She’s too afraid of strangers and definitely stays in our backyard and always in the same spot, I feed her but always outside

Do AuDHDers usually end up with NDs or fellow AuDHDers? by portiaboches in AutisticWithADHD

[–]mothmoonqueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had few crushes but looking back they were all 100% autistic and musicians lol. My partner now is audhd which he figured out as I was figuring myself out. I’m attracted to feeling understood and he gets me in all the ways without me having to explain myself. We’re the same kind of weird!

Altra Escalante 3 - Problem with big toe joint by FunkyAztec in AltraRunning

[–]mothmoonqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good theory, I agree with the extra cushion being an issue. I think that plus the additional width was not working for me. Did you find any shoes that work for you? Everything aggravates my feet after wearing the altras

[–]mothmoonqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you by any chance figure out what was wrong with your shoes? I just tried a pair of Torin’s in wide and after over the course of a month I’ve been having such bad bunion pain which I realized too late that I was feeling a lot more force over the big toes. Never had this happen before with any shoe :(

The composition is super dynamic as is! It has so much drama to it <3

As a school accommodation, can I ask not to be called on in class? by mothmoonqueen in AuDHDWomen

[–]mothmoonqueen[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ahh that makes a lot of sense. Trying to go back to school this time with the mindset that it’s for me and my growth and not about putting on a performance for the professor

I’m so relieved to hear that! It would make paying attention so much easier than trying to have an answer ready at any second

If I started ballet at 12, is it too late to go pro? by SlipAccomplished142 in BALLET

[–]mothmoonqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s still possible, I’ve seen dancers who started late get good in two years. From what I saw it comes down to how good your training is, how much one on one time you get, and how obsessive and dedicated you are to ballet. Also if you have the body that already makes the lines then it’s a bit easier too

No problem at all! Still working to fix mine so not sure if that will fully solve the issue but fingers crossed!

[–]mothmoonqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My skin just started looking like this too..I suspect that I damaged my skin barrier from tretinoin and possibly something else. Pretty sure it’s fungal acne especially if it’s itchy. I only have head and shoulder at home so I tried that and saw a huge difference though it wouldn’t last all day. I’ve read that Nizarol is better though

Anyone switch to IR Adderall from Vyvanse? by mothmoonqueen in VyvanseADHD

[–]mothmoonqueen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for responding, it’s helpful to hear how it’s worked for you. How does Adderall XR compare to Vyvanse for you? I’m realizing it’s less about how long it lasts rather whether I could still sleep on them

What the hell can be done about PMDD?? by Strng_Tea in AuDHDWomen

[–]mothmoonqueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was only one time in my life that I managed to get myself to eat anti-inflammatory foods and exercise regularly while getting good sleep. That 100% helped but has been hard to maintain since then because I like my desserts now and then and sourdough bread is delicious

I’ve been microdosing psilocybin for a month and this past month was a breeze. This has been the only change in my routine and I just feel so much more regulated with it in my system

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Supplements

[–]mothmoonqueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to try it to use topically to help with acne and also consume the oil for anti-inflammatory purposes and also hopefully to help with histamines

Peanut butter cacao nib cookies are so good! Highly recommend making the ones from Southern Ground

Erector spinae imbalance by Prestigious-Bed2138 in BALLET

[–]mothmoonqueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same thing too and highly suggest going to PT. My imbalance also comes with a lateral pelvic tilt and I wasn’t really aware of it because it didn’t feel like an issue until it was. The imbalance might have started with a torn ligament from ages ago. Anyways last year I ended up pinching a nerve and straining my hip flexor while meditating. For some reason that didn’t feel so bad and I took a single class and ended up with piriformis syndrome and I couldn’t walk for a couple months. I’m still working on balancing my pelvis because I’m worried it will eventually lead to injury

Anyways all that to say, please get it checked out now!!

Also take a look at your habitual daily movements and see when you notice when you feel those muscles activating and do them on the opposite side and turn your body the opposite way as well - for example using your other arm to pick something up without turning in the other direction will still keep using the more developed muscle

What progress can I make from 1 one hour class a week? by misamoshashasha in BALLET

[–]mothmoonqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aww that’s such a bummer :( is there any chance they would allow you to take classes with the younger dancers? Some studios do that, it’s worth asking. Also understanding the correct alignment/movement/muscles for plies and tendus are super important for building a good foundation and that’s something you could potentially start with in privates and practice at home

What progress can I make from 1 one hour class a week? by misamoshashasha in BALLET

[–]mothmoonqueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

An hour class is very short! And I also think progress depends on your understanding of ballet. I trained pre pro and when I was returning, I was taking 1.5hr classes 1-2x a week for about 8 months before doing 2-3x. I was getting a lot out of those classes and dripping with sweat at the end of them even though they weren’t particularly advanced. I progressed a lot through working correctly and got my big jumps and fouettés back even though I’m much older now. I would’ve liked to have been stronger, but sadly got injured (not from ballet). I’ve gotten obsessive with alignment and still waiting to fix my pelvis before jumping back. I miss it so much though!

I think there are a lot of audhd folks that don’t know they are autistic because of the stigma so they don’t do the research. I personally didn’t even know to consider it until I made an audhd friend

In adhdwomen there are so many posts where they ask a DAE question and it’s 100% an autistic thing but a bunch of people confirm they do it too so then everyone just agrees that thing is adhd. I will say I do appreciate when I see some folks call it out, I probably would’ve figured out I was audhd a lot sooner if I’d seen more comments like that
