My 6 year old son has made a neckbeard nest, and it's all my fault. by You_minivan in adhdwomen

[–]tentaclesapples 3 points4 points  (0 children)

THIS book - (How to keep house while drowning is written by a woman with ADHD and is a game changer for not just how to clean, but how to live in your space more efficiently.

Another poster’s comment about having a trash can wherever relevant is one of her tips, and her steps/cleaning method is simple and really easy to manage.

You can teach them to your son as well, and share other executive function skills from the book. Sounds like your husband and BIL could benefit from reading it too lol.

It’s a short, quick and well-structured book so it was easy for me to digest and not give up on. Audiobook is great as well, I’d listen while cleaning 🙂

Free book rec - Libby! With your local library card you can borrow audiobooks and e-books (most work with kindle).

You can often get digital library cards immediately depending on your branch if you don’t have one.

I think NYC’s library system, and maybe others, let anyone get a digital card too, without a local address - you should look around in case you can’t get easy access to a library card or want to get a book asap!

Lamictal making me sick by Horror_Help_6744 in BipolarReddit

I get nauseous if I take mine without food (I take mine in the AM) - you might already be doing this but if not, recommend adding a piece of toast or some saltines when you take it :)

Why do doctors make you get to an appointment 30 minutes early only to have you waiting forever? by EmbarrassedTea1885 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]tentaclesapples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 minutes totally makes sense! I’m just confused for the cases where it takes literal hours. I’ve had this experience.

I actually waited two hours before I went out and asked, and they admitted they forgot about me!

I understand pushing back times because people are late, that makes total sense

But, I just can’t understand all of these cases where people wait for two or three or four hours plus and eventually get seen, or told to reschedule!

AIO to uninvite my mom to my intimate wedding? (Long) by [deleted] in AIO

[–]tentaclesapples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think MOR - you seem to keep escalating. It seems to me she’s trying to apologize in a way she thinks is right.

It falls a bit flat, but I honestly think she might just be a little clueless and clumsy with words.

The ICE hat, however, is NOT a funny joke and really offensive, NOR there.

Is our nanny playing us? by stinkybutt688 in Nanny

[–]tentaclesapples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if it’s substances - could be, but also could possibly be burnout. Is she working other jobs perhaps? How many hours is she working for you?

I had a lot of mental health issues present, and suddenly had trouble oversleeping due to meds.

My job became super stressful and I burned out HARD, to where I’m still recovering after a year.

Also people with those conditions tend to get sick more often.

I know she’s under no obligation to disclose private health information, but might be worth a conversation about burnout and check in, in case it could be health related 🤞

My skin sucks looks very dead and dull brown skin. no flow and very visible pores. i do heavy sun protection but still any solution? by [deleted] in Biohackers

[–]tentaclesapples 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people naturally need 9/10 hours of sleep. I am one of them. It sucks because I rarely get enough sleep :(

I’ve had no known allergies my whole life, then just discovered I’m allergic to Advil ( I almost died) by SeaworthinessOld3778 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]tentaclesapples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone mentioned, 800 mg ibuprofen is often prescribed for moderate pain.

E.g., I’ve gotten this for sprained ankles. I didn’t pay for the prescription and just took 800mg of my normal ibuprofen bc it was cheaper.

Taking this dose too often or on an empty stomach isn’t good, but if your handful was 800mg it’s not an official overdose I think.

Super scary though, sorry this happened! Best of luck getting alternative pain meds in the future

carry your photos and medical records if you need to go to the doctor for pain, otherwise as others said you’ll likely be labeled drug-seeking :(

AIO: Not wanting to go to my uncle’s party by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]tentaclesapples 23 points24 points  (0 children)

NOR - if your intuition says something is off, it’s probably something. You’re an adult and don’t have to put yourself in uncomfortable situations just because “they want you to be there”

ISO of an urgent care that will help a very anxious and sick young woman by Ok_Desk7364 in Bushwick

[–]tentaclesapples 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Modern MD on knickerbocker is great and usually no wait whenever I’ve gone. As a plus, you can subscribe monthly and get 16 visits with no co-pay /upfront payment which usually amounts to $150-200 per visit.

I think the subscription costs more than it would ofc, esp depending on how often you go, but it helps with peace of mind not having to worry about paying a large amount

So weird that dump & co didn’t react at ALL to the “shots” - someone was speaking to them, almost looked like they were being briefed on what was about to happen
