The therapy take is that this feeling comes about because you grew up in an environment where it wasn't emotionally/physically safe for you to relax. Even as an adult with well managed/medicated ADHD, the subconscious parts of your brain are still trying to protect you, so no relaxation allowed. imo, this is extra common in ADHD folk because even parts of our own brains were mad at us for not having executive function.

In particularly bad cases, this can rise to the level of being C-PTSD. Feeling unable to relax is a big indicator that whatever is going on in your head needs to be addressed. Therapy is expensive, but there's ways to get it covered by insurance, especially if you have an ADHD diagnosis.

Truly curious: do you fit the description of a young, female, middle American?

Agreed. Here's my unsolicited rewrite

That's an interesting idea. Do you write a blog or something where I can learn more?

Kindness is also hard (and takes practice). I believe in both of our abilities to keep improving!

In an environment where old men cling to every drop of power and control they can get, I'm super proud of Biden for putting his ego aside and doing what's best for the country he loves

Being "used to" something and being "ashamed" are mutually exclusive, so I'm having a difficult time understanding your overall point or position

I think it's reasonable that you chose that title based on the email header, and I also think it's very irresponsible of haveibeenpwned to send out an email with that subject line. They absolutely should know better.

"Breached" implies that sensitive data, like payment details, private communication, or physical addresses, were leaked. Instead, this is just semi-public stuff like email/username/name. Maybe a better title would be "15M Trello users have been identified (name/email)"

I've been very happy with my Nvidia Shield. It's powerful enough for all 4k HDR media and runs Android so it's customizable but I don't have to think about it.
