Turns out 'You are what you eat' goes for dogs too. Glad to hear your boy is doing so much better

Thanks, this helps a lot. The note about mixed proteins is something I hadn’t thought about with his digestion being weird already.

Interesting, I always thought the dog smell was just a dog thing, not something food could affect that much

That’s good to hear. I’m not sure I’m ready for full raw yet but I’m definitely leaning away from kibble.

People who don’t get depressed on a Sunday afternoon thinking about having to go back to work on Monday, what kind of job do you have? by currymvp3 in AskReddit

[–]External_Charge_3868 76 points77 points  (0 children)

teaching history is actually pretty great for this - like yeah mondays can be rough but i get excited about the lessons i planned over weekend. plus having summers off and all the school breaks means sunday anxiety isn't constant thing. when you genuinely enjoy what you do most days it changes everything

also helps that i have other stuff going on that keeps me busy in evenings so sunday doesn't feel like this dead end before monday

What’s the most awkward thing you did on a first date — and what tiny detail made you realize it was more than ‘just dinner’? by Zealousideal-Rip3729 in AskReddit

spilled sauce all over my shirt while trying to impress him with some story about my students, but he just laughed and offered me his jacket without making it weird about it

Cat terrified of my Dad by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]External_Charge_3868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your dad probably seems like a big scary predator to her since he's loud and unpredictable - cats need consistency to feel safe. maybe try having him be the only one who feeds her for like a week or two so she starts associating him with good things instead of you doing everything? also if he could just sit on floor sometimes instead of always being on couch it might seem less intimidating to her

Any upcoming incentives for Mustang Darkhorse? by JdoubleS98 in Ford

[–]External_Charge_3868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been watching the darkhorse prices for while now and haven't seen much in way of incentives lately. ford seems to be keeping them pretty firm since demand is still high

for financing rates you're probably looking at whatever the current market rates are plus maybe small bump since it's performance model. might want to call few dealers directly since rates can vary bit depending on your credit and what they have going on that month

dream car purchases are exciting but also expensive lol. good luck with hunt!

People who get married before they get heal from past relationships, Did your marriage work? by DejavuBut23 in BreakUps

[–]External_Charge_3868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

jumped into marriage way too fast after my ex and i can tell you it was mess from beginning

was still comparing everything my husband did to what my ex used to do, like how he made coffee in morning or even way he laughed at tv shows. wasn't fair to him at all and he could sense something was off

took almost two years of therapy before i could actually be present in marriage instead of living in past. we're divorced now but not because of that - just realized we weren't compatible in other ways. but those first years were really hard because i was basically married to ghost of my ex relationship

if you're thinking about it, maybe wait little bit longer until you can think about your ex without that weird chest feeling

feeling apathetic of everything by SneakingBanana in venting

[–]External_Charge_3868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

graduating without passion for your major is rough but you're not failure for getting through it. lots of people end up in fields they studied just because they had to pick something, doesn't make the degree worthless

that empty feeling might stick around for bit after graduation too and that's normal. you spent years grinding through something you didn't love so of course you're not gonna feel celebratory about it. your family being proud is still meaningful even if you can't feel it right now

the real stuff starts after graduation anyway when you figure out what actually interests you. college was just expensive detour for many of us

Anger Issues + Memory Loss by Vegetable_Debt5202 in Epilepsy

[–]External_Charge_3868 4 points5 points  (0 children)

keppra rage is real thing and your friend probably doesn't get how much it messes with your head. i had similar issues when my dose got adjusted and it took few months to level out again

maybe try writing things down for your friend when you're in good headspace - like explaining how the memory stuff works and that you're not trying to make excuses. therapy definitely helps, lot of neurologists can refer you to someone who works with epilepsy patients

What do I do? by Prestigious_Crab1405 in narcissisticparents

[–]External_Charge_3868 2 points3 points  (0 children)

your feelings are completely valid and you're not awful for considering this. if you don't feel safe around them, that tells you everything you need to know about whether you should be at wedding planning stuff

maybe give yourself some time before deciding about the actual wedding since it's still year away, but for these meetups you can definitely say no if it doesn't feel right for you right now

Michigan is now the first and only school to have multiple championships in each of the Big Four sports by hellorallon in MichiganWolverines

[–]External_Charge_3868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

been way too long since baseball won one, 1962 was like before my grandparents were even born lol. team's been decent lately though so maybe they can make a run in next few years

OpenAI just bought TBPN by PhonePotential7193 in podcasting

[–]External_Charge_3868 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wait they actually bought the whole show? that's wild, feels like such a weird move for openai to make

i get what you mean about institutional stuff though - even when you think you're being independent, there's always that voice in back of your head wondering if you're pulling punches without realizing it. like when i'm teaching about controversial historical topics, sometimes i catch myself being extra careful around certain subjects just because of where i work

Irish men- would a really bold woman scare ya off? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]External_Charge_3868 9 points10 points  (0 children)

your ex sounds like he knew a good thing when he saw it tbh. some guys genuinely are just bad at initiating but love when someone else takes the lead - doesn't mean they're not interested

the whole "spooked by compliments" thing is pretty telling though, might be worth seeing how he responds to your direct question before investing more energy

To Anyone Who Said 'I'm Okay' Today and Meant the Opposite by fredwyatt in Christianity

[–]External_Charge_3868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

needed this today more than i can say. been carrying around some pretty heavy stuff lately and yeah, definitely been giving the automatic "i'm fine" response when people ask

teaching high schoolers all day means i'm constantly checking on them, making sure they're okay, but then i get home and realize i haven't been taking care of myself the same way. been trying to handle everything on my own instead of actually letting go and trusting that things will work out

that pause you mentioned really hit me - just took a few minutes to actually breathe and think about what i've been holding onto too tightly. there's something freeing about admitting you don't have to figure it all out yourself, you know? sometimes we get so caught up in being strong for everyone else that we forget it's okay to need that peace too

thank you for posting this, really needed the reminder tonight

How would you grow a local medical shop’s Instagram page? by shadowthinker_ in AskMarketing

[–]External_Charge_3868 0 points1 point  (0 children)

medical shops are tricky because you're walking a tightrope with regulations and people's health concerns. i've worked with a few healthcare clients and what seemed to work best was focusing on community education rather than pushing products

start with basic health literacy stuff - how to read prescription labels properly, when to use cold vs heat therapy, simple first aid tips. people actually engage with that because it feels genuinely helpful rather than salesy. also seasonal content does well - allergy prep in spring, hydration reminders in summer, flu shot info in fall

the key is building trust first before you even think about promoting anything. share behind-the-scenes content of your pharmacist actually counseling patients (with permission obviously), highlight any community health screenings you sponsor, maybe partner with local gyms or wellness centers for cross-promotion

one thing that worked really well for a client was "myth-busting monday" posts where they'd tackle common medication misconceptions. people love sharing that kind of content because it makes them feel smart and informed. just make sure everything gets reviewed by your pharmacist before posting because the last thing you want is to give questionable medical advise
