GOD BLESS WHO WROTE THIS! So glad I found this post. This is how I was feeling today I said I WISH THE WORLD KNEW HOW ADHD FEELS AND ITS COMPLICATIONS! I wish ppl took it seriously 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Someone just told me that I should never have been on ADHD meds, since “ADHD isn’t even dangerous”. And that made me realize that most people genuinely don’t know how dangerous having ADHD can be. ADHDers are more likely to get into car crashes. We experience higher rates of anxiety, depression, self harm, and suicidal ideation. We forget to do basic things like eating and taking care of ourselves, so we’re more prone to getting sick and even developing serious diseases. We’re also at risk for developing eating disorders. We’re impulsive, which can lead to us getting into accidents and dangerous situations with other people. Kids with ADHD make more visits to the hospital than neurotypical kids. We’re more likely to get into a bad relationship or to have an abusive partner. ADHD can destroy relationships, your social life, your grades, and your career. It makes you more likely to smoke, drink, or do drugs, and people with ADHD are more likely to get into trouble with the law. Some people suggest that 20-40% of people in prison have ADHD. ADHD literally lowers your life expectancy. And I want people to take it seriously.

Need opinions/help. If paragraph is too much to read just skip to the second one it’s shorter lol… This adderall shortage by Teva manufacture is more than pissing me off I already questioned that adderall isn’t effective as it once was for me but it was still better than no meds for my ADHD. On top of that I’ve been struggling more with my mental health so skipping my adderall wasn’t the easy thing to do but now i don’t know what the heck I’m gonna do when I’m completely out. I’ve tried another brand of adderall once called Sandoz but it did not work for me.. it made me anxious didn’t help me focus.. could only focus my the anxiety. I’m scared to try another manufacture. Not having insurance doesn’t help either so I pay for meds out of pocket so it really sucks not being able to have access to what I know works for sure. I’ve looked into a called manufacture North Star someone said they noticed it helped their symptoms less compared to Teva.. same goes for a brand called Mallinckrodt…

**QUESTION**

For your ADHD meds what brand/manufacture do you use if it’s not Teva? & what pharmacy fo you go to? Or anyone know what pharmacy I should try for TEVA? Walgreens seems to be out of the question

Here’s an update from my personal blog I will be posting more stuff to ADHD Soul soon

~Life Update~

First of all I want to say thank you to everyone that follows my ADHD Soul blog and thank you to everyone that follows my gaming content content I appreciate all the support ❤️

Here’s an update on life..animal job didn’t work out it didn’t help the depressive slump I’ve been in. The way they trained wasn’t great and it’s the fact that there was no actual manager just a bunch of young ppl working there. For learning some things my type of brain half ass training doesn’t work for me I need hands on learning or might need a little extra to learn something but once I learn whatever sometimes I exceed expectations and try to be perfectionist. So losing job was a real let down for me. I sometimes wonder if I should’ve mentioned the ADHD thing but would it really hurt or help me and sometimes I wonder if I should get a letter or something from my doctor that could protect me from being let go or certain treatment at work. So that job ended in March/February. It wasn’t till December I decided to give another job a chance I actually was hired on the spot it was another shoe store I was so excited but everything wasn’t as it seemed I was supposed to be hired as full time and then apparently it turned it I wasn’t. They are weird about taking breaks sometimes like most places I’ve worked you are required to take a 30 min lunch and a 10/ 15 min small break if you work 5 or more hours even working just 4 gets you 10/15 mins. If it’s really busy some managers prefer you to eat while working. Like no sorry sometimes ppl need to sit down like we ac right now either. This company the way things are ran is more competitive and just different from the last shoe store I worked at We got a new store manager just seems colder more old school. It just makes me miss my old shoe store even more…

My old shoe store job had closed during covid. We all never officially everyone never said goodbye to each other and It was at a new location I had been at for about 6 months and didn’t accomplish everything I wanted to/ dealing with mean girl type of drama & as still processing the fact that I lost my original store I started out at I originally didn’t want to relocate and stop being the assistant manager. We lost another store manager ( losing the first one was real hard for me too ) so they thought it was best to move me to a more heavy volume store to be a sales lead manager. I felt like my time was cut short as an ASM and I felt like I wasn’t always taken seriously and their communication sucked at the end and tbh when I look back on it I was younger I could’ve used a little more training with some things but still their communication could’ve been better talking goes both ways. I’ll talk more about it another time.

