  • Me too. I always had good grades, but had no organization skills. My homework log was asking the guy at the locker next to me what was due tomorrow. Great career now with 3 degrees. Struggle to get anything started, but when momentum is going, i cant stop.

    I always suspected adhd, especially when online communities became more prevalent. It wasnt until a marriage councilor called me out on my ADHD and was stunned Id never been diagnosed.







  • Im right there with you, but with beer. I used to have a beer or 2 every night after everyone was in bed. Sit down in the basement and load up a game or show. Decided to stop doing that, and had no urge to drink through out the day, but as soon as id go downstairs and fire up the games, id reach for beer that wasnt there. It was purely habit at that point for me.

    As others do to curb their snacking habits, i just dont buy it, because that urge doesnt exist during the day



  • I thought the same for quite a long time, and admittedly, im still not convinced that i dont have adhd, but i did recently learn i have a folate deficiency. That can lead to a type of anemia, and in combination gave me a lot of symptoms that looks like adhd (memory loss, fatigue, inability to concentrate, lack of fucks to give, brain fog). A simple supplement did a ton to get me back on track

    I just bought a house, and honestly, dont even try to get a above 20% to knock off pmi (assuming thats a thing where you are). When we sold our previous house and did a recast with the proceeds, the difference between hitting 20% and hitting the 20% + $50k was about $200 in monthly payments





  • The other comment is a pretty good baseline (1 a day), but there is some nuance to it. Gender/body size/age, etc all play a role. And it matters if youre literally doing 1 a day or averaging 1 a day. Having 7 drinks every saturday is not the same and have 1 drink with dinner every day.

    The best answer is, consult your medical professional

    We just moved to a house with over an acre and a creek that runs through the back yard and we have them all over the place right now.

    My dog had never seen them before and i caught him this week trying to eat them. One would flash and he’d chomp towards it, then another would and he seemed confused on how it got over there so fast and hed chomp that direction. It was precious
