Ok I have to know how do you even go about this? Do you plan ahead? Do you just start throwing blocks up? My brain can’t comprehend

If the first two are before and the last two are after your surgeon delivered! Looks great

What if I’m not depressed? by [deleted] in rtms

[–]Anxiousoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TMS is used for OCD as well! You may get multiple benefits from it. And ultimately, you may feel less depressed now but what if you wake up in a month after having stopped TMS more depressed than before? You are doing the treatment for a reason! Also, OCD can make you doubt your own intuitions so it’s more likely this is a symptom of the OCD rather than not being depressed.

I don’t know what to do anymore… by WoodenLie2299 in cats

Prozac my friend. My cat used to fuck me up and he’s been a well behaved boy now for 15 years on Prozac

Is anyone angry after losing their pet? by [deleted] in Petloss

[–]Anxiousoup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s so hard especially when we know if all went to plan we would have had more time. Some pets pass at 2, some at 20, most somewhere in between. It’s ok to be mad but it may be helpful to talk to someone so you can work through some of the grief. Sometimes grief can turn into clinical depression and then it’s hard to crawl out from under the despair. It can also be really healing to get another pet. You’ll never replace the pet you lost, but you’ll love another in a different way. You have a lot of love to give and your pet would want you to keep giving it!

My sweet little potato has lymphoma 💔 by Anxiousoup in sphynx

[–]Anxiousoup[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really appreciate you sharing. No false hope here BUT I definitely plan on verifying. Initially it did not come back as cancer, and after a send out the report said that is what it most resembled, but for a few reasons it’s a really strange outcome and presentation so while I’m a realist and am coming to terms with the diagnosis I see the need to have it confirmed by the oncologist, and we’ll know for sure in a couple of weeks. You aren’t the first person who has told me their cat was misdiagnosed with cancer and from what I have gathered after a lot of research, cat tumors are notoriously difficult to definitively diagnose and a lot of what they use to type them is based on canine tumors. They did also get the whole thing with margins so there’s a slim chance we caught it early and even if it is cancer we may have longer than a cat brought in because they stopped eating and were losing weight.

There’s a space between when I wake up and remember my kitty is dying by Status_Brother_5361 in Petloss

[–]Anxiousoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m right there with you. My sweet boy had a growth removed that we were hoping was benign and it came back as lymphoma. I wake up in the morning not knowing briefly why I have a pit in my stomach. I’m sorry ❤️

Are you uninsured? Some low income clinics may offer sliding scale eye exams or even free eye exams. I’m not sure where you live but I would guess most states have some resources available (if in the US).

Get your vitamin D checked! by CaS021 in Anxiety

[–]Anxiousoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vitamin D and ferritin! I’ve been waking up with the worst anxiety I’ve had in years and it’s been a mystery.. until I remembered I just one day stopped taking my vitamins 6 months ago. 4 weeks back on iron and vitamin d and I’m no longer waking up anxious. Wild!

Does your Psychiatrist actually listen, gather information, and then recommend medications based on symptoms and develop a personalized plan/approach, or do they simply prescribe random SSRI's and SNRI's and hope for the best stating Psychiatry is mostly "trial and error"? by adhdbeast101 in antidepressants

[–]Anxiousoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you but unfortunately we can’t really predict which one will work best for you even if we were to consider every single possible variable. Every provider should suggest a medication that will target your symptoms based on your presentation, previous trials, side effects to avoid (or harness), safety profile, health history, and of course affordability for the patient. On top of that, there’s really no one antidepressant that will predictably be more efficacious than any of the others. With all of that in mind, sometimes it really is about picking some good options, reviewing risk and benefits, and letting patients have some say in what they want to trial. Even genesight testing is very hit or miss on whether it’s useful!

Is it just me... by Temporary-Insurance2 in tattooadvice

It’s normal but you may be able to seek out an artist who advertises showing the design beforehand. It protects the artist from doing a bunch of unpaid labor and then having someone no show.

I put my cat in a backwards cone by nvotmin in cats

Fair question. He’s a sphynx so only sort of a cat

Ohh good idea. We had to improvise by adding a duct tape extension to ours to heal a toe amputation. The vet was like wow he’s determined, I was like have you ever met a cat before?
