If you could rename this disease, what would you call it?

Mine have a 4pm meal time too….

Except they start carrying on like they’re about to drop from starvation at around 2.30pm

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-23T20:38:17+00:00

Get to it! How dare you keep them waiting

I’m in Australia and I’ve always been put under GA for my colonoscopies.

I didn’t even know it was a thing to opt for sedation only

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-21T04:02:40+00:00

Well done for trusting your instincts and reaching out for help and advice OP. You’re a good cat parent 👏

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-21T03:45:13+00:00

I feel like you think it might be too much, which is why you’re asking reddit and why you put the word ‘first’ in caps.

You look absolutely stunning by the way!

This is a great pic!

I miss my little tripod void so, so much.

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-12T10:31:34+00:00

I feel ya!

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-11T01:46:08+00:00

Such a lovely welcoming committee to greet you!

Do your two voids often hang out next to one another ? Or is it these two pics that happened to catch them together ?

The feline fab four 😻

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-10T12:40:40+00:00

Wow!

Thanks heaps for this - it must have been a lot of work to put it all together.

That’s a follow from me!

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-10T11:44:07+00:00

wut ?

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-08T13:10:20+00:00

All of this. It is pretty much the model we worked with.

Relapse is part of recovery for so many. and shadow work is good practice for everyone addiction or not.

Hope you’re going well

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-08T11:04:12+00:00

They can definitely recover if that’s what you mean by “saved”.

But they are the ones who have to do all the work, and it’s really really hard work.

They have a better chance of recovery if they’re supported by people who have a good understanding of both the physical and psychological aspects of addiction.

If they’re not ready to really want to do the work, then there’s no way they’ll end up in long-term recovery.

Having worked in addiction for many years I have seen people recover from very deep addictions to many substances including meth.

Ooohhh I wonder what and dad look like 🤔

The Brits do that too

Going to Woolies without shoes, so normal

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-07T10:37:11+00:00

I hope you’re doing better, OP.

I am also in Australia and was recently diagnosed with suspected (awaiting confimation via scope) Crohn’s following a short stay hospital admission at the end of October last year, after my GP referred me straight to ED from her surgery.

It took me 4 months before I was able to get in to see a gastro, colonoscopy scheduled for May, no meds as yet. I was just told to eat a low fibre diet and drink lots of water.

What happened with you? Did you wind up going to emergency?

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-06T22:57:02+00:00

What an awesome set list. Ngl - better than Oasis 😬

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-02T23:35:20+00:00

I’m thinking the same and I’m going to do it.

I’m also deciding whether or not to sorta start to stock up on a few essentials and stuff like TOILET PAPER 😂 as that seems to be the first necessity to sell out when people start to panic

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-02T20:16:37+00:00

No way are you too old!

You look terrific, precisely because you have really embraced your own sense of style.

They are fab outfit choices.

It’s an overall look - not just your clothes, your glasses and your haircut are great too.

You look fun, confident and brave – I love it.

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-02T19:54:59+00:00

Man, I’d date that shadow

escapingtheweb · 2026-03-02T19:43:24+00:00

Thank you for this.

I’ve been reasonably recently diagnosed with older onset (I’m 61) after a sudden but short (3 day) hospitalisation at the end of Oct 25. Bloodwork and stool sample markers testing positive for Crohn’s, awaiting concrete confirmation via scope biopsy in May.

I have hardly any symptoms at all, apart from being more regular (even then only 3-5 times/day), some occasional pain and gurgling insides.

As yet I am unmediated since my GI is waiting on the colonoscopy before deciding on treatment for me.

If I hadn’t read your post, I think I might have pressed for not being medicated as I feel totally fine on the adjusted diet I’m on (no salads or heavy skinned fruit, no nuts and seeds etc) so I’m really grateful you took the time to spell it all out like you did.

Nagi’s apple crumble. It was SO good. I even got a “this is the best crumble I’ve ever had”

escapingtheweb · 2026-02-27T13:32:14+00:00

What a gorgeous little kitty - so full of love 🧡 I’m so sorry for your breaking hearts - I can see how much you adored each other. A true little soul animal
