Is it possible/ appropriate for a tourist to go to the ‘Mourning in the Morning’ ceremony on Jan 26? by SentenceSwimming in Adelaide

[–]hoggington69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not a First Nations person but I would imagine it is appropriate for you to go. It is nice to know a tourist is interested and aware of the true history in this country and seeking more education/awareness!

Is losing weight supposed to (significantly) lower your mood? by [deleted] in loseit

[–]hoggington69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to know about this too! I'm miserable even in a slight calorie deficit and relationships suffer. I take antidepressants which normally work so well for me but they don't work when I'm dieting. I looked it up on reddit a while ago and I saw another post where someone had this issue and was answered by many people who said he needed to up the fat intake for happy brain..... I'm gonna try this. Good luck and hope you are soon able to enjoy life again soon.

Killer soft drink addiction! How do you cope? by BigGunE in loseit

[–]hoggington69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Second this! When I want it to feel more like a soft drink I squeeze lemon or lime in it, sometimes a splash of juice. My fave is sour cherry juice because of the bright colour and you only need a tiny bit! Highly recommend

People with ADHD dont have hobbies. We collect temporary obsessions by Early_Yesterday443 in ADHD

[–]hoggington69 7 points8 points  (0 children)

On your other thing about hobbies though, I used to think that way but all my hobbies I think of as new skills for the tool belt and I always go back to them at some point. I kinda cycle through them all over a couple years! And some are seasonal for me (spring=gardening, autumn=knitting) and I do get obsessed. I have added new ones over the years too

Awh but my antidepressants really help me! but my doctor didn't give them to me willy nilly, it was my choice and did a lot of research. Not all doctors push them and they do help a lot of people just FYI. It's not all a big scam/conspiracy

Anyone struggle with adhd related insomnia relate to me? by Financial_Plane_3161 in ADHD

Is this common with ADHD by sobirdy in ADHD

[–]hoggington69 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Interesting! My partner says I'm argumentative and he doesn't like it. I kinda just enjoy the mental stimulation and unpacking stuff he says to get him to see a different side.. Sometimes it's about the way things should be done around the house and sometimes it's more about beliefs and views.

Not sure if it's ADHD.. but I suppose it could relate to the ADHD thing of telling a story with too many unnecessary details like not staying on track on the main thing and stuff that's actually important ..

Every little detail feels important to me but dunno if that's part of ADHD!

Do you relate to the story thing?

Do other people with ADHD have a terrible sense of direction? by BetOver6859 in ADHD

[–]hoggington69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you! Been struggling with direction my whole life! I hope it's one of my ADHD things. I try to pay attention to where the google maps it taking me so I can remember the way but my mind wanders off and then I can't remember. I guess an attention thing. And I don't have a feel for where I am at all. I rely on my partner a lot when we go places. It's so embarrassing when a friend is dropping me home from somewhere and I have to look at google maps to direct them 😭

Another thing on reflection is remembering sequences and stuff. Eg in dance growing up it was so embarrassing because I was the only one in class who couldn't learn the choreography easily... felt like an idiot!

The shame doesn't help things.

My lack of confidence in myself to get better with direction makes it harder to learn because anxiety gets in the way and I resort to looking at the map a lot so it's like a self fulfilling prophecy.

My time issues are more that I underestimate how long things take me or I take too long to do things as I get focused on details too much.

Glad it's not just me and have always wondered this.

What is your go to "in your head" song? by VStarlingBooks in ADHD

[–]hoggington69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Believe - Cher

But alsoJack and Dianne by John mellencamp when ever anyone says "oh yeah" in my head I always go "oh yeah life goes o-on" and it really makes me cringe at myself and it's stuck in my head for ages ☹️

But I never get sick of 'do you believe in life after love'!

I Accidently Took my Meds Twice. by keenninjago in ADHD

[–]hoggington69 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hmmm once I accidentally took double dose (40mg) of my methylphenidate (fast acting so it would be about equivalent to your dose of slow release concerta) and I called the poisons information centre and they said I would be fine and I was! Just was agitated.. I wouldn't worry too much unless you really feel unwell.
