It's good to know I'm not alone. I can totally relate to everything you wrote about the fatigue and confusion... yet my mother disbelieved that I could have ADD and spend hours playing video games. Turns out there's a reason for that too (I read somewhere that the flashing lights and fast pace of video games is quite…

Can it, Dr. Ruth.

I'm not sure I understand the question. I am diagnosed with ADD and take Adderall for it. Do you mean if it is considered abuse of a drug if someone without a diagnosis takes it? Technically, maybe... But stimulants affect people with ADD differently than they do regular people. My friends who don't have the condition…

I'd never heard of that before (googling now), but you might be right!

A bottle of wine totally counts as one drink as long as you don't pour it out into a glass. Also, I too play the Sims. Sometimes obsessively. Sometimes I'll turn down opportunities to hang out or woohoo with real people to play the Sims.

I can drink coffee by the boatload but tea, particularly green tea, makes me vomit. Wonder why that is.

My family doctor prescribed me stimulants without an evaluation. But then again, we had tried so many different brands of anti-depressant he was probably like "what the hell."

Oof. I wish I had been diagnosed in college. For one, I would've done a lot better gradewise... but making a little cash on the side is always a tempting prospect for an indebted collage grad surviving on ramen.

Hey, adult with ADD here!

I remember that statuette. It was referred to as "Laundry Gate Mary Jane." It's even grosser when viewed from the side.

God that is just gruesome.

Agreed. I have a doggy and he is the greatest thing ever. Also, my two cats. Going to hug the cats now.

Thanks for the generic demeaning advice and putting all of the blame on me and my choices even though you know nothing about my situation. I didn't come here to be judged.

I will never know what it feels like to love or be loved like a human being.

It's part of a series of very disturbing Canadian PSAs. There's another one I can't bear to watch where a chef slips in a kitchen and spills boiling oil all over her face, screaming. They certainly do make an impression.

It seems not much has changed.

Thanks! Most drugstore lipsticks have a blue undertone which I despise. I find it harder to get one that's orangey. The poster above recommended one that looks pretty natural.

Crest whitestrips are relatively inexpensive, and I find them very effective. If your teeth are sensitive (mine are) then they have a brand for "gentle" whitening, or you can pick up a tube of Sensodine toothpaste to help.

Meh. Pass. Red lipstick makes my teeth look yellow. And I have white teeth.

So ... smooth...
