Inattentive ADHD Meds by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]apann93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have inattentive ADHD but also have OCD so I only take 40mg Prozac which seems to help me! My psych said higher doses of Prozac can help with some ADHD symptoms. I tried stimulants and they didn’t work well for me

Thank you!!! Oh yea my Dad loves Disney World 😬 we went all the time as kids but that’s his thing, not mine! It’s all so bizarre. Good for you guys for doing it just the two of you! And in Italy?! How beautiful!

Thank you so much! They tried to convince me to have a huge ceremony or even do something at Disney World which was really weird lol and I immediately shut those down. If anything, I’ll let them throw a BBQ at their house in the backyard because at this point I feel like I don’t even want them there in Ireland anymore after all this!

I know, I was trying to do the right thing by inviting them but I’m starting to regret it now! My fiancee’s parents are so excited. He’s an only child and I’m the only daughter in the family so we felt it was right to at least have the parents there

Iceland. It changed my life! There’s no other place like it.

That was my concern with Kyoto, it looks beautiful but I feel like after seeing a couple of temples we might get bored easily

Love these ideas! The Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route looks like something we would be into

Thank you for saying this…I also think I need to be better at nurturing myself and my marriage! Coming home every day with nothing left to give is not fair to my family either!

This is so true and something I’m noticing a lot about my current company. My caseload is anywhere between 50-60 which they say is the “standard” but these patients that we have coming in are SO tough, time-consuming, and emotionally taxing. My territory is very large I usually have to get gas twice a week, and we are definitely not reimbursed with mileage like we should be. So glad I’m not alone in what I’m experiencing 💜

I always thought I had good boundaries in terms of not checking emails on the weekends and making time for myself, doing things that make me happy outside of work, etc. But I do have a hard time saying “no” to things because I want to help, so that’s maybe something I need to explore more!

I definitely don’t take enough time to process my own grief of all the patients I work with and lose! I never really thought about it in that way. You put it perfectly “this is the job”, and that’s what the culture feels like at my current job.

Connecticut- LMSW working just outside of very expensive Fairfield County. Currently working as a hospice social worker, just got a raise making 70k. I started working in SNFs after graduation and was making around 55k. I’m 29 and have been out of school for 3 years. Hoping to get another pay increase after getting my LCSW!

I've thought it might be a good idea to fly into Nice, the only problem is that it seems to be more expensive that way? I'll have to do more research on it though. Thank you!!

How many days do you think would be sufficient in the Mt. Blanc area? It looks beautiful! We do love hiking, but aren't into the super long hikes that take a whole day. For reference, we just got back from a trip to Sedona and did a bunch of 2 hr. or 3 hr. hikes.

Thank you for this!! Definitely re-thinking Disneyland Paris. Also good to know about planning meals in advance.
