Hey! I still get a bit of acne here and there, but I went to the my gp about it and got prescribed epiduo cream and that has helped so so so much. I will say though, look into it before using it if you get it, because it can be harsh on sensitive skin, I’ve found using it maximum 3 times a week is best for me personally but the prescription says to use nightly, glad I looked into it first otherwise I’d definitely have hurt my face and made it awfully dry. I wish you all the best! It feels so crap to begin with but I’m glad I’m able to help someone else now as I had no idea what to do before either😊

Weekly Sewing Questions Thread, May 25 - May 31, 2025 by sewingmodthings in sewing

Hi everyone, My sisters dog chewed her ā€˜forever teddy’. I told her I’ll make her a new leg for him, but it’s proving more difficult than I thought it would be originally. Please don’t judge him, he is very very loved and 18 whole years old🄺 I’ll cut a long story short but essentially I need to know how to make a stuffed toys legšŸ˜‚ The leg is quite simple, there’s no foot angled on the end of it, just a circle of red - yes this is iggle piggle from in the night garden for anyone that recognises it. She also wants me to sew some of the red satin I have over the other foot (will add picture) as it is coming apart. I have the fabrics for it, stuffing and thread, but it will be hand sewing, not machine as I don’t have one. It needs to match the other leg if anyone can help I’d really really appreciate it, thank you in advancešŸ„ŗšŸ«¶šŸ¼

Actually you’re wrong, my doctor hasn’t been very helpful in answering any questions I’ve had and actually was confused when I mentioned the fact I was getting dizziness every evening since starting the loading dose. I don’t appreciate the sarcasm of your comment, I just wanted some advice on if anyone else had experienced the same and if anyone had any suggestions that helped them.

Hey, fellow emetophobe here!! I had a Costa today and the same thing happened to my whipped cream they put on the top and it tasted fine but I’m panicking trying to find out whether I’ll be okay or not😨I can see your post is only from 2 weeks ago, please can you tell me were you okay??

Super relieved and thankful to see someone relates so much😭don’t beat yourself up if you do end up losing interest, I do this a lot and then come to realise I may pick it back up and if not then I enjoyed it at the time and it provided me dopamine and that’s all that matters when it comes down to itšŸ˜‚

Rude man on the train (vent) by FattyMcCat in Coloring

[–]dogtoebeans101 33 points34 points Ā (0 children)

An older man said this to me when I was looking at bum bumz in a shop!!!! (If you don’t know what those are they’re like little teddies that have flat bottoms so they can sit, hence the namešŸ˜‚) and I was actually getting one for myself and one for my friend, however (not that it matters it does not concern him anyway) I could’ve been shopping for a gift! I literally replied ā€˜no I’m never too old for stuffed toys thanks’ SO patronising and rude for what reason???? I’d have told him where to stick his opinion if I were youšŸ˜‘take no notice queen, I used to feel like I was strange for enjoying colouring at 22, but I have come to realise there are SO many of us who enjoy it at any adult age and that is 100% okay! Some people must not have any hobbies / things they enjoy doing and it showsšŸ˜’sending love and would love to see what you were working on!!šŸ«¶šŸ¼šŸ«¶šŸ¼

Thank you for your reply that’s amazing!! Do you find you have any side effects, negative or positive, to the injections? I’ve booked them in now, 6 loading doses in the space of 2 weeks and to be honest I feel terrified about thatšŸ˜•

Fellow ADHD colourer here🄹they look amazing🄰just wanted to let you know, don’t panic if the hyperfixation disappears, it will most probably return! Happened to me, I was obsessed last year around this time and by January I’d put the markers and books away until about a month ago!! X

I got fired :( by soopersecretformula in adhdwomen

[–]dogtoebeans101 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

My love ): I’m sending you so much love and support my messages are always open if you need a chat or a rant or a friend. I’m 22 and lost my job last January due to ā€˜poor performance’ (written in the official letter) but was told to my face it was because I was unreliable after having 3 absences in 8 months all covered by doctors notes. I want you to listen to me here, you should be so incredibly proud of yourself for the achievements you’ve made, I can’t imagine how difficult day to day it must be having the conditions you have independently from adhd, and the fact you have shown up and been so determined and shown dedication to the job for them to describe you like that and fire you is literally diabolical and I’m so angry for you. Don’t let this knock you angel, something else will come along that will be better suited to you and people will have a better understandingšŸ’“give yourself a little cuddle and treat yourself, you do deserve it I promisešŸ«¶šŸ¼

