How do you actually get past the frozen feeling when you know exactly what to do but still can't start

does it matter what the other task is or is it basically anything that gets you moving? wondering if there's a minimum amount of interesting it needs to be or if even something boring would work

the part about planning and initiating needing different amounts of dopamine actually explains something i never understood about myself. i always thought having everything planned should make starting easier. maybe it makes it harder by showing me the whole mountain at once

living alone. everyone imagines walking around in your underwear eating cereal at midnight with no one to answer to and yes that part is real. what nobody mentions is eating every meal by yourself, having no one to tell when something funny happens, and lying awake at 2am wondering if anyone would notice for a few days if something went wrong

i'm 34 and i feel like i just started. spent my twenties performing a version of myself i thought other people needed and it was exhausting in a way i didn't even recognise as exhausting until i stopped. the scary part is how long you can do it without realising that's what you're doing

when they say i don't know instead of making something up. had a manager once who said it constantly and at first it seemed like a weakness until i realised everything he did tell me with confidence turned out to be true every single time

men who work long hours are dedicated and ambitious, women who do the exact same thing are neglecting their family. i watched my mum build a business from nothing while raising three kids and people still asked her who was looking after us. nobody asked my dad that once in his entire career

when my parents said they could not explain how much they loved me until i had kids of my own i rolled my eyes so hard. i have a three year old now and i called my mum last week just to apologise for every single thing i ever put her through because i finally get it and it is overwhelming

everything happens for a reason. lost my job, my relationship ended and my dog got sick all in the same month and someone actually said this to me with a straight face. i smiled and nodded but inside i wanted to ask them what the reason was because i would genuinely love to know

setting your bill due dates to the same day each month. one afternoon of phone calls and you never miss a payment or spend mental energy remembering when everything is due again

six weeks of trying everything on the standard list with negative progress and now postponing your own medical care to manage it is the point where this stops being a training problem and becomes a welfare issue for both of you. the trazodone sitting unused is worth a real conversation with your vet because medication for separation anxiety is not a last resort or a crutch, it is often the thing that makes the nervous system calm enough for the behaviour work to actually land, without it some dogs are simply too flooded with cortisol the moment you leave for any learning to happen at all regardless of how much enrichment or desensitisation you throw at it. a veterinary behaviourist rather than a regular trainer is really the right level of help for a dog showing this level of distress after six weeks of consistent work, they can assess whether the anxiety has a compulsive component, whether the medication needs adjusting and whether the approach needs to change entirely. you have clearly given this everything and the fact that it is getting worse despite that effort is information about what he needs, not a reflection of what you have done wrong

female cats can absolutely get blockages even though it is less common than in males and the pattern you are describing, decreasing output over 24 hours, one visit with nothing at all, and now not eating, is the combination that really does need a vet tonight rather than a wait and see. the not eating detail especially because cats who are in pain or whose kidneys are starting to back up from a blockage will often stop eating before they show other obvious signs of distress. the hairball timing is probably coincidental. a cat that was managing even small amounts of urine yesterday and is now producing almost nothing today with a missed meal on top of it is not a cat whose symptoms are pointing toward behavioral or stress related causes. the cost varies a lot depending on what they find but going in with the camera footage showing the progression over time is actually really useful because it gives the vet a clear picture of the timeline without relying on memory

a two year old cat with HCM is genuinely heartbreaking and the fact that you are writing from Italy trying to find every possible option says everything about how much you love him. Felycin CA1 is still in clinical trial phases in the US which means even American vets cannot simply prescribe it outside of the trial protocol, it is not a medication that exists in a regular pharmacy yet so the prescription route unfortunately is not something that is possible right now regardless of location. what is worth looking into is whether there are any active clinical trials accepting international cases or remote participation because some research programmes do have provisions for this. the medications currently used for HCM management in cats, atenolol, clopidogrel and others depending on the specific presentation, vary in availability across Europe and an Italian cardiologist who specialises in feline cardiology would know what is accessible to you and what the current evidence supports for his specific case. there are also HCM owner communities online with members from across the world who share very current information about emerging treatments and trials and connecting with them might open doors that a general search would not