After the shoe store company closed my little fun nameless part time job became my main job.. I fought through bs to became a supervisor at a new high volume location I knew store manager for a long time worked with him at multiple locations I even once called him my friend. Working there turned into a nightmare toxic work environment bc the assistant manager has it out for me but tbh she ends up having a problem with everyone there was always something wrong.. Then there was other stuff but more of that later.. yes I told my store manager after holidays that I wanted to be done but I was upset I thought he was my friend is that no reason to ever call or text an employee when they took a leave of absence when they get sick with covid ? No one ever reached out to me to see how I was doing so I thought they didn’t want me to come back so I never went back and a few months later my store manager who I thought was my friend blocked me on Snapchat. I’m still trying to live with my decision that I never reached out and still debating if I ever will… I wonder if I was put as fired and not rehire able.. i was great at my job I really loved the job itself just not the location in the end.. then sometimes I do miss my friend… who was my store manager..this was the first ever place to really inspire to be a manager run a place have a business this was the first place I wanted to be a manager at. For months I thought about texting him but I couldn’t do it I don’t know why or how I became this way but it got to a point at work where I stopped texting my manager every time there was a problem it just got tiring.

So it’s been a rocky road with work places every job has its negatives and not every job will have bad management. So all that is kinda what lead to my slump along with at the beginning of it all I had a condition that acting up again but I deal with it the best I can with diet and supplements. It’s called IC/PBS ( interstitial Cystitis / painful bladder syndrome ) on top that I think have OAB 😭

So here am I figuring out what to do next no health insurance might be diabetic

Right after leaving nameless job I got back into gaming started giving streaming a try and start making gaming content I’m still doing it but it can only distract me so much now and bring me so happiness but I’ll keep doing it bc I know there are ppl that enjoy my content and if it brings somebody some sort of joy that that makes me happy too. Who knows maybe one of my videos will blow up someday one of them once got 50k views. At one point I was streaming everyday I’ll possibly get back to that we”ll see. Also trying to get back into writing and blogging more check out my ADHD Soul blogs on Tumblr and Reddit . Also enjoy photography and started wire wrapping crystals thinking about possibly selling some. Check out my Instagram to see @crystalwitch_22 We”ll see. Thanks for reading.

THISSS🗣🗣🗣

Yea we may make it look fun but it’s not.😭

I guess it can appear that way bc some of us have bubbly /goofy personalities, along with feeling emotions more intensely, and then mix that with inattentiveness and or hyperactivity.

It can also appear that way because our highs can be really high..🚀 Like sometimes you’re happy and then there’s just in a really good ass mood. You might light up the whole room or draw attention to yourself because you’re in that good of a mood.

-You may laugh at something for minutes or for days till your tummy muscles aches

-You might be telling everyone and their mom about the fact that 🗣👥👥👥 :

-Maybe you accomplished something that your proud of

-Started a new hobby

- Have a new bf or gf

-Bought something new

^the oversharing struggle 🗣👥👥👥

-You could just be in a good mood and accidentally talking too loud or maybe laughing too loud. 🤫😥Or just being a chatterbox ( I got my name written on the board in class for that one )

- or just passionately talking about something your very passionate about like you could have your own talk show lol and maybe dump a lot of info to others bc you’re an expert on the topic

Then our lows can be really low..⚓️😓🤬Like when you’re mad you’re mad. Can go from 0-10 real quick. Something that may not bother a regular pupil may feel like a slap in the face. Then there’s the struggle with emotional regulation…😭

