2024.05.19 18:42 wondering_why9 Adderall and missing my period?

I've (32F) been on Adderall XR for the past few months, and basically since March I've noticed that my period has been irregular (it was a week late that month, then a few days early in April). I didn't think too much about it and thought that it was just a one-off incident. However, this month, it's two weeks late (just took a pregnancy test which was negative; my partner and I are very responsible about protection and use condoms and have had no concerns). I've basically resigned myself to not getting it. I'm almost never late--literally am almost exactly on time every month for years--and I haven't experienced any significant increase in stress in the past few months. I'm getting really nervous that Adderall could be messing with my periods, which worries me because it feels like my body is reacting in a negative way to the medication by not menstruating. There is almost no information about this online, and it's really frustrating to try to determine what could be causing my missing period. Has anyone else experienced this? Did it resolve in time, or did you have to change the medication?
Adderall has really helped me, and honestly, I struggle to take breaks from it, though I am feeling like I probably should to find out whether my menstrual cycle will regulate again. I wish I did not have to choose between the medication and my bodily functioning. It's very frustrating.

2024.05.19 18:20 HealthyElk420 Seeking opinions on chairs from the sffpc community? Is paying a premium ever worth it?

In the last 10 years I've had the Aeron chair provided from 2016-2018 in an office. I found it to be satisfactory but hated the lack of headrest.
I went remote in 2018 and bought an ergochair 2 from autonomous.ai
Perhaps I'm too small for it and sit in it wrong, but I find my wife's $15 university surplus office chair to be far more comfortable and it doesn't even lean back. I hate the arm rests on the ergo chair and the lumbar support doesn't do anything for me.
I recently moved and let go of the ergo chair 2 for $150 on Craigslist with my failed sit/stand desk experiment that I salvaged $250 on.
I'm going back to a traditional executive desk with proper drawers and I'm now turning to the chair. As I see prices, my gut is telling me to just sit in the basic chair Costco has and if it seems acceptable to buy it and move on.
FWIW, I would never buy something that looks like a gaming chair, I take a lot of video calls. My Dan A4H2O build is silent and entirely black.
Is there a $300-700 chair that's actually worth it for a 5'8/150lb fit human that sits in a chair for 4-7 hours each day?

2024.05.19 16:43 snarlyj My failures, my roadblocks, my introduction, my hopes

This is not the witch I wish to be. Tempted early in that day with that "amphetamine paste". Figuring it would be no different from Adderall, which I'd taken for many years. But it was stronger, darker, with consequences. Should have tested my drugs. But I've Always been flighty and impulsive. Part of the reason for the Adderall in the past. A good day turned into a rough evening. The comedown perhaps? Or the consequences of doing too much in a short time span. Never had a reaction like this before. Should have tested my drugs. Wretched painful vomiting of every thing id eaten and drunk that day. Sour burning stomach. Deep hunger but which could not be satiated without more vomiting. I am a mess, In pain . This was not the witch I wish to be.
Bees crammed in my skull. A racket and a pressure and a pain. But it is late now. I curl up by my dog and take my CPTSD nightly meds and I pile myself in blankets.
Wake up two hours later. A dark and liminal night. The bees have departed and taken their pain with them, though a sharp ringing persists through my skull. Loud but not painful. My stomach still rolls.
I need to empty my bladder. I stand up and begin the careful walk. I wake up on the floor between the couch and kitchen. A sore spot on the back of my head. But not too sore. I must have caught myself as I was fainting, or crumpled rather than fallen. It's now light. Dawn and liminal. i aim for that bathroom again and this time am successful. I deliberate where to sleep. A bed is probably best.
I fiddle with a thin sliver of skin torn from thumb. Pull it up off out. No blood flows. This is not for a ward or an offering or a binding. This is just a scratch. Not the witch I wish to be.
I cannot remember which medications I've taken though I do need more sleep. Risk taking excess or wait to see if I slumber? I am no witch. I am an addict with a burning desire to find a purpose that pulls me away from these mistakes and dependencies.
I am a woman shattered repeatedly by the men she loved and now sure there will be no more men. A woman who feels things too strongly. A woman who has buried her traumas over and over. Until Monday. The first day of therapy in ten years. Monday we begin again the process of excavating the embers that burn with anxiety and shame and regret and the back of my throat. That stop me from taking a full breath for fear a bringing a flame to light and choking me in its smoke. Not sure I have skeletons in my closet, but I've got kindling in my esophagus.
So we will dig it up. Pull up the pieces and examine them. Then eat dirt and worms and fallen leaves til I have a healthy bed. And then I will fill my chest and stomach with flowers and magic and light. And I will be I've step closer to being the witch I want to be.
I'm coming to join you. My path is unstable. It may be I that is unstable. But I do understand life, what it's supposed to taste like. Who and what is dulling it and attempting to deny it to those of us that recognize it's power.
And so I suppose I announce my arrival. Or my pilgrimage. I stand at your entryway I declare who I will come to be. I hope this is the place for me. At the least it will be a place of resting and learning for a woman whose feet and back and soul need rest and rejuvenation.
My name comes from Gwenhwyfar, the white witch. But you can call me Jennie. I seek your embrace.

