I got 5 hissing roaches from Petco, and I got them a 10 gallon tank with a mesh lid. I still want to be extra careful that they don’t escape however, so I put some heavy books on top. But I also read that some people use petroleum jelly on the top of the lid to keep them from climbing, I don’t have any atm (I don’t mind buying some though) but I was just wondering if I could use coconut oil instead since I happen to have that. Or would it not even be necessary with the books and the mesh lid? Thanks!

This is the worst thing to ever happen to this county. Poor JD having to suffer such a horrible disease and die at such a young age. Even my therapist cried when we talked about it in our last session. She also said she knows someone in the government who said that President Trump is also suffering from mental health issues brought on by the loss of his friend, our dearly departed JD Vance. Our poor, dear leader President Trump is even showing signs of dementia as a result of his grief, and even worse, his dementia will likely continue to progress!

Everyone says that exercise is supposed to help with ADHD symptoms but it hasn’t worked for me, it just makes me tired. Anyway I just wanted to complain lol.
Edit: I’ve realized exercise does make me feel a little more positive, but doesn’t do much otherwise and I think part of the problem is that when I get depressed it’s also hard to motivate myself to work out in the first place.

I’ve noticed that for a few days, maybe a week or two each month (I’m bad at counting time lol) but I’m completely scatterbrained, can’t remember what someone said 2 seconds ago, can barely control what comes out of my own mouth, become lazy af and also depressed. It’s like a night and day difference to how I normally feel with this med but those few days are hell. Anyone else experience this?

I’ve been diagnosed with both VPD and APD (along with ADHD) but I’ve never met anyone else with VPD and even on Reddit it isn’t talked about much. APD seems to be more common. VPD I think is similar though, and honestly it kind of affects me more than APD (but I think my APD is more mild compared to a lot of the stories I’ve read here) like for me I have a really hard time seeing where people are pointing, I’m terrible with directions, and I’m always bumping into things. Also I tried learning sign language once and I found it to be even more difficult to learn than an auditory language, but everyone else I’ve talked to has said the opposite.

It’s so annoying lol, i like having free time (in theory) but I need a schedule to keep me from bedrotting all day. And by schedule, I mean something like work where I’m held accountable to sticking to it and there would be consequences if I didn’t show up, not making up my own schedule for the day. Not sure if this is due to my adhd or the anxiety and depression I’ve also been diagnosed with. Can any of you relate?
