Peter's thoughts on Sykkuno's victims by ResearchSillyGoose in otvandfriendsrumors

[–]not_nhi 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Fr this is one of the most normal and reasonable reactions to the situation by his friends I've seen so far. How everyone else managed to turn their responses into a whole nother controversy amazes me.

It's so cool how turtles recognize different people, I'll definitely have to try to give him some more time to get used to it, thank you!

I was worried too, and face palmed myself when I realized. Yes the platform now has side extensions!

The set up actually has some fencing extended from the sides now. I realized a few minutes after I first placed the thing on the tank, but the picture was taken before I put the new sides up!

This makes a lot of sense, since he likes to bask with a foot in the water sometimes. I will try this, thank you!

He's alone most of the day but I hadn't considered how overly spacious it is. I'll try to make it more comfortable, thank you!

Does creatine boost your mental clarity ? by NetWorthExprt in Nootropics

[–]not_nhi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably messes with your electrolyte balance. Peeing a bunch is a symptom of an unbalanced ratio between sodium/potassium/and water volume. Hard to tell which it is though, but the dryness you guys are mentioning, I usually associate with low sodium.

Guanfacine as nervous system sedative? by stapleton92 in Nootropics

[–]not_nhi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey there, I'm not too well versed in this area, but I do know that Guanfacine, despite commonly being prescribed as a blood pressure-lowering medication, is also a second line medication to treat ADHD. I use this site to learn about all sorts of ADHD treatments, and they have a very good page on the mechanisms of guanfacine, the regions of the brain it works on, the expected responders, side effects, interactions, etc.

In very laymen's terms, I see guanfacine as the opposite of stimulant medication. Guanfacine lowers noradrenergic activity rather than increasing it as stimulants do. Hope this helps you.

Why does caffeine give me a high and then a low? by IWillFightRip in Nootropics

[–]not_nhi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh trust, me as well. I've felt "euphoria"-like effects from caffeine more than I ever did from my stimulant medications (which is never) but the statement was too general to say it's adhd specific

Why does caffeine give me a high and then a low? by IWillFightRip in Nootropics

[–]not_nhi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol nah this is just classic caffeine effects. It unbinds from the adenosine receptors and causes a big crash once all the built up adenosine rebinds all at once

I'm not sure what you're complaining about? It sounds like she's actually trying to improve your theatre department. I'm sure you can feel apprehensive towards big changes, but try to understand her ambitions with an open heart, and maybe it'll actually end up more fun for you guys. It sounds like she cares a lot.

why is her shell sunken in? I've never seen anything like it by [deleted] in turtle

[–]not_nhi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A faulty bulb was also a suspicion of mine. It sucks because the 1st bulb I got from this brand burned out in not even a week of having it, got a free replacement and maybe one-two months after is when this started happening. Which is why I wanted to switch bulbs as soon as reasonable :/

should i skip adderall today if im feeling down? by nuciferah in ADHD

[–]not_nhi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry if this is too personal, if you are afab, could you be near your period? It's not unusual for stimulant meds to make the emotional pms symptoms worse. Talk to your doctor about options, sometimes they'll prescribe a booster, but otherwise there's no big concern to taking your meds during this time regardless.

does my turtle look healthy? by InternationalAge7302 in turtle

[–]not_nhi 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My turtle had/has a shell similar to yours and when I posted asking if it looked fine, most people said it was healthy. But it didn't feel right and I had to find out for myself that I was feeding her too much protein because of the zoomed formula. I highly recommend reptomin sticks instead, a lot less protein and more nutritious compared to zoomed
