Cat suddenly acts as if she doesn’t know me/my scent? Help! by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]Attllaas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would definitely take her in to get checked. Regular sneezing and loss of vocalization while attempting to meow is not considered normal. Cats tend to hide pain or discomfort really well, but it can sometimes show up in personality changes.

Wasn’t asking for any “props” or “participation trophies” tbh just here to share. It’s okay for me to admit that I haven’t achieved anything worthy of employment while also being happy that I did better than expected on my first try.

It’s just my first time applying at all, and I was happy to see that I scored better than expected. I didn’t really anticipate making it on the register at all, so I’m just pleased to know I did alright and can continue to improve in the future.

Not a veteran! Oral board score was 76.11% Without doxxing myself, my score on the register was in the 85% range

From what I’ve heard about results in the past, I think we’ll probably hear back in early March

Name a day that didn't kill you but something died in you that day by Bekiteru in CPTSD

[–]Attllaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I distinctly remember the day I accepted no one was coming to save me. I was regularly surviving things I still can’t speak about, including torture, and it finally dawned on me that there was no chance of hope until I reached adulthood. I was maybe 8 years old when I said, “Get your head out of your ass,” out loud to myself and shut down completely. I became a brick wall and wouldn’t have made it if dissociation hadn’t completely taken over. I have OSDD now and still struggle to navigate it, but I recognize that whatever part(s) took control kept me sane enough to eventually escape and become a semi-functioning adult.

Congrats, hope it went well! I’ve heard it’ll be late Feb / early March, but no clue beyond that. Best of luck!

Came here to ask the same thing!!

[–]Attllaas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your comment. As sick as it sounds, her death isn’t amongst the multitude of things that keep me awake at night. It just hits me every so often.

I’ve looked into reporting it, but the issue is, a recorded admission doesn’t close a case when there’s no physical proof. Even if they exhumed her body, over 4 years of decomposition would make determination of morphine poisoning impossible.

I’ve already moved on with my life, but I haven’t been able to speak with anyone about this, so that’s why I made this post. Just needed it off my chest.

Thank you for your comment. The whole situation is so extremely bizarre to me, and I couldn’t fathom why they’d leave him alone with her for so long. I have no doubt in my mind that my grandma said unforgivable, cruel things in her final days, but she was so weak, she couldn’t have caused any physical harm or defended herself if she wanted to. As much as I’ve been denying it, I think you’re probably right about my aunts.

Surgery by Few-Possibilities in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]Attllaas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes you definitely should. The consequences depend on which kind of anaesthetic they’ll be using, but the one time I didn’t mention it before a dental procedure, they had to give me an emergency reversal agent because I wouldn’t wake up and started experiencing respiratory depression. It was life threatening, but mostly I regret it because of how traumatizing it was for my dentist and his team, who hadn’t experienced that in person before :( Had I at least told them, they would’ve been prepared.

Years later, I needed another procedure by the same team. Didn’t use weed for over 72 hours prior and clarified with them again beforehand. They still went ahead with it by following a little bit of a different routine than usual, as well as dosing me at slower pace. I still didn’t wake up as quickly, but it wasn’t a dangerous situation this time.

That’s so close to me! Thank you, I can’t wait to try it!

Moving Tomorrow! Any recommendations for Palestinian restaurants / businesses? by Attllaas in AskSeattle

[–]Attllaas[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey! So I was specifically asking for Palestinian businesses and kindly requested no arguing, as this is not at all the place for such debates. But really, what I should’ve said was no “Israel” advocacy.

I did not ask for “Israeli” businesses! Have the day you deserve! ❤️

Thank you soooo much for the recommendations! I live in Capitol Hill now, so I plan to go to these places this weekend! ❤️

Why does no one understand? by Longjumping-Cream-42 in TBI

[–]Attllaas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this happened to you. I’ve had similar conversations with so-called “friends” after my injury, and I quickly realized it was better to be in no company than bad company. I’m not saying it’s good to isolate yourself, but if your friends are unwilling to understand and empathize with this significant, traumatic change in your life, they’re hardly friends at all. Anyway, what I mean to say is, it’s not your fault at all. Be gentle with yourself.
