Is it possible to say "no" to a request, especially an urgent request, because you need to sleep? Sleep is like the #1 thing that keeps me from being suicidal but I feel like I can't say that...

Just here to say I’m so thankful we have this safe space. People who aren’t diagnosed generally have misconceptions about ADHD and its symptoms, and I’m so grateful we have this bowl to seek help, learn from one another, and sometimes just vent! With all the negativity in the world, this bowl is that one ray of sunshine I so desperately need, so thank you everyone for what you have done and what you’ll continue to do!

What do you do to automate you lifestyle/remove decision fatigue to reach your health and fitness goals?

I’ve found that making healthy habits a part of my lifestyle and routines makes them easier to stick to and would love any additional ideas!

I recently got diagnosed with ADHD. I'm 31 and found this only because b school and post mba consulting job was/is much more challenging than anything I did before. What I'm confused about is that even as a teenager I could read entire books overnight. But the last two years of high school I started selectively zoning out and the problem has become worse since. I just realised it now. My doctor has suggested treating depression (I was also unaware of this) with Wellbutrin first (contd)

Just marked 5 years sober. Healthy. Happy again. No hangovers. Weight loss. Got off meds and high blood pressure to 110/70. Each year is easier and now I just have no desire to drink.

Any other sober folks in the sales world who can give me some advice? Really struggling to keep up with the office culture when happy hour is impossible for me. 1.5 years sober and want to stay that way.

I have been married for 3 years. We have been trying to have a baby and found out my husband is shooting blanks and requires surgery to possibly resolve that. Recovery is 4 weeks and he refused. He is also not open to adopting or fostering or using someone else’s sperm. What do I do now?

Salam, Ramadan Mubarak! Anyone trying to maintain some level of strength training during Ramadan? I know it’s ideal to lift after iftar (maybe after dates/water + magrib and before dinner) but wonder if it is doable to squeeze in a 30-40 min training session right before iftar (for time saving purposes)?

Why are some people willing to do anything / obsessed about getting the green card in the U.S.?

When I asked them, they usually say they like American lifestyle. I love lifestyle in France, but I was in France, I was OK if I can't stay. Just trying to understand here so that I can have more empathy.

Has anyone else healed yourself with music?
A few years ago I slipped a disk in my lower back. Some doctors said I needed surgery to fuse it. That didn't sound good so I looked up alternatives. Through listening to binaural beats, using a tuning fork set to 528hz, and yoga I am now able to move and function just fine.
What's your experience?

OH: (RE: required meeting attendance)

"Ok, fine. I will say yes now but fair warning I may fake my own death beforehand."

Is there any good reason to take a 10+ minute call in a bathroom stall at work? Noticing people doing this as RTO ramps up and I really don’t understand why you wouldn’t go outside or at least in your car.

I was recently promoted, and now part of my team report to me. I'm now able to see their pay rates and I am honestly so disappointed in the company. Especially since we just gave annual raises in Feb, plus we can all see where the money is going and it's not to the employees. Makes me sick
