PCP that is strongly familiarized in ADHD diagnosis

Hi all, looking to see if anyone has knowledge of doctors in fort lauderdale that have experience with adult adhd patients and diagnosis. I'm finally trying to seek help for myself but I've heard it can be challenging to receive proper diagnosis as an adult due to people trying to get access to Adderall for nefarious reasons. I was hoping to see if anyone has had any luck or experience with a PCP that is knowledgeable and experienced with this that will not have trouble recognizing my symptoms. Thank you in advance. Any advice from people who've gone through this experience is welcomed as well.

Hi folks, looking for a personal trainer that has their own equipment in Fort Lauderdale/Davie area

Hi! I’m trying to get back in shape after becoming sober, a few years of substance abuse have me struggling to get my energy levels and motivation back to normal. I really don’t want to go to a traditional gym, for many reasons, but I would love to have access to free weights equipment and a trainer.

Is that even a thing? Does anyone know a trainer that could fall in that category?

I understand it will be more expensive than usual but I am willing to deal with that.

Thank you!

Beach/good view restaurants that don’t suck?

My wife and I are in town for the boat show and looking for some fun brunch/dinner options. Would be great to have a place with a cool vibe or good beach views, but I know a lot of the restaurants in those areas are tourist traps. Doesn’t have to be super fancy but we like good local food. Thanks!

F trump and you

Why this country always wanna talk down on immigrants but we don’t say anything about white school shooters..? Immigrants aren’t this country biggest problem, white mass shooters is the problem. Trump also wanna ban black history in schools… but we gotta learn about holocaust that got NOTHING TO DO WITH ME. Slavery was longer than what them Jews went thru. We forgot about January 6th?? He said he was gonna build a wall with Mexico money and come to find out only 2% of wall is done and it was done with US CITIZENS TAX DOLLARS. You dumb mfs need to wake up. Give Kamala a chance we already seen what that orange mf do and all he do is lie and divide.

Please - Does anybody have info on a retreat for men? Religious/Spiritual or not.

Hi. This might be a stretch but I'm really hoping someone can help me. I'm looking for some kind of retreat or get together or gathering of men in Fort lauderdale with the goal of giving a young black man (30M) some male support and guidance. I think he would prefer a black support group but please feel free to offer any recommendations. He does not have any male mentors and is going through some shit right now and I am a woman and he only has women around him and I don't know what to do. I think it would be best if he had a spiritual or good group of men, older men, he could talk to or lean on.

Does anybody have any kind of recommendation? Thank you in advance.

BYOG (Bring your own grill) any beaches in Broward

Wanted to go to the beach with the fam this week, nothing major just 3 of us. Is there any beach where bringing a portable grill is prohibited? I know most beaches have their own grill but I don’t want to get there early to claim one and want to use my own that I use for tail gating. Wanted to go to either Hollywood or Fort Lauderdale but don’t want to get kicked off of beach.

Any labor jobs hiring?

Hey guys, I am college student looking for labor work I can do in my free time (pool cleaning, boat cleaning, etc etc). I’m strong and prefer to do something physical rather than working in a Starbucks or something.

If anyone knows of any decent job opportunities in the area that are part time please let me know.

Where to buy used/very cheap tires?

Just what the headline says. I need two tires as cheap as I can get them. I am nearly broke, but one tire is threadbare. I need someone honest. Thanks for any recommendations.

Dressing up for Halloween in downtown Fort Lauderdale?

Everyone, so for some reason never in my life have I gone to downtown Fort Lauderdale on Halloween, but I am this year. Do people dress up in costumes going to clubs?

So I was planning on dressing up as Alan from the hangover. With the shirt, the white pants and the glasses.