2024.05.19 12:17 Key-Review5550 Adderall

I’ve already posted one post. No damn judgement. I need to find Adderall and at this point as sad as it is I need to find it illegally. And before you judge the life I’ve been thru is one that people watch movies over and cry that if you heard it you thought it was fiction. People like me need help a lot don’t get it and become addicts I healed I got help I got diagnosed and have been diagnosed since 10 been taking 7 fucking medications my entire life. So tell me how the mental health system is coming into to fail me now. I need it I’m not someone who takes the shit for fun trust me I wish I could just take it for a high but I don’t I live daily taking my meds just to live life normally. So just because there’s people out here that choose to get high on things (which is okay I never am the shitty person that judges cuz I’ve been there it gets low and sometimes when you go thru enough shit numbing it is the only way out some people can never find the help to heal) crazy thing is I made it my life mission to heal so right now I have to be anonymous I help so man damn people heal from there trauma and I have children I need to somehow buy adderall I’ve been thru every avenue. But it’s been two weeks of trying anything legally just to get a prescription I’ve been on since 17 years! And have been denied wow just wow way to go Americas health system your failing another damn person. Problem is I can’t even function properly without it I’ve tried. You never need something to live with a Karen will say well yea Karen come back to me when you have a chemical imbalance and lash out at damn near anything when it gets to a certain point you completely lose yourself as a person when you’ve worked so damn hard to find yourself and even try to help others. I don’t care how when or where someone please freaking help me here for the love of god I screamed and yelled at my children a 1 and 3 years old. I’ve worked so damn hard to break the cycle to love and cherish my kids to actually give them a real loving mother that would always be here I discipline them yes but yelling and spanking just isn’t what I do. I’ve completely done a 180 and for the past week I’ve never seen my kids look at me the way they’ve been. So never thought I’d come here illegally idc the government doesn’t care about me well now I don’t give a damn just someone fucking help me. I’ve found these online pharmacies and some people say they are legit and some say they aren’t all I need is any kind of 30mg stimulant at this point and I have to dish out 300 just for 30 so shit man I don’t have the most money and not trying to dish out money for getting screwed over so some for the love of god please point me in the right direction. Btw I’m in Maryland/princess Anne. They cut off most adult on adhd medication due to abuse of it and investigating who actually needs it but it’s now been 2 weeks with no answer so here I am begging for anything. And watch nothing happen that’s the worse part.

2024.05.19 08:56 thesauciest-tea How Do You Market Your Nucs?

I had 15 overwintered nucs that I raised for sale this spring. I listed them on Facebook Marketplace but I got reported for selling animals. Apparently bees count. I was able to sell half my nucs before that happened but now I'm not sure where to market nucs. I tried to list them again but then Facebook said I would be banned from marketplace if I listed again even though I see 20 other listings for nucs.
I tried Craigslist but only got 1 sale. Most Beekeeping Facebook pages I'm in say no advertising. I'm not sure where else to find buyers for nucs. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to list them next year?

2024.05.19 08:25 dylanpants23 Any place/way to swap games?

Does anyone know the best way to go about trading discs for different platforms? Got my hands on a ps3 copy of NCAA14, yet sadly only a xbox 360. Obviously want to find a way to swap with someone, but having a hard time connecting with anyone on marketplace/ebay/craigslist etc. New to this whole thing, and only finally found the game at a reasonable price after a long search, just for it to be the wrong platform

