The inability to self-soothe and therefore outburst when you have emotions is an executive dysfunction that is definitely part of ADHD. As others have said, the degree to which you feel the emotions may have other components, but the inability to quell or redirect your emotions is definitely a normal ADHD symptom.

I’ve largely done those things too until I got diagnosed, at 27. Since then I did adderall on and off, it works decently for me, however, the effects on my mood as it drains out of my system are not great. Mostly, I become extremely irritable. Lately I’ve been reading and watching more about ADHD, and Russell Barkley really changed the way I see the issue. I, now more than ever, see ADHD as a chemical shortcoming of my brain and I’m really pursuing the right drug or combination of drugs to deal with issues I’ve been failing to overcome for decades.

Dr Russell Barkley, a respected researcher in the field of ADHD, basically states that there is a chemical deficiency in your brain that makes it physically impossible for it to simply ‘be’ better, and that things like behavior modification have been shown to be helpful… almost exclusively when the subject is also on medication. And even when environmental changes can make a difference, it tends to fall on those close to the ADHDer to help set up those accommodations, at least with children. However, with adults there exist the same struggles, just to a /slightly/ lesser extent.

Yeah the $ implies the word dollar, in this case becoming “239 billion dollars”

The best programmers are, 80/20 is life

Dr Russell Barkley seems to be pretty against the idea of not taking meds. ADHD affects all parts of your life, and just because you don’t have school doesnt mean you dont have ADHD. Your brain works better on the drugs, you can be more responsible, put more effort into your hobbies, and take better care of yourself if youre on your meds.

Unless theyve got some real reason for suggesting that, you should probably get a new dr.

Do you want one? Will you use it? Could that money bring you more happiness in the long run used in some other way?

These are the kinds of questions I ask myself before spending >$50, usually prevents me from regret.

This makes sense, I read somewhere recently that there actually is no evidence that people’s attention span is getting shorter, it’s just crap people say.

Yeah, like mounting plates for cameras…. Um, I think that’s the only place I’ve appreciated a slot screw

I think the misunderstanding is coming from me going with the wikipedia & cloudflare definition of DoS attack, which includes intent. Image

And, in my opinion “the point is to screw with their bandwidth and their servers” sounds like you are intending to cause disruption (presumably by being part of a larger group of users doing the same thing), you might even call it a DDoS.

What’s the arch way?

It’s just kinda sounded like you’re trying to deny service of their bandwidth and servers.

To your DoS statement, can you clarify by explaining what you are attempting to do with these uploads?

Why did you get banned? Did you post them to /r/Noise ?
You can’t just DoS their servers like that, but feel free to contribute noise to the appropriate sub.

Gotta love a power trip

Hi fren, how’s it going?

Solid analogy

I think the reported number was like ≈10% use third party apps.

The real question is how much of the best content came from those users, how many of them are moderators, and how many will leave. Bc those people will have an outsized impact on the website.

Funny, but for real, we didn’t fish them out. They were there one year, and gone the next. Thoughts are they migrated somewhere deeper due to changing water temperatures.

James Hoffmanns reviews led me to get a baratza encore. Quite pleased with it.
