I feel like this is at least tangentially connected to self hosting, so I’m asking here. I’m interested in finding a cloud provider to host my own Lemmy server (similar to what Masto.host does with Mastodon). I’ve been looking around for all the different options available, and I haven’t found many. Communick.com and...
Absolutely, yes. I almost always try the newest networks/apps because I like to see for myself whether I think they’re going to be a hit and/or worthwhile.
I realized after posting that my initial reply may have sounded snarky, and that wasn’t my intention. I’m a cross country and track coach, and the reality is that, like it or not, part of my job is ensuring the team has a visible social media presence. I feel an obligation to at least attempt to stay on top of what services people are using the most at any given time.
For those of you who weren’t diagnosed until adulthood (I’m in my late 40s), what was the diagnosis process like? Are you just given a written test, or does someone evaluate you more thoroughly? Do they try to understand your symptoms, or is it more of a checklist? If anyone has personal stories they’d be willing to share,...
I was diagnosed about 7-8 years ago, and I was in my early/mid 30s at the time. I was referred to a specialist by my pcp, and they started out by asking me some questions about my symptoms and whatnot. The final thing I had to do was take this computerized test thing that involved looking at a screen while doing some simple stuff. There were cameras that tracked my eye movement to determine how long I was appearing to focus on what I was supposed to be looking at (versus anywhere else on the screen or in the room). Afterwards, we talked about what meds/dosage to start out with. For the first 6 months or so I was going in almost monthly to adjust my dosage and/or switch meds entirely. Once we found something that worked, I started going in every 2-3 months to check in. Overall, not an unpleasant experience.
Vyvanse is what I ended up on, and it worked wonders. I actually had to stop cold turkey a week ago while my doctor figures out why I have high blood pressure, and it’s been a pretty rough week. I kind of forgot how much of a help the Vyvanse was for my daily quality of life.