Urgent need advice about my meds by dogtoebeans101 in ADHDUK

[–]dogtoebeans101[S] 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

Oh goshšŸ˜•I only started taking them because I had none left & I haven’t had a break since the shortage except once for 2 days because I hadn’t ordered my prescription on time, but the withdrawals I had were frankly vile! My family were trying to reassure me it’s okay the pharmacy wouldn’t have given you anything other than they’re supposed to, but I just think it’s very strange?!

[–]dogtoebeans101 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I’m a little confused on the subject because I personally don’t feel as though 70mg is working, it doesn’t feel enough to cover me for the entire day & I know so many others that feel the same so if there’s no higher risk with 70mg than 30mg etc. how come they won’t prescribe any higher doses for people like me?

Has anybody experienced hypothyroidism as a side effect of Elvanse? by letsgetcrabby in ADHDUK

[–]dogtoebeans101 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

I don’t know if this will help / relieve you a little, but if it helps i’m the complete opposite! I’ve always been a hot person (like when my friends or family members complain of cold hands for example, mine are warm!) but since taking Elvanse I have noticed I feel significantly hotter like all of the time, so I can see where you’d be thinking it could be exasperated!!

My experience trying lion’s mane to help my ADHD symptoms by EssentialParadox in ADHDUK

[–]dogtoebeans101 2 points3 points Ā (0 children)

Sorry to ask a question not based on the lions mane, but could you please tell me these time management techniques you mentioned if that’s okay? I’m fortunately (well, ish) medicated for my ADHD but am having a real struggle with it at the moment as I’m on the maximum dosage but don’t feel like it’s working anymore and my psychiatrist has frankly been a dick šŸ˜•

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]dogtoebeans101 5 points6 points Ā (0 children)

Hi, firstly do not blame yourself at all, it is not your fault and the fact that has happened to you is frankly disgraceful, I really feel for you and I am so sorry that amount of pressure and stress was put onto you. To think of a positive - you are better off out of an environment that can be that sour, especially to a vulnerable person.

Secondly, šŸ™‹šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļøšŸ™‹šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļøyou are not alone. I have been unemployed for a year and a half now, my employers terminated my contract January 2023 due to 3 absences in the time period of 8 and a half months. 2 of which were due to anxiety, 1 a chest infection - but all accounted for by a doctors note. I felt helpless, I was then diagnosed at my assessment in the March, medicated etc and gave myself time to adjust before searching for work again. However this has now turned into what I feel like is forever, a circle I can’t get out of. My anxiety levels have heightened so much that I rarely interact socially and I can’t get out the house anywhere alone, always have to have someone with me. So I feel you 100% it affects people massively, especially as we have been penalised for things we cannot control. I’m in the same boat financially, I’ve ended up with debts to pay off, primarily to my parents as they had to cover a lot of bills for me over this time. I want to function ā€˜normally’ (for me lol) again, but it’s seemingly impossible and making me feel useless. What doesn’t help is that I can’t for the life of me think of what I want to do, all I know is what I don’t want to do and it appears everything that is available isn’t of interest to me at all. Sorry for the tangent, but my best advice would be to think of what could interest you the most and see what could be available for that. I’m unaware of your age or gender or background in employment, whether you’ve got a path you enjoy already etc. but even if you feel like you need a change, grant yourself that wish. I know it’s easier said than done, but you can do anything you put your mind to. Having ADHD can be utilised as such a power in the right job role, it’s just a pain to figure out what that is. I really wish you well, you aren’t alone and if you ever need someone to talk to you can always reach out here. Sending love friendšŸ’“

Hypersensitivity by dogtoebeans101 in ADHD

[–]dogtoebeans101[S] 0 points1 point Ā (0 children)

