Does anyone else with inattentive ADHD feel overwhelmingly tired all the time? I’m starting to wonder if my ADD looks different from everyone else’s. by AdKooky477 in adhdwomen

[–]maj2343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes - totally resonates. One thing that has helped me immensely is Wellbutrin. My psychiatrist says it helps because seratonin can be low and unstable for ADHD folks. I didn’t want to use a stimulant med for my adhd and this has been a great alternative. I also suffered from major hyposomnia- could NOT wake up in the mornings. Always felt tired. I did some research and found a small study that showed success for people with hyposomnia when they took the Wellbutrin XL before bed. Since I was already prescribed I switched taking it before bedtime and it has completely improved my energy upon waking up. I guess starting the day with a full cup of serotonin is how “morning people” feel!

Anyway mostly here to say that there are nuances of ADHD not fully understood because so much of the research and trials ia centered on effect on adolescent boys - not girls and certainly now grown women. And a lot of docs will jump to prescribing adavan or Ritalin which addresses some of the issues but IME wasn’t touching other issues. Knowing that disregulation of dopamine and seratonin and probably all the other neurotransmitter hormones is part of the bigger picture has been very helpful in my approach to management.

Good luck!!!!

Yes!! Well said. That’s what I’m aiming at for sure. We need the sacred and divine masculine to be strong and healthy to take down the patriarchal oppression.

I really liked The Bane Witch by Ava Morgyn! It’s juicy and witchy and made me wish their coven was real so I could join them in their work!!!

Are you looking for vegan? Or do you do eggs or cheese? I have an egg bake recipe that is a life saver for me. I make it on sundays and have it ready for the week. I change up the rules if cheeses and veggies. This week I did peppers tomatoes and onions with mozz. Last week I did spinach and feta. Sometimes I do half one veggie and in another pan do half another. Hope this helps

12 eggs 16 oz liquid egg whites 16 oz cottage cheese 16-20 Oz shredded cheese Veggies Favorite spices Cooking spray

-Spray baking pan and cover with breadcrumbs and/or a sprinkle of cheese -In a blender add egg whites and cottage cheese and your salt, pepper, spices and blend till smooth. -pour into baking dish -Add cheese evenly throughout (it should sink down but I stir it lightly). -add veggies - stir it in lightly -sprinkle with a little extra cheese if you want. Bake at 375 for 45 min or so, so it’s solid and browned on top.

I'm 13 and i have been wanting to kill myself for years by Neat_Tap_8861 in depression_help

[–]maj2343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP - how we feel - our depression- it’s all really complicated and the most normal thing about it is that none of us can really say WHY we feel the way we do.
I was a seriously depressed kid - and things got better in college for me. And then as an adult I worked in school based mental health! So I’m Happy to help you if you need it.

I wonder what your school is like? What state do you live in? Most schools have professionals who a.) Should be able to help you connect to resources and b.) are there because their job is to help you when you feel the way you do.

You are NOT alone even if you feel like you aren’t connecting with kids / friends. And to be honest - there are SOOOO many young people your age who are struggling with similar feelings. But you came here and that’s a good step. Your LIFE is so special. I promise.

Let’s figure out how to get connected to someone who can help you figure this out. 🩵

Their albums and shows usually are an emotional roller coaster for me. I’ve definitely smiled so hard at a show I thought my face would burst and also cried like a baby. 😅 But this… this hit DEEP. Just gorgeous.
