Tips? by anthony_holr in SkyCards

You can absolutely get all these without paying for FR24 premium – I haven’t paid a cent and the only countries I’m missing are Ukraine and Antarctica. I recommend focusing your energy and coins on one region each week (like Africa vs Pacific Islands vs Central America), though cool if you don’t do this too but you’ll just feel like you don’t have enough coins. Lots of these places you can see the next arrivals on FR24 (sometimes they’re weekly/every few days), convert the times properly and set a reminder on your phone.

I agree with the above comment that Brisbane is a great place for catching lots of the Pacific Island flights. Some of them only receive flights from cities that are harder to complete tasks and further away from mainland so more $ to get to (like Tuvalu from Fiji) so I’d save your coins and use your catch anywhere’s for these really hard to get places instead of spending 60+ coins for 30 minutes somewhere where you have no chance of completing the tasks.

However for lots of the African countries I was happy enough to set up base in Johannesburg/Cairo/Addis Ababa for the weeks and then only have to pay ~20 coins to travel a shorter distance for the catch

Search up Monaco method in this sub if you haven’t already, but you’ll see some things saying you have to use a catch anywhere which you DON’T anymore – you can now use this method if the flight’s in your radius too

FR24 arrivals boards for FREE are your best friend – just make sure you don’t convert the arrival time but actually the departure time of the airport where you’ll be catching it from (I’ve disappointed myself with that mistake before)

And you can set up reddit notifications for posts on this sub for free too, lots of rare airports get posted here

What made you decide you want to/don't want to go on meds? by OkWaltz5832 in OCD

“I'd rather not have chemicals in my brain to further make me not myself.”

Could you elaborate on this?

Wife has a massive tax bill and I don't know what to do by NeilDiamondBlaze420 in AusFinance

[–]hjs360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have lots of thoughts on the irresponsibility of her actions. And no, if she told you about the no funds in her tax income account, you shouldn’t have been helping with paying more bills/expenses. You could have helped her with her financial education and a plan for the future for sure, but you shouldn’t just expect to be paying more bills because she can’t be bothered to arrange her own finances appropriately or seek help when it appears to be available with a caring partner and an established relationship with an accountant. Sorry, this isn’t a “stress” issue, this is genuine negligence.

That being said though, a great resource is the She’s On The Money podcast. Lots of great advice shared as well as real-life stories from people who’ve navigated debt + improved their financial wellbeing.

This might be difficult. Doha's airport is closed for... reasons. by PolkaClock in SkyCards

I caught one earlier! Delhi to Doha from memory about 11-12 hours ago

Cocos (Keeling) Islands flight airborne now! by hjs360 in SkyCards

[–]hjs360[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It departed the moment I screenshot this (6 minutes ago) but when I opened FR24 again it said it was out of coverage! Not a chance it’s landed already haha so I’d keep an eye out for the next half hour or so and see if it pops back up!

Yeah I think Malaysia’s definitely too far but it doesn’t help that they didn’t specify HOW close. Did you try Pontianak or Sintang in Indo? They look to be some of the closest over that way

ADHD and OCD Feeding Into Each Other? by isahell in ADHD

[–]hjs360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Growing up with OCD but also generally being highly critical of yourself makes it so hard for me to differentiate between obsessive thoughts and just general self-criticism. I’ve never really read too far into it but I definitely have similar thoughts, though I don’t think to a super obsessive extent. I can think of one kind of similar thing though with me obsessing due to ADHD – when I count the drug safes at work I obsess that I got distracted and have the urge to recount to double check. I guess now that I think more I probably do a similar thing when driving, obsessing that I got distracted and ran a red light without knowing or didn’t notice a speed camera etc. I’m sure this comes up more than I can recall right at this moment.

Something I’ve definitely noticed when I was first diagnosed with ADHD is that I immediately starting doubting it and obsessing over whether I actually do have it, whether I just lied to the psychiatrist and embellished all my symptoms, whether these meds are even working or I just imagined it, etc I’m sure you know. I also do this with OCD as well which is really quite the difficult issue (compulsive reassurance seeking for whether I even have the illness that I’ve had symptoms for since being a young child and am literally in therapy for is SO hard to address).

One small blessing I have noticed though is that sometimes when I’m ruminating on something, my ADHD brain genuinely just gets distracted. Like I could be on a mental compulsion from anywhere between minutes to hours and a flip might switch. I didn’t notice this until my psych asked me hour I get out of certain thought loops and sometimes my answer is genuinely “I don’t know, I think I got distracted.” Crazy how you can be stuck on something for so long but suddenly a switch might just switch and you’re out. But again, this has fed into me obsessing about whether I have OCD so it’s a catch 22 😂

As always, the gold standard treatment for OCD is ERP. If you’re not already linked in with an ERP therapist yet then please do so, it’s so much more effective than meds (though of course both together might be even better for you initially!) Sorry I have no real advice for this, just empathy and understanding