2024.05.19 06:10 prcved Mycotoxins In Hair

Im nearing 1 month into toxic mold exposure. Cleaned up some throw up with a towel and forgot it in the hamper (i know). When doing laundry mold powder (?) got in air the whilst unsticking the towel from my other clothes.
For the first two weeks i was sleeping in the same room with no air purifier. I started to develop worse symptoms, such as tight chest, delusion, issues remembering words, body twitches, abdomen aches, and so on. In the thick of it I had horrible insomnia.
Last week, I made the mistake of washing a contaminated pillow with the rest of my bedspread, being uneducated on how to "clean mold." That completely ruined me. Horrible body aches, tight chest, and most of the things in that room cause my symptoms to flare up as well. Im not yet able to move out, but I have since moved to a different room in the same house, albeit on a different floor. I didn't take anything from the room with me except a desk that ive wiped down.
Although, since the contamination of my pillows and bedspread, I've been experiencing what seems to be an all day, never ending headache. Often times this is my only noticeable symptom. Even when I leave the house, the back of my head still pulses with pain. I am only able to find relief when I wash my hair with cold water and shampoo, even if for a few minutes. Some days it goes away, then returning when I come into contact with contaminated clothing. I have dreadlocks, which are highly porous, hence why I fear that I have mycotoxins secured in the kinks of my hair. I notice that when i dry my hair, the fingers I'm using get stiff and hurt a bit. Hair touching my body also tends to cause a burning sensation.
Headaches, above all are my biggest concern with mold toxicity because of the inflammation in the brain it may cause. Am I correct to think that I have mycotoxins lodged in my hair, and how would I go about resolving this?
I already take magnesium and daily vitamins with my morning Adderall. I plan on acquiring activated charcoal, omega 3, as well as dosing 3mg melatonin every other night as I heal from this. I have a weeklong vacation next week that I hope will provide me some, at the very least, temporary relief. Any suggestions for longterm are greatly appreciated.

2024.05.19 06:00 The_Maiden_Jaiden I [18F] discovered that my mother [39F] was cheating on my father [47M] but after telling my father about it their relationship started improving, how do I go about trying to fix my relationship with my mother?

