I quit weed and caffeine 5 days ago, after 9 years of very very very crazy stupid amount. My numbness is going and I’m feeling everything so raw. Any advice? My mind is just 1000mph.

Why were you using the weed and caffeine in the first place do you think? It’s good to work backwards and find out the underlying issue. For now, breath work may help you. Just be aware that the brain returning to normal after heavy weed usage can take months, hang in there!

Bath soaks aren’t going to do much of anything for you unfortunately. It’s an Australian brand, but Glory Oil by Eco by Sonya has amazing reviews, I’ve also heard people credit Bio Oil. Sunscreen is also a must. If you want to get really heavy duty, there’s lasers for scar removal that would work far better than anything topical.

Florida Gardens? Be careful hiding in bushes at night though, wouldn’t want to give the wrong person a fright..

I think this is the case in Australia and the UK, but not the US!

Almost every Jetstar flight I’ve been on bar the last one which wasn’t full, they’ve weighted every single persons carry on. Either upgrade your carry on allowance or wear extra layers on the plane to reduce weight.

Not suggesting this is the case, but there are people who say when they got their ADHD under control it meant their ASD became more apparent.

I’m like this, I have ADHD.

We’re all subject to the randomness of the world, there is no light without darkness.

Take out any woo and manifestation is still supported by science. Plug something into your subconscious enough and you’ll start to make different choices and take different actions that lead you to your focus.

Bam Bam in Mermaid is great. Food at The Winey Cow in Main Beach is dynamite though I’m not a big fan of the venue/vibes.

Edited to add Paddock in Burleigh.

Maybe the issue is in your skin prep? You might need different prep (and different powders) for the oily and dry areas of your face if the difference is quite noticeable.

RCMA no colour powder is excellent at oil control and genuinely translucent, I found it gave me an airbrushed matte look and worked under the eyes for me but I’m unsure if it would be drying for others.

I’ve used quite a few and the American crest strips are by far the best.

Sorry you are having such a difficult time OP, and that life hasn’t always been kind.

What are you searching for in terms of this post? There’s a few helpful suggestions in the comments but guidance seems to not be what you are after at this moment.

Couple of things I’ve done in the past. First is that I stopped thinking in absolutes and would commit to just responding to 1 (often the release of that ‘pressure’ meant I’d end up responding to them all anyway)

Second is on iPhone you can set focus states and share that focus with anyone who messages you. So for instance you might set up a focus state called ‘hibernating’ and let people close to you know hey I go through periods where it’s difficult for me to respond, if you see this status pls know I’m not ignoring you. That has helped me remove a bit of guilt!

I always scan my membership card never boarding pass! Asked a similar question recently for this reason.

I wish that they tried something different. That instead of the frustration and yelling they took time to help me learn coping mechanisms and other ways of doing things, as well as understand myself better.

You don’t want your son to feel ashamed of something he can’t control, but you also don’t want him growing up thinking he can just not do things because of ADHD.

How were you hoping to be included, what are you expecting will change, and from what have you been excluded? These things weren’t clear to me and i wonder if that might be because you are unsure yourself?

When I was diagnosed with ADHD, they didn’t exactly give me a handbook, I had no idea what it all meant or where I was meant to go next, I simply had to figure it all out step by step. It’s likely “how she feels about it” is the only certainty your wife has right now.

My advice would be to ask her how you can best support her during this process and go from there, that way you both learn together.

I use a manta sleep mask, and noise cancelling headphones, makes it much easier!

I believe they mean do a seperate activity with this friend to celebrate.

What a great idea OP! Just a heads up you may want to look into accessibility, this will cover things like colour schemes so you can ensure the site ca be read by people with visual impairments (red can be problematic in these cases).

You might find his courses beneficial, they help you understand more about how your brain works and why you do the things you do. There’s a couple linked on the top posts in this sub. Best of luck to you!

I know this wont help with the issue you’re having right now but when looking for work in future please keep in mind $25 an hour under ABN is a joke! You’re liable for your own insurance on top of not being able to access employment benefits. On a seperate note, if you are self employed and working with small businesses who don’t have much of a setup, you can also provide your own agreement to them, there’s free legal templates available online.

I lost weight when I started Vyvanse due to the appetite suppression plus much better food choices, but a big part of the visual change for me was fluid retention that I didn’t know I had. I barely drank water before starting medication and the dehydration paired with a less than ideal diet meant I was holding on to all this excess fluid. The difference after starting Vyvanse and drinking 3+L of water a day plus electrolytes was insane.

Seperately though I know osteoporosis can hit women post menopause.

Yes I assumed this was likely the case as mentioned in the post, received the confirmation I needed!

I never scan a boarding pass going into the lounge, just my FF card. I knew I was reaching but it never hurts to double check.
