re: the poll

I've been trying to schedule an appointment with a psychiatrist for a while now, with my shitty insurance, in order to be diagnosed. So I'll wait until I do to answer.

Kevin is amazing and I absolutely recommend getting the Risk book

It's nice short stories that are fun to read one or two if if you have a little time waiting for a train or just need a mental break to learn that your life isn't that bad

This episode here is a very excellent and for thought provoking conversation iand sex and pee drinking, I enjoy Risk the podcast on its on through this show a few years ago when he was on with other stories of people and their lives. Nothing much shocks me these days and it’s fun to here that now I’m not the only one to hear of such things lol keep up the great work N8

I took a half-semester off from university due to my undiagnosed depression and anxiety. In that time I went from never have gone to councilling to going twice a week as well as being put on antidepression medication and being diagnosed with ADHD. I had gone basically the entirety of my schooling undiagnosed because I was smart enough to get by even with my lack of focus. Really was a game-changer in both my schooling and everyday life to be medicated for ADHD.

I got diagnosed with ADD/ADHD as a kid. I guess it was accurate because the meds they put me on were pretty effective. Sure I'd pay attention in school and do my homework, but I didn't care about any of that stuff; I was a drama geek and it felt like I was acting through this thick net that the meds kept me under. It was creativity crushing which made me miserable so I stopped taking them.

Now as an adult I talked to my doctor about going back on meds. He said that I'd have to go to weeks of therapy I can't afford with a shrink an hour away before I could maybe get a prescription. Oh well.

I was diagnosed when I was in kindergarten with ADD. I was on Ritalin for almost 20 years. I feel like it did a number on my psyche. I was super insecure, shy, socially awkward. When I got off of it that got much better. I still have ADD but I’ve learned how to better manage it without medications. I’m lucky though because not all people with ADD can do that.