This will be a bit long so there will be a tl,dr at the end if you don't want to read all of it. I'm new at this so bear with me.
Bit of background about myself I [18F] have diagnosed combination type ADHD though for my entire life my doctor has recommended I be tested for Autism and my school has always been saying that I have Autism for as long as I can remember. I have never been emotionally attached to my parents while I am grateful for all they have done for me I have just never been attached to them like I would care if they were gone. When I was in elementary school I was a very hyper child and I was not well behaved at all due to this in kindergarten my teachers would often tell me to go off to another part of the room away from everyone else and give me things to play with so that I would be distracted and they could teach the rest of the class without me disrupting them so I would pretty much be isolated from everyone else. I have been in special needs classes since kindergarten and I have only been put on medication for my ADHD once which was when I was 8 but I was taken off it by my parents as it turned me into a "zombie" I believe the medication was Adderall but other than that I have been unmedicated for ten (10) years. My parents have been married 18 years, I believe they got married because my mother became pregnant with me
I discovered that my mother was cheating on my father about two (2) or three (3) months ago though I had been suspecting it for over six (6) months I just never had any solid proof until two (2) to three (3) months ago. Recently I had my friend send my father the proof of my mother's affair that I have collected but to my surprise after they talked for around 15 about it their relationship has improved significantly compared to how it's been for over a year. This all started in 2023 my mother began constantly face timing this guy we'll call P I had never seen before whenever my father wasn't around when I asked about it she said P was just a friend and so I believed her and I had even spoken to the guy though he didn't sit well with me as he seemed like a prick. After about a month of my mother constantly on the phone with P whenever my father wasn't around I began to wonder if there was more to this, so I began listening in on their conversations whenever I could to see if I could hear anything that indicated that was an affair but I never got anything out of it besides lewd jokes and comments from P about black women. During this time she was giving my father zero affection and had even stopped telling me that she loved me even I said it to her.
Eventually I got fed up with them constantly talking to each other and I was very angry with my mother for taking me and my three (3) year old brother to the park for as she called it "family time" only for her to be off on her own away from us and on her phone the entire time texting and face timing P and even flat out ignoring me numerous times whenever I tried to talk to her or asked her to watch me do something, this upset me because I like getting attention from others and she had denied me that. So after I was fed up with them I went off on my mother for the first time ever while she on the phone with P and said some not nice things to her and said not nice things about P, I also brought up my suspicion of her having an affair which she denied and when I pressed her about why said lied to me about things regarding P such as where he lived, how she knew him, why she only ever called him whenever my father wasn't around, and why she started talking to him she told me it was because she "wasn't allowed to have friends" which is not true she has many friends many of which I know. After that all happened I stopped talking to her for a while and she stopped calling him whenever I was around and I began to wait for opportunities for when I could take her phone and go though it as I knew her password. I couldn't just wait for her to go to bed as she is a light sleeper and my father goes to bed a different times from her so he would see me and question me as to why I was taking her phone or she would end up waking up and question me so I had to wait for when she left her phone unattended which wasn't very often.
Two (2) months ago I was able to swipe her phone and go though it and it was all right there. I love you's, naked pictures, sexual conversations, talk of divorcing my father for P and taking my brother with, and I made sure to get plenty of pictures of it and I even found out that on a trip she took to "Ohio" in which is paid 300$ for plan tickets to and from she had actually not went there and instead went to the state P lives, I also found P's Facebook where he had pictures of himself with my mother together and the dates the pictures were posted and the date my mother left for her trip matched up, during that trip she had actually never even called back home to talk to me, my father, or my brother. For a while after I confirmed my mother was cheating on my father I blamed myself because P asked me if I was okay with him talking to my mother (This was when I still though he was just her friend) and I said I was and it made me feel like I was the one that allowed this to happen but I realized it wasn't my fault and the only one to blame was my mother. After my mother returned from her trip she had actually wanted to have sex with my father for the first time in a while though I suspect she only did it because she had sex with P and wanted to do it with my father in case she became pregnant though I have no evidence to prove this but I do know that birth control does not work for my mother as when she conceived me, my sister, and my brother she was on birth control same as her mother though take that with a grain of salt as my mother is terrible at taking medication at the same time everyday. After that I began to plan out what to do, I didn't care about what would happen to me if they got divorced I was thinking of how I could try and get this to work out best for my brother. My at the time boyfriend had gone though a similar situation as to what I was going though, his mother cheated on his father and divorced him and ran away with her affair, leaving behind her children and leaving her ex-husband in lots of debt from legal fees. I didn't want that to happen to my father so I talked with my at the time boyfriend and my friends as for what I should do and I also looked into what the divorce laws in my state which my state does not count adultery as grounds for divorce.
Eventually I got another chance to go though my mother's phone and it was more of the same old stuff but in one part she told P that she was in the process of filing some kind of legal paperwork and P seemed excited about that there was also a "protected files" thing on her phone that needed a password to get into but since it wasn't the same password as the one to her phone I couldn't get it. Once I saw that I knew I couldn't wait any longer and I had my friend send my father the proof though a burner phone number so none of it was connected me and they wouldn't know I had all of the evidence then I waited for him to confront my mother. It didn't take long for that to happen as soon as she came home from work he was on her about it but he never raised his voice or showed any kind of aggression towards my mother they just calmly talked for about 15 minutes. During so my mother never showed any kind of regret or remorse, she never even said sorry mostly just saying "believe what you want to believe" she told my father that he was just a friend from high school (Though I think there is more to it than that) and that he was obsessed with her and wanted her to divorce my father for him and even her parents where egging her on to do it but she said she didn't want to give up her family and home just to start all over and that if she wanted to leave she would have already left, but that doesn't really make sense to me as if you cared so much about your family and the life you built then wouldn't you show some kind of emotional response when all of that was threatened? she also implied that the lewd pictures she had sent P he had paid her to send them. After they finished talking they hugged and carried on with their day like nothing had happened and they have been doing things they hadn't done in years, cuddling in bed together, kissing, and hugging. Today I checked my mother's phone again and it seems she has stopped talking to P all together and doesn't even have him as a friend of Facebook anymore and I can't find their messages on Facebook messenger anymore though I doubt she really stopped.
TL,DR: My mother cheated on my father but after exposing her cheating to my father their relationship began to improve, I want to try and fix my relationship with my mother for the sake of my brother but I don't know how to go about it
While their relationship is improving my relationship with my mother is in the trash I have told her to stop talking to me or doing anything with me period as I despise cheating but I would like to attempt to fix my relationship with my mother because I want to be in my brother's life and I feel if things between me and my mother sour she will prevent me from being around him and I plan on moving out as soon as I am able to. I have two (2) older half sister's 21 and 25 respectively (Same father different mother) but I don't get to see them much since they have their own lives and one of them even has her own family, my mother also doesn't like them and I feel she played a role in keeping me from seeing them when I was growing up and I have one (1) younger sister that was put up for adoption though it is an open adoption so I still see her every now and then, I have never been able to form any kind of relationship with my siblings as I never grew up with them and I scarcely saw them during my childhood but my brother is the only one I have been able to be with long-term and I want to be able to build a relationship with my brother as he grows up and I believe fixing my relationship with my mother will help me be able to do this. I want to be able to fix things between me and my mother for my brother but at the same time I don't want to reveal that I was the one that caused her little affair to get exposed as I feel that will damage our relationship even more. How should I approach mending things with her without damaging things further? I don't believe cheaters should be given a second chance with the person they cheated on but I want to fix things between me and mother at least temporarily for my brother.

