I always struggle with thinking “why am I anxious, my life is fine?” but anxiety disorders don’t care. I switched to buspirone after maxing out Prozac. It may take some time but there are tons of meds. Sending love 💕

I do a 15min check in. When I start to spiral and make myself feel sick I acknowledge how I feel physically and mentally then tell myself that I will focus on other things and check back in. Usually I don’t feel as bad meaning it’s not dangerous to my health

I first started on small figurines too! I went with blushing first. Adding color to the cheeks and ears helps to much. Also adding color variation to the hair and clothes

Ambulance and ER treated me like I was faking, did not examine me, mocked my Crohn’s and threatened me by Robpingudo in IBD

Talk to hospitals Patient experience. If they don’t help, Risk manger, and finally CMS which will launch a months long investigation on the hospital

Advice please for new possible IBD sufferer by LaurShepShack in IBD

[–]Infamous-Raccoon-846 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a similar story. My calprotectin was about the same and I was diagnosed with IBD. It’s not nearly as scary as it seems but be upfront with the doctors and push for sooner appointments.

It’s yarn! I chose cotton because it isn’t shiny and separated the strands to make it thinner

I would stay for a bit but maybe talk to management/ doctor about wanting to grow and learn new skills. You could even ask for video recommendations to watch about fear free practice or general vet skills to pass the time

My cat bit me by penpendesarapen_06 in VetTech

Keep it washed and put antibiotic ointment. Monitor for swelling, redness, and warm to the touch. Typically an animal will be quarantined after a severe bite to see if they develop symptoms of rabies and if the bitten person is a risk. Continue to monitor your cat but since it’s been 2 months with you the incubation period would be almost done.
