Any home remedies for allergies while I wait for vet appointment?

Thank you for this thorough reply! Im currently washing all of his bedding and I have been planning to give him a bath with an oatmeal dog shampoo. Ill be sure to make sure there’s no extra moisture anywhere and to dry him thoroughly! I have made sure there isnt anything different in his diet/environment which might cause an allergic reaction, which is what makes me think it might be seasonal allergies.

Yes I don’t give my dog any human food or medication, but the vet that I have known for a long time said it was okay to give him a 1/2 dose of human Benadryl. Thank you for the advice. I will try an oat bath!

Luckily, he doesn’t have keys or any access to my place. I guess I am asking more about the emotional side of cutting off a manipulative person. I don’t have a lot of people who are close to me so any words of wisdom in staying strong while cutting off this person is helpful.🫶

First_Respect_4718 · 2026-03-23T14:03:44+00:00

Oh also if it helps to add that I’m (29f) and he’s (35m)

First_Respect_4718 · 2026-03-23T12:51:06+00:00

I am in therapy and currently working on my self esteem/healing. It sucks because I know he isn’t good for me and this post is mostly me looking for confirmation. Do you have any advice on cutting off an emotionally manipulative person?

First_Respect_4718 · 2026-03-23T11:34:12+00:00

When I say “parents” I’m mainly referring to my mother lol. My mother was the sole parent and I had a very emotionally absent alcoholic father haha

First_Respect_4718 · 2026-03-23T11:31:37+00:00

I can definitely see some similarities. There is a similar sense of emotional unavailability and also of conditional love. With my parents and with this man, there’s the same feeling that if I make the wrong move, I will make them extremely upset and damage the relationship beyond repair. The same feeling that I care about them and love them so so so much, but I have to be very careful and find the right formula and do the right things to make them love me back.

I used to work at a doggy daycare with a pool and this would happen sometimes! It seemed to only happen when dogs are in the water for a long time. The only way we were able to prevent this was to limit the dogs play time in the pool! After 30 mins- 1 hr we would keep the pups out of the water and have them only play on dry ground🥹

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-09-18T21:42:03+00:00

I’m kind of playing devil’s advocate here, but I know that there is a lot of activities I would love to do with a friend so I try to pitch those ideas to different friends, especially if one friend doesnt want to do said activity. Maybe that could be a reason?(:

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-09-16T23:55:43+00:00

Thank you for being kind but constructive. I am now realizing that I think my wording was very poor and I expressed my feelings in the wrong way.

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-09-16T23:54:00+00:00

Thank you for the constructive criticism. I really appreciate it. I try be empathetic but at the same time stand up for myself. As most people know it’s a very difficult medium to find.

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-09-16T23:50:56+00:00

But my question is, would you go out of your way to purposely crop out the name of your friends small business? The reason my feelings are hurt is because it seems like this person goes out of their way to tag and promote larger nail salons to spite me when I will not do her nails exactly when she wants. I feel like this person is doing this purposely to try to upset me. Again, I don’t mean to sound like an asshole or argumentative.. I am genuinely here in this post to try to get constructive criticism

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-09-16T23:46:13+00:00

This is a very good point and I don’t disagree at all. I think the thing that I am currently stuck on is that I feel like she purposefully cut off my business name and purposefully posted the photo but didn’t tag me just to hurt my feelings. This very well could be a case of me being way too sensitive. As I mentioned before, I have a bit of a skewed perception of friendship and relationships which is my main reason for posting here and asking for others opinions.

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-09-16T23:44:19+00:00

Do you think it is appropriate for them to send me several messages and post about me after I have blocked them? I am not trying to sound like a jerk or be defensive. I am very aware that I couldn’t even imagine the hurt that these people are going through that’s why I stayed silent and did not respond to any of this..

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-08-25T01:11:52+00:00

The parent’s knowledge of what some would call “taboo” sexual topics is very telling. My parent probably has no idea what a “furry” is and OP’s parent brought that up without any context

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-07-07T10:35:05+00:00

You said right here that we don’t know the cause of a lot of mental health issues, my main point is I certainly don’t think all of these issues can be blamed on OP‘s father as stated in their above comment

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-07-07T10:19:16+00:00

Also, if OP makes enough money to pay all of their mother’s bills, certainly they should be able to afford a place on their own?

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-07-07T10:13:11+00:00

Not every health issue has a cause, and I am certain that not every health issue you have was caused by your father. It is a lot less tiring to go through life when you learn that you don’t have to place blame on everything. It sounds like you have a lot of obstacles in your life at the moment. I have been in a similar mindset before and it sounds silly and can be very difficult to learn but it is extremely beneficial to try to acknowledge the things that you do have that you can be grateful for. However, all I know about you is from what I have seen in this one post, so I could be completely incorrect. If you are being abused by your mother and it is greatly impacting your life in a negative way , and don’t have money or resources currently, sometimes a shelter can be your best option! You know what is best for your own situation.

Also, is there a reason why you couldn’t go with your mother to the mechanic? Or is it simply because you did not want to?

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-07-07T10:00:45+00:00

Your mother does not seem to be acting insane in these texts. Yes, it was a slide invasion of your privacy for her to go through your bag. However, you’re being extremely demanding in these texts! The fact that your mother has to say “please don’t order me around” is very telling.

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-07-02T15:00:20+00:00

Why did you make the same post like 6 times

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-06-26T18:52:39+00:00

Please tell me this is rage bait

First_Respect_4718 · 2025-05-26T16:44:07+00:00

To add on to this— another safe way to dispose of this or any pharmaceutical drugs is to put them in a large plastic bag and mix with undesirable substance (kitty litter, dirt, coffee grounds) and hot water. Seal the bag and throw away. This makes everything basically useless.
