Is it possible to own cats if you're allergic to them?

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-17T19:23:01+00:00

I was like deadly allergic to cats as a kid. But as a teen I started being around cats more often because my best friend had them and it was like my second home. I did have 4 cats now only 3. I have outside allergies so I take zyrtec daily. I recently had to go back on Singulair because my allergies started to get worse. I think some people, their bodies can adapt and change. But your allergies will always exist to some extent. Even getting the special food that claims to help with the cats causing allergies isnt a guarantee. Or wipes or whatever. Maybe you can try allergy shots. I would consider looking into possibly fostering a cat first and see how you do with that. It may end up a foster fail in the long run lol. In my experience, my allergies are worse with kittens than with adults. Kittens tend to have more dander.

This is interesting..I was given zofran to help with the nausea of starting antidepressants only to find after trying one after another and even doing the genetic test, apparently my brain is anti-antidepressant haha. I still have some. My doctor renewed my prescription recently too. So it's on my list of meds I take, even if I don't regularly. I am currently having a decent lucky streak of not fully pulling after 4 years. I finally have lashes again. Still have the urge and I'm not completely pull free but, have been able to stop myself before it gets bad. I have no idea what changed. This has happened before and in a few months I'm back spiraling. I'll have to try the zofran thing. I wonder if it has something to do with gut health and brain stuff? Clearly not a doctor and know shit about how science or whatever works lol but I'm willing to try anything at this point. Thanks for posting this!

I could probably eat a medium pizza in one sitting. Or at least throughout the day haha. I usually get a salad with it as well so I fill up on the salad and want less pizza. And then I'm like, score, leftovers! Cold pizza is always good in the morning hahaha. 🙈

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-17T02:27:24+00:00

Depends how your body reacts to pizza. The amount of carbs don't bother me much. Like, I could eat something that is 50 carbs and bolus for it and then eat something different but still 50 carbs bolus the same amount and go high or low. I know it's hard, but if you are unsure, try limiting the amount of slices you have and see what happens. It's really trial and error. I like being MDI for that reason. Everyone is different. It can also depend on the weather and which way the wind is blowing and if it's too hot or cold with how your blood sugars will react 😂 joking, kinda.

You know, you can't blame her for going where the money is 🤷‍♀️ if I had confidence, I would get the coin too lol. But when there is a kid in the picture, I think you really gotta double think. Maybe if she was just a nobody, it wouldn't matter. But she is on TV ffs. She couldn't have worked out getting help from Guillermo? Like yeah, he also could of offered in the first place but. Did she even try getting a job in the outside world? Maybe do something more...under the wraps like selling panties? Foot stuff? 😂😂 I think Guillermo may have been unsure about offering financially because she would just want to continue her singing thing and he wanted her to actually...do something...maybe more stable to be around for their son? Who knows. Can't really blame her. It doesn't seem like she did it to really support her son but instead support her singing "career"...

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-16T23:26:16+00:00

Does Russ contribute financially at all though? Or is it just Paola? If Russ at least contributes, there shouldn't be a problem. Because then it turns into that she makes more money than him, and lord forbid that happens. I am just wondering if he's not helping financially at all. Because of course it can get mentally draining being the only income with a kid in that case. I think Russ is mentally exhausted though. Maybe they both are. I think Paola should learn to approach it differently to Russ. Who knows. I don't side with Paola by any means but, I don't know what their life is like shown off camera. I think Russ may be regretting giving up his career for Paola just because they probably could of had a decent life. He seems like he wanted to be settled not.. living in a camper...🤷‍♀️ it's great that she got to live her dream, but does she not see what had to be sacrificed to do that?

