you're too nice 

i'm learning the basics slowly, like I said I just figured out how to open the piano roll after I made that

but i'll be putting a half hour or hour into it most days if my plan goes as planned

i'll be doing the same with drawing & japanese once I get adderall (wish it wasn't taking so long  )

I've been debating getting on adderall lately. I'm just worried about potential side effects.

I already have prior diagnosis for ADD so I could easily be given it. The main side effects I saw were Weight Loss, Loss of Appetite and Trouble Sleeping, which are all either benefits or negligible for me.

But it's taking months to get on medical aid.

Oh well I don't really sleep well currently and could use losing a few pounds...

Same actually. I think the big thing is that it just feels kind of weird going in to my doctor and being like "hey give me drugs," you know?

I know. But I am still going to. I've done it in the past for Depression, Anxiety, and other diagnoses i've had in the past, but none of those have fixed my issues. So for me it's just narrowing down the issue and knowing what I want. I have no history of drug abuse, my mother works at the clinic as a nurse and has the same diagnosis as me so i'm not just some weird druggie trying to get a prescription, so they don't really have any reason to say no.

And if they look down on me it doesn't really matter if I improve

feeling when adderall / amphetamine is almost illegal here

Drugs won't dig you out of a hole of depression nor anxiety that shit not that hard to overcome. Just kinda change the way you think of everything as a negative and just let the good times roll!

....

Clinical Depression isn't the sort of thing you just "get over". I just don't think that was my issue.

Still, that sort of thinking of "Jeez, just stop being sad, dummy!" is what leads to hopeless feelings of being unable to approach anyone about issues and leads to shit like suicide. Actual, medical 'Depression' is considered a MENTAL ILLNESS for a reason. It's not the same as being blue for a few days.

(I don't mean to come across as rude or something just saying)

I'll probably try and see the doctor before long. The only meds I'm on is for tics and they said it "could" help with ADD as well but I'm not noticing anything.

Yeah he was obviously the one who wasn't being mean or pitious or having an ulterior motive, he was just trying to help in the way he knew how and then told him it'd be okay, nice guy all around

It really was sweet in a weird backwards kind of way.

Like he was uneducated on the matter but he was trying and it was genuine.
