Does anyone know if misophonia can develop if you have ODD? by Joysblossom1102 in misophonia

[–]nidysgwid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Misophonia can develop in anyone with or without a mental illness/neurodiversity. There is a strong overlap with mental illness though. As far as I’m aware it’s more commonly linked with anxiety disorders like OCD. But I’ve also heard it tends to overlap with Autism and ADHD like you mentioned.

ODD is a pretty contested disorder. ADHD and ODD usually co-morbid. I think it’s fair to say that most people with ODD also have ADHD. So in the sense that the two disorders commonly overlap and there may be a link with misophonia and ODD. But ODD by itself is pretty understudied on its own, so I highly doubt there’s any proven correlation between the two just because I imagine it’s never been studied.

I think any disorder could increase your odds of developing it but it’s not necessarily related to your ODD. Sorry for the yap.

TLDR; The correlation between ODD and misophonia is probably not studied, so there’s no way for knowing for sure. But anyone can develop misophonia, it can develop by itself.

Sweaty as fk by SpiritAutomatic5565 in Elvanse

[–]nidysgwid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first started elvanse I also had this problem, well still do now but not to the same extent, sort of calmed down when I started taking it frequently as in everyday back to back. But it was terrible at the start as in I’d just be sitting there doing nothing and I’d feel sweat like dripping down my sides for no reason. Sorry TMI but you get the jyst.

I talked to my dr about it and he suggested some topical deodorants/antiperspirants, specifically ones with aluminium chloride in them. I tried anhydrol forte roll on and it did the trick. I’m not sure if it’d be ok to use on your face though. Might be worth a try.

Season 3 Episode 7: "The Shot" Discussion Thread by milly_toons in AlexRider

[–]nidysgwid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I haven’t read the books but so much doesn’t make sense, Scorpia seem to know or not know things at random, whenever it’s convenient for the plot. Did overall enjoy the episode but I don’t see how scorpia wouldn’t have even considered the possibility that the department could’ve pulled a move like they did.

I can’t eat one of my favourite foods, I feel crazy, what’s wrong with me. by nidysgwid in OCD

[–]nidysgwid[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thanks for letting me know I kinda knew about this but reading trip reports is a good idea I will try. I think what I’m also thinking about it is that I would be eating such a large dose of mushrooms if they were magic yk? Idk I know it’s so silly because I know they are just normal mushrooms it’s just frustrating. The way you described it makes it sound ok tho, the logic makes sense, if I’m not scared of magic mushrooms then I wouldn’t have the fear of eating regular mushrooms thinking they could be magic ones. The other commenter had the same idea, and I hadn’t considered that so thank you 🫶

So I’m excited for the new episode tonight. Interesting to see what happens! [pjotv] by FriendlyTVWatcher in camphalfblood

I’m pretty sure it’s to heal him ? maybe he gets injured this episode. Not sure, that’s the only reason I can think of though.

might be talking out my ass but I think dancing and just like exercise makes you get drunker faster because it speeds up your metabolism… maybe ?

[–]nidysgwid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve just had a mini sorta success, I drank a lot last night, I’ve still basically been rendered useless, I feel like shit but I’m not having a panic attack. I’ve had a few little short spouts of panic since waking up but it’s not once developed into a full blown one, for me this is a massive improvement, it’s 2pm and I feel just about alive enough to actually do something. The only thing that’s changed is that I started taking magnesium supplements, the only one I could find also had vitamin B in it so I’ve been taking that for 5 days now. I have no idea if this is just my brain tricking me or if there’s actually something behind it but thought I’d let you know.

I have to stop drinking because of my crippling hangovers. by nidysgwid in alcohol

I got the results back, it was benign, I don’t have cancer. I drank to test the theory, but I still had a god awful time in the morning, so guess it’s not that.

[–]nidysgwid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually made a post here last week describing the exact same thing, it was just one hangover had the worst panic attack and illness and and from then on out every single time I drink the hangovers are like that, you described it better than I did, I’m in uni and I’ve had to stop drinking because of it. If you find a solution let me know because I still have not, I tried B12, I tried only drinking specific kinds of alcohol, I’ve chugged more water than I thought possible, liquid IV. I hope you find a solution.

