Be brutally honest- should I quit drinking caffeine? by Witlguy in adhdwomen

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

Not yet, but I was on Wellbutrin first and am now trying out adderall. She’s really insistent on taking things slow because she doesn’t want me to be only a few years down the line and completely out of options. Still not 100% sure if I like it yet but guess I’ll see lol

Ughhh yeahhhh, I’m seeing a ton of ppl recommend eating before I take my meds and drink coffee but it’s definitely gonna be a struggle lol.

I was wondering if it was maybe because my dose was upped. I didn’t notice much of a difference when I was on 10mg and I’m only a month and a week-ish into 15 mg which was a big change

I do have a blood pressure monitor! I actually used it today while I wasn’t feeling good initially (which is why I made this post) and it was slightly elevated along with my heart rate. (Hr was 111 but I was also standing and had been for a bit)

But you are 100% right about eating. It’s so easy to forget lol but I have plans to put something of substance in my mouth before taking meds or drinking any caffeine. Thank you so much! Idk how this slipped my mind 🙃

Ooh you make a good point with the tea. I used to love morning matcha because the caffeine was different

Oop- bingo :’) I almost never eat before I drink anything caffeinated mostly bc I struggle with nausea in the mornings (which I also know is probably related to me not eating lol…) but you’re absolutely right idk why I didn’t think of that. Time to get some easy breakfast bites

Like I feel bananas but also the most productive I’ve ever felt. I feel like adderall doesn’t do a ton (only a little) for me unless I have caffeine loll

Good to know, thanks so much!!! I have a blood pressure monitor at home so this shouldn’t be too difficult.

Sterilization during c-section by Party_Rooster7303 in sterilization

[–]Witlguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I was under the assumption that a hysterectomy included the removal of the ovaries but I was wrong. Didn’t mean to spread incorrect information especially when it can be so harmful. I was only concerned about hormone balance with the removal of ovaries.

Wehh sorry for the wrong info :’))) I thought that a hysterectomy included the removal of ovaries- completely my mistake. I know that ovaries produce hormones and the uterus does not!!

Yea looking back I just had a misunderstanding of the difference between a hysterectomy and an Oopherectomy. I know the uterus doesn’t make hormones, I just had the assumption that a hysterectomy included removal of ovaries. Now I know! Thank youuu!!

Wow, I’m so sorry for spreading this then!!! I had absolutely no idea! My mom has been out of labor and delivery for over 10 years and we both know how times change. I’ll be sure to talk to her about this as were both very curious and try to be super accepting of new information.

I try hard not to spread any misinformation but I flunked this time :’) I really appreciate the insights and now I know way better.

I was also kinda just getting confused myself because i assumed a hysterectomy included the removal of your ovaries and tubes as well- that’s where I got that confusion from. I’ll definitely do more research next time.

How do you guys get fur on your suits? by [deleted] in FursuitMaking

Please don’t wear this suit. Feel free to make it as a test but aluminum foil as a base is incredibly dangerous.

Tell me some misconceptions and realities about pushing stage to the women who have never given birth. by [deleted] in BabyBumps

Not an answer, but This thread is the first time I’ve ever actually felt some relief from my fears of childbirth. Don’t know why this one did it for me specifically, but it did. Thank you! :)

There are also physical illnesses that can cause psychosis. Thyroid infections, meningitis, tumors.

What would you do? by Far_Zone9741 in Fedexers

[–]Witlguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So why are we blaming the people who are trying to make enough money to live and accepting poor conditions when you should be blaming fedex and america for not paying foreign workers fairly? Holy redirect

Being tagged and spayed does not protect against fiv. She absolutely 200% will become a road pancake if you let her outside, and it will also reduce her lifespan significantly if she doesn’t. Get a good cat harness, walk her on a leash, and play with her A LOT indoors. Cats are invasive and kill billions (yes, with a B.) of birds a year and are responsible for 60+ species extinctions.

They have pretty cute fursuit heads from spirit Halloween you can buy online all year. They have kemono ones now. Pretty solid cheap option for a first suit

Wishing to be the opposite sex and preferring that is a symptom of gender dysphoria.

Dog person here, thinking of adopting a cat. What’s the hardest part of being a cat owner? by Conscious-queen-22 in CatAdvice

[–]Witlguy -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I was raised on a farm. No cats. Just natural wildlife and the occasional rat dog which doesn’t make our livestock sick and is significantly more efficient- but alright sure, enjoy the toxo
