I rawdogged ADHD my entire life until I was diagnosed within the past year. I’ve been on atomoxetine, but its effectiveness for me isn’t worth a bucket of warm piss. I’m going to see my pysch in a little while and ask what my other treatment options are. So I may well become one of those using stimulant treatments.
Looks like the post is referring to a Medikinet product that could also be described as delayed release or modified release, instead of the word which was censored in the post. In case anyone else was confused like me.
Why work at a steady pace toward a quality product in a timely and low stress manner when you could instead be paralyzed by executive function until the last possible moment that you could still turn in a minimally acceptable product after working in a furious panic?
Reminds me of the plot line in early seasons of Mad Men where Betty would go to a shrink, then later that night Don would call the doc to see what all Betty said.
Cat 1’s inability to understand boundaries with cat 3. He (cat 1) gets along great with cat 2, and he thinks cat 3 is also his best friend, but cat 3? She hates him (he doesn’t respect her boundaries). And he tries to play with her in the middle of the night which means we get woken up by hissing and yelling and whatnot.
I love cat 1, don’t get me wrong. But he’s like a big dumb puppy in the shape of a cat.
Cat 1 - being picked up. Usually makes him very squirmy.
Cat 2 - being petted when she didn’t initiate affection.
Cat 3 - interacting with cat 1, she doesn’t like him, especially not in close proximity, which he hasn’t picked up on despite her hissing and smacking him regularly for the last seven years
The largest age gap I’ve been involved with was about 4 years. I was 31, she was 35, and we lasted about three months. Current partner and I are about 1.5 years apart.
If I were single and interested in dating, I think the lowest age I’d be willing to go is half my age plus 7. Someone at the absolute lowest end of that range would need to check a lot of other boxes for me to be willing. Most I’d be willing to go over my age is about 10 years.
But frankly, if I were single, I’d probably just stop the online dating thing and live my best life on my own, and if I met someone who was interested cool, and if not it ain’t the end of the world.
I think Maude Lebowski was a better painter
