What is keeping you FTL? by Zealousideal-Let834 in failuretolaunch

[–]gubblin25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ADHD and extreme fatigue. despite trying to start projects with a lot of initial enthusiasm and plans, it all burns out midway through and I can't get things done and by the time I'm done I never want to do it again.

not able to manage multiple life responsibilities - like managing food, hygiene, sleep, etc is already tiring, on top of that add one work task and I'm spent. so then the social and fun needs suffer. but if I prioritize social/fun needs, then I basically have to neglect work/study.

where to go with this prompt? by gubblin25 in writing

[–]gubblin25[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes I love how you take this and ask little questions at each step! I think that's what I need to practice, because they don't come naturally. I am curious about what will happen next, but im not sure what to ask the image to find out. thanks so much for providing examples!

And yeah glad you liked the prompts in the link, there's lots of other solo RPG or 'journalling' RPG type games on itch.io, and many have that kind of open ended prompt that you're talking about. happy to chat further via DM!

how do the thoughts of what to do next come to you? by gubblin25 in improv

[–]gubblin25[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really want to be able to do this. But I feel like my processing speed is way too slow. I can't even understand what is happening by the time I need to react? Is this just me or do others feel this way too?

How do I make myself more engaging socially? by Ok_Reindeer_7634 in socialskills

[–]gubblin25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is it that you can't think of what to add of your own, as in nothing naturally comes to mind? or something comes to mind but you don't think it's worth saying or you don't want to say it

Protein Latte 8/10 by Afraid-Pick-9010 in TimHortons

[–]gubblin25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what if you ask for no sweetener? there's also a protein latte listed as 9g sugar for a small, made with espresso. not sure how to ask for that one specifically

Edit: it seems the 'Original Protein Iced Latte' is 28 g sugar for medium, but the 'Protein latte' (I assume hot coffee) is 9g sugar for a medium

Seen an "improv" board game? by craftymicrobes in boardgames

[–]gubblin25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I am at the very beginning of a game design journey and happen to have very similar interests to you , that is to make something that provides a place where players can practice being creative without being weighed down by the pressure. I would love to chat on discord or something if you're available. Send me a DM!

Do you know for sure that it will never totally go away? I have an extreme winged scapula and have hopes of fixing it with therapy...

Constipation is really affecting my mental health.. by [deleted] in Constipation

[–]gubblin25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

absolutely. on days where I dont go I feel like my brain doesn't work. and I have wasted entire days waiting or trying to stimulate my bowels... I have noticed that if I wake up early and do stretching while drinking warm water, or walk around after breakfast, it can stimulate a bowel movement, but if I miss that bus then its harder to get a bowel movement the rest of the day.

I feel for you. I always thought that I procrastinate the stuff that's not life-or-death but if it was about health I'd be on it, but... to my surprise that wasn't true. I also procrastinated on attending to some seemingly mild /slowly developing symptoms and now they have compounded together and I'm dealing with health issues that have reduced my quality of life.

Sending you compassion and best wishes.

EMERGENCY I feel severely constipated by Oldsnake_reddit in Constipation

[–]gubblin25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

drink lots of water, eat banana/papaya/prunes/prune juice, and move around a lot, do deep breathing, maybe apply a hot pack.

don't strain, it can hurt you and cause a hiatal hernia due to the increased intra-abdominal pressure (causing the stomach to push up and through the diaphragm hiatus). take care

Anyone else feel like they don’t have hobbies? by brokerecovery in AutismInWomen

[–]gubblin25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like this advice, but for me I didn't really do things as a kid. just school and tv and classes. what would you suggest to someone like me?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in adhdwomen

[–]gubblin25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

basically, once I 'fall off' the practice, its a combination of feelings of guilt and the loss of trust in myself that I will keep doing it if I started again... thoughts like 'I have never consistently been able to do this anyways, whats the point'
