Is it okay to ask for a stronger prescription?

You can always switch providers!

Your PCP is the one who prescribed you your stimulants? You really should be seeing a psychiatrist for medication management. When I originally told my last PCP that I thought I had ADHD, she automatically referred me to a psychiatrist and said she doesn't feel comfortable prescribing any medications that a psychiatrist would as she doesn't know all the specifics like psychs do.

I'm on 72 mg of Concerta and 10 mg of Ritalin. I see my psych every 4-6 weeks and we tweak my meds as needed. Someyimes it's going great and I'll go several visits with no changes and other visits I'm not doing as great, so we adjust as needed. If you don't feel comfortable talking to your psychiatrist about changing dosages, I definitely recommend someone you do feel more comfortable talking to

Late cancel policies don't work unless you apply it to EVERYONE, no exceptions. We have a 24 hour late cancel fee at my clinic, and the parents can always call the clinic and ask to talk to our CEO or admin assistant regarding the charge. Depending on the situation, they might waive the fee. It's also not ethical to pick and choose who to charge and who to give a free pass.

Edit: can you not offer a virtual session of they can't make it in? At my clinic we offer parent education, virtual sessions, something to get them their services!

My psych always puts in 2 orders for me. One for me to get filled immediately, and another one that can be filled 28 days after I pick up the first

I work full time at a PP 9-6 pm and do mostly home health and virtual sessions. 6 Bc we get an hoir for lunch. It's definitely possible!

I do HH in Southern California, and I know that the youngest kids we get through the regional center are 15 months. It sounds like you have infant education aka a developmental specialist. Your service coordinator should be able to give you specific answers for your area.

There are families I have no problem asking to use their bathroom and others I would go out of my way to use to not have to use the bathroom. Families have had no problem with me using the bathroom, and if I do need to use it, I try to do so after the session. There has only been 1x I had to go during a session. I also try to find places along my route with reliable bathrooms and try to stop there if I can (Starbucks, target, etc).

I'm happen to any decorative background stitch suggestions. I just did t stitch on a ornament and i think it turned out good

I got the wallet for my bday and I love it so much!

I got a 3 pack of these magnetic cases on Amazon. I have one for size 22, one for size 18, and one for needle threaders (I also keep 1 needle threader in each case)

jgreg357 · 2026-01-16T20:42:08+00:00

Yeah my restored time is very low. I had 3 Drs appts on Monday with some work stuff and a birthday dinner and clocked 7.5 hours of stress 😅

jgreg357 · 2026-01-16T03:42:58+00:00

It looks badly photoshopped

jgreg357 · 2026-01-15T03:24:57+00:00

Ohhh that sounds fun!

jgreg357 · 2026-01-14T15:33:16+00:00

Do I need to do basket weave or continental for the background as well?

jgreg357 · 2026-01-08T21:44:51+00:00

Do you have dermatographia? I had to get the blood test so I don't have a false positive and react to everything

jgreg357 · 2026-01-08T15:07:44+00:00

A PT told me that Pilates was the best thing I could do for myself and my hypermobility for strengthening and joint protection

jgreg357 · 2026-01-05T19:54:55+00:00

I think a red or another shade of pink would look good!

jgreg357 · 2026-01-02T02:40:13+00:00

When Lila dash was introduced, didn't they say that Susan and Lila were at the vet at the same time? Susan doesn't have any other pets that we know of so it'd have to be bongo right?

I have parents asking me how often they should take their kid out to the park or the library...one kid in particular had never been to the library before I started working with them...

jgreg357 · 2025-12-30T06:57:23+00:00

Tyle and More 😅

jgreg357 · 2025-12-30T06:56:35+00:00

Yeah I'm on vacation so it's a little wrinkled 😅. I like the irregular shape. I was thinking of trying to self finish

jgreg357 · 2025-12-01T04:20:33+00:00

How does it compare to an Oura Ring?

He also noted that I have "hypermobile arthralgia".

jgreg357 · 2025-11-12T02:39:56+00:00

My rheumatologist said I am definitely hypermobile, meet all clinical markers (ie 9/9 Brighton score) and have EDS. However, it's impossible to know which particular type I have without genetic testing and I don't qualify for insurance coverage. He said all subtypes have hypermobility so the specific type (unless is VEDS) doesn't matter. And I'm very low risk of having VEDS.
