Putting my kitty down this afternoon. Almost made it to 20. Very sad. On Xanax though.
Edit: thank you everyone. Heβs gone now. We had an at-home service put him down. He went incredibly peacefully, purring loudly as the first injection went in.
Weβre about to drive him to his brotherβs grave (who died five years ago) and bury him there so they can forever snuggle.
It sounds like you gave your kitty a long, love-filled life. Iβm sorry they canβt be with you longer.
That's so sad...
Thanks for giving your kitty as good a life as you could. Don't let the end cloud your vision from the good times.
If/when you're ready, there are more lost souls to save out there. I wish I could have cats myself, but I am not stable enough to house them. Maybe some day I will foster, but even that is probably to much for me to handle.
Every day I go to all my part time jobs, and they take so much from me that I cannot recover what I've lost before the beginning of my next day of shifts.
Every day, I lose more and more of me. Until one day, there will be nothing left and I will quit one or all of my jobs and be unable to afford housing, and become homeless (again).
Do you live in America ? I've heard stories like this from Americans ... I hope it goes well with you anyway
So excited and so overwhelmed.
We're moving from the US to Denmark soon. We just had a hurricane destroy our city. We are fine, thankfully, but our city is in bad shape. I also just had a decently big surgery a few weeks ago and my doctor's office is gone, so in the midst of all this I have to find a doctor. Just coincidental timing on all of it.
But it's net positive. I look forward to the future more than I dread the bad stuff.
constantly tired
I wish I could work out like I used to when I was unemployed. I know it would give me more energy, but there is nothing left at the end of the day to invest into me and my health.
Whatever, who wants to live a long life anyways? Just more rent payments, more scammers, more assholes in my life.
Hope you get better soon...
Like my life has been stolen from me. I am left with nothing.
Isn't having cancer alone bad enough?
Doin alright. Tired from the work week, happy for the weekend!
That's good to know.... I have the same feelings whenever I go back home from college... like college is good but nothing is cozier or nicer than being able to rest after a busy day
Doing great! π Currently sitting at my desk eating chocolate... π«
We all deserve to thrive, not just survive. Glad to hear you are doing well. Take care.
That's nice , I have pomegranate in the fridge and I was planning to eat it
Currently very silly, im wearing a cute skirt :3
It's been a really long time since I bought / wore a skirt or a dress or even makeup... shame on me really
I currently feel like my nervous system is vibrating having just got out of the gym after preworkout
Since the last bout with COVID and subsequent bronchitis, I'm always exhausted and my lungs seem to hate me. It's slowly improving by the day but that's the worst bout of COVID I've had.
Fully vaxxed, other than the recent one for obvious reason
I too suffer from long covid. I remember a time before when I didn't constantly cough all day. Good times...
Hope you get better soon...
The pain of life does not last forever. We all find peace. For a few, in this life. For the majority, in the next.
Only 40 more years of my shift left on earth and I can know peace for the first and last time.
Excited to go buy a bunch of native plants for the local park :)
That's awesome
On Tuesday I had a panic attack when I got in to work at 9am. It didn't last long, only about 15-20 minutes, but I still don't feel quite right even now. That's usually the case with my panic attacks, it takes a while for me to reset afterwards. Sometimes weeks.
Right now I have this tense feeling in my head, which causes my jaw to tighten up and get an impulsive twitch. Usually seems to happen when I'm feeling anxiety. I have an urge to chew on something soft.
I do not understand the question
Use a translator then
Eh. I have thing going on that I'm looking forward to, trying to keep my head up with things, but right now there's this issue that's putting a shadow over everything.
I try to talk to the person involved, but they've kept at it to this point where I don't want to be around them. I've tried to be gentle about it, but it's like everything I said gets forgotten in a week and I'm the bad person for putting my foot down after.
I think it feels worse because I know what I need to do, but it's going to make a lot of things very difficult, and it's going to take accepting that someone who was very important in my life isn't the person I knew when we reached that point. That neither of us are.
It's the fifth cold I got in a row I feel angry
That's annoying... just the thought of catching a cold is annoying to me : headaches, constant sneezing, heat and such things .... I hope you get better soon
14 years ago. Man they were hard years. Here's to the even worse years that are still to come.
Like Peter Frampton
With my nerves.
Had a pint of blood drawn today. I feel dizzy and heavy and very hot π
Hopeless.
exhausted. physically and mentally. even if i manage to disconnect its never for long enough to recouperate fully
I hope you get better soon
thx. same to you
Bored. I'm out on my anniversary tradition, which is going apple picking.. Except my other half immediately rolled out the picnic blanket and has been sleeping on me for the past hour.
It's sad to think of how the dynamics have changed over the past 10 years between us. It's almost like the brain hamster wheels have all fallen apart and what's left are only the most basic of human functions. It's days like today I wish my country had any kind of worthwhile mental health care.
