I’ve also found it helpful to type the surname into the email address bar. When it autocompletes you’re more likely to notice if the first name is wrong.
It is easy, if you’re in a hurry, to start typing the first name and send it to the wrong David etc.

Reply to LPT: clean your stovetop after using the oven. The heat loosens grime for easy removal by Cando232
Also, if you have an electric stove where the burners stay hot for a while, add some water and a drop of detergent to the pan you cooked with and put it back on the burner. You end up with "free" hot water to wash that pan, and it loosens anything stuck to the bottom.

Is it a disorder if it works?

If you come up to me and ask me what's my birthday, my first and probably only response will be, "why?"

LPT: Invest 23 seconds of your life after each cooking to wipe your stovetop clean and there won't ever be any grime that needs loosening.

What I do is immediately type gibberish into the address line after adding the recipients. Outlook will then not be able to send the email even if you accidentally hit send because it won't recognize "gsudjfrjdjfjjt" as a recipient address/entity.
I assume it's similar for other email applications.

>haven't tried a heavy dosage like you suggested yet though!
i'm not exactly suggesting it, i was just stating it. 😂
being hesitant about that just means you're cautious, which you should be taking any meds. definitely research it. i'm a lucky one, low doses work great for me.
i know some people are brand name loyal but i've never noticed any difference with melatonin personally.
you could also try zquil gummies if the melatonin doesn't work itself. it's got melatonin in them but it's got some other stuff that helps sleep. they're pretty non-habit forming, i was taking them for awhile and then just stopped one day, wasn't a big deal.

thank you for the quick response!
I have tried taking it earlier before, it just doesn't do anything when i sleep then :(
haven't tried a heavy dosage yet though! I got a little spooked when it just made me wake up from a nightmare after 2 hours a coupon times. like it just seemed to make things worse for me. I wonder if different brands of melatonin make a difference.
if you or anyone has experienced something similar and got it to work please let me know :)

yea, that was my thinking. i'm only going by my wife and kid but if they don't sleep well they are completely scatterbrained the next day.
i use melatonin if i'm wide awake and it's too late to be wide awake. i've read other users having to take wildly varying dosages to get any effect. sometimes only a tiny amount (.3-.5mg) helps people, then there's other people popping like 10mg. seems like a very trial and error/everybody's different type of med.
best to take it a few hours before bed and not at bed time in my experience.

Just no. Either you're going to come across as weird for wanting to know their age and birthday together, or you're gonna come across as someone who thinks they're too dumb to know what you're doing.
Either way, it's gonna be more offensive than just simply asking them to remind you when their birthday is.

melatonin for adhd? do you just mean to help sleep so you're less forgetful? for some reason melatonin doesn't work for me at all. I tried taking it a few times, it just makes me wake up in 2 hours and it didn't help me fall asleep any faster.

If the end is better than the means then yes?
