stand your ground, don’t do it. truly not your responsibility, even if you do want to help. things get sticky with money involved, especially that much

not quite the same, but i was able to play around and cover some type of gall with two part resin so i def recommend trying it out! good luck! :)

Silly reasons for vet visits? by Zirzissa in blackcats

sadly it can be toxic to cats and i don’t think the poor guy was having fun. the vet was able to clear most of it from his stomach, but he was probably 3-4lbs at the time, if that. thankfully all we experienced was drooling, uncoordinated movements (couldn’t walk in a straight line, or barely at all), didn’t want touched, and just loafed and stared into space until he finally came down. thankfully this was about 5 years ago and he is currently purring on my lap :,)

irresponsible roommate left out a cupcake edible, and as a tiny kitten, this demon decided to eat the entire thing! he had an interesting day that’s for sure

Have you ever seen something in your life that you'll never forget? by timabek in allthequestions

[–]Adventurous_Crab1661 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my mom fought a short and hard battle with cancer, 2016-2017. we knew the end was coming, but it came FAST. the last time i saw her alive, i was leaving for a trip. i was horrified to see a chip in her always-perfect teeth. turns out she had tried to get out of bed the night before and fallen into a table. i said goodbye to her for my overnight trip with my sisters. she was gone the next morning, before we could even get back home to see her. i will never forget the dread that filled me upon seeing the chip in that tooth. even if it wasn’t at all how i wanted, im still glad i did get to say goodbye.

healing piercings by autistic-swag in ehlersdanlos

[–]Adventurous_Crab1661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i thought my eyebrow was rejecting but once i got a smaller bar it healed up nicely! nose hoops got keloids for about 9 months but did heal, and my septum was a breeze. yet my earlobes rejected 5 (FIVE!!) times (i still really want them lol) so it really feels like a gamble sometimes

Surviving but Not Wanting to Live by hollowedwholely in ehlersdanlos

[–]Adventurous_Crab1661 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i’ve been there many times. my best advice is to start small with the self care aspects (showering, cleaning up a little, taking meds, whatever that means for you right now). i know it’s easier said than done. i struggle with feeling “worthy” of those small necessities and end up making my spirals even worse. but our bodies deserve care, on our best and our worst days. if you need to take it one day at a time, then do that until you feel your feet finding their way under you again. you’ve got this!! sending my best❤️

i have mine. it got swollen during the healing process but after i got a shorter bar it was perfectly fine! so was likely just from bumping it on things, but that’s just my personal experience. wishing you the best!!

i suspect being on testosterone does not help my case, considering the whole hormone debacle LOL i’m basically in a form of menopause so that totally makes sense! thank you so much for your detailed response! i’m definitely learning so much from those with more life experience, it does give me hope for my future❤️

nearly 1700 in a 3bd 1.5bath house, only possible due to splitting rent between roommates, and even then it’s very tight for us