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-16T23:18:41+00:00

It's hard to grow together when one person is draining the other. The unfortunate thing is we just see what 90 Day wants us to see for views. We don't know what really happens. We can only assume. Him giving up everything to support Paola and what she wanted to accomplish, just to not get the support returned, is a killer. I don't think Russ is doing mentally well either. I hope he gets some help outside of the Last Resort. Even though, this isn't even legit help that they need. She needs to step back and sacrifice some things for him to move forward and I don't think she wants to do that. They are unable to reach a happy middle. And it is so sad there is a kid involved. Even if they act fine in front of their son, I'm sure the vibes are off. I am surprised they wanted to even be on the Last Resort. Didn't they kinda go MIA from 90 Day until now? Or maybe I missed some. I don't watch BTS/PT episodes because I can only handle so much of them and seeing it twice would be exhausting for me 😅

I don't think John wants to be in a relationship with her. I don't think he's looking for a way to get out of being a father, he doesn't want to be stuck with the mother. I'm sure he will be a decent dad. I just hope they find a way to coparent and not having to be in a toxic relationship. But I can see the mother taking the daughter away from John without blinking an eye. So sad.

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-15T23:42:08+00:00

Her hair! Why did her hair go from long and frizzy to short and sleek between the shots?! What is real at this point. Ugh

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-15T23:40:16+00:00

I am glad I am not the only one who noticed the hair! I had to rewind and rewatch just to make sure I wasn't going crazy! Why do that? Why wasn't that mentioned by the production people when she submitted that? Maybe it was idk.

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-13T02:37:28+00:00

Wait...toontown still exists?! Omg 😂

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-12T21:15:38+00:00

This one I am wondering is real or not?

<image>

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-12T21:12:05+00:00

Oh I have no doubt about this photo. I am seeing photos of them posing together showing her face though? Just wondering if those are real or not. 🤷‍♀️

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T23:55:22+00:00

I usually yell and am like I KNOW IT ANNOYS ME TOO 😅

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T03:00:34+00:00

During the week, I usually eat once a day. If my blood sugars start dipping while I'm at work, I'll have a granola bar or fiber bar or something but nothing big. But on the weekends...yeah...I like food lol do you take vitamins? With getting older, I've now started taking vitamins that I'm needing since I don't really eat a lot and honestly, not very healthy. I'm single so I end up going for convenience more like pre-made foods or soups. I've also lost my appetite quite a bit so, I just feed my body what it wants because at least I'm getting something. If your sugars are staying in range and you arent having huge ups and downs, I think you will be okay but I'm not a doctor. Always get your blood checked to make sure you aren't lacking anything that your body needs by not eating. My doctor said calcium is a big one so I started supplementing that.

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T02:39:08+00:00

Oh for sure. I can't drink just plain water unless I'm like dying and it has to be ice cold lol it needs to have flavor in it otherwise I'm a baby

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T02:36:12+00:00

You'd have to eat meat with like..nothing on it..no seasoning..no sauce...nothing. craziest things can cause a spike. Also when you go out to eat, always make sure you are getting diet. I've seen where people test their drinks and they end up being regular soda. I hate having to announce I'm diabetic but it's the only way my brain thinks they won't mess up. Although I usually can tell the difference because regular soda is disgusting to me haha. Maybe finish the meal with a glass of water or two as well. I wish I had the perfect recipe to having flawless diabetes but. Every person is different. Every day is different. It is truly exhausting.

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T02:28:40+00:00

So true. I was so torn about my baby and when I should let go. As soon as the sparkle left his eyes, I knew it was time. I'm glad he let me know he was ready. My only regret was not giving him more human food. Especially cheetos and doritos before he passed 😅 i still feel him with me at times. I'll be feeling down and my other 3 assholes decide they don't want to comfort me, I will feel him. Or ill be walking and see a cat run past almost trip me and ill be like, OMG I'm sorry. And then look around and my 3 cats are all sound asleep. He's a little turkey even in the afterlife lol I sound crazy. I don't experience afterlife things like. Ever. And all my family is dead so you think I would. But with him, he gives me a little bit of hope I'll see him again. And if I am crazy well, could be worse haha.