2024.05.19 02:40 0x45646479 2014 diesel, hidden gem or money pit?

Hey folks! I have been looking for a cheap commuter car thats gets better mpg than my Tacoma and a 2014 Cruze diesel (160k miles, 2.0 luz engine, 8th digit ‘z’) with an auto trans came up for sale on Craigslist near me. I have a couple questions, any advice helps!
1) Parts availability, is it really that bad? I know oem is probably barren but can I find wear items easily? 2) Are the engine and transmission decent? I’m pretty fiat averse but maybe I’m just being ignorant in this instance. Haven’t heard good or bad things about the trans though. 3) Are there any common issues to look for if I end up going to see the car? IE did they make the 2014 model especially poorly. 4) Will I lose my shirt keeping it on the road? I’ve had a few cars where I was replacing the same stuff over and over and nothing kills my enthusiasm for a car quicker haha. 5) Is working on it a never ending nightmare with no reprieve? I’m a mechanic by trade but haven’t dipped my toe into diesel much (wrenched with a buddy on a ford 6.9 idi at one point but that was aaaaages ago). I’m confident in my abilities but if it’s Audi level complex I might have second thoughts.
Thanks in advance! I’m kind of hoping that some of the stuff I’ve already read is exaggerating the negatives about this car, because I really do love a simple car that does car stuff and nothing more.

2024.05.18 23:38 Regular_Bee_5605 I am over the methylphenidate class, just sucks badly for me

I foolishly asked to switch from amphetamines to try methylphenidate-based ones. The problem is that the potency is so incredibly low compared to amphetamines. I honestly can't feel even 1/10 the effects of amphetamines. I fall asleep on Concerta; I NEVER fell asleep on adderall, not even after years of taking it, because it was a real stimulant. It's going to be difficult to get back on an amphetamine now, but I must find a way.

Does anyone know if you receive the entire 3 month supply of medication all at once? And when the dosing instructions say to take 5 “units”, what does that equate to? I can’t find any information on their website. My intake specialist also said because I’m on adderall, my dose should be higher, but I can’t get anyone to help me address this. Any help or advice is appreciated!

2024.05.18 21:31 somethingdistinct For those on stimulant medication - since the very beginning of the shortage has it caused severe consequences to your employment/quality of life?

I figured if anyone is on the medication you know what withdrawal is like. I eventually lost my job due to the quality issues Adderall was having with a specific manufacturer. I'm now on SSDI and been out of work since November 11th 2022. Fortunately I'm on a different stimulant now that has steady supply but I can't help but wonder - what if this happens again? Like say, in a perfect world, the shortage is officially over but a couple years later or whenever it happens again? Btw im 37/M and I've lived back at home since 2015.... was working steadily or was able to find another job quick usually.
Just can't imagine moving on completely alone. I have a plan but it's the principle of the matter. The scariest thing for me is withdrawals and I've been through plenty.
Thanks for reading all of this , if you've gotten this far. Any input/advice would be appreciated.

2024.05.18 19:35 ryan_greaney0 Is there really no possible way to regenerate sweat glands for anhidrosis?

Edit: the title should be: Is there really no possible way to fix your autonomic system in relation to not being able to sweat.
I've scoured the internet looking for any sort of cure, and I just can't find it. If there's some kind of alternative solution, Id like to know because at this point I'm ready to give up. Also, I think this was caused by a severe mast cell flare up brought on by Adderall. Just putting this here, so someone can learn from my mistake. If you notice you've stopped sweating while taking it, get off immediately.

