My first job... It was so bad. I didn't know I had a break. The fragrances upset my stomach and I had to sell that shit. 

Based parent! See what you can do to report this. She's young and I remember being afraid to speak up. 

It's amazing realizing when it's literally just chemicals. It's not lack of effort — our brains crave that stimulation!

Medication helps. I had to get off the nonstimulant I was on but it was the easiest 4 lbs I lost. It's a bummer because it IS just my brain... But outside of that, grapes, fruit in general, replacements, and staying NO at the grocery store (vs saying no when the food is already at your home) helps a lot.

Also, halo top ice cream.

Watching workout videos to workout at home (even when I could come up with workouts myself) is just body doubling as well!

40 jumping jacks and some music that is not so interesting that it distracts me but still interesting to keep my attention taken care of. 

Same in Chicago. Lots more surgicals but see kn95s more often now

Any bike > any car in my opinion. 

Heck even the darn scooters are probably better than the cars (as long as they aren't chucked into lakes)

I'm taking this as a chance to continue exploring vegetarian and vegan options. I've been eating less meat anyways. I personally have a hard time leaving eggs because they are a staple of my breakfast for about 15 years now, but otherwise I'm eating more beans, lentils, and making seitan! 

That all being said, I trust in cooking things well done, but I'm more concerned about cleanup. Cleaning up after chicken has always been tough, and admittedly I just know know what's enough.

Wait is this a symptom of masking? I'm approached quite often and although it can be annoying, I'm glad I make people comfortable 

I have a tendency to ruminate (still not sure if it's properly OCD or not) but when I have been practicing not going into a rumination spiral, once I'm distracted I'm pretty well good. It's great. I'm glad my mind isn't wanting to always dwell on the same thought.

I had to cut caffeine completely. From what I understand and experienced, caffeine is metabolized 2-3 times more slowly while on qulbree. Same with melatonin

My time came for me when my car was totaled on the way to visit family for the holidays. I decided to see how long I could go without a car, given my boyfriend already has one and I live in a city with transit. 

I think it's been a year and several months? My conscious feels better for it and I've put my money towards the transit I value.

My doctor was adamant he could help me get it covered if it wasn't covered by my insurance, I wonder if there is a financial assistance program? 

The first week was like having emotional PMS symptoms, kinda weird, but nothing bad. After that, it was mostly dry eyes, lowered sex drive, a bit more eyebrow hair and some darker hair above my lips, vaginal dryness easily solved with lube, and my knees felt like they may have gotten a bit more achey.

I was on it for about nine months

I'd give it a week and see how your feel from there. If symptoms improve, give it another week, otherwise, it just might not be for you. 

I would ask your doctor about myfembree. I was put on it after my surgery and it helped suppress growth and knock out the little tiny adhesions the surgeon may have missed. 

It's got menopause-like side effects and I'm pretty sure my knees worse for it, but I have my quality of life back so I can actually work out.

I'm super glad you got your second surgery, and I hope things remain good from here 

My restlessness went away after cutting caffeine completely and taking the pill about 2 hours before bed, though the problem falling asleep did not. 

I found magnesium supplements and CBD to be helpful but I'm not sure if your doctor would recommend that for your son. Maybe sleepy time tea would be a be good option? 

I hope aliens will come in and be like "ok well you really messed up your job to protect the planet, we're taking over"

My boyfriend is my object locator and he's so good at it. He's the best ♥️💕

I am so sorry your husband treats you this way. My boyfriend and I use our knowledge of each other's brain to inform our communication and approach to problem solving. 

For example, my boyfriend is likely autistic and gets overwhelmed from work or negativity pretty easily. He'll come home and have a rude tone (otherwise unlike him.) It throws me off big time and I get upset in response. Me not addressing it in the moment is something I do to keep the peace, but further distresses him since otherwise our communication is on point.

When this happened last time, we had a chat and directly addressed our needs and how words felt , even if we knew they meant something else. 

We addressed that, honestly, having a short tone and bad attitude was a bit rude to me. And, me not bringing that up in the moment won't help my boyfriend understand he's doing it and he can't read my mind. I also offered we could give him a "destress" time after work so he could transition to home time. Not only would that help him tend to his overstimulation, I would much more easily be able to understand what is going on and not jump to conclusions. 

I have had so much success with my boyfriend by going out on a limb to say how I feel and to be respected and received with love. Now, I can't say if the same is possible with your husband, but that is what a good relationship looks like to me.

I kinda like this idea too but at the same time it would go against the cooperative nature of the game. So I'm torn!

I agree that the story would progress really well this way. It not only makes sense but it does feel the more you play, the more you're like "oh yeah this is speaking to something, what's next?"

I totally see humans being a viable faction. Maybe there's a Mars outpost that's holding rebels? 

I also wonder what it would look like to have a civil war occur and have the option to join the rebels — ultimately that would go against the purely cooperative nature of the game though.

I miss Scotland! Loved my time there.

This is such a joyful image, love it!!
