Hey this is Larry. I'm getting my pod-cast going. I don't know where I'll go with it, but I've been talking about it so now I'm doing it. I'll focus on topics associated with a few things important to me: Mental Health, Routine, Fitness, DIY project, current Affairs, some History, and my constantly evolving / sometimes expensive interests. Lets get to it.

    This is a one off, but I couldn't resist. I had to talk about it. Suicide is hard on everyone. If it's on your mind, hit me up. We've all been there.  Talk to your friends. Keep a look out for the signs. If someone says the world might be better off with out them, assure them it wouldn't be. This isn't a time for criticism, these people need us. No soldier left behind doesn't end on the battlefield. Check your buddy.  -Larry Contrary

    Maybe this was something everyone knew but me. When we start taking a new medication it's important that we try to remain as neutral as possible. Avoid sugars, caffeine, alcohol, etc. for a few weeks. I know it isn't ideal. Adding supplements which alter the effect of the drug will not permit us to get a true assessment of the medication's intended effect. Doing otherwise could result in a lot of headache and repetitious treatment variations.

    Real talk, it isn't cool to call people names. I get that you're upset. The problem with it, is when you call someone an anything-aphobe, it perpetuates the stigma in mental health. For there are people who have actual phobias who have a very difficult time in life. I'm sure your intentions are well. It just isn't very productive.

    FIRST PODCAST! I've done it. I've reached Dad- status. My name's Larry and I'm a Father, Husband, and a generally really down to earth person... Totally kidding. This is my introduction to the future state of this podcast. My over-all intent is to reach normal guys and talk about some of the things I struggle with, like ADD and PTSD in a competitive global job-market. I am not a life coach. I am not original; who is anymore? I like to think I'm quirky enough to be mildly entertaining while closing a gap in the dialogue about stigmas as they relate to mental health. It isn't all boring life hacks and pro-tips. Sometimes I might take you on a fun journey of non-sequential pontification with no particular strategy. Welcome to ADD. I don't wear ADD as a badge for attention. This is real shit affecting real people and so many around them. I am genuinely concerned that people are still going through all the things I've felt and that is terrifying. TAGS: ADD, ADHD, PTSD, Adult ADD, PODCAST, Coping, motivation, meditation, focus, train your brain, ADD is a superpower, starting the dialogue, killing the stigma Let's talk. -LC