2024.05.18 18:54 Imthegoat1212 I’m think I need a second job, I’m barely getting by in this economy

I can’t enjoy life. I haven’t been able to enjoy my life for a while now. Everything costs money. Now everything is so damn expensive and I’m living paycheck to paycheck. After I get paid, once I pay all my bills the small amount of money I have left immediately goes to gas, groceries, laundry, etc. I had to even cancel all my subscriptions (Netflix/CrunchyRoll) in order to have more money to get by. Now I’m broke and bored. It feels like job raises don’t even matter at work anymore especially in retail.
I currently make $22 an hour as a retail supervisor. I haven’t done anything nice for myself in months. When I get invited out I feel bad because I have to keep declining because I can never admit that I’m really struggling. Sometimes I resent my parents because it feels like I never had a fair shot at life like others. Grew up with a mother that was very financially irresponsible. I remember being age 19/20 and having to take out pay day loans along with my brothers so we could pay rent because my mom would randomly quit her jobs. I started working at age 16 to support myself and I got sucked into paying bills in my household because my mom refused to keep a job. All I knew was survival and never really got the opportunity to use my money for myself and my future. We always had to make up for our mom’s mistakes and carelessness. I try not to be a victim to my past but it’s rough and I’m working on moving on.
The worst part is improving your mental health also cost a lot of money. Therapy, medication, and Psychiatrist, etc. I haven’t been able to get my adderall prescription in two months because I ran out of money on my work medical card and couldn’t afford an appointment. I’ve been avoiding getting a second job because my goal was to find one good job but I’m tired of being broke. If I have to sacrifice some free time to make more money I’m going to do it.
Anyone else working two jobs? How do you balance?

2024.05.18 18:12 snowfoot101 Homelab Equipment in the Area

I've been getting into homelabbing recently and was wondering if anyone knew any good local places to purchase used equipment or has old hardware they'd be willing to part ways with. Gone through the usual places of recycling centers, thrift stores, craigslist and fb marketplace, but am not finding much. Looking for a server with virtualization capabilities that I can ideally host a router, docker swarm, nas, or media server on as well as a network switch a ups, and possibly a quarter size rack.
Would rather buy locally instead of getting something off of ebay so I can see the hardware in person. Thanks for any and all suggestions.

2024.05.18 17:57 ElkImaginary566 What Can I Use For Anxiety To Replace A Couple Alcoholic Drinks Per Day?

My son passed away on September 30th, 2023. It has devastated me. Since he passed away...I have found myself at this point where I am drinking like 3-4 beers or drinks per day generally. Not really getting drunk but, you know, I never drank alcohol like this before.
It is before noon and I find myself cracking a beer. At this rate, I will probably have 6 or so by the time I go to bed.
I feel like I am not drinking for like "enjoyment" like when I would have a couple beers out on the weekend or something like before.
I feel like I am drinking to cope with basically what I would call "anxiety".
I just drink these beers at home, or, when I'm feeling it - I like to go and sit at bars and sit at the bar by myself and started doing that after my son passed. I hated being in the quiet. The non-busy bar is the perfect environment.
I can talk to the bartenders...the TV is on...there's music and I can play songs if I want to think about my son. I can look at his pictures...talk to other patrons.
I like the environment. More than even the drinks I feel myself wanting to be in those environments. To that point, I would feel weird going into this bar all the time and just ordering a water all the time. Like give a $10 tip and just get waters maybe...
But then I am still looking for something to replace the habit of going to a beer for my anxiety, coping.
What are some options out there that I can use routinely in a way you might use a couple of beers habitually?
I'm on Cymbalta, Adderall and Wellbutrin for depression, PTSD, ADHD everything else.
I had buspars before from my doctor but I really felt like the did nothing. I felt like they were like placebos. Wish those worked as my doc said they were non habit forming.
What about propranolol at low doses? Is that something to try?
CBD - does this actually work? What should I try?
Delta-8 gummies - I tried those and they made me feel very weird I thought
Marijuana - thought about getting a medical marijuana card but there are so many products I don't know what to use. Also, really don't want to get the munchies and I have always gotten the munchies when I have smoked. Marijuana seems like it could be an option if I could control the dose....I don't like gummies because I feel like it is unpredictable when they hit and when I smoke - it's like it is a crap shoot if I can smoke the right amount.
Basically - I've gotten what I would call "anxiety" since my son passed away and I am looking for ways to manage it and replace the habit I've developed of coping with a couple drinks every day.
Appreciate any feedback everyone.

2024.05.18 16:40 casualhorsegirl Renting Advice for Young Professional

Hi! I'm a 22-year-old woman and just accepted a job in Binghamton, so I'll be moving there around the second week of June. I am looking for general rental advice--areas you recommend, areas to stay away from, safest locations for a young woman, things like that. I have seen people say on here that Facebook marketplace and Craigslist can be helpful in addition to apartments.com, so it would be great if anyone can give any advice on finding a place on one of those sites without running into potential scams.
For context, I'm looking to either get a studio or one bedroom for myself, but would also be open to a 2 bedroom with another young woman/nb person as a roommate. I don't really want to live with more than 2 people unless it's the only place I can find. If anyone in here happens to be looking for a roommate or knows someone who is, let me know!
Since I'm just out of college myself, I'm not super worried about living in an area with a good number of students. It would definitely be nice to live somewhere with a community feeling, not somewhere with just a few units that feels super isolated.
Sorry there are a lot of things to address here, but any and all suggestions/advice are welcome!!

