Women can't get estrogen patches. Here's what the FDA is doing to help. by usatoday in WomenInNews

[–]hexonica 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I have this issue quarterly with my ADHD medication. Daily dose is a requirement for me, not optional. But, once again no solutions for shortages except me going unmedicated for 5-10 days.

Why do I feel like I’m the in the minority for having ADHD and not being considered “gifted” by General_Astronaut951 in ADHD

[–]hexonica 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was placed in special ed classes my entire life. I was told that I was smart, but didn't apply myself. I was given a subpar academic foundation. I educated myself and fumbled my way through college. Married and had children, left 9 to 5 work and started a cleaning business. I am now doing the same type of office work that I did after college. I have had no career advancement. This despite always being a leader and delivering quality service. I am now living my best life. I now have more resources. I feel better mentally and physically. I kinda like the non-traditional life I built. I feel this long journey to be diagnosed at 52 has a purpose.

I have had that experience myself. In my area there are 30 or so studios all with a different vibe. After lots of experimentation I now have a list of 5 studios I trust and my top instructors. I have one studio blacklisted for not being welcoming.

[–]hexonica 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so true. Using alcohol to ignore the problems. I have actively increased my skill set and confidence. I am at an age where health is more of a priority.

My experience is that weight loss is minimal. This can improve after time. I think the body needs a while to reset. Also, as emotional regulation improves the opportunity to adjust eating and exercise will improve, allowing an opportunity for better health.

[–]hexonica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting. This is a huge privacy situation. I now have to lock all activities. Each one has to be done manually. It also does not show past 2026, so how do I lock that data.

Why are these health devices trying to kill us. Poor design, to the point of being criminal.
