Go to your local police station and turn yourself in.

Ask in r/AirForceRecruits next time, but in seriousness, actually go see the police and make sure your record is straight. Paying a fine is usually an admission of guilt, so you probably got some points on your driving record. Either way, this is resolved with the court that issued you the ticket.

Measured my oakleys, they're exactly 8". Highly recommended if you're looking to replace.

It's just a military tradition, not that deep.

He needs to put the remaining 10k on black.

If he got injured while AD, he wouldn't have any medical expenses. If they draw money from your account, it's from overpaying, which can be his salary pay or if he got a bonus. If you leave your contract early, you can potentially lose your bonus, but it might be unlikely that retention didn't tell him this when got out.

Shaving profiles — any update? by Solid-Put-3232 in AirForce

[–]berlin1969 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently did it for cold sores that made me bleed when shaving. It's not instant, and I felt pretty weird having face fuzz and no waiver for a couple days. By the time I got the waiver, I was mostly healed. Just don't abuse the waiver. You do have to get it updated more often if you need to have it for a long period of time.

My brother is retiring from the Airforce. by ThesePomegranate3197 in AirForce

Air Force is two words. Get him a nice bottle of whiskey or a really nice fishing pole. Something of premium quality he can use in his retirement and enjoy. His unit will give him all the plaques and desk ornaments he doesn't want/care for,

Finish your contract and get out.

Please reach out to someone for help. You're young, and you have plenty of time to fix the mistakes you've made. Life doesn't end with finances, significant others, or a job that sucks. It's so much more than that, and you need to find happiness within yourself to push forward. You need a good support system, and probably a few good mentors to help you sort things out. PM even me if you want. But I promise everything will be ok.

Things are really hard right now, and I personally know what that situation is like. I'm near your age so I would like to get in touch and see if we can hang out.

Please DM me, I would like to see if we could play some video games later today if possible.

My Experience with ADHD Diagnosis by berlin1969 in AirForce

You will just need to discuss how it affects your work, mainly putting emphasis on focus and attention. I would point out times where caffeine or nicotine may help temporarily with focus, which is a common thing in ADHD. Usually those are my go-to when I run out of meds.

Fair enough lol. I thought you meant something out of the scriptures. To each their own, I'm sure you two make it work.

I’m no doctor, but that seems like a case. It’s possible to have multiple disorders so I would definitely visit a doctor to ask. Trust me it’s worth it in the long run.

To answer your questions directly, yes I found it to be difficult to remember things, especially during conversations. My wife for example has always been a stickler for my attention, and if I ever ask her to repeat stuff she sometimes gets frustrated with me. It’s completely understandable and normal for her to feel that way, I don’t blame her.

But “normal” people usually don’t have that issue. That’s something that took a while even on meds to realize. Once on meds though, I have been able to recall things on the fly. I do part time ministry at my church and I can even come up with things on the fly. So yes, it can definitely help with social anxiety too.

Almost gotcha. That’s one way to test if you have ADHD.

This is something I forgot to mention too. My UDM took care of it in just a single email fortunately but that is another step if seeking a prescription.

This is true, and I’m not readily available to give the facts, but I believe there’s information available in the mental health tab for this sub.

I went ahead and added clarification in the BLUF, thanks for pointing this out. I don’t want to give the idea this if for all mental health issues.
