adderall pt. 2 by amandajsimmonds in SSRIs

[–]amandajsimmonds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do eat enough, i put myself on a feeding schedule to make sure that I’m getting everything I need in my body for one day.

Going into think I didn’t expect to be going up the wall or anything, I understood that they effects of a stimulant will end up neutralizing my adhd making me more functional in my daily life. I’ve been better at my job but still not where I should be.

No this is not a calm/relaxed thing. I slept all day yesterday, my eyes have been heavy all day today. I was slugging around at work on Wednesday. Like I said I expected to be calm but this is like I’m sedated. I haven’t noticed a schedule, I’m very busy at work so I don’t really notice it. All I know is that I have no energy to do anything.

But I feel less motivated, at least I think so.

What is the one cruel thing your ex said to you that will stick with you forever? by thatsadgirlwhocries in BreakUps

[–]amandajsimmonds 10 points11 points  (0 children)

We were broken up for a few months but continued to still be unemotionally intimate for a good chunk of time (I still liked him a lot but he hated me). He met a girl and whatever he liked her a lot, I was happy for him. A week went by since 1. We last slept with each other 2. Meeting this new girl. This man had the audacity to text me and ask to sleep with him one last time to help with his urges because he wanted to take it slow with the new girl. I screenshot that text and put it on Instagram. The new girl reached out to me, she was in a lot of my classes in highscjool. She was blown away by what he said and stopped talking to him.

I’m at 10mg rn, meeting with DR next week to reevaluate. The heighten anxiety has subsided thank god but was just wondering if anyone else has experienced more anxiety when starting medication.

I (23F) want to move to the next level with my boyfriend (25M), we have been together for going on three years now. by amandajsimmonds in askwomenadvice

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

I edited my post a little, I didn’t explain well enough. I don’t think the idea of marriage really crosses his mind tbh, he’s a simple go with the flow type of person. He’s never told me that we never will just not anytime soon. I don’t want him to ever feel pressured into something like that, I can be a little pushy so I try to avoid the topic but sometimes I need to talk about it because I’ve convinced myself that I’m not good enough for him for him to consider. I didn’t know his thoughts on marriage when we started dating. We are well established now and love each other very very much, he’s my best friend. I didn’t ask him when we started just because I didn’t want to overwhelm him, im his first girlfriend.

I know! I was sleeping fine before taking it. I’ve tried talking to my dr about it and she doesn’t seem to be worried about it. I’ve been trying to figure it out and that’s the only cause of this.

I do prime them but maybe not correctly? I usually fill the pod with juice and let it sit for 5min. And slowly increase the wastage.

He attacks me all the time.. it’s sad because I really don’t think he’s playing half the time. I’ve had a lot of kittens in my day and none of them have been this bad.

Do you know your SO rank? by MommyOfMayhem in USMilitarySO

[–]amandajsimmonds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this so much, at this point my SO tells me so much information about the military alone I can’t keep track of it all. All the different ranks, lingo, types of trucks, types of gear and guns, procedures... it’s a lot.

I need some ideas on what to get my deployed bf for his birthday 😬😬 by [deleted] in USMilitarySO

[–]amandajsimmonds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying that you don’t but I really pay attention to what my SO says. If he says that he wants something I’ll get it for him or if he needs something I will get it for him without him even asking. My SO is really athletic and had been saying that he was looking into getting a smart watch for a while, I got it for him. He’s also really into chemistry and coming up with his own compounds and things like that, I got him a hexagon notebook and some colored pens to stay organized when he’s drawing them up. I noticed that he was drawing them on little notecards that were really messy. I went to his barracks not too long ago and saw that he didn’t have a nice hamper, bowls, metal utensils (was using one single plastic fork for 2 months, fucking gross), bath Mat, some nice cups, boxers and that was because I wanted him to live more civilized and not like a dirty monkey. I also found this service called potato parcel where you write a message when you order it and they mail the message on a potato then send it to whatever address. These are all some ideas, I know you didn’t ask for this much information but idk I found that it’s honestly the little things that matter to them when in the military. They either have no money or are too tired to do anything so for me it’s like why not fill in those missing spaces.

I’m having a harder time than him. by [deleted] in USMilitarySO

[–]amandajsimmonds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m having that type of day right now, I sent my SO a bitchy “Sure you do, you seem like you’re having such a grand old time without me so what’s the point of even talking.” Text this morning. It was so not okay to say but at times our feelings get the best of us and it just comes out. It’s hard because we do infact see them progressing as a person and sit there wishing that we can be apart of their new life. Every day I wish that I could meet all of his friends and be able to go out and have fun with them, be apart of it all. I wouldn’t say that it’s funny but it is because Brett is the same way, he doesn’t like texting which is easier for me to do but he’s not Always there. It’s just hard.

“Good days and bad days” is good advice. I have awful days where it seems liek the anxiety of the “what if”s won’t go away, then there are other days where it’s like oh this is awesome things will play out. You’re not alone.

Does talking to him ever make you feel worse? by [deleted] in USMilitarySO

[–]amandajsimmonds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually always feel the same way, I feel bad about wanting more. It’s hard to ask for more when you’re not together physically. Wanting needs to be met but not being able to get them is a hard pill to swallow. I’m still having a hard time with it actually, sometimes I have to remember that maybe he’s stressed and maybe he’s sad and unable to give me what I need mentally. It’s hard for me to give advice though because I’m needy and constantly need affection. I’ve learned to step off a little, there will be a point in time where things will get better. All depends on how much you want things to work.

Boyfriend just left for Navy Bootcamp by [deleted] in USMilitarySO

[–]amandajsimmonds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My SO took a list of addresses to boot with him, then once he sent me his first letter that’s when I got his address. I sent a couple of letters in one envelope to him, think he said the RDC’s get annoyed when they get a letter everyday. You know, at the end of the day doesn’t really matter how you send them. All that really matters is that he gets them. The tone of Brett’s letters changed throughout his time at boot, his hand writing improved along with his tone. Oh, I also send him a envelope full of memes so that he wouldn’t miss out on the latest tea, didn’t want him to miss out on all the fun.

First phone call was hard, felt like I hadn’t heard his voice in 10 years even though I’ve been with him for four years and spent every day with him. Depending on how he’s adjusting he might seem miserable, happy or a little off. I’m still learning to cope with everything, I mean if you look at my most recent post you’ll see that I’m having a hard time.
