So quite a bit has happened in the last few days. I had a long talk with my roommate on Sunday and decided that I was going to slow up a little bit on the trading front. For one I am really behind, or at least in comparison. He does put in 5x the amount of hours, so that’s not super surprising. I also wasn’t enjoying it all that much as it was, so I wanted to do it more on my own pace and also create something myself. I know recreating the wheel is silly, but it would create utility that would outweigh other things. So this week I have been waking up at reasonable hours and spending more time with poker related things.
I didn’t mention in my last post by accident but I did end up seeing a psychiatrist and getting Adderall. It was super sketch getting it. I just walked in, talked with the woman for like 5 minutes, she got some physical/mental history from me, and then just asked what meds I wanted. Totally not what I was envisioning, and tbh, not exactly what I wanted either…but w/e. Finally got my script filled today and took a little this afternoon. Works wonderfully, and it was amazing to focus like that. If that is what normal people feel like when focusing I am 100% jealous. The effects wore off a bit faster than I wanted them to, so I might layer tomorrow. We shall see what works best.
I have been doing great lately with my lists. I start each day writing my list of things to get done and feel insanely accomplished at the end of every day because of it. It also helps because then I have clear-cut things that need to be taken care of, so I am falling off task less often. The last few days have mostly been little things like bills and junk, and today I got some Xmas shopping started. Finished up my secret santa thing for 2p2 which felt good, and I think the person will enjoy what I got them. Sucks that I had to go over money the limit with shipping, but whatever, lol.
I also got put on the calendar for Stox this month, so I got started on some scripting for those videos. I have 2 videos due, and I am doing one for sure on HUD usage. This may seem like a no brainer for some of you, but I assure you there are a lot of people underusing this super important tool. The other video I am not entirely sure on yet. Any suggestions? Feels good to get back and doing some vids for them as I believe it has been about 9mo since I’ve done a video (but it feels like 2months given how quickly this damn year has gone by, lol). So hopefully I will finish video 1 tomorrow and then crank the other one out when I get back east.
Alright, I need sleep. Hope all is well with everyone
*SS*
Some types of adderall are taken twice a day and there are also extended release that only have to be taken in the morning, so make sure you know what kind you are on!
Oh of course…I have IR and am shorting the dosage just to make sure my body accepts it well. So far so good =)
