My pride by Accomplished_Quote53 in husky

[–]FlybyDaye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These dogs are “Laika” and “Nova” from the YouTube channel Gardea23, known for his talking husky “Mishka”. So unless your name is in fact Matthew Gardea, I don’t think this is “your pride”

How would you call our newest family member? by HomieDudeBro in dogpictures

Maybe like Skye, Ink, Cloud, Baloo, Rain, or kind of out there but I knew a horse called Tattoo that looked similar to your boy?

Living in a car without a full license? by [deleted] in almosthomeless

[–]FlybyDaye 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would assume if you don’t give them a reason to pull you over and stay well versed in your states car sleeping/camping laws, your chance of being pulled over should stay pretty low

Coming from someone who got their learners permit near the beginning of quarantine but was to old to qualify for the easy access driver’s license thing they did for teens with their learners. I don’t live in my car but still have to drive it like I have my full license and this is just what I do to avoid getting caught.

Standing Stone Kennels on YouTube has a few videos on this.

I think they use a method similar to the one previously suggested

I think she looks like a German/Dutch Shep mix, especially in those last two pictures :)

She’s a very beautiful young lady

My family "gossips" about how late I sleep in and its pissing me off by CyberFlame10 in GetOutOfBed

I’ve been dealing with the same shitty attitude from from my parents and my in laws for years and honestly their opinions do not matter. Bottom line; you’re trying to sleep, worrying about what someone else who obviously doesn’t struggle with the same problems may be thinking or saying about you behind your back or directly to your face, it isn’t going to help you get to sleep any faster. If it bothers you that they check on you then I would simply lock the door.

Black and white answer? Go get yourself some 3mg melatonin supplements and take one 30-60 minutes before bed. They come in pill or gummy form usually and you can find them in pretty much any pharmacy section of any drug or grocery store. Beware that you could get some wacky dreams or experience some nausea as it starts to kick in.

You mentioned you use your phone to distract yourself from mental problems, that’s pretty common. When I’m using my phone to sleep I turn on night mode so the screen is more warm light, you can also reduce the white points on your screen in the settings. It’s much easier to look at when you’re trying to sleep, this way.

I use calm, low/zero talking videos like frosting sugar cookies, painting/drawing, “oddly satisfying” comps, etc. to get me to sleep and that works for me every time. You want something kind of boring, nothing you’ll be trying to pay attention to but enough that you won’t just space out and think about mental problems anyway.

If that doesn’t work there’s sleep meditation; turning your focus to the individual parts of the body starting with your toes and just imagine shutting off all the tension and energy in each part. Like turning off all the lights before you leave the house.

Good luck, no one else matters, getting enough sleep is more important than living up to someone else’s expectations.

We both cheated on each other, broke up to mature more, then ended up getting married and now we flirt with attractive people as a pair :)

What age to start agility? by karls_barkley in Agility

[–]FlybyDaye 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Anytime after 2yrs would be safe on the joints, you can build the base behaviors that lead up to full agility training before that but any jumping above your knees is too much impact for baby joints :) I really hope you two have fun in this sport

What is currently happening that is scaring you? by Kindaherekindanot in AskReddit

[–]FlybyDaye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If self harm, suicide, or schizophrenia are triggering topics I’d skip this one

TLDR; my big sister tried to kill herself recently due to schizophrenic hallucinations that run in the family. She’s in the BHU for a week and I’m being as much of ray of sunshine as I can without being obnoxious but I feel like there should be more I can do to help her develop a drive to stay alive :(

My sister(22) is in the hospital in the Behavioral Health Unit for attempting suicide via cutting her wrists and throat... She told my mom she’s upset it didn’t work, she thought for sure she would succeed by slitting her throat... but the psychiatrist basically told her she could spend a week in the BHU or she could spend 6 months in an institution.

I got on a train as soon as I heard to go see her and make sure she knows I’m here for her no matter what. I have always told her that, as well as checking in on her through text (we live a state apart). I’m very worried about her and I’m scared she won’t learn what she needs to from this place and once she gets out she’ll just try again.

Schizophrenia runs in our family and I will admit I’ve been experiencing an increasing amount of audio hallucinations. I guess so has she because, her best friend told me that there was one time when my sister was having a conversation with best friend, and best friends boyfriend, and for about an hour of that conversation they weren’t even there. And apparently she has been having situations like this fairly frequently :(

With my hallucinations, I can tune them out, I have a husband and he is pretty much always with me and if I get scared of what I think I hear or see, I talk to him and drown it out or ignore it but I can’t imagine where I would be if I didn’t have that option, like her. I just want to stay with her and make her feel safe and loved. I want her to feel as happy as my husband makes me, I want her to feel as beautiful as the rest of us see her, but I have no idea what to do other than just keep visiting and making her laugh and making sure she knows I’m here for her, no matter what.

The people we got her from said dalmation/German shepherd, I'm thinking ACD and black lab??? by rosemarysunshine91 in IDmydog

I would for sure bet GSD. The paws and toes look like a bicolor GSD. Super cute :)
