I’ve seen suggestions of a link between ADHD and restless leg syndrome in the past, but that was many years ago. Checking Wikipedia’s RLS page now it states up to 44% of people with ADHD also have RLS.

I did have issues with it as a child, but was able to get it under control in early adulthood. Although around the same period I also started on Strattera and anti-anxiety medications - so maybe that helped sort it out.

I noticed it says placebos to be very effective, maybe you can get some of those OTC 😆

I can’t help but feel this is a bit of a stretch.

So in England and Australia, does “Labour” mean fascist?

This is great news for anxious mice everywhere… which I assume is most all mice.

Don’t really care one way another about the appearance, but I’d definitely give them a go if they dropped Android as their OS.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but god damn I hate all the massive strollers. It’s like the strategies of the North American auto companies and their massive trucks has spread to strollers. These stroller wagons are truly the Hummers of this phenomenon.

Yeah, Doom 63 was impossibly difficult.

We have plans more extensive than that. They are random scribbles that take up at least half that notepad.
