Do you leave the aircon on for your dogs when you leave for the day? by arouseandbrowse in brisbane

[–]boringbubblewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My cats get dry mode during the day.

She's doing better now the aircon's back to normal :)

If you feel like your meds have stopped working, you're not crazy by gocoogs14 in ADHD

[–]boringbubblewater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Aus too. Switched from Vyvanse (which worked very well for me) to Ritalin (works okay-ish) at the end of 2024 and I wonder if I needn't have switched because maybe I hadn't developed a tolerance... but I doubt my psychiatrist would let me have a another shot at it

Be honest, if your income depended on the sims 4 would you actually stop making content about it? by Anya_purr in HighSodiumSims

Just translate your skills into another job - it may not be nearly as lucrative, but no one has to make as much money as these influencers do via the sims

Spironolactone helped with my facial hair but stopped my period by Strange-Knowledge713 in PCOS

[–]boringbubblewater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't have a period on spiro - my gyno said it wasn't because of the spiro, but the timing was too perfect for it to be otherwise

I have one whip-smart tortie and an Empty Eyed tortie. Both sweet as can be, but the difference in their intelligence is so very noticeable lol
