So, I'm just starting Adderall XR and I know that side effects are unavoidable, but I was wondering what are indicators that this medication isn't working? This is my first time on any ADHD meds, so I have nothing to compare it to.

How did it go? There are a few different things; the wrong medication can change your personality (make you feel flat), or it can make you really hyper and “sped up,” or it can give you really nasty side effects, or it can have literally no effects whatsoever. In general, if you don’t like what it’s doing, you should talk to your doctor about it and ask to try something else or a different dose.

Ritalin was my first medication i was put on, at first it was fine until my dose was increased. I started having more anxiety than usual, and there was this overwhlming urge to hurt my wrist(i never actually cut thankfully) I didnt even realise it was the medication until a friend pointed it out to me. So my advice is to take note of how you feel when you are on medication vs when you arent.

Does anyone else know this ‘autopilot’-feeling? It happens to me all the time, and not only with monotonous or repetitive tasks.

It’s not like the “usual” daydreaming/zoning out where you get distracted by a thought and slowly stop whatever you’re doing and just sit there and stare into the distance, but more like an inner change in self-awareness (idk how else to say it) because I keep doing whatever I’m doing, even complex tasks, while my mind wanders off.

For instance, I’m writing a text or answering emails and I suddenly realize that I’ve been thinking about something completely unrelated for the past two minutes but somehow managed to send two emails without consciously thinking about it? It kinda feels like someone else did it FOR me while I was busy daydreaming and although it’s not actually a bad thing, it does creep me out sometimes.

I’ve had this happen, usually with driving (highway, few cars thank goodness). It feels like dissociation.

Anyone else?

I have had this too, maybe not with emails but i will be working on the computer or playing a video game while in deep thought and all of a sudden things are done. Its not as frequent and always short moments for me. I thought this happens to everyone, or maybe its an adhd thing?

how to schedule your time (ft. Plan)

requested by anon ; web app featured is Plan

Plan is essentially a digital planner where todos and events are drag/drop, so it’s convenient and easy to make adjustments.

i swear this isn’t sponsored, although it sounds like it ha. i love this site. the app is in beta though, so you have to be on a computer to use it.

there’s a daily, weekly, and monthly view, but I use the daily view most.

you can sync with your Google calendar so all your events are already on the calendar.

every day, after i settle in at my study space, i open Plan

i add my todos / school assignments in the task bar at the top of the daily view.

then, on the timetable, i click to add events for pre-scheduled dinner time, preparing for sleep, etc.

from there, i drag and drop in my assignments into the timetable where I have free time.

adjust assignment times. for e.g., my bio review packet might take 45 minutes while french hw might take 15 minutes.

i move assignments around until nothing overlaps, and –

don’t forget to schedule breaks! i just leave some spaces empty on the timetable.

when you finish an assignment, you can click the check and IT CROSSES OUT and i feel a c c o m p l i s h e d !!

also it’s so much much much much easier than physically writing it down, because everything is drag/drop and adjustable. say, if I take 30 minutes longer than expected on an essay, I can push everything else back by 30 minutes and still be able to have everything in order.

ALSO!!! at the end of the day, i can look back to see what i’ve accomplished that day. it’s a great feeling honestly

sorry this was kinda short! it’s getting late and i might have forgotten some things :/ send an ask if it’s confusing!!!

xo, kt

Death takes no pleasure in his job, but it is a job that must be done.

Apparently my director went to see a production of West Side Story a few years ago, and the guy playing Chino forgot his gun before coming out for his final scene. Once it got to the big scene where he is supposed to shoot Tony, he screeched “Poison Boots” and kicked the actor playing Tony until he went down. The girl playing Maria then had to jerk the shoe off of Chino’s foot, and had to do the gunshot scene asking “How many kicks Chino? How many kicks, and one kick left for me”.

