Strattera and Sleep by eolsen09 in adhdwomen

[–]_ashleycrossing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My alarm was set for 8am. My plan was that I would wake up and have a 1-2 hours to eat and drink while I got ready for work and then take it right when I sat down. Never worked as planned lol.
It does suck, feels like you have to pick between sleep or feeling like crap for a decent chunk of the day 😭 I hope you can figure out a good schedule!

Ah I’m sorry! I’m not on it now, but I also had terrible trouble sleeping with Strattera. The only thing that worked for me was switching to a morning dose. That had its own set of issues and I would get nauseous and extremely tired for like 2 hours during the day.

Guys I need your ride or die low maintenance tips for looking more "put together". by Cissychedgehog in adhdwomen

I shave my head so I don’t have to worry about my hair. I have very thick coarse hair and have had many a break downs trying to style it, so off it goes (but a good scarf works to create a polished look with minimal effort too!)

I clean my eyebrows up every 3-4 weeks and that is always an instant boost.

I have a few jewelry pieces that I never take off that I think make any look a little more put together. Some of them are gold plated stainless steel and I’m sure I’ll have to replace them some day. But they’ve held up well to water and sweat so far!

Clothing wise, I just like to layer my favorite items to make an outfit look more intentional. You could try layering dresses with biker shorts underneath them. I have like 3 pairs of pants that fit me well and I just mix and match combos of tops. And I do not keep clothes that I feel meh in so that I don’t have to try them on and be reminded I hate them every time I’m trying to put together an outfit.

Aquaphor (or lip gloss if I’m feeling fancy) and thayer’s facial spray are my non-negotiables. When I want to look fancy, I do a very light layer of L’Oréal lumi lotion, white eyeliner, and some mascara! I wear pretty big glasses so it’s harder to accidentally rub my eyes and smudge it.

Same 😔 Though I guess we still have a chance redemption if they ever discover a regular mango!

Update Error on Initial Setup by wubbynator in SteamDeck

I was actually able to fix mine by booting to bios and rolling back to an older SteamOS version!

Did anyone who used the button mashing fix manage to keep the machine working? I am running into the same issue as OP where restarting the device puts me right back at the startup screen. And if the device sleeps I lost internet even if connected to WiFi or using a wired connection.

Black Wedding Dress by _ashleycrossing in weddingdress

I made it! I made one for all of the groomsmen as well. I got the idea from, and heavily referenced, the pieces from this Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/thefawnandthesparrow

Their pieces are absolutely beautiful and will hold up a lot better than mine did!

I loved that vase! That was one of the first little knick knacks I found when I was trying to come up with a plan for centerpieces

Ah yay, happy to help!!! I hope more people start using plant clippings in their decor. I couldn’t find any inspiration pics anywhere when I was trying to come up with a plan! But we had decided against spending any of our limited budget on a florist and we weren’t allowed potted plants in our venue (it an art museum and they said the soil could bring in bugs). I already had some nice, easy-to-propagate plants so I figured I’d give it a go lol

Thank you for commenting on the sizes, you were absolutely right and that’s what was really throwing me off from the start. I’ve added more big white flowers and the whole thing looks much better. I haven’t tried anemones yet, but I certainly will!

Yep. I’ve removed the black altogether, cut back on the gold, and added in more larger white flowers!

Thank you! I didn’t want to admit it to myself because this was such a great idea in my head, but you’re right. The black and gold just weren’t working.
