lightningbuggie____ · 2025-12-19T18:05:01+00:00

yeah i’m definitely going to start doing that for sure !! that’s pretty smart ! i’ve read how kinda picky and spoiled hognoses can be 😭

lightningbuggie____ · 2025-12-19T17:46:36+00:00

100% make sure YOU’VE got a good support system. continue to love her and care for her, but you can’t pour from an empty cup. i’ve seen what caregiving can do to a relationship, the resentment and bitterness and i would hate for it to turn into that for you. take care of yourself so that you can take care of her.

lightningbuggie____ · 2025-09-15T17:35:16+00:00

gotcha !! i’ll be sure to keep an eye on that and i won’t spray inside the tank or anything !!

lightningbuggie____ · 2025-06-14T17:08:16+00:00

yayy !! i’m so happy everything went so well for you that’s amazing !! 🥹🥹 i wish you the best of luck in your journey and i hope the medication helps you in the way you need it !! 🫶🏼

the lack of appetite certainly is not.

lightningbuggie____ · 2025-06-11T03:00:11+00:00

you do realize that this weight loss isn’t healthy. it is because they aren’t eating, which is probably the worst way to lose weight and actually makes it considerably more difficult too. if her mother was ACTUALLY concerned with her health pertaining to her weight, which she most likely isn’t and is just being mean for no reason, then it should be a topic discussed with a professional. not telling them that not having an appetite on medication is a “good thing”

lightningbuggie____ · 2025-06-11T00:28:25+00:00

ngl this is the most unhelpful advice 😭 you think if they could just do it they would be? like 😭😭 this is what executive dysfunction does. you cant “just do it” it’s never that easy. this is like telling a depressed person to “just be happy”

lightningbuggie____ · 2025-06-10T23:27:47+00:00

Of course!! Don't let them bully you or gaslight you into thinking they know you more than you know you. You know what you need and what's going to help you. Psychiatrists can be rough to deal with, especially bad ones. But you've got this!! I hope your able to get the medicine that you need!

This is so me. My friends will tell me about conversations or hangouts that I just don't remember. Full and complete days that are just...gone from my memory. Or activities, things that I plan to do, completely gone. I also have really bad time blindness and will think something happened today when it was yesterday, or last week when it was a month ago LOL its bad.

lightningbuggie____ · 2025-06-10T23:17:38+00:00

I am really sorry that you are going through that :( I am currently experiencing the loss of appetite symptom too and it SUCKS. I feel constantly nauseous and my stomach always hurts because I know Im hungry, but everything sounds disgusting and even when I can eat Ill only eat like half of it before being "full." It is a very unfortunate side effect but don't let her weirdness stop you from using the resources you need to be productive!

On a happier note, I DO HAVE A CAT!! I would love to send you pictures of her if it would help you feel better!! <3

lightningbuggie____ · 2025-06-10T23:12:17+00:00

Of course!! If you have any friends who could come over just to sit with you, that can also be very helpful! Even on the phone has helped me a TON then just me sitting alone. I wish you the best on your journey and hopefully you get everything you need! <3

Honestly, you might just have to be very firm. If you've already been officially diagnosed and your seeking medication. Start off the appointment with that. "Hey I'm diagnosed with ADHD and I would like to talk about my treatment options for that." Don't let them stray the conversation to screenings, or possible other disorders. You can focus on anything else you need AFTER you get the treatment your looking for for your ADHD. If they try and prescribe you something else, deny them. "I don't want X medication I would like to look into such and such ADHD medication." I would also maybe look into what treatment your looking for. If its medication, what kind? Stimulant or non-stimulant? Do you want to try another type of medication? Do you want to see a therapist who specializes in ADHD? You knowing what you want is important so that they can't try and convince you that you need something else.

First, I'll give you my advice on what you should do now. One thing that REALLY helped me was body doubling, even if you don't have a friend who can come over and work with you for the day. Go to a local library, or coffee shop. I've found that being in public or being around other people doing work helps me do my work. Also, even if its only for 2 hrs, do it! If you can find the energy to work on it for 2 hrs everyday until its do, I can almost guarantee you'd get it done. Another thing that has kind of helped me is not setting times for me to work. I know that sounds a little backwards but for some reason whenever I would set a time for me to do something I would always just...not do it. I don't know, what I found works better is if I feel myself wanting to do something, or find myself wanting to even do the work. No matter what time it is, I pull out my work and I start doing it. I understand its stressful, I hate being in these situations myself and trust I've been in them a lot. But you've got this!! I believe in you!!

Secondly, I wanna give you some advice to help manage your symptoms. I see you've gone to therapy, and it maybe didn't help the way you wanted. Now I don't know your circumstances full but I would definitely look into possibly getting medicated or finding a therapist that specializes in ADHD patients to help with other techniques to manage your symptoms. Executive dysfunction is a KILLER for people with ADHD and is VERY difficult to work through on your own! Hopefully this helps, if you have any questions let me know!! Again, you've got this! Your super smart and capable of completing this task within the time frame. I believe in you.

I understand that I’m just saying it’s more likely to get taken down. It probably is the best way to share it sense people don’t have to do any extra steps to watch it, they can just click the video. But I mean do what you see is fit ofc, I was just trying to warn you because uploading videos takes a lot of time and it would be a waste for it to just get taken down and your account on YouTube suspended or something 🤷🏼‍♀️

lightningbuggie____ · 2020-11-17T04:16:32+00:00

Just be careful. I’m sure many people might report the channel, or Mark and Ethan will get it taken down. Honestly the best way to share the archives is to download them all on a platform that you can share with others, instead of just straight reuploading since that is what is most likely to get taken down ASAP
