I am officially diagnosed with ADHD combined type! After waiting so long for my appointment and feeling so anxious that I was somehow wrong about it, it’s a huge relief. I get to try medication and looking forward to the bonus weightloss that comes from it lol

bonus weightloss that comes from it

I’m on day 3 of starting my meds and I feel like the loss of appetite is real. Like, I used to forget to eat at regular times because of the ADHD, now I’m not eating that much because of the ADHD meds. I could barely finish half of my dinner last night and as of 1pm today I’ve had half a banana.

Oh damn, it really is hitting you hard. For me it hasn’t been too bad overall, my appetite seemed to not be too impacted, but I’m wondering if it’s the low dose I’ve started on.

god that was weird, I had to call Daycare back about something. I called and introduced myself with full name. They go “Who sorry?” I repeat, a few seconds of silence and I go “I’m X’s Dad” “Ooooooh, X’s dad, hang on a second I’ll find who called you”. I think its the first time I’ve said I’m someone’s dad out loud. it has a very sobering effect.

There was a cat sitting on the side fence yowling during the night. Mr Ps bedroom is that side, so he scared it off by poking the rubber chicken toy out the window and gave it a few good honks 😂

We have had problems with yowling cats, and I’m going to steal this idea and buy a rubber chicken. Genius!

incoming rant. Vulgar language may be used.

Yesterday I noticed that Coles flatbread has gone up a buck from $3 to $4. That’s 16.66666666667c increase per wrap. It’s flour and water! I only buy it because it’s made fresh right before my eyes so if you’re reading this Coles you can go and lick my old man’s left testicle you fucking bottom dwelling scabs. Yeah I’m dirty. I hope Santa brings you a big bag of farts ya scumbags.

The End

I think you could get a job writing rants. That was top notch.

It’s just price gouging at this point. I wish Aldi was more accessible for me.

We normally get lebanese bread (made that day) for $1.60 for 5 but sometimes it’s nice to mix it up. I’m seriously thinking about making my own.

I’m looking for something lower joule to swap out but most wraps are small or thin, or expensive, or all three. Leb bread is such an all rounder in my diet.

I’m with you. Bloody Woolworths rises their homebrand soft drinks to 1.10.

Original they were about 69 or 75 cents.

Pretty soon it’ll be double the original price.