-Might take me more time to get over something than your regular pupil would 🙃

-Easy to make me cry😓 ( sometimes especially when I was younger )

-argumentative ass that has to have the last word 😆

-Being short tempered

- If I have a plan and it all goes to shit I might huff and puff 😆😤

- might be a little sassy on the road 🚘 ( I try to think now it as it’s not worth it and too many accidents happen everyday or what if someone’s just having a bad day or are spacey soul like me and didn’t mean to drive like crap lol ( also if I leave earlier and not running late there’s a less chance of road rage and sassiness 😭 )

Back to the goofy and bubbly personality thing I had an someone very close to me once tell me to “never change “ so at least one positive thing about the ADD/ADHD is having a unique personality. I think I also me laughing a lot sometimes or trying to be funny, make others laugh or smile is one of my ways of coping and just trying to make life and more fun and positive because some days are really tough.

(Might add more to this later my original post I didn’t save as a draft and it got deleted and I didn’t remember everything I wrote 😭 )

Thanks for reading. Hope you all are having a nice weekend.

I wrote this on my personal blog wanted to share on you here too.

I felt the need to writer this and put together this collection of pictures I’ve found.

I remember being in fourth grade and practicing lockdown drills.

We would all hide, turn the lights off. We would sit in silence as we would wait for principal to speak on the intercom and say “ok lockdown drill practice is over” and classes would continue on with their day.

I couldn’t imagine how scary it would be hear the principal say over the intercom we are having a lockdown this is not a drill. I couldn’t imagine how terrifying it would be to have the school day interrupted by the sound of gun shots and screams.

I’ve heard people say kids are the future. School is suppose to be a safe place for learning. It’s truly sad, scary, and disturbing how this is happening more often…

This is the 27th school shooting this year…

In 2021 = 34 school shootings

In 2020 = 10

In 2018 & 2018 =24

As for mass shootings we have had 233 so far this year and that’s more than the number of days we’ve had so far this year.

In 2021 = 693 mass shootings

In 2020 = 611

In 2019 = 417

I couldn’t believe it when I heard that when police arrived they didn’t try to get in the school right away. If they couldn’t get in through the door couldn’t they have tried break a window or something. I read police were waiting for border patrol to come like wtf.

Then one parent was pepper sprayed and one was handcuffed because they were begging the police to do their damn job which no one should ever have to do….

Fortunately for the parent who was handcuffed was released and actually got into the school to get her two sons.

I read one guy who’s a border patrol officer named Jacob Alabarado, borrowed his barber’s gun and rushed to the school to save his wife who is a teacher there and his daughter who is a student. Then after getting them out him and his colleagues took out the shooter.

Numbers for gun violence and gun deaths are going up every year

I understand people want to to defend themselves

But apparently we are the only country that has problems with mass shootings.

I’ve read UK made their gun laws more strict and it has helped them. I hope our country’s leaders do something.

More action needs to be taken.

Texas should not have made their gun laws more lenient….

A high school drop shouldn’t have been able to easily buy such a dangerous weapon

Requirements to purchase and own firearms should be more strict

Limit the number of bullets someone can buy at a time

Maybe this sounds like a far stretch but it’s 2022 I’m just a regular civilian just throwing out ideas

Maybe someone could invent a gps or tracker that can go inside guns and that are designed to alert police if the person with the gun goes by a school or places where crowds gather.

If you have a system that monitors social media accounts certain things shouldn’t be kept confidential just because someone is a minor. Stuff such as someone talking about threatening to harm others, using violence, and showing an interest in guns. I’ll say it again stuff like that shouldn’t be kept confidential.

Secure the schools more put cameras in all the hallways and or class rooms

My heart goes out to everyone that was hurt and startled by this.. My heart goes out to the little girl that was shot five times and survived.

My heart goes out to the families and friends of those 2 teachers and 19 children that were lost. May those all those souls Rest In Peace. You deserved better and so I hope the entire country and Texas will do better.