There should be a blog dedicated to theatrical urban legends. Like that opening weekend of Dracula where Dracula (still hungover) vomited all over the audience during the first stage direction that everyone has a friend of a friend that worked on the show and was there.

best story i heard was when a friend of mine saw a show where juliet forgot to bring the dagger out on stage so she just ripped the squib out of her chest and blood squirted everywhere

During a passion play a friend of my brother was supposedly in, one of the roman soldiers who was supposed to stab jesus on the cross and accidentally grabbed the wrong spear- he was supposed to grab one with a fake tip, but instead he grabbed one with an actual metal tip and, well

Jesus screamed “JESUS CHRIST YOU STABBED ME”.

Since that Jesus had to be taken down due to a bad case of stab-itis, the backup Jesus came in, but he weighed significantly less than the original Jesus- which would have been fine, except that at the end the cross was supposed to ascend upwards with Jesus on it, and the weights hadn’t been adjusted.

So Jesus, instead, ROCKETED UP into heaven (or, just, above the stage).

I was in Peter Pan once and one night at a performance, the adhesive holding our Hook’s mustache on was wearing off. It was near the end with a big fight scene and when he got attacked, he let his mustache fall and went “YOU RIPPED MY MUSTACHE OFF!” in a scandalized tone and it added a new note of hilarity to the whole scene (which was supposed to be funny anyway)

My junior year we were doing Romeo and Juliet and after Juliet poisons herself it was supposed to go dark and she’d get off the stage. well the light crew accidentally turned them back on and Juliet who was sitting up slammed back down on the wooden bed with a loud bang. To which my theater teacher says into the com “zombie Juliet” and everyone who heard that had to keep as quiet as possible while our eyes were filling with tears.

i attended my county’s performing arts high school majoring in vocal studies, (mostly geared towards musical theater and opera styles) and once a year we got a field trip to new york (we were in jersey, so it’s not exactly far). we would do one touristy thing, an actor’s workshop with friends of our teachers working in various performing industries in nyc, and then see a show.

my first year doing this, our industry contacts were 1 actor, 1 casting director, and 1 producer to get different aspects of the business, and they all gave us amazing advice and told fantastic stories. the actor in question was Zazu on Broadway’s The Lion King for several years, and told the best story by far.

in The Lion King, there are only two pieces of pre-recorded noise in the whole show. one, when Pumbaa does a MASSIVE fart while fighting the hyenas, and the other being Mufasa saying REMEMBERRRRRR as Simba climbs Pride Rock. the actor told us while struggling not to laugh that, during one night’s performance, someone forgot to flip the tape of these pre-recorded noises.

so, at the end of the show, the great climax where Simba finally accepts his place in the Circle of Life, the heavens parted and-

PFFFFFFFFFRRRRRBTFTBTBFTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

everyone froze. and then all ran off stage positively HOWLING with laughter.

the lesson: sometimes there are fuck ups you just can’t recover from.

During a high school production of Beauty and the Beast, where I was assistant costumer and assistant prop master, our director decided that we needed to spice up Gaston’s introduction. You know: in the movie, when Lefou runs in trying to catch the duck/goose that Gaston has just shot out of the sky?

Originally, the actors were going to stroll on stage with our Lefou hauling in the really neat (and real!) taxidermied deer head that we had found in a local thrift store. Now, two days before opening night, our director wants Lefou to run in from off stage and catch a stuffed duck that Gaston has just shot. This, of course, requires two things to work properly as a scene: a gunshot noise, and a stuffed duck.

The gunshot noise, we had covered. Blue-collar, redneck school? Guns a plenty to record. The stuffed duck? Harder than you might have thought to obtain.

Three hunting stores, two taxidermists, and one Pet Supply Store ™, I’d finally found a semi-realistic pheasant squeaky toy. What follows is an account of the ways this dog toy managed to be the nightmare prop of the six show run.

