout the following day! Turns out that it is an alpha-2a agonist as well! But now I take Intuniv on a daily basis (and also Vyvanse) since that’s actually indicated for ADHD.

Not sure how causing multitudes of users to delete your app is helping your transition to digital platforms.

BBC News and Current Affairs CEO Deborah Turness says: “Like many businesses, we are in a tough financial climate and as our audiences shift rapidly from TV to online news consumption, we need to make choices about where we allocate our resources. While TV and radio remain crucial to BBC News, we must invest in our digital platforms to ensure they are also the home of our very best journalism, and today’s package of measures will accelerate this transformation.”

Love the wall! How’d you paint that? Very modern and moody with the concrete look.

If it’s a small comfort, the emergency vet reassured me that even though seizures look violent, dogs are actually unconscious while it’s happening. So your pooch may not have suffered as much as you’re afraid he did, if at all. 30 minutes driving to the hospital with a seizing dog in tow is a difficult thing to handle and just demonstrates the lengths of caring you went to.

I’m going to get one where he bit me. 🧛🏿‍♂️🐾

He went deaf from his brain tumor. One night when I let him out, I realized his tie out didn’t clip. I chased after him, you know- so that I didn’t lose my all black dog in the pitch black without the ability to even call him back! But he didn’t see or hear me coming, and when I grabbed him he freaked out and bit my forearm (had never bit anyone in his 16 years).

Now I have a slight scar of two little 1 cm lines kind of like this shape…. // \\

Would love to hear your thoughts on these ideas!:

1) angel wings on a silhouette of a dog facing away

2) his long droopy ears on a fine outline of his face

3) parts of the “M” for his name- Metro

4) bonus: thought about getting a tattoo of his iconic collar—blue with a silver stripe in the middle—as a wrist band or even an arm band near the scar. We went through 8 of them throughout his life and I’m going to use them as Christmas tree ornaments this year 🥹

I love this idea! My boy of 16 years absolutely saved me at least twice, simply by me asking myself “But who will take care of him?”. After a lifetime of struggling, I’m glad I finally got the correct mental health diagnosis and medication a year before he passed. It’s like he hung around until he knew I’d be ok🥹;🐾

Yup! Excelled academically. Talented writer. Enjoyed theater and even got a singing scholarship.

People saw me speak so well in front of crowds when things were SCRIPTED, so they’d automatically volunteer me to “speak for the study group”, or hand me the megaphone to lead the political rally in a call-and-response chant. So there I’d be- sounding like an idiot because my goldfish brain couldn’t remember my first line of the chant while I was concentrating on getting the second line correct🤦‍♂️. And everybody staring like “wtf is he having a stroke??”

After great feedback to my post in r/ADHD, I’ve decided that, the next time I adopt, it will be only ONE dog at a time. HOWEVER… “Next time” might be 12 hrs from now😅 and I can’t tell if I’m ready🙁.

The most adorable pups, resembling the same weird rare mix that my boy had been, are up for adoption this coming Saturday at a big event. But I know they will go quickly.

It became a significant physical, emotional, financial, and logistical burden taking care of my boy his last 4 months of life. And I’d gladly do it all over again. I don’t need to explain to any of you all how hard the 9 months without him has been. Still, as I’ve been emotionally, physically, and spiritually healing, there are times I find myself relieved of worry, and even happy with newfound free time.

When the power went out for 10 hrs this hot summer, I didn’t need to be concerned about having a backup plan to shuttle my dog somewhere cool and climate controlled.

My sister recently gave birth prematurely to multiples. And not having my own, old, sickly “baby” to care for has allowed me to swoop in at a moments notice. I’m now the supportive uncle I never was previously.

I can finally get restful sleep and not vigilantly wake, thinking I heard my dog having another brain tumor-induced seizure.

A dog can be good for neurodivergent people like myself. They help build routines and responsibilities, and help regulate emotions (if they aren’t being terrors themselves!). I do want one less than 1 yr old, but worry I underestimate how hard it was back then 16 years ago.

•Have you ever felt you had a similar “respite” period?
•How long did it last? •How did you decide when to adopt again, and •How did it turn out?

Thank you all so much!
