  • My ADHD methodology involves getting good sleep (a lifelong challenge that took me more than thirty years to figure itself) followed by huge amounts of caffeine as zero calorie energy drinks to take the place of prescription stimulants. I also have low blood pressure. So I’m like a whole new person once I’ve eaten and medicated, but I need a long time to wake up and come around to my full performance level.


  • I have ADHD and have always just needed way more caffeine than most people. I usually have 20omg of caffeine two or three times a day when I’m working. I use those Celcius drink powders: zero calories with an energy blend. Meaningfully less caffeine than that in a serving makes me foggy. Red Bull 90mg of caffeine with sugar is molasses for my soul. I need 200mg caffeine with protein! I start the day with a meal, 200mg caffeine, 200mg CBG, and 300mg Welbutrin XL. I also have low blood pressure, and the caffeine helps me with that when waking up.






  • I left reddit a while ago for Instagram. There’s a lot of art on Instagram, and I enjoy that I can interact with artists there. I also do some personal and professional networking there. But I always missed having a text first space for discussion. And I missed that old school forum feel. It’s been a long time since reddit fulfilled those needs effectively, and Instagram isn’t even trying. I heard about Lemmy when the API exodus happened and decided to give it a shot. So far it’s kept my interest. It has a fun racous forum feel still, and could grow quite a bit yet without losing it.
