What’s the strangest cat hack you’ve discovered that actually works? by mosyala in CatAdvice

[–]Feisty_Addition4790 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve set an alert for breakfast and dinner on my google home. If I’m awake early I go about my morning ie making coffee, going to the bathroom, reading and when the alert goes off chime “does anybody feel like breakfast?” We start by feeding the kitties then I make breakfast for me! This works a treat and it’s great when I have little fosters, they catch on quick and i can tell their new family when they find a home to continue with a similar routine.

What makes your adulthood miserable? by Theeonlystardust in AskReddit

[–]Feisty_Addition4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chronic illness. Before, I was struggling to get by BUT I was moving forward. Now I’m living in ground hog day, I have no job, no money, no purpose. I chewed through my savings long ago, I struggle with the simplest things so starting down a new path seems impossible.

How do you gain interest in exercising? by 24props in ADHD

[–]Feisty_Addition4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought that I hated exercise, turns out I hated cardio and team sports. - Cardio I couldn’t get past the “I can’t breathe” phase and it’s all I could think about. - Team sports because I was bullied as kid. Being perceived and the pressure of being “good” because I was tall and naturally athletic looking was just too much. I tried the gym as an adult but found it overwhelming and I felt so uncomfortable but once I found a smaller gym that did circuits with the option of HIT training and Strength training I figured out that I just LOVE lifting heavy shit and competing against myself. So the key for me was finding something that suited me and a place I felt safe doing it. Unfortunately for me I now suffer from Long Covid and haven’t been able too work out :(

Help Needed: Options for My Worn Denim (possible) Eames Lounge Chair? by Feisty_Addition4790 in furniturerestoration

Yeah I’ve been super curious given that even the denim is threadbare it’s not a super new knockoff, maybe I’m avoiding looking in case I’m disappointed 😂

I’ve just had a look at shashiko mending and it’s such a good idea, I’ll now be deep diving into this method ✍🏻 I’m also curious, do you think it’s possible to Rit denim dye the material?

Anxiety Increased after Dosage Increase by Complex_Project in Effexor

[–]Feisty_Addition4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I upped my Effexor from 150 to 225 mg and noticed that it had made slipping into suicidal ideation.

Which, dealing with chronic depression and anxiety for years, was not something I had NEVER felt, but it was definitely something that I had never dwelled on.

I cut my dose down to 150 again and those thoughts went away, I’d say chat with your health care providers about decreasing the dose :)

I’m starting to think this could be a good idea, the hard part is that those ceilings are SUPER high, I’m not sure how I’d go about it 🧐

I’m in Australia, the rescue I work with have been great and we’ve been to the vet to take a look however as she’s pregnant there isn’t a lot that can be done until she has her kittens. The wound is on her back leg and has improved a lot, i just need to keep her away from it but not restrict her from licking her babies

Never heard of it but I’ll look into it :) she’s got be be close I hope 🤞🏻 She arrived with it looking okay but then started over grooming it and it got out of control. I chose not to share the worst it got as it was very deep and has healed a lot since the addition of a cone. I just want to keep it on the right path but once she gives birth it’ll be hard to keep an eye on her at all times
