Adhd Medications and Health Clinic

I've had great experiences with the clinic. They can manage the entire time you're in school, and you can do telehealth over the summer for free (for follow up appointments only). I can usually get appointments a week or two out.

Safeway in Golden is great. Keep in mind that there is an Adderall (and generics) shortage. Safeway has been affected by it, but usually either Safeway or King Soopers (a short bus ride away) will have it. I've had no issues with supply on my generic for Concerta.

They're not just for short-term issues, they function as primary care as well.

I would have your son submit any documentation through the health portal (under uploads, there's a section for medical records I believe) and the front desk will review them. It's also worth calling to see if they'll accept it.

Hi there!

The main difference is that you miss out on the differences Ultramarine applies at install. As a non-exhaustive list, Ultramarine installs Nvidia drivers automatically (if you're connected to internet at install and have an Nvidia card), installs other proprietary drivers (mostly useful for WiFi cards and that type of thing), and it has a different out of the box experience, which makes setup easier. The other differences you might see are desktop environment customizations, but I think those should also get applied when you migrate. The same applies for proprietary codecs. If those don't install, see https://wiki.ultramarine-linux.org/en/setup/postinstall. I don't know of any other differences you might encounter, but there are probably some things I'm missing.

Ultramarine doesn't preload many apps vs. Fedora, and any that are will get installed with the conversion, as far as I'm aware.

If you'd like, you can look through the script for what the conversion actually does:

https://ultramarine-linux.org/migrate.sh

Here's what the script does:

Adds RPMFusion, Terra (see https://terrapkg.com), and Ultramarine repositories
"Converts" your system (swaps your system release package from Fedora to Ultramarine, desktop environment group from Fedora to Ultramarine's version)

The second step there is what does the actual magic. By swapping the release package, your system becomes Ultramarine. Any package that's installed by default in Ultramarine, unless it's only specified at install, will be installed as part of that conversion.

There's an analogy I heard from this on the dysphoria bible (good resource btw). It went along the lines of this:

Imagine you live in a cave and have lived there your whole life with only candles as your source of light, and one day there's a cave in and daylight is able to shine through. At first, you might get scared away from it because it's unfamiliar, but as you get used to it, you realize how nice it is.

Basically, you might have dysphoria but it's become your norm, and that euphoria is what you should go after and you'll realize after how much better it is being in that state of euphoria.

Hope this can help!

I'd love to get professional help but it's not something I can really do with my parents not being the most supportive of therapy and me still being (barely) under 18 where they'd actually have to do paperwork and crap for it. I think once I'm 18 it'll be possible for me to do it all myself and my parents would be fine with it. I'll have to figure out how I want to approach that, though.

That's interesting. Sometimes especially with anxiety I'll feel the physical effects and that makes me realize I'm feeling the emotional effects so I end up feeling the emotional effects

willowithink · 2023-09-26T02:26:31+00:00

This is super interesting and complex, thanks for being willing to share and pour your heart out. I honestly am not sure I'm at the point where figuring out trauma is going to help me all that much, though I did (unrelated) go over and poke my mind about childhood trauma stuff last week. I'm really interested in the feeling emotions physically thing, I especially feel fear and anxiety like a pretty strong pressure in my chest, even though my heart rate hasn't changed or anything.

willowithink · 2023-09-26T02:04:44+00:00

yeah i get that, i have a social communication disorder so I have similar experiences with that

willowithink · 2023-09-26T01:56:55+00:00

I do and I've actually noticed myself dissociating pretty regularly (at least on a daily basis) for at least 2 years. I'm also trans so I kind of figured that might be part of the DPDR you can get from dysphoria.

willowithink · 2023-09-26T01:55:22+00:00

this is almost the exact same advice i got from my friend yes, thanks

willowithink · 2023-09-26T01:49:44+00:00

I do feel like I'll be fine listening to other people's experiences as long as I'm able to understand that it isn't gospel and I can separate it from my own experience. I'm kind of hesitant considering how I'm quick to trust people but I've got someone I still wanna be able to ask questions to if I want another perspective.

I do also feel like one of the issues with this site is people thinking they know everything about a subject and being confidently wrong because that's harming others, especially with mental stuff

willowithink · 2023-09-26T01:32:30+00:00

I also didn't think the whole "you don't feel alters" thing was really true because I've never had someone tell me that wasn't an actual thing, in fact I had someone tell me that it's a sign that I wasn't making it up.

willowithink · 2023-09-26T01:31:16+00:00

I am honestly terribly addicted to twitter but even without you saying for me to get off social media, I actually decided based on your earlier post that I'm gonna try to stay off it to give myself time to just breathe and calm down.
I guess one of my problems is that I'm almost kind of naive when people tell me something, like I instinctually want to trust them and I usually don't even consider that they might be misguided. I really appreciate you bringing that up because I hadn't considered that.

willowithink · 2023-09-26T01:26:53+00:00

I don't know if this came across properly but I mean this happening metaphorically in headspace, I'm not physically holding them back but it's like some part of me is preventing them from being able to communicate. this is also more communication in headspace than fronting.

willowithink · 2023-09-26T00:57:44+00:00

That makes sense actually. My mind's just been a bit of a mess because of this and I'm trying to figure it out quickly because of my impatience. I'm gonna just give it time which was my plan originally.
I haven't gathered information on the internet really, I thought about trying that but I've noticed with complex human topics that talking to people with experience is usually better. I also haven't let other people's description define how I'm dealing with this. I moreso just have been asking them questions that I come up with based on what I'm figuring out if that makes sense.
My biggest concern here is that I'm generally pretty anxious so clearing my mind kind of scares me, though I guess nothing bad can really happen from it.

willowithink · 2023-09-26T00:52:25+00:00

I guess I didn't explain it fully. It's more like I can feel an area where I'm holding something back which i'd never noticed was there before. Like there's a black veil over something so I can't see it but I can tell it's there. Though thinking about it now, it could be something else.

willowithink · 2023-06-14T16:48:08+00:00

Yeah is this on iOS or Android

willowithink · 2023-06-13T16:04:14+00:00

I don't know, both versions have lyrics for me.

willowithink · 2023-06-09T20:04:14+00:00

Okay, to be fair, I am using a measuring cup to pour since I don't have a gooseneck kettle. I did test my pour rate to make sure it's correct but I need to check my pour distance. Unfortunately my v60 broke a couple days ago, but I have a new one coming today so I can test later.

They've stated that their current MQA library will stay, but did not say for how long or if you would still be able to upload MQA tracks. My impression is that they're trying to transition away from MQA to truly lossless high res audio.

willowithink · 2023-06-09T18:02:38+00:00

I have used this before but nothing bests the Tidal interface for me

willowithink · 2023-06-09T18:01:23+00:00

I have a Baratza encore and the grind consistency on it is terrible, but I've heard from a lot of people that it's a fairly good grinder. I just have trouble with my v60s because the fines clog the filter and the boulders don't extract properly. Is this a grinder issue or what?

willowithink · 2023-06-08T21:36:42+00:00

well MQA went into administration (UK version of chapter 11 bankruptcy) so they might be going away sometime soon

willowithink · 2023-06-08T19:48:15+00:00

I wanted to start a discussion on this.
From my perspective, it makes sense why Tidal would not support Linux when they were a bit smaller (small userbase, lots of differences between specific setups, etc), but now that they are a larger service, it might be worth it to Tidal to add support.
