Ugh...this hit me so hard in the feels man. I know EXACTLY what you’re talking about. Am I talking to myself? Granted, my struggles are different from yours (more impulse control issues, difficulty sleeping, incredibly rigid routine), but all the sentiments you expressed up there are all things I’ve said to other…

For the record, I wasn’t mad. Just pointing out that not everyone does, because I do think it’s a common misconception that everyone who takes it loves it. For me, it’s just a thing I have to do and I’d sooner not take it than take it just because of the side effects. Now, some of the side effects are beneficial…

This header got my hopes up and then they were summarily dashed...

No, I am right there with you! Fuck the insurance companies in this respect when it comes to controlled drugs. Not only are they outrageously expensive, but this is one of the few instances where generics may not work as well as the original brand. UUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHH!

I feel the exact same way you do about this article. I actually agree with the premise that marketing it as tasting like candy is a bad thing to do, but this piece was extremely sensationalist and instead of rightfully criticizing the marketing, they attacked ADHD meds (and by association, those that have ADHD)…

I tolerated that I had to take it. I didn’t love it. I appreciated what it did, but would have preferred if I didn’t have to be medicated.

God, getting a prescription filled can be a NIGHTMARE when you try to get it for the first time on new insurance. It typically takes at least a week (in my experience) to get the prior auth finalized. Hell, one of the previous times, they wanted me to get REDIAGNOSED!!!! I shelled out a couple of hundred for an…

Thanks for writing this. I was diagnosed with ADHD as a child and came here to defend Adderall because it was absolutely necessary for me to function in school (I was diagnosed sometime in elementary school). It took a couple of different medications before we decided that Adderall was the right one, but I probably…

I think you’re misdirecting your anger here. I simply stated my experience and prefaced it as such. I thought we were sharing experiences with bullies, so I was sharing mine. I’m sorry it doesn’t fit your narrative, but I’m not one of the people that bullied you, so I’m not sure why you’re angry at me.

Luke, is it just me, or is the theme in the second TMNT video (the C64 one) really similar to this:

I never let it get to the point where I was ganged up on. I had a REALLY bad temper as a kid, so every once in a while, a bully would pick on me alone, and I’d just lay them flat with one hit. Sure, I got detention for it each time, but hit them hard enough the first time and they’re usually too scared to come back.…

To be honest, I fought and won against all my bullies and it always stopped the bullying. My experience has been that bullies are cowards, and if you CAN put up a fight and they know you’re not afraid to back down and can potentially beat or at least hurt them seriously, they’ll back off.

My wife wears lolita. I think it’s such a fantastic style. Do you have a particular style that you gravitate towards (goth, classic, sweet)? My wife tends to go goth or classic. We recently moved and she’s thinking of selling off most of her wardrobe and it makes me a little sad because she looks so good in it!

Right? I’m a straight guy and that guy is incredibly good looking.

No problem! At first I thought it was a Diablo III thing, but when they said Pokemon in the article, it immediately clicked!

I don’t think social justice had anything to do with it... Personally, I’m just hard against Harley Quinn cosplays in general. It’s the new Slave Leia for cons. I do applaud her for being confident in her own body, though and would actively encourage more people of all shapes and sizes to cosplay.

Kinky skulls aside, it’s just a fantastically made costume.

Is no one gonna comment on that cubone and umbreon? Seriously, those are absolutely stellar.