Opening Night: The stagehand, who was supposed to drop the bird from the ceiling catwalk, missed his cue and didn’t drop the it. Lefou’s actor rolls with it and does an excellent job of looking around foolishly before getting cuffed upside the head by Gaston. The stagehand then drops the bird squarely on Gaston’s head. Cue laughter.

Saturday Matinee: Different stagehand throws the bird instead of dropping it and beans Lefou directly in the face with the prop. Lefou falls over. Cue laughter.

Saturday Night: Bird is missing during curtain call. Director hauls the deer head down from it’s place on the tavern wall and tells Gaston and Lefou to revert to the old blocking i.e. no gunshot, no bird, just walk in with trophy. During Gaston and Lefou’s conversation, gun shot sound goes off and a stagehand throws the bird onto the stage…from the wrong side of the stage. Lefou and Gaston stare at it in awkward silence for a solid thirty seconds before Lefou makes off-script, subtle joke about Gaston’s gun going off late instead of early. Cue adults in the audience laughing.

Sunday Matinee: Director begs the stagehands to get the cue right at least once. Gunshot and bird prop go off without a hitch. Lefou accidentally catches the prop when it falls from the catwalk. He’s so startled that he caught it that Gaston runs right in to him. They drop both the gun and the bird props, and grab the wrong prop in their scramble. Gaston spends the rest of the scene gesturing dramatically with a stuffed pheasant, instead of a gun.

Sunday Night: Director is fed up with bird prop, decides that Lefou should just carry bird prop in after gunshot happens off stage. Lefou accidentally squeezes the prop during the intro conversation, startling both actors into silence with the squeaky toy noise - apparently, neither of them realized it was a dog toy.

Monday Elementary School Show: Lefou walks on stage with the bird. Accidentally drops the prop during conversation with Gaston. Gaston doesn’t notice the dropped prop and steps on it. Cue depressingly sad squeaky toy noise. Cue ten years olds laughing.

In a dress rehearsal for Peter Pan, Wendy forgot one of her lines and started singing the star spangled banner and the audience was singing along and people got emotional

les-etoiles-de-la-boxe

Once during the closing night of our high school production of south pacific, we were havin our pre-show pep talk, and our director reminded everyone (mostly seniors) not to go off script to try to be funny. Of course we had one lead who decided to ignore this advice. So during one scene where the sailors were “fishing” at the edge of the stage, he decides to pull up his rubber fish, make a comment about how it wasn’t big enough, and throw it back into the “ocean”, which of course, was the audience. Now, this probably wouldn’t have been too much of a problem if he had gently tossed it, since it would have landed right behind the pit. But naturalt, he decided that this fish had to break free in the most dramatic way possible, so he winds up and chucks this fucking foot-long rubber fish with all of his strength. So now imagine the stage crew, all of us huddled together, silently screaming as this limp fish goes sailing over the heads of the audience in what looks like a low-budget reenactment of free willy, only to slap some poor parent across the face. I swear, you could almost hear the chorus of “mmmm whatcha saaayyy” rising from all those backstage. From that moment on, all rubber fish were ferociously guarded by yours truly, under the direction of our stage manager.

My Junior year of high school our drama club put on Peter Pan,which involved the construction of a small boat fashioned out of scrap wood,plaster and an old wagon. A few of the actors who were cast as pirates had to ride the boat-wagon down the aisle to the front of the theatre,which had a concrete floor that sloped. About halfway down the brake they were using to control their speed gave out,and they crashed into the front of the stage at high speed.The entire boat imploded. The actors just sat there in silence for at least a full 10 seconds in the midst of the wreckage before my friend Adena screamed “ABANDON SHIP” and they all jumped out and took off running.

