  1. I had same experiences as something_else. Except Elvanse gave me some hardcore insomnia so I switched. But the quality of life, ability to focus, emotional regulation and socialisation ability is so much better for me on ADHD meds. Its really night and day for me.
  2. The best way I know to deal with grief over lost time and opportunities is the following. Ask yourself "Do I want to be [INSERT NEXT AGE] and have done X or be that age and not have done X" --- Have also been reading the Foner's History of America as the course reading for the lecture series. Here are three things I learnt about: - The American colonists fearing anarchy among the poor if revolution were to take place - The Battle of Boston - The British cut down the Liberty Tree, and then the Americans called it the Liberty Stump in defiance lol
  3. Might drop some stuff in here from time to time

  10. Its a red flag but here is some of what I used to become the most attractive member of the forum. Tease You have the most Joe Biden facial expressions I think you might be the girl my mother warned me about Push-pull You look like trouble in the most adorable way You're cute, you remind me of a sassy squirrel (used that one on Yeti) You're lowkey adorable I love your look. Its great your trying to bring the 90s back You're actually not retarded. Its refreshing. You're not actually totally boring. I'm not sure we're gonna get along. You're so cute, you're like a nerdy cartoon character Part of me loves you, part of me wants to run away Please stop being so cute, it’s distracting That is an interesting shirt choice That is a bold choice of shoes Cocky Life is hard for attractive people like us Its a red flag but (INSERT BRAG) Its bad but (INSERT BRAG) (Used this on Olaf)

  16. Orange Got real orange in my teens. Was into loads of conservative youtubers like Ben Shapiro and Yiannopolous. Then started watching RSD a lot and self-dev stuff. Got into one of the best universities in the world and had a mindset of you make your own success. Green Started having mental health stuff and struggles with my academics. People in my life came down HARD on me. Got ostracised by all sorts of people as being a lazy disrespectful person, especially at the university. I saw how fucked up Orange and Blue's rigid ideas of right/ wrong could be. My ideas around meritocracy and ability to just make it on my own came tumbling down. Also came across epistemic regress argument, which tanked rationalism for me. Critical legal studies in my law degree also persuaded me on various green ideas, i.e. the nature of ideology, capitalism etc. Later on I ended up on welfare after having to drop out of university. And that really hammered home the importance of Green to me, and further the fucked up consequences of orange/ blue. Some of the blues and oranges can really love to dunk on you when you're at that point. Yellow Came across IFS therapy, and its ideas of determined, systems thinking. People's minds work in systems, so then society must work in systems. You can be compassionate and empathetic all you want but unless you understand the system you're trying to change. Good luck not messing up. IFS lit the match here. Leo supplied the kerosene. Turquoise I don't really understand this stage still.
  17. My career/ life-purpose, my family and Lordfall's new video game
