At the moment, my skincare routine is pretty much non-existent. Back when I had a schedule and a routine in my every day life, I was actually pretty good at caring for my skin. Doing it enough as part of a routine really helped me. I am currently on sick leave and there’s no stability in my every day life that helps me get into a routine, sadly.

The routine I had was facewash, tonic, and cream.

Before I got my ADHD diagnosis, I went to see my psychiatrist because I suspected I had PMDD, since I only had one week a month where I weren’t depressive and perhaps even a danger to myself. She agreed that I probably have PMDD, but she asked me to take an ADHD test, which is when I got my ADHD diagnosis. Even though PMDD isn’t an official diagnosis in Denmark, she still believed that I probably have it. How we figured out how to avoid my issues with PMDD was just by skipping my periods, by continuing taking my birth control pills without any breaks. This has done wonders for my mental health! No periods, no back aches, and no depressive episodes.

For me, I used to be tired all the time and I needed at least one nap a day. My brain was going so fast in my head and my executive dysfunction was overwhelming so I was just constantly exhausted. I don’t even need naps anymore! And if there is something that I need to do, I do it. At the moment I do feel more lazy, but that’s because it’s warm and humid and I’m not built for that.

Thank you so much!

I didn’t know you could pick more than one language. I’m a fledditor, so still figuring out the ropes around here 😅

I get where you’re coming from, but as someone who enjoys looking at Riker with the beard, I do prefer the trope of “Growing the Beard”.

Yeah, the friend that had convinced herself, that the baby was their’s. That was both creepy and sad.

Fun fact: there’s a trope called “Growing the Beard”, which is the opposite to “Jumping the Shark” wherein there is a dramatic difference between “before and after” through a series run. The trope got its name from Star Trek: NTG after Commander Riker grew out his beard which coincided with a significant improvement of the show, with an increase in quality and the show growing into its own identity.

The one with the mother who had an Entitled Mom tried to grab her baby, because her Entitled Kid wanted to hold her baby was insane. That escalated so quickly!

I’m so happy that ADHD Women are here as well. I didn’t use the sub much over on Reddit. It’s all been a bit overwhelming, so I just wound up on BestOfRedditorUpdates and whatever was on Popular 😅