2024.05.18 16:03 SpeethImpediment Need someone for ~1 hour at MVA - Need advice about where to look or post such a request

Apologies for the strange post; I don’t know which apps/sites are best to find someone who can take or meet me at Reisterstown Rd MVA for about an hour on Monday @ 11:30am, but the car needs to be registered and insured in their name.
I don’t even know where I should start looking or post.
Details:
The last handful of years, I’ve been working my federal job remotely, taking the light rail once or twice a month when I need to go into the office, which drops me off a half a block from my building. Everything else I need (shopping, etc.) is within 1/4 mile from my house, so I haven’t really needed to drive.
I let my license expire >1 year and now have to take the driving test again. My family lives several states away and longtime friends have either moved as well, or otherwise unavailable.
My plan is to offer something like $50 (at least) for about an hour of their time plus a little more for gas, and allowing me to use their car for the test. Seriously, whatever I need to do.
I’m not very familiar with apps like TaskRabbit, etc. and I don’t even know if Craigslist is still a thing these days.
Any advice would certainly be appreciated. Thank you so much!

2024.05.18 14:23 _merning_glery_ I'm thinking of cutting off my Mother over this

Trigger Warning : suicide. Backstory to give context; 34f, I was recently diagnosed. I started seeking out therapy 3 years ago, I've displayed all the adhd symptoms, but I guess because of my age/gender adhd hasnt occurred to anyone (including me). I've gotten the usual general anxiety, depression, and CPTSD. I've been through antidepressants and xanax, it just makes me feel nothing and sleepy all the time. It's hardER to function like that.
I got breast cancer, I got the full monte treatment with some heavy chemo, and I'm in remission (with no tatas lol). This stripped me of ALL my masking abilities and I was almost non functional (you know what i mean). My oncologist connected me with the psychiatrist in their network. After some time with him he suggested I may have adhd and wanted to evaluate me. I was stunned by the 50 page paper "quiz". It asked me questions that hit me at my core. I'm prescribed adderall xr and it has changed my life for the better in every way.
My mother has quite a few diagnosis under her belt, and I'm sure they've missed something. She has attempted suicide 3 times. I lived with my father beginning at age 8. At 63, she's still competent and holds down a full time job. In my adult life, we've become very close. I used to call her almost everyday (we live in different states).
She simply does not believe I have Adhd. She laughed when I first told her and stopped when she saw I was upset. She has continued to deny that I have it and I find myself reasoning with her and explaining myself!! She counters with the fact I was in gifted classes and was "a good kid". No, I didn't jump on coffee tables screaming and bite teachers, but I didn't talk to anyone at home! My mother was absent and my father and stepmother were too involved with each other to even notice my brother or myself. I masked hard and didn't realize it, my father wasn't really nice (he is now that he's old). It's so frustrating that she is willing to accept literally any other diagnosis but ADHD. It really feels dehumanizing talking to her about it. I don't want to call her like I used to. When I talk to her we avoid the subject, but it's heavy on me that she thinks of me that way.
So I'm thinking of cutting her off for a while. I can't stand the tension. I've sent her things to read for education and her response is to kind of laugh and say "yeah maybe later ha". I can't change or mind or convince her. I don't even think I want to at this point. I'm not going to ghost her, but I think I'm going to tell her just like I'm telling you guys. I'm going to say "getting the correct diagnosis has improved my life and I'm sorry you feel like you do. I have sent you education material and I'm sorry, but until you can accept this and be respectful.. I need to cut off contact for my well being." I'll figure out how to tell her she's welcome to come back when she can be more respectful.
I could cut her off at the knees, I could ask her how would she know because she wasn't there... but I don't want an argument.
Thanks for reading, i needed to get that off my chest. Hope you guys have a wonderful day.

2024.05.18 13:25 Odd_Yogurtcloset_649 How long do you wait for a reply before moving on and conclude they are a Craigslist Flake or a possible spammer who wants to snag my e-mail address and other contact info?

