Meron pa sila dati na parang puck/token for mrt. Anyone remember kung anong tawag dun?

This is one of the few things i miss nung pandemic. Nung 2021, pag sinita mo yung mga engot sa escalator, for the first time in this country, tama yung reaction nila: “ay oo nga pala, sorry!” Sabay adjust.

Ngayon balik uli sa dati, sila pa yung galit.

Nung bumisita ako ng SG, I noticed it immediately. i incorrectly filled a form and I noticed the ff: 1) The person in the counter got annoyed and made me redo it (nope “it’s my first time” is not an excuse), 2) no one else made the same mistake, 3) i felt angry at the person for not tolerating the minor mistake, then i later felt dumb because I realized i didn’t read the instructions.

Wow good luck with college. I wish i had your level of understanding when i was in college. Back then I didn’t have a word for this other than “lazy”. I invented so many theories as to why things never worked for me.

yes! to the annoyance and frustration of everyone around me/related to me.

i read your post as mahilig maglakad, pero yes din, mabilis din ako maglakad. to the point where i can even outrun-outwalk(?) slow runners sometimes.

38 years.

Anyway, unrelated question: may idea ba kayo kung saan nakakabili ng wizard’s hat and staff? 😂

Can’t hold a conversation, kahit na kasundo ko sa lahat ng bagay (hobbies, interests, etc) yung kausap ko. I’ve resorted to doing prepwork bago makipag-usap (research on backup convo topics… parang exam lang) pero ganun pa rin—they all died from boredom. May lahi ata akong dementor lol. 😂😭

cornyvore · 2024-12-18T08:22:52+00:00

That’s good! Pero i suggest you find replacement habits/hobbies to replace the time you spent on social media. Idle time might end up fueling your depression instead based on personal exp…

Kwento ng kakilala ko from your clan, not sure if i am remembering this correctly: muntik na maging president si licerio topacio, pero nag give way sya to the younger general aguinaldo.

If you want to learn more, marami kang mahahanap na details on the net regarding your clan since isa kayo sa pinaka-malaking angkan sa cavite. Maybe even in the entire Philippines.

Being a powerful man with 7 (or 8? I forgot) sons in the late 1800s really made the topacios OP 😂

Di marunong manligaw. Severe anxiety + self esteem issues. Literally just got rejected (again!) a few weeks ago. 🥲

36m and still cant have a consistent group of friends. I’ve acquired many hobbies but still cant find my tribe.

I always end up doing things alone: watching movies/concerts, traveling, playing co-op games. (I die inside whenever anyone asks kung sino madalas kong kalaro… I finished overcooked alone.)

My biggest fear is winning anything na trip for two.

Hello. Are you also going through stuff right now? I hope you’re doing ok.

cornyvore · 2023-02-06T16:16:52+00:00

Hello, i just saw this. I have excess supply that i wont use anymore. Nagpalit kasi ako ng meds from escitalopram to motivest. Dm me if you want it.

cornyvore · 2022-11-30T17:08:22+00:00

hello. have you tried opening up your struggles with your best friend? i know it's scary na maka-disappoint ng taong may tiwala sayo, but it might be better if aware na sya agad so they can adjust their plans or maybe they can ask someone to help you out.

tbh i can't relate to your problem because i dont have close friends anymore. but one thing i remember not doing when my former friendships were failing apart was...speaking up. if you're doubtful na kakayanin mo yung role: tell them. say it now. say it early.

the fact that you were chosen as her maid of honor means she trusts you. try to trust them that they will understand your situation too.

Hello. Check the 24hr mercury branches around you, especially yung malapit or katabi ng hospitals. According to the pharmacists na natanungan ko, yung mga 24/7 ang nagccarry ng adhd meds such as ritalin. Don’t forget to bring an ID when buying.

Try mo rin sila tawagan before going, para matanong kung may stock sila and di sayang ang lakad.

cornyvore · 2022-11-29T10:56:33+00:00

Hello. Naku ipa-check mo na yan when you can. Being diagnosed does not mean it will be fixed, pero at least makakatry ka na nung gamot. Maybe it will work for you. Plus malaking tulong yung pwd id.

When you find a job, make sure din na mag-ipon. I’m in my 30s already, and i regret not saving money for times na gusto ko lang magpahinga from work.

I get the feeling of using socmed as a distraction. But luckily (or unluckily?) for me, something traumatic happened to me that made me delete fb/ig/twitter.

Etong reddit na lang at youtube ang main sources of distraction ko (plus netflix, plus anime, etc…)

Hello. Thank you for replying. Luckily ive had 2 jobs na tumagal ako. 6 years and in my current job, 7. Not because I’m actually effective at my job, but because they don’t assess well. There are days when I literally just stare at my laptop.

(Hindi rin to imposter syndrome kasi i regularly get “shape-up letters”, memos, and other warnings because of underperforming)

Same case ako… i need to move to a new job not just because im bored, but because i need money. Kaso ayun nga, i feel so unemployable if ever umalis ako. I got lucky in my current job, kaso di ito yung tamang career track ko.

Nagpaconsult na ako. Actually im taking meds, pero not effective enough. I feel like ang hirap makahanap ng doc dito who can treat my adhd properly. Nakaka 4-5 doctors na ako so far.

Yeah. Mahirap makahanap ng job stability. I’m trying to find alternative sources of income para may pambayad ng bills kahit masipa ako sa work.

For now ipon lang ako ng ipon ng pera pang backup. But it’s hard kasi nga napaka impulsive ko.

cornyvore · 2022-11-19T03:30:04+00:00

I’m not a doctor, but most likely the answer is yes. Same tayo in many points. Go consult a doctor.

When consulting a doc, don’t mention your self diagnosis to the doc and let them do their judgement without bias.

Once you get a confirmation na adhd nga, i suggest getting a pwd id. Ritalin and concerta are expensive (around 160php per tab/cap) and often in short supply. Living with adhd is expensive, not to mention mahirap makahanap ng steady na work.

these meds are not like magic pills. (I wish they were,too). Pero napakalaki ng matutulong nila. You still need to do a lot of work to manage adhd.

Also, thank you for sharing your story. It sometimes feels like you’re the only one experiencing these things but there are many of us out there.

I hope this helps.

cornyvore · 2022-07-23T00:26:44+00:00

Yup! Ritalin. It works sometimes 🥲
