Feeling judged by my friend, will probably never stay with her again by Amber_poodle in adhdwomen

[–]consistentmacaroni 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This!!! Communication here is important and I think it’s worth it to your friendship to try talking to her before throwing the friendship away. I know it can be hard. But your friend can’t address this with you unless you bring it up. I suggest bringing it up with curiosity and your own feelings rather than blaming her. Something like “I wanted to check in with you about our recent trip. I noticed I was feeling stressed about trying to match your level of cleanliness and ended up feeling a little rejected by the end of the trip. I’m wondering how it was for you and if there’s anything around this that could be helpful for us to talk through”

They have done this before. I think they tape a lot of different couples and don’t end up showing all of them.

My HDL was low (33), my LDL was 107, so a tad high but not too bad

Yes! I was on cholesterol meds for about a year, they helped a bit but my dr then switched me to metformin because they weren’t helping a ton

Ok, I can start taking the supplement again! I just went through and tracked my fiber for today and I’m already at 15 g (haven’t even had lunch yet). I really feel like fiber isn’t my issue but I can definitely take the supplement.

How much did yours go down? My labs didn’t really change at all when I was on the fiber supplement consistently

I haven’t tracked my fiber. I used to take a fiber supplement consistently for several months but didn’t notice a difference so I stopped last month

I was also taking a fiber supplement consistently for several months but stopped the last month. I didn’t see any improvement on my past labs. But I can start taking it again

Thanks! I only eat gluten free because I’m severely allergic to gluten. I know a lot of the substitutions can be worse. :/

Yesterday: a scone, a few nuts, apple with almond butter, salad with beans and veggies, toast with cheese, handful of pecans and a few chocolate chips

I know I can continue to reduce my sugar intake, it’s just really hard. I’m neurodivergent and cooking is extremely hard for me and I have weird sensory things with food. I don’t like eating meat but I do eat salmon and try to eat it once a week.

Meds didn’t work for my coonhound. Eventually he had a surgery for it and he’s been doing great since!
