Hey need some advice. I got diagnosed bipolar and can’t take stimulants. The diagnosis is being challenged and I got a second opinion it’s ADHD. Makes sense, all my family has it. Doctor won’t give me stimulants that work better. What do i do? Seeing other doctors is a 6 month long wait.

I really dont like drinking and don't understand why everyone is so obssesed with it. Like you really jeed to numb yourself all the time? Unpolular opinion but Alcohol sucks

Just me or do people who have not had Covid not understand the the seriousness of the long term fatigue one is left with.

Can anyone recommend some good resources (books maybe?) for learning about intermittent fasting? Seems to be a lot of contradictory crap online.

Been feeling pretty great the last few days. Was able to reflect a bit and this Summer/Fall up until about a week ago were some of lowest points I’ve felt in my life. I’m glad I’m doing better now but looking for ways to better manage my emotions. I don’t want to have these extreme highs/lows. Any advice?

Is Planet Fitness a good gym…only attracted due to its low price?

I had *just* gotten back into running (2 weeks) when I found out I’m pregnant! Great news, but would you keep running? Doctor says it’s up to me.

Moved from Lakeview to Gold Coast because I thought it was of the nicest areas towards downtown. In the past week, crime has been through the absolute roof. Watched theft from deranged man at Walgreens tonight. What gives?

Starting to get anxiety walking to grocery store (Jewl @ Clark / Division), find myself so jumpy when I leave apartment now, worried about my stress continuing to get worse. Suggestions?

I accepted an offer from a company based in SF couple of weeks ago for a 70% raise from my current pay (TC). Currently in East Coast. Base pay increase was only 10% and rest is all in RSU’s. I can’t stop thinking if am making the right move.

Currently in Big 4, I like my current job & I learn a lot day to day. But very clearly underpaid.

Also, Pandemic has put a lot of strain on my mental health. My productivity is all time low, can’t focus and concentrate. (Cont..)

If I had covid and I still have the antibodies 15 months later (i’ve been getting the antibody test done out of curiosity) what’s the point of getting vaccinated? My double vaxxed friends are still getting covid

Anyone willing to refer me to Equinox? Also how's the gym in Anthem Row specifically?

Tomorrow they are requiring masks again and I was almost in tears when I found out. We have been mask free (recommended) since June and I feel like we are being muzzled again. I am vaccinated, frustrated, and have been off of antidepressants since March. I don’t even want to go into work tomorrow. Anything is better than being virtual and I am trying to look at the bright side, but moving backward still burns. We have parent-teacher conferences coming up and I am hoping that it’s temporary.

Any idea why can’t eat beyond 1500 calories? My tdee is around 2 k ( 5’8”” and 160 lbs, at roughly 14-15% body fat) . 3 months back I lost weight 176 to 160. Since then that I am regularly lifting..

Given that Fauci recently said that he expects the majority of Americans to be vaccinated by June, can we assume that fall 2021 will likely be mostly in person?

Thoughts on how to structure a 70-minute sixth grade ELA block?

Not that this’ll be relevant for a little while, but… how is the culture at the Boston office?
Coming over from Accenture, where the Boston office is considered pretty fun, young culture, chatty, etc.

You ever get so tired you’re unable to fall asleep? Loads of smart people here so could someone explain it to me please?

Buying vs. renting...?

Working in real estate industry can consume all your time. Hot sheet, role play, prospecting, meeting demanding deadlines... is work/life balance a possibility?

Anyone else's district distance learning? How are you feeling about it?

Would you rather be a PM at FAANG or generalist at MBB? And why?

I recently started my first post-college job as a software developer and have to make a decision pretty soon: front-end development or back-end development. I really like being closer to the user and the creativity as far as front-end. But I also reallly really enjoy math and logic and the more complex side to back-end. My dream would be to do full stack but thats not an option. Scared of getting pigeon holed. Any suggestions as to what to do / tips?

Interested in endeavoring into the legal field through a paralegal role. Currently work at Big Four. Anyone willing to give a referral to Kirkland & Ellis?

Did anyone else hear these phrases constantly growing up? “You’re smart but lazy”. “Your problem is you get bored too easily."

Prescribed wellbutrin but have serious side effects. Was hoping this would be the magic pill. So bummed and ready to give up.

Any other males get really sensitive nipples (especially the left) when the adderall wears off? 😂 I wish I were joking, but it genuinely is irritating enough that I have to not wear a shirt / take week-long+ breaks once it reaches a certain point.

Wow! This bowl exists. I am so happy.

Day 5 of Wellbutrin for ADHD. Already seem to wake up easier and been able to focus a bit more. Really hope to keep seeing improvement and this isn’t a placebo affect so far!

Does anyone live in Europe? I’m about to move to France for grad school and I just learnt that Vyvanse (and adderall, Ritalin etc) aren’t available in France and I’m worried about how I’ll get it 🥺

My stomach was having issues so I quit coffee. There’s an adderall shortage so I can’t get any. was doing okay for. Week . But now I’m going insane. Feel foggy brained. Depressed. Slow. Ashamed of every lil mistake.

Hello to anyone who joins!

I'm pretty proud of the progress I've made when it comes to staying on task in my work life. What I'm having bigger issues with is transitioning from one thing to another. Ex..I'll go to pour a glass of water after finishing something, realize the trash needs to be taken out, realize I need to walk down to pick up my mail, etc. Any tips on making this easier?

I’m so grateful for my late term diagnosis 18 months ago and my medication because i function like a human now. But it also makes me feel a bit sad that my brain is “broken” and even needs medication.

People that are not neuro-divergent are really just waking up everyday and living their lives with this level of clarity and stamina by breathing air.

Sigh.

Interviewing for a job…when my medication kicks in, it seems like a great role and pivot for my career.

When my meds wear off, I’m not too sure and think it might not be a good fit.

Which version of “me” is right?

Was just diagnosed with ADHD (always struggled with symptoms but I never actually when to a therapist to get assessed till now). What are the “next steps”?

Took 10mg Adderall xr at 1230 today and fall asleep at 5pm. Is this normal?

Has anyone used the Done. ADHD service? I’ve been thinking about using it since my psychiatrist is never available and ADHD clinics around me seem so expensive.
