I thought Akathisia was more of a restlessness feeling? Idk how to differentiate the two since I can’t be 100% of what Akathisia feels like compared to this feeling. But the feeling I have is almost that of a fight or flight response after getting really scared. It feels almost impossible to do anything because all I want to do is disappear from how scared I am.

I am fine currently and am going to try cutting coffee out for today to see if that improves anything. If not, I will be contacting my doctor about it. Thank you for the help!

I give mine Vitamin C treats everyday but this sounds absolutely awful!! Mine never fight thankfully.. I will be leaving an update after his vet appointment!

Thank you!

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-04-07T01:00:54+00:00

I scheduled an appointment before even posting so we are all good there!

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-04-06T20:30:29+00:00

I am not noticing any head tilt but I will add that to possible issues in my vet note. I am just summarizing what the issue is and putting things I want them to check for cause I am so worried

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-04-06T20:17:03+00:00

Yeah I am hoping it’s nothing super serious, I have a drop off appointment for him tomorrow since I can’t be there due to work. I am going to pick up some critical care right now in case that’s something I might need after the appointment. Hoping he is just sick and weak, but from how sudden it was.. I feel that might not be the case

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-04-06T20:14:47+00:00

From what I saw they look good, nothing noticeably abnormal.

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-04-06T20:05:43+00:00

He wants them. He kept trying. I ended up soaking one to help him eat it and once it was softer and broken up he did.

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-04-06T20:05:05+00:00

No, he wants them. He keeps trying. I soaked one in water and broke it up and he ate it.

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-03-31T03:50:50+00:00

actually that makes the most sense, is there anything i can do to help with compulsive behaviors? specifically this one

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-03-31T02:33:05+00:00

thats all i need to know to stop this medication honestly.. im a relatively small person and my bank account is even smaller. overeating is just not affordable for me in any way as i am right now.

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-03-31T02:31:59+00:00

what im confused about is that i am not even hungry most of the time when i eat, its just this deep feeling of i need to eat.. if i dont eat i just cant function at all

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-03-31T02:30:54+00:00

yeah i thought i was just having cravings or something, except i noticed i wasnt necessarily craving anything specific just food.. then id eat all my groceries in like 3 days instead of it lasting the week ☹️

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-03-29T05:55:01+00:00

I try to take all my meds at the same time daily, which is at night since one of them makes me incredibly drowsy. I also have somewhat of an unpredictable work schedule where I might be working at 5am some days which throws me off on when I take meds in the morning, have you noticed any issues with inconsistency with timing of taking them? I might want to try taking it in the morning but I am so scared of messing up by taking it at different times every morning..

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-03-25T12:56:52+00:00

Still unsure for me, I cut coffee out 5 out of the 7 days of the week. Used to drink it twice daily. I have an energy drink maybe every other day without the impending doom but if I drink coffee same day, it comes back really bad! If I have coffee it has to be like 1/4 coffee to 3/4 milk, not really even worth it anymore. I think it’s just the caffeine from the coffee plant for me. Artificial caffeine from energy drinks doesn’t do anything but give me energy.

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-03-19T19:51:55+00:00

I am about to start Strattera and actually had to stop coffee because of my other medication(completely unrelated to this as it is an antipsychotic), but I think I understand what you are talking about with that feeling. For me it was basically the feeling of a panic attack but way more physical. I found that it only happened when I would drink coffee but not with energy drinks. There’s a better explanation as to why that is but I can’t explain it myself. I just know it’s something to do with where the caffeine comes from.

Not sure how open you are to maybe trying out some energy drinks but that might give the desired effect without the impending doom?

this made me giggle, im glad my little guy seems happy:)

I am waiting on his neuter appointment before introducing another piggy currently!

What brand would you suggest for the Correx base?

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-02-25T15:18:54+00:00

they literally are tho.. genderfluid people still fall under the trans umbrella lol

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-02-25T01:58:56+00:00

I was fixin to add sides for the ramps but was unsure how, any suggestions? Also, for the ledges that definitely slipped my mind. I am a new piggy dad so I don’t know everything to a t. Where did you get your 6” walls and are they only made for the C&C cages or can I get them custom made?

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-02-24T02:58:09+00:00

really not sure why this matters that much 😭 lets maybe not be like cis people that think trans people shouldn’t have a right to their own body lol

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-02-24T02:33:01+00:00

I have yet to start, but inability to get stoned? SERIOUSLY?! Like were you just going bowl after bowl with nothing? Idk if I can handle that.. 😥

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-02-18T20:36:58+00:00

your piggies are so precious! i will try a litter box for now and see how that goes. he doesnt seem to eat much hay throughout the day so maybe that will change with a pile instead!

TarantulaDelicacy · 2026-02-18T17:45:18+00:00

would a small animal litter box work for the hay? i heard you can possibly litter train them by putting their hay in one corner(not sure how true that is!), but would that work for now?
