You know I thought about deleting my account, but with a combination of nostalgia and the hope that some of my comments would still be useful led me to decide to just leave it in stasis.

So far, pretty much everything I’ve posted on Lemmy has been new OC, but I think I’ll start scraping and reposting some of my old reddit posts eventually.

I used to comment a lot more than I would post back on Reddit, but I’ve been putting in an effort to try to build up communities here, both my own and others. So I’ve been scraping all my old pictures to find useful content, and as a result, have more posts than comments.

Oh cool, I’d love to see your photos.

As much as I’m biased towards pretty pictures, posts about life in the desert are also welcome.

I’ve got relatives in Phoenix, and I was alarmed to learn that checking your shoes for scorpions before putting them on is standard procedure for them!

Is there a way you can try to get on Vyvanse? You sound a lot like where I was at 6 months ago (constant burnout, never able to recharge, executive disfunction with every task).

It took a couple tries to find a therapist who would listen to me (and hearing the horror stories, I know I was fortunate), but being on Vyvanse has been night and day. It has its downsides and isn’t some miracle drug, but it’s allowed me to get to a place where I don’t feel like I’m constantly drowning.