My school once did a parody of Cinderella and I was Cinderellas dog. At one point Cinderella, the Fairy Godmother, and the dog had to flea the ball. I thought going down the stage steps wasn’t dramatic enough for “fleeing” so I launched myself off the stage and landed painfully in the center isle about three rows in accompanied with a very, very loud thump of face on concrete where I laid there like a dead fish for a while. At this point Cinderella and the Fairy Godmother got to me, not knowing what to do they stepped over me and continued running. But Cinderella had forgotten to loose her shoe so half way out of the room she chucked it back where it hit me in the head. I bolted upright and ran shrieking hysterically out of the room. A moment later the Prince came down to where the shoe was picked it up, looked dramatically at where I had exited and said “I hope that dog’s okay.” completely forgetting his line.

I was once in a production of “Hello Dolly!” and the two leads were complete jokers and would prank each other during rehearsals all the time. The rest of the cast never thought they would do that during a show, but they told the chorus (separately) that they each were planning to add some tongue into the final kiss between Dolly and Horace. Of course, we told neither of them about the other’s plan, so during the very last show, we were all waiting in the wings to see what would happen. What happened was we ended the show with the two leads violently frenching each other on stage as the curtain dropped. They started dating two weeks later.

Last year we did “Once Upon a Mattress” and the jester was supposed to do a somersault off of a stack of like 3 mattresses and then the minstrel and Lady Larken would be covered up with a blanket, but during one show the jester knocked down one of the mattresses and we had no time to fix it so we had to throw the mattress on top of them

Oh wow. This is really lovely and strange. Brilliant use of reflection here, making these tiny objects take on a larger and more mysterious second life.

There is a friend of mine on here, she is 32 and it genuinely disturbs me the way people treat her age.

The level of ageist misogyny is unreal, people trying to dig at her and imply her life must be awful because she is 32 and… Uses social media?

Like, what kind of weird-ass Logan’s Run shit is this? You turn 30 and you’re supposed to, what? Close down all your social media accounts, except Facebook where you are only allowed to post wine mum jokes and minion memes?

The age of a woman is often used against her like a weapon and it seems very evident that women over a certain age (apparently it’s around 30) are supposed to disappear, or stop having opinions.

The fact she is a woman of that age with strong opinions and a strong social media presence is somehow used to imply she is lesser, unworthy, unsatisfied, sad, lonely, desperate.

It’s fucking mind blowing. Meanwhile these tools will listen to 43 year old men on the internet complain about undersized anime tits or whatever else THEY deem to be important.

41 here. There’s no magical switch that’s activated on some random birthday that deactivates all the stuff I’ve always enjoyed, and suddenly makes all the stereotypical middle-aged woman bullshit seem appealing.

I reblogged this already but I didn’t comment. I’m 46, and this ain’t Logan’s Run. Which I saw on TV when it first aired, by the way. I’ve been a geeky fan since I was a child, raised by my geeky fan GRANDMOTHER who watched Star Trek, Doctor Who, and Battlestar Galactica faithfully. She was the one who called me up and said “cee, have you been watching the X-Files? You need to watch this show.” I repaid her by bringing her VHS tapes of Babylon 5. (and Forever Knight, which I still love even though it was total cheese.) She was a fan UNTIL SHE DIED, at age 76. Y'all can sit down and meditate on this: Do I really think I have to stop enjoying what I enjoy when I turn a certain age? Why is that the correct thing to do? Am I willing to give up what I love because “they” say i’m pathetic for enjoying it? What am I going to suddenly decide to like when I turn that age, so I can be “Age-appropriate?” And then you go ahead and do whatever you decide, but I’m going to be a fangirl until I die.

I am literally older than the invention of AstroTurf. One of the nifty things about being older is that I can do whatever the hell I want.

And I do.

So you’ll probably have to get over it when you see me at a Supernatural convention, or wearing a AKF t-shirt. My memory is going, but the last time I checked, this was still a free country, and Tumblr a free space for everyone to enjoy.

Whippersnappers…

I’m 46 and my blog is very niche oriented. But that doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy all y'all. I finally wear all the geeky t-shirts. I make jokes about the god particle. My lost son after meeting me was most impressed that I out nerded him. Being older only adds richness to my appreciation of the enduring enthusiasm generated on social media.
