There’s always a reason. Boredom, rumination or in my case last night, physical pain.

The way they went about getting their point across isn’t great but that said, there are legitimate reasons why you don’t see everyone leave for another country even if that is exactly what they want to do. Especially if you are someone that struggles to survive here let alone put away a few grand to cover the expenses of moving to another country, do the planning and research needed, tie up loose ends etc. Living abroad may be good for neurodiverse people but the actual process of leaving the US and settling elsewhere as a permanent resident is not.

It depends. When I first started taking the Straterra generic there were a few days that I had a much shorter fuse than normal but that went away. Mostly I noticed that it was much easier to focus and prioritize.

I was diagnosed at 32 in my last semester of my undergrad. I just ended up with more stress than I could handle and ended up in therapy and thats when I found out.

It does not help that most teachers don’t know how to make math relevant and interesting because at some level they don’t think it is either. And even if you actually do find math to be interesting, school more or less beats that out of you.

Why is it that whenever cursive comes up the main argument in its favor always boils down to avoiding reading or writing longer than absolutely necessary? I read as fast as I want to and I can type faster than anyone could possibly write legibly so I am not sure what the appeal is.

Now I kind of want to look at mine again. Mostly their main complaint was that I didn’t do my homework. I did well enough on tests to mostly compensate for that. My grades suffered but this wasn’t really seen as a big enough problem (read: I am inattentive not outwardly hyperactive) to do anything about. It was only in my final semester of undergrad that I was diagnosed after college broke me. “Congrats you now have accomodations! Shame your degree is basically already completed anyway.”

The older generations won’t admit it but their cursive isn’t as legible as they think it is.

Our dishwasher leaks and we dont have the money to fix or replace it. So its all manual washing dishes… when the last bowl, plate and utensil is gone.

In the morning I prefer a dark room because im still a zombie husk from waking up. Or if I have a headache. Late at night Id rather have a bright/well lit room. So it depends.

The extensions revamp that they did killed most of the really cool extensions. At that point, there was really no point in staying with Firefox.

I dont even want to think about how many partitions there are on my PC. windows has 4 or 5 just existing, then there’s root, home and swap plus 2 more for the 2 other drives. So… 9 or 10? its been a while since I had a reason to care.

As for what you should do, if you are replacing windows, it wont really matter what the format on the windows part is because youre going to need to back up the save data and reinstall those games eventually anyway. You cant really run the same game installs on both OSes.

There are good and bad things going on in the world and while it isnt all bad news, this doesnt strike me as being anything other than another form of bias. There are serious problems with this planet and pretending there arent doesnt make them go away.

There has to be something to leave for

Sleep deprivation prevents the body from being able to effectively repair itself. Thats why if you stay up long enough, you die. Sleep deprivation can exasperate ADHD symptoms. So even if you think it helps your anxiety, I would strongly advise you not to intentionally deprive yourself of sleep.

Strattera is a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor. It reduces the rate at which norepinephrine is reabsorbed so more of it stays in the synaptic cleft (gap) between neurons. ADHD is thought to involve deficiencies in dopamine, norepinephrine and potentially seratonin in the brain.

Drugs like strattera result in more norepinephrine which is involved in fight or flight, alertness, concentration and focus.

Adderal and other stimulants increase dopamine which is involved in motivation and reward

Drugs like buspirone (partial seratonin agonist) act on seratonin which is also involved in motivation and is better known for its role in depression. While buspirone (buspar) is normally used to treat anxiety, it is sometimes used to treat ADHD off label.