I recently have a residential parking space available for rent listed on Craigslist, and (so far) I had two responses expressing interest.
First one from May 14 (exact words): "Hello! I am interested in renting your parking spot. What is the address? Do you accept direct deposit?" I answered those questions about payment, but did not provide any of my contact info until she replies back. As of this post, she has not.
Second one from May 15: "Hello, I am interested in your posting for the parking space. My vehicle is a Toyota Camry. Is the space still available?" I replied that yes, the space is still available and we can discuss further. I have not heard back.
What's funny to me was I responded to their e-mails just minutes after receiving them. Is waiting 24 hours after their last e-mail message more than enough time for me to move on and either call them a Craigslist Flake or a possible spammer who wants to know my e-mail address (and other contact info) that they could exploit? I remember doing a Craigslist post several years ago, where this actually happened and I got flooded with spam e-mails for weeks. If they are not spammers and actual real people, why would they flake out so quickly when obtaining private parking spots in local neighborhoods, at least in my area, are hard to find and in demand?

2024.05.18 09:38 Battlesmit (USA/Indiana) How do you actually *purchase* a used vehicle from another individual?

I'm 26 and due to circumstances of my life, driving a vehicle/having a license was never a valid option. I'm coming up on getting my license finally, and have the money for a "used" vehicle from FB marketplace/Craigslist/whatever, but know literally nothing about the actual process of...how vehicle ownership works.
Marketplace posts talk about having a "title" and from my understanding this is just paperwork saying you own the car but...what and how?
Basically: if I show up to someone's place to purchase a vehicle, and give them the money for it...what happens then? What steps past "the transaction" exist? Can I actually even drive the vehicle home that day? I do not understand the process and every Google search brings up info on how to find deals, not the actual process of...what happens when you find one.

2024.05.18 07:44 Dreameater999 How can I return to church? How do I ensure I even believe anymore?

Hello all -
I was raised a Christian: baptized, confirmed and such. I don’t know what happened exactly - perhaps it’s the depression that later was actually Bipolar Disorder, or my anxiety, or the recently diagnosed ADHD I suffered with my whole life without answers or anyone batting an eye… or all the stomach and reflux problems I’ve had since 17 (am 24 now). But somewhere on that path, I grew to dislike god and think he had it out to get me. I continued to attend church and such for my mom’s sake as it’s very important to her, but I’d find ways to get out of it whenever I could and didn’t really care about it. It didn’t help that we had a pastor that threatened me with hell if I ever committed suicide (a wonderful thing for a depressed person to hear, no?)
Anyways, around 21-22 I told my mom I refused to go anymore. It resulted in a big fight but she respected my wishes eventually with some badgering every once in awhile to return. A couple months ago, I finally just got annoyed of being pestered all the time about it and decided to go back so she’d leave me alone. I started attending again very recently. I never could focus on the sermons and such growing up, and I still can’t. Not sure if it’s the ADHD or what, but I’ve heard all the stories a million times I guess and I also just can’t focus on anything anyways unless I take my Adderall and am in the right state of mind to listen.
I’ve just been going through the motions per usual as I did before I left - stand, sit, do communion - but I don’t like to sing or anything so I just stand there and am sometimes lost in my thoughts.
Finally, I don’t know what clicked this week - but my anxiety got out of control. I realized for the first time in my life that I’m terrified to die. The idea of eternal blackness is completely terrifying and I feel like I need to find some hope or something to turn to - I just can’t bring myself to believe that blackness is it but I’m nervous about even the remote possibility that it’s true. I’m terrified to one day disappear and never see anyone again that I loved or enjoy things I used to… sounds absolutely terrifying to me to lose consciousness. I just can’t bring myself to believe that this is the end though… it can’t be. I need to talk this through with my therapist still, but I feel like I need to return and actually start taking church seriously because I need some sort of hope in my life.
My thoughts are just all jumbled and it’s hard to tell if I even believe anymore - I want to know I do so badly, but it’s always been really hard for me to process my thoughts and emotions. Fwiw, almost everyday I find myself having conversations with God - almost always negative ones, like “why do you make me suffer” and such lol. But I feel like if I didn’t believe something was out there still, I wouldn’t even bother to be talking to God.
I just don’t know what to do. I need guidance and hope right now and I’m just so scared and feel hopeless. I’ve been on the verge of tears for three days or so now. I have had these existential crises before, but not this intensely or this long before. I would appreciate some assistance with this - feel free to ask questions or whatever, I covered a lot of ground quickly and likely left out details.
Thank you, all.
