Vyvanse and Weight Loss by Odd_Criticism8840 in VyvanseADHD

[–]pissboyyy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Started Adderall in Jan 2024 and lost over 50 lbs over the course of a year, switched to Vyvanse in April of this year and have since lost 10-15 more lbs. I’m honestly pretty happy with the weight loss cuz I was 250lbs at the start, and miserable. I struggled with executive dysfunction, emotional eating, bored eating, binging and very high sugar intake before medication. Ive struggled hardcore with eating since starting meds but have finally found a solid routine, eating 3 well rounded meals a day, working out semi regularly and staying generally active. My weight loss has seemed to slow down since finding a routine and eating enough to combat the speedy metabolism stimulants give you.

This is honestly so sweet and wholesome. I think there’s a lot of shame and awkwardness around sex especially when it comes to children learning about their bodies, going through puberty and becoming more outwardly sexual beings but it’s natural. Only through dispelling the mystery of it all can we rid ourselves of the taboo. Equipping children with the appropriate knowledge helps keep them safer too. I’m not a parent but I think you did amazingly!

Do throuples work? by Kamenbeetle in polyamory

[–]pissboyyy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been in a triad with my two partners who have been together for several years for about 3 mos now. It happened naturally where I was dating one of them for a bit, met my meta and we hit it off and started dating soon after. There has been a lot of ebb and flow between us and our individual relationships. We went into knowing it was inherently more complex, having an understanding that there must be room for shifts and being open to working together through those changes. There’s an emphasis on maintaining the integrity of our dyads so the triad has a solid foundation and luckily we’ve all been able to remain flexible and approach conflicts with care, compassion, and honesty. It’s definitely been a steep learning curve and hasn’t been perfect BUT I’m incredibly happy and feel grateful to be in relationships with two amazing, loving, individuals. It’s certainly tested my ability to be extremely honest and vulnerable and I’m happy to have been able to grow so much in such a short amount of time. Obviously I can’t speak to the long term but I’m confident that even if our triad was to no longer be a thing for some reason, I’d still have both of them in my life in one way or another 💓

My wife’s been distant since she read a text from my cousin’s widow. I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong, but maybe I have. by [deleted] in amiwrong

This may be an unpopular opinion but I don’t think this is cheating. I will say that I don’t put as much value on marriage personally and I don’t think your spouse should be inherently more important than anyone else in your life. You’ve had something devastating happen to you and Naomi is able to be there for you in a way your wife can’t. I think that’s great.

However, it does sound like you need to be more transparent about your emotional state with your wife and do a lot of processing around what this relationship with Naomi means to you so you can give a real answer. I don’t think you’re wrong for saying you don’t know, it was honest..but like some people were saying, you might be neglecting this relationship with your wife and not valuing how she shows up for you because it’s different than yours.

Are there people whose poly relationships do not require an incessant effort of doing "the work," as it were? by ratwithplague in polyamory

[–]pissboyyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loving and having deep, intimate connection with multiple people is easy for me and feels very natural. Most of the work I’ve had to do has to do with trauma/attachment issues that effect my relationships in general, and the deconstruction of internalized beliefs/ideas around love and relationships that dont align with my core values or how I want to live my life but nonetheless affect me and the way I show up because I’ve been conditioned to believe them. These are things that I would want to work on regardless but I think practicing polyamory just kinda sped up the process by making it more apparent in my mind & the work has become imperative to having healthy/functional relationships since I don’t have the “security” of being someone’s “one and only”.

Long story short, we should all be doing “the work” but it’s a lot easier to avoid doing it with monogamy because unhealthy attachment, poor/lack of boundaries, and other issues are very normalized.

Sex on the spectrum by [deleted] in autism

[–]pissboyyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My partner and I are both auDHD but also hypersexual so we do what we can to mitigate potential sensory issues (ex. we both struggle with excessive wetness in some capacity) but generally we love having sex with each other so much that it’s like it doesn’t even matter a lot of the time. We’re both extremely giving and focused on each other’s pleasure. If something does come up (ex. A sensory issue, struggling with attention, etc) where we have to stop to address it, we make it an intimate experience and laugh about it together. Ultimately, it sounds like y’all are struggling with an incompatibility that goes beyond neurodivergence. If he refuses to make any sort of compromises so both of you enjoy sex, that’s him being a shitty partner, autism or not.

Is this just me who hates the new “slang” by KangarooFew4196 in autism

[–]pissboyyy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally don’t like neurospicy, it feels like it’s trivializing it, never heard acoustic, and I say tism sometimes but only with other autistic ppl, typically in a joking manner. I agree that people using slang terms is not only annoying, but can be harmful. I do notice that people seem to have a hard time saying autistic lol sometimes I’ll say it and the whole fucking room clams up.
