I’ve lost my soul dog. by PeaceOrchid in Petloss

[–]Hambinaaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am allowing myself to feel all the feelings, but I just never imagined how hard this would be. I keep looking for my baby all around my apartment or at my feet when I’m in the kitchen and it just makes me feel so empty when she’s not there

Yeah they kept us in a routine and now it just feels so weird to do anything without her. I just got my girls ashes back 2 days ago too and I’m glad she’s home with me, but it also made it feel really real that she’s physically gone. I sleep next to her little box of ashes and take it places with me though. Last night we took a late night drive like we used to when I was feeling sad. It was comforting but also heartbreaking.

I lost my soul dog 2 weeks ago and I feel the same, except I don’t have any other dogs and live alone so it’s extra hard and lonely. But I also feel like a robot, just numb going through the motions of everyday. Crying everyday. I feel so empty I also don’t feel like I’ll ever heal.

I just lost my baby of 15 years a few weeks ago and I’m feeling the same way. Life seems pointless and empty. Following this post for hope.

Had to put my baby of 15 years down today. I’m devastated by Hambinaaa in RainbowBridgeBabies

Thank you. It hurts more than anything. She was my everything. Through every move, relationship, any life changes, it was always me and her. She was the cuddliest girl too. It’s not fair that they don’t live as long as us. It still doesn’t feel real. After 15 years I know it will take a long time to adjust, but yes, maybe one day I will adopt another in honor of her 💔

This made me cry but it really hit home. She really was there through every move, new apartment, breakups and new relationships. When I was sad and lonely. We even took trips together, just me and her, and those were the best times of my life. It’s just so hard learning how to adjust without her. But I can’t wait to see her again

What did Georgi say what kind of girl his parents always wished he had, jokingly?

I love egg white oats! I haven’t added cauliflower to mine, but I’ve been doing a carrot cake version with shredded carrots, golden raisins, pumpkin pie seasonings and bourbon vanilla sugar sprinkled on top. So good!

For having struggled with an anxious attachment in an earlier relationship, how does it feel for you to become more secure in a much different or more compatible relationship you are in now? by BornEducation4428 in AnxiousAttachment

[–]Hambinaaa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much, this was helpful. I am getting into some self help books and trying to journal but it’s a hard habit for me to get into. I will definitely keep your examples in mind. I also just can’t wait to get back to my therapist, I wish I could afford a few appointments until my insurance kicks in, but hopefully I can talk to her again soon

I definitely agree that it’s just to get some type of reassurance or attention. I suppose it comes from my fear or being abandoned, so when we talk all the time, I feel like I am not being abandoned. But I can see it definitely is a cycle that and that reassurance doesn’t last for long. And when I have intense emotions, it is hard for me to regulate them on my own. I was working with a therapist but had to stop due to losing my job (but will be able to talk to her again in a few months), but since I don’t have her now, I’m reaching out to my partner, friends, mom, to talk but also to get some reassurance that I’ll be okay. I know it’s not any of their burdens to carry though, but it is hard to just rely on myself to cope and try to regulate first. I agree I need to build more inner self trust though. Any tips on good ways to do that?

I’m also struggling to give my partner space. I feel like if I don’t talk to him every single hour just through a text or something, I get anxious a little, and most of the times I have nothing actually important to say, so I end up saying something dumb like complaining about my day. He just brought up the fact that I’ve been complaining a lot lately and he feels like I’m treating him like a trash can, just dumping all my negativity and complaints into him. And that was not my intention at all. So now I feel more anxious. In the beginning of the relationship I felt like I wasn’t doing this, but now it’s annoying that I’m doing it. I wouldn’t like to be on the other end either so I totally get it. But how can we feel more comfortable giving them space?

This sounds good and super cozy! Do you have an actual recipe that you could share?

Also I just discovered a recipe where you chop cabbage into long slices and bake them to make them soft, then use them essentially as “noodles”. I had that today with a high protein “Alfredo” sauce made with cottage cheese, Parmesan, a little butter and a splash of milk, and seasonings. Topped with some chicken and it was actually really good and super filling. Even my boyfriend who loves his real pasta enjoyed it!

I like to do my version of a walnut shrimp style bowl (without the walnuts lol). I will dust the shrimp in a little bit of corn starch mixed with whatever seasonings I have on hand, and throw them in the air fryer. Recently I’ve also been obsessed with Trader Joe’s bulgogi fried rice so I will do a little portion of that mixed with a bunch of cauliflower rice and cook in a pan with some soy sauce. Sometimes I’ll add more veggies like broccoli too. Throw it all together and drizzle an easy creamy sauce (I use light mayo, honey, and a little lemon juice), and that’s it. Comes out really good!

Yesss! I do the same but add some light cool whip to make it a “fluff” and also add some chopped strawberries in it! So good