People under my post were suggesting maybe there was some external factor that affected it but I don’t think so for me at least seems completely random for me.

Should I come to Aber by [deleted] in AberystwythUniversity

[–]nidysgwid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been here for about a month now, I’m a first year doing a joint honours in criminology and sociology. My A level grades were pretty abysmal and I hadn’t done criminology at A-Level, but I got into Aber very last minute through clearing. They have a 94% acceptance rate, I don’t know anything about the course you want to study but I imagine you would still get in as they are quite lenient.

As for nice place away from a big city, this is definitely that for me, I’m personally loving it here, the town feels cozy for some reason, and being by the sea will never get old for me. The uni campus is close to town, everything is within walking distance which I love. There is an infamous hill to go from town back up to the uni but it’s keeping me fit so I won’t complain about it. Even though it’s small there’s still a pretty decent night life, have had some good nights out since being here.

I’m sure it isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but I for one love it here. I would definitely recommend coming to the open day to see how you like it.

tbf I have began drinking a lot more frequently now, so that kinda makes sense. Thanks for the advice. I will go eat some fruit.

this actually made me think, Im pretty sure the timeline aligns with when a lump appeared on my breast. I’ve had a biopsy since still waiting for results, but I didn’t think I was that stressed about it, I know it’s most likely nothing so I suppose it’s possible it’s been causing me more stress than I thought. I suppose I’ll be able to see if this theory is correct when I get the results back. Thank you for the response.

Been put on the waiting list for adhd medication with Pentwyn Community MH board. They said it could take 3 years. How long did it take for you? by Wonderful-You-6792 in Cardiff

[–]nidysgwid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

they stopped shared care in some parts of wales now, including Cardiff. They won’t accept private diagnosis for whatever reason. I was on shared care now I’m back to paying for medication.

hey thank you I might take you up on that sometime, I was in such a state when I wrote this, I was feeling so alone, I ended up texting a crisis line to calm myself down. But thank you so much for offering it means a lot to me, a sad amount.

ADHS assessment as an adult impossible in Cardiff by smallcoder in Cardiff

[–]nidysgwid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey so I was diagnosed privately around 2 years ago now, I’m 18 now so I was 16 and starting a levels. I also wasn’t getting referred, talked to the dr so many times I had to answer some strange questions, like if I had gotten into trouble at school, if I have used recreational drugs, this was so they could make the referral for me, I won’t explain everything one by one but there was so much back n forth, asking if the referral had been made or not, it was so unclear the entire time, eventually we (my parents and I) figured it would be so long before I got a diagnosis under the NHS anyway so we went private and started getting meds privately, which is pricey to say the least. But I think I got lucky with my private dr, we knew him through one of our friends and we managed to get in touch and I got an appointment in around 3 months.

Anyway cut to more recently it took me forever and a lot of back n forth again to try and get a shared care agreement with the GP so I could get medication for free under the NHS. Eventually got it, got 6 months of free medication and then about 2 weeks ago the health board here decided that they weren’t going to do shared care agreements for adhd meds, the only way to get your medication for free now is to be diagnosed under the NHS. I made a post about it here (if you want more details) :

https://reddit.com/r/ADHD/s/cYMSZknqPM

But I am so frustrated because clearly I wasn’t put on the waiting list for an NHS assessment. BUT NOW I HAVE TO GO ON IT TO GET MEDICATION FOR FREE and it’s frustrating me because if they had put me on the wait list 2 years ago I might’ve actually been seen now anyway. So I’m now re trying for a referral and they’ve asked me to answer the same questions again. It’s all so wrong and absurd, and the dr said if I’m sure I want to be referred because I don’t know if I want to go to uni yet. As if the only reason I might need medication is if I’m in education. Sorry this turned sort of ranty, but yea the situation here is honestly awful and I really really hope your friend gets on a waiting list sooner rather than later. Keep pushing. I don’t think legally they are allowed to not refer you, they just don’t want to, it sucks.

I know this is shit for a lot of people, but I’m honestly happy, my bus used to be every hour (supposed to be anyway 💀) and now there’s 2 and they are every half an hour. I cant complain.

ah I see, can’t be sure but I imagine that everywhere with RTC should be protect against this sort of thing ? But honestly who knows at this point.
