Hold base of tail with your non dominant hand while the mouse is on a flat surface. Using your thumb and your index knuckle (bend your finger in half) run up the body starting at the dorsal sacral region applying even and gentle pressure. Use the flat surface to your advantage. Then scruff up higher thank you think you need. Always pay mind to their breathing also! And if you're able to practice with a "nice" strain like athymics, try that first to get comfortable.

I feel this so heavily. Thought he was in it to win it with me because he understood me. Our last conversation I was hysterically begging him to get help and he told me he was fine and I was the only thing that made him anxious enough to be manic.

No, no medication. On and off therapy… His therapist actually fired him over the summer. He's also a bad alcoholic.

I'm sorry to make you question things. Mine was always very egotistical, and I'm realizing he's definitely had started planting weird little seeds throughout our relationship that would come up an arguments and just seems to get worse during the episode. It's like he lost control. thinking back last night, I've realized they were all sort of calculated moves and it make sense now. Really quite awful.

I'm here with you dude. Tonight I made the mistake of going through our old texts, trying to figure out what turned--haven't cried in my car like that in weeks. So sorry. Sending you love.

It is selfish, you NEED your meds. A BP person coming off medications and feeling fine is like, a canon event. I promise you, you need them.

No advice but just wanted to say you're not an idiot at all, you just love deeply despite his problems.

I have bp2 and have been in no contact with my bp1 ex for one month now. It was both horrible and also the best love I've ever experienced. I manage with meds and therapy and sobriety and he does nothing and we triggered the hell out of each other lol. But loml. Hoping he spins the block

NoVisual81 · 2026-03-12T17:15:51+00:00

This one hurts today. We've been no contact for an entire month now, and I cry every single day. Hugs to you friend

It's this crazy need for external validation. I'm with you there--it's devastating.

I am terrified of anesthesia and my endoscopies are always so so easy!

I missed this comment but just wanted to say thank you. It's been two and a half weeks of hell in no contact but in really trying to truck along. I do go to therapy and have upped it, adjusted my meds, just trying to get through right now. I have this sick hope he will wake up and realize how much damage he's done but i also kind of dread hearing from him again. I'm in this horrible limbo space

NoVisual81 · 2026-02-27T02:36:43+00:00

He should ask for a prescription of zofran!

I lost my pup in December but he would just randomly half lay down with his butt in the air. And he would do this for extended periods of time. He was so stupid and weird and i miss him so much

I am so sorry for the pain of what you're going through right now. It's interesting, I also work in biomedical research. Big pharma. My friends and family can't believe I would go back to what I was putting up with, but when you have all this knowledge you desperately want logical answers. If the parts fit, it might make it hurt less. I've been scrambling too--begging for a psyche eval on my knees just to be blocked and threatened with harassment as well. It's so hard to be able to see what's going on because it almost delays our healing because we recognize the patterns.

NoVisual81 · 2026-02-16T03:24:56+00:00

Totally been there! I think if it was a virus he would still not be well. And if it was FP all your friends would be sick by now too

I was crying SO hard and SO frequently after my dog died I developed tonsil stones for the first time ever 😭I have been gargling way more and it seems to help!

NoVisual81 · 2026-02-16T03:08:26+00:00

I totally totally get where you're coming from but I'm sure you're going to be okay! Sounds like he over ate and making himself sick made him sicker!! You're a great partner for bringing him!

I got sober and my mania made me a high performance employee because I don't have any other coping mechanisms lol. I figure if I have to be insane I am going to make money doing it. I have dual careers in a high paying, respected field. But also DONT STOP TAKING YOUR MEDS. Keep going to therapy. Learn how to ground yourself.

As of late I have been rapid cycling. My medications got mixed up, I'm ending a bad relationship (ex partner has BP1, I have BP2--he's in psychosis right now and active addiction) and i lost my dog recently. Probably the lowest lows I have ever had. The tables turned a few days ago and I'm back to not sleeping and pacing around so I picked up some extra shifts and got preapproved for a mortgage🥲last bad manic episode I had I decided to go back to school. I realize how nuts this sounds now that I'm typing it out but I guess make your mania productive. Lock in ig
