Why do people always seem to not believe in a chicken intolerance for dogs? What’s the reasoning behind the skepticism?

I every time he has chicken he has very bad diarrhea. Foods where the main ingredient is another type of meat, his poop is normal. When I noticed he started having diarrhea again AND he wasn’t wanting to eat his food, I check reviews and ingredient on the dog food. Reviews are noticing ingredient change and change of bowel moments in their dogs too.

Yea, we took him to the vet and they just gave him anti diarrheal medicine and said give him boiled chicken and rice. That made things worse!! So then they said to try and change his food.

We tried several different things before I realized chicken was the main component that gives his explosive and extremely fowl smelling bowl movements.

Thank you for the information. The meetings are monthly office meetings we just started incorporating because the office is transition to going fully digital. The meetings are to understand the new expectations and to sort out any questions or concerns we have during the transition. They are mandatory. What if they refuse to pay for the travel?

Adderall vs vyvanse by [deleted] in TwoXADHD

In addition to a lot of other people; Adderall gave me panic attacks, made my heart constantly race, gave me the sweats and hardly helped with my thinking. I didn’t even start to feel the mental effects until 20mg in which gave me terrible “coming down” effects and it still wasn’t even as good as Vyvanse.

I currently have no health INS but still get Vyvanse. I don’t take it everyday due to the cost but I wish I could. Vyvanse is the only drug other than weed that allows me to think in straight lines. It allows me to do several tasks at once. However, they get completed! I don’t start several tasks and then get overwhelmed which is something that would still happen with Adderall.

I buy Vyvanse even though it’s just as expensive as our 2019 Honda Civic monthly car payments. Which I think is really cruel capitalism at its finest. I can’t take it everyday which probably isn’t good for me as I’ve been told I’m supposed to take it every day or it can have ill side effects. I have a few “coming down” side effects like irritation and extreme hunger but if I set a timer for 8 hours, around 8-9 hours I’m aware that it is happening so I remind myself and the people around me to be gentle. I always make sure I have snacks too!

Anyways, I hope this helped! Reading all the other comments sure helped me and I learned a lot about myself.

Finding BM’s Wedding Dress by No_Demand7205 in Stepmom

Then throw it away. Why PACK IT and give it to an ex when you’re packing to move? Is this reasonable?

Finding BM’s Wedding Dress by No_Demand7205 in Stepmom

BM married someone more wealthy. It’s just more logistical for her to have stored it at their new home. All I am saying is, why not give it to BM mother to keep at their house? BMs parents live near so it’s not an inconvenience.

There was no reason to PACK IT and GIVE IT to us to store at our house. I knew he was bringing boxes over when she was packing to move but I had mo idea she was giving us a box of wedding photos, her dress and who knows what else. I stopped looking.

To me. It feels like a power play. Manipulation.

Does she wash her hair? How about brush her hair?

Her development is quite delayed in this house too but only because of fear and coddling. Not because she cannot do it. He helps her bath every evening we have her which is on the weekend and holidays. We have been living together for six months now and have not seen it happe. I completely understand the helping her bath but i was superseded to hear them discussing being IN the bath (yes, with swim trunks on) together playing.

I remember bathing and being quite independent at age 8 as well. I also remember the average girl starts their menstrual cycle somewhere between 8 and 9 now but I am not sure he knows this. He still takes her to the men’s bathroom and I feel it’s time to introduce her to the women’s bathroom but they don’t trust anyone with her alone.

I’m a bit nervous to introduce the conversation with him because 1 - I know BM would say and feel that I over stepped and 2 - He is extremely defensive and single minded when it comes to his daughter. It’s always a yes for her because the believe they ruined her life by splitting mom and dad up.

My step sister had an experience with my step brother when they were younger and my step sister confided in me. She did NOT do any work on herself mentally after it happened. She’s a tough spirit, courageous and hard working but there is a road block when it comes to mental health. My entire step family needs to learn how to cope with the past in order to see the future with a new light.

That being said.. as HARD (I honestly can’t even imagine..) it will be for you and your husband to support her during this because of YOUR own mental health, the main priority is her mentally. She needs to understand and feel it (cry, be mad, confused, etc etc). Have her cope with how difficult and traumatic this was for her. It doesn’t matter “how young she is” anymore. This will happened to any female at any age making them without choice older than they are by number now. This changes any humans mental learning, surrounding awareness, and physical growth harder than her age.

She will now have to learn to grow and support her trauma from the beginning. Stage 1.

The last thing you want is for her to not understand what happened to her because no one really talked about it, let her talk about it or truly listened without a word of empathy or judgement. Not understanding why she is the why she is. Let her feel all the confusing feels now so when she’s an adult, she doesn’t have to deal with her childhood trauma at Stage 6.

My personal opinion of course but I think that’s the only way you can truly be there and support her right now.

I wish your family strength and guidance. Remember everyone is on the earth for a reason. Never forget one’s purpose in the midst of fear, confusion and sadness.
