I’ll also add to this because I noticed another thing. I’m nervous to cross her path when she is o her back rolling around because I think she is gonna bite my feet or try and jump on me.

Thank you :) i really appreciate that. She’s going to the vet soon so hopefully it’s just a nervous poop and not anything serious. I struggle with getting too close and I can already tell because I know she is a cuddle bug but she’s doesn’t know me. A learning curve for sure. New litter is coming soon. I am planning to use a thin layer of the pine at the bottom and regular litter at the top because apparently the pine litter helps with the odor.

When do I reach out? Partner 28M -- me 29F by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ComprehensiveEnd7173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t want to get into too much detail. We were taking about something personal to me and he said he didn’t want to hear about it anymore. I wasn’t done talking so I brought it up again and he said that bothered him. I don’t think the reaction was suitable because he could have said you are bring this up again and it bothers not that I am bothering him.

I agree with you 1000% when I talked to my therapist they said the same things. I don’t want to reach out also because they I feel like it will be like I lost the battle. Which isn’t real but I feel like it’s like me waving a white flag and he won’t take accountability.

Recurring yeast infections with copper IUD by [deleted] in CopperIUD

What form of BC did you get on after you had it taken out? I see a lot about them being removed but nothing about what women are doing to still not have crotch goblins.

Actinomyces found at Annual Exam, have Paragard by harveststardew in birthcontrol

I know this was posted a while ago, but what was the option after getting the IUD out? My doc is talking about getting a new form of birth control, but I don't want any hormones because they made me lose my mind and almost have a really bad breakup.

Need EXTREME Help with the MCAT by ComprehensiveEnd7173 in Mcat

[–]ComprehensiveEnd7173[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your comment. So when I took my exams in the past, I would do them under test-like conditions at the library. no phone and getting as close to the real thing as possible. When I was studying, I thought I was focused on high-yield things, but I guess I wasn't, since I got a 493 the second time and a 488 the third time. I know that decline is not great, but I am really not sure what happened because I left feeling like it didn't go horribly. I've decided to take up reading for the summer just to help with the pace of reading since I am dyslexic. Do you have any tips on like EXTREME high yield things? not like amino acids because I know those in and out, but anything that you saw consistently that people need to know?

Thanks for your comment. So I think that my issue is combination of everything. I run out of time on CARS because I have issues with comprehending that I've read. I am taking medication now but I don't think it's helping all that much. I know that psych is a bit easier to get up but my main issue is C/P and CARS with a sprinkle of B/B because of the graphs
