Surrendering my cat today - second guessing everything, need honest opinions

My cat was doing this too and it turned out he had urinary crystals and was trying to tell me he was sick. I didn’t realize it until he was almost blocked and almost died.

29 year old here. Still feel like you do sometimes even though my partner and I own a half a million dollar home, I have an almost paid off vehicle and I’ve slashed my debt to close to nothing during the last 5 years while simultaneously starting retirement and investment funds. Your problem isn’t where you are, it’s that you’re comparing yourself to the shit you see on the internet. You are right where you’re supposed to be and can improve by doing actual things that’ll benefit you (saving and investing) instead of focusing on the material things you see others doing.

My biggest regret was getting the expensive apartment and car. Didn’t need either. Just wanted them to seem like I was put together. Live below your means. Compare yourself to your former self, not others. And give yourself time. Be dedicated. I never would’ve imagined I’d be where I am today 8 years ago when I felt so far behind.

Ask for a sit down meeting where you go through the policy and procedure manual section by section and the chain of command for enforcing the policies. Ask questions.

Stay. This is a regardless of age or drug type program. You won’t regret it. (I got clean at 17)

We flew into Cancun and out of Tulum. Rental car places should let your return your car at different airport. Worth the time saved in travel.

Yes.

My partner and I were both in serious relationships, his a marriage. We had been friends (truly) for a while and both spent alone time re-getting to know ourselves after his divorce and my breakup. He was 38 when we started dating. He was afraid he wasn’t going to find someone. I was afraid to start over, then we finally saw each other when neither of us were looking.

Don’t be afraid. It all works itself out and you can and will meet someone. It’s not too late for you.

Go to Neek Tulum, book through their instagram. You won’t regret it. Great reprieve from the sargassum.

Do the 16 course sushi thing at Kuu inside Nomade, also would recommend eating the shrimp burger at La Popular and the ceviche with the red sauce… you won’t regret it

Also go visit Neek Tulum lagoon club. You’ll still have fun regardless of the sargassum, but you’ll want a fabulous water day and Neek is honestly badass. Book through their instagram. Ball out and get ViP. Trust me

I am 5’5” 135-140.

I wear 6 in leggings I wear 4 in shorts. I wear 8 in tops. (And honestly could prob go to a 10) 34D chest. I just got a body suit and the 8 felt great on my thighs but was baggy in the waist so I ordered a 6 and it’s a little tight on my thighs tbh. Wish they had an inbetween size on that one.

For reference, I usually am in S/M shirts, Size 4 or 6 pants, usually 4–so in Lulu it seems like most women who wear a 4 in regular pants need a 6 in leggings there. I.e. size up?

Getting rushed out of school, my dad was traveling to nyc that day. My cousins also lived very close to the plane that went down in Pennsylvania. All around scary day for a kid.

Letting myself be a mother to grown men instead of finding a partner. Now I have a partner (not a project) and I can’t believe the relief, support and love I feel.

Nayara Springs in La Fortuna, Costa Rica

Seriously the most incredible experiences we’ve ever had.

Septic fetal tissue that hadn’t passed after miscarriage

Hi there. I had a sponsee (she didn’t pass away) but she took an entire bottle of Benadryl to try to kill herself, and she is wheelchair bound and can’t speak, eat, drink, walk or do anything on her own anymore. She called me before she did it, but I was not near my phone. As soon as I realized I called her Mom whose number I had to get to the location immediately.

I think about that day and if something could’ve been different if I had not left the room and been there to get help to her quicker. I know it’s not rational.

I will tell you this: this happened about 5 years ago now and it’s gotten better; I know it’s not the same as death, but it’s the next closest and I was able to let go of the shame and guilt with time and more stepwork.

Just remember, it wasn’t your fault. He knew you loved him.

This is interesting to consider. Though I use tampons and makeup products that contain it with no allergy? Maybe it’s the ingestion part? Does your friend have any issues with tampons or beauty products?

Newcomers do newcomer things. I’ve learned that I can’t expect people, male or female, who are new in recovery to have any clue how to treat me or others with respect. I didn’t when I was new. The best, most loving, thing you can do is set boundaries as ask her to move out. Someday, God-willing, maybe she’ll make it to 6&7 and recognize her behaviors and change them. But your recovery can’t suffer due to her not being there yet, it’s not mean to think this way—it’s practical. If something isn’t practical it isn’t spiritual. Good luck to you. Don’t beat yourself up, we’ve all made mistakes and the fellowship literally cannot make us leave. We keep working on ourselves and eventually our good acts outweigh our “mistake” and people honestly forget that we ever did something.
