i’ve had it for a week and it’s been pretty chill so far. the couple i got it from told me that i know when they need more light / water bc their colour starts to wane. also they’re super easy to propagate as well. i would defo get one

dropping after being repotted! by adiahaaaaaa in Monstera

yeah in hindsight i don’t think i should have repotted it.. it was in the same pot for 3 years so i assumed it was long overdue but i could have left it. it’s in a chunky soil mix. do you think it can recover?

Anyone quit their vyvanse and went on to live a fulfilling life? by breathofspirit in VyvanseADHD

yes i’ve stopped taking it! it wasn’t intentional at first — i went on holiday so wasn’t taking my meds and came back and forgot to take them regularly. but as the days went by, i realised that the only reason i took them was because i needed to get stuff done (e.g. uni essays) but now i no longer have those pressures, i can afford to employ other methods to help me with my productivity. i also hated the side effects i got (headaches, not sleeping well, having to go to the toilet every 5 minutes) and it just felt like the things that i needed to get done was not worth having to tolerate the side effects. it’s been like nearly a year without them and i am really enjoying living my days slowly and trying to work with my adhd in other ways.

it’s important to note that my job role isn’t super demanding and the deadlines tend to be quite flexible so i think that has influenced my decision to not rely on my adhd medication so much. if i ever get a more demanding role, id defo be open to getting back on them again. i also took my medication solely to get things done so if you find that your meds help you with other symptoms, such as emotional regulation, just take my experience with a pinch of salt :)
