dr 🛠️🛰️📡🎧:blobfoxcomputer:

One of my biggest takeaways from my #adhd journey is that 99.9% of #psychiatric articles are 100% unhelpful.

They are written from the POV of an outside observer, *even in self-assessment tests and descriptions of #medication effects*.

"How often are you distracted by activity or noise around you?"

Never. I am alert to my surroundings, sometimes to the annoyance of other people near me who may need to momentarily take a back seat to a potential hazard or critical issue.

"How often do you have difficulty waiting your turn in situations when turn taking is required?"

When required? Never. But it often happens that slowpokes are content to mosey along or no one is eager to take their turn, in which cases I'm happy to take their place.

"Adderall can normalize your attention span and help you listen better."

Weird, that's not what it does for me. It makes me feel calm and like I don't need to juggle 5 things at once before I forget them.

Not All Generics Are Created Equal: Study Exposes a 54% Higher Risk in imported generics from emerging economies like India

The results show that all generic drugs are not equal, even though patients are often told that they are, said John Gray, co-author of the study and professor of operations at The #Ohio State University’s Fisher College of Business.

The issue seems to stem from regulatory oversight differences, as FDA inspections abroad are prearranged, potentially hiding quality concerns.

Your Autistic Life FR/EN/ES

Gather 'round, kids. I got t tale, a tale of woe.

Once upon a time, I went into the forest. There, I picked a fight with a tree. The tree won. Haha. As if. No, I won. However, the conniving tree took a big bite out of my back.

"Wait... that tree had teeth?"

No, that's the poetic way in which I signify that I hurt myself. The tree in question was encroaching on the path in the forest. So I took my trusty chainsaw to cut it down. Cut it down, I did. Then I had to pick up the logs and stack them in my UTV. Unfortunately, I misjudged how heavy one log was, and it gave me an eternal gift: a bulge in my spine. With the bulge came pain.

I went to the doctors who told me, "Yes, you do have a bulge in your spine. Here's a prescription. Call us if you die." I tried to fill that prescription, but the US being such a mess, I was never able to fill it, because of the DEA. (Yes, that DEA.) They were freaking out and restricting how much of the medication was given out, blah blah. So I went without. That was fun (as in NOT fun).

Eventually, I healed, but the bulge is still there waiting for its moment to shine. That moment came last weekend. I've had spinal pain since Saturday. I'm a bit of a dunce, however, because I got on the pain medicine only yesterday (Sunday). I'm taking acetaminophen, max dose. It does not completely eliminate the pain, but it helps.

My ex-wife has a history with back pain. She's had some of her vertebrae fused due to her pain. I remember one of her doctors saying that it is more or less the luck of the draw whether someone can deal with back pain only with medication, or if they need surgery.

I'm hoping I just need medication. I'm glad I don't have to run into an office with this pain.