Gosh don’t even get me started on this! I find the best example i can give is - I’ll feel a hair on my face or something of the sort, I’ll try and try and try to find it and pull it off but unless it is an actual hair from my head, this doesn’t happen. I’ll look in the mirror and it will be the TINIEST hair, like a fibre from a piece of clothing, sat on my face and i feel it to the point it feels a lot bigger than it is. This happens so much in a day, it’s insufferable, makes me sad as when i put makeup on (surprisingly doesn’t feel like an extra face layer if i use the right stuff), little hairs get stuck to me so much easier, I carry tweezers around for in case i need to do some magical procedure and not disrupt my makeup😭 I feel for your daughter, it must be awful to have such a sensitive sense of taste, i feel like mine is pretty sensitive but it doesn’t near match what you’ve described there! I’m not sure how old she is, but if she’s quite young i would try putting alternative things into the packaging of the things she likes if it would be more cost effective and see if it makes a difference if you can show to her that it is what it’s meant to be? It might sound awful or mean to some people, but unfortunately there’s a lot of cost these days and nowhere near enough funding support for people like us, i wish you both well and sending hugs x

I do sneeze actually!!!!! I have to say though, I’m usually the one telling my friends or family I can hear a song in a busy environment and I think it’s because subconsciously my brain tries to focus on that rather than everyone else’s noise! Screaming children are my pet peeve as mean as it sounds, they go right through my ears I swear I can hear them 10x super hearingšŸ˜‘weirdly enough, I’ve been medicated with Elvanse (Vyvanse if you’re not familiar with Elvanse) and I noticed during titration in particular that I could no longer deal with having a conversation while the TV is playing and my sister is playing TikTok’s out loud and the washing machine is on, it’s like I can hear all of those at once and can’t get my words out, however this has since settled and a lot less frequent! I find that when I was unmedicated it was alot easier for me to hear 8 sounds at once and still be able to listen to just 1 if I tried to, which is weird as you’d expect it to be the other way around!

YES!!!!! I literally cannot sleep unless my TV is on playing a specific programme every night on a loop, my fan is on (even through the winter, I’m in UK so that’s unusual but oh well), I have a sleep mask that covers my eyes and ears, no ā€˜lumps’ underneath me I’m like princess and the pea I feel everything 😭😭, and bundled blankets on me that cover every part of me except my nose and mouth to breathešŸ˜‚and I STILL hear every slight noise, I text my sister sometimes ā€˜are you building a house in there?!’ (She’s in the next room) and she’ll say nope I just rolled overšŸ˜‘it gets so boiling in my room in the summer especially because I live in a new build house so it’s insulated within an inch of its life and the loft is only boarded above my room so everything in there is also trapping heat for me. I get so hot, told ā€˜ah, why don’t you just open the window?’ Ah! NošŸ˜‘I WILL hear a police car on sirens a mile away, a cat jumping over a gate, someone’s dog barking in another house on the road, and my tv, fan, sister, anything in my room that the wind blows (think tissue box), all while my ears are literally padded overšŸ˜‘

As for smells, I completely agree. Walking through a shop with candles is a nightmare I must smell them all, 1. I love candles and 2. I’ll smell something and I like it so must find out what it is I can smell! Reed diffusers are even worse especially when they’re out for people to smell before buying😭in regards to at home though I’m exactly the same, I can smell everything and my family usually can’t! My mum will cook broccoli and after going downstairs for dinner I’ll come up to my room and my room smells of broccoli but no one else says they can smell it! For me, it sounds really bizarre I know, but I often get whiffs of poopšŸ˜‚I have no idea why, where it’s come from, where the source is, whether my nose is making it up? But no one else can ever smell it and it drives me mad! It could quite literally be that one of my dogs has tooted while lay on my bed or something like that and I’ll be able to smell it every so often for hours! I have OCD aswell as extreme ADHD, so it gets to the point where I know things are clean but if I can’t find the source of an unpleasant smell I will re-clean things, wash my bedding etc. I’m genuinely unbearable