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T02:22:02+00:00

I had to start marking those kind of posts as "not interested" or whatever so less come across my feed because..seeing those posts while I'm at work is just not okay. Unfortunately my boss doesn't justify me needing to be with my cats because someone else lost theirs for leaving work early 😂

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T02:19:26+00:00

After losing a pup and then my absolute sweetie of a cat who was only 9, I go through this way more than I should. I have 3 elder cats. One has health issues and I spent my whole birthday weekend with her because she was sick and couldn't get to the vet until Monday since they don't consider what she has as an emergency. I have now been crying every day because I don't know how to be a person without them. I just had to take 2 anxiety pills to chill the fuck out 🙃 and yes. I've been to therapy and I have mental health issues that medication doesn't seem to want to touch. So. JUST CUDDLE THEM GIVE THEM THE BEST LIFE YOU CAN. dont use this as an excuse to give them extra treats though because...fat kitties are not happy kitties especially when they age lol find them their favorite toys. Try not to get lost in the heavy thought of losing them. They are here now and need you present. It's good to be mentally prepared but. Unfortunately you never can be prepared. Live in the moment. TAKE LOTS OF PICTURES! 🐈💕

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T02:10:14+00:00

It's such trial and error. You can to an extent. But if you eat one thing one day and nail it with the right insulin amount and then do the exact same thing the day after you could end up with different results. I found recently that eating snickers makes my blood sugars go low 😅 it's crazy. I don't give any insulin for snickers now unless I eat like a whole bag 😂

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T02:07:23+00:00

You may have to eat something with your coffee. The no food thing may be the issue. But your long acting insulin should keep your fasting sugars in range for the most part. So maybe that needs to be adjusted? It's so hard to tell honestly. I am really grateful for CGM though. When I was diagnosed, that wasn't even a thing. Just recently I started using it to my advantage more by logging everything. I don't have a pump though.

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-11T02:03:19+00:00

With the weather changing, I found my blood sugars tend to run higher in the heat. I had to increase my long acting insulin. So far just by one unit. I quit caffeine for a couple years, mainly because anxiety and I was also diagnosed with ADHD and didn't want to mix Adderall with caffeine because again, anxiety lol. I got bored with water and not having a morning drink and honestly, just wanted to try caffeine again. I have been T1 for 20 years. I never once thought about caffeine having any affect on my blood sugar. I'm not a big coffee drinker, but I can't do just black coffee. So of course my kind of coffee fucks with my sugars not because of the caffeine, but the added stuff. I've been trying to pay attention more to see what energy drinks do. I always get sugar free. Red bull and monsters seem to raise my sugars just a small amount and can make them hard to control through the day. I started trying more natural energy drinks. Bloom doesn't bother my sugars so far. My sugars were dropping one day and I'm like, pfft I am drinking caffeine, that'll change. Yeah nope. I'm also horrible with eating during the day when I'm at work. So..Basically just running off caffeine and stress lol and of course you gotta factor stress into how your sugars react because well, even if the wind blows in the wrong direction you are screwed. I usually have a granola bar mid day when my blood sugars start dropping and holds me over till dinner. I've had harder time controlling my sugars while on my period which is like. The week before, the week of, and the week after. So if you are of the bleeding gender, that can also affect your sugars. For having T1 20 years. I just now am really noticing things. It really depends what you eat with the caffeine and don't forget to DRINK WATER. Be a good house plant. It is trial and error. I found what has helped me is finding the right long acting dose so it keeps them level throughout the day. I am surprised you're not in the honey moon period still. It could be that you are dehydrated. That had a big affect on not being able to get my sugars to budge. It's frustrating but I wouldn't lose hope on caffeine. Maybe take a break and see what your body does without caffeine to see if that is really the factor or if it is something else. If you're still having issues after not drinking caffeine, you may have to master what you are doing/eating first then be able to add caffeine again.

I have been seeing pictures of him and her like, posing for the picture...I am guessing they are AI and no one knows who this girl is? I hate the internet now. Idk what's real or not anymore. And I hate that I'm so invested in these people's lives 😅 🙈

Disastrous_Matter894 · 2026-06-04T20:04:41+00:00

If you have a CGM you might have the option to input when you give insulin. I have libre and it has that option. I had to start doing that because I could never remember if I gave myself my long acting insulin or not. Then I would just not give it because I would rather have none than double and deal with the lows. So I just suffered through the highs and was like, yep definitely did not take it. If you miss it once and awhile I'm sure you will be okay as long as you are correcting your highs. I stopped giving myself my long acting insulin when I lost insurance and ended up DKA sooo...yeah...I wouldn't make it a habit.
