This is how I got into mixed drinks, no noke

I tried them. It fucked with my gut, my sleep, and my personality... same thing happened to my son who was encouraged to take them by his mom.

Bottom line is almost anyone I've ever known who was prescribed ADHD meds didn't want to keep taking them and stopped at some point; only exception being my sister who is on more of a broad spectrum anxiety/depression med that also may treat ADHD.

I had similar experiences recently. It seems like this generation of young women either has more older guy fetishes or is less shy about showing them. Either way, I am right there with you--it felt surprisingly gross.

I'll be honest, it has really prevented me from accepting the fact that I screened positive as an adult for ADHD based on other symptoms, because I'm older and when I was in elementary school non-hyperactive ADHD wasn't really much of a thing. (Side rant: why can't we go back to calling it ADD if it's not hyperactive? Why did they ever decide to erase the distinction and call them the same thing?) But having a son with non-hyperactive ADHD has forced me to admit that it exists, and see signs of it in myself. Unfortunately the side effects of meditation are not worth it in my case, so I can't do much with this insight.

I'm honestly surprised that nobody has said anything about MS Office, but it's not like I expect anyone to miss the application itself, it's just that if your work requires you to interface with it, there really is no alternative to running Windows or MacOS. Microsoft's own Office Online versions of the apps do a worse job of maintaining DOC/PPT formatting consistency than the possible Russian spyware that is OnlyOffice, which also screws things up too often to be relied upon. LibreOffice is, let's be honest, a total mess (with the exception of Calc, which also isn't consistent with the current version of Excel, but can do some things that Excel no longer can do, so I appreciate it more as a complementary tool than as a replacement).
