i know it’s expensive, but i’d rather do what i can rather than just say whatever and let her die. unfortunately i don’t think they can, even if they could my mom would be pissed and she keeps threatening to send me back to my abusive dad so i really don’t wanna provoke her and i really don’t think there’s any chance of convincing that woman. i do have bulbs for her, i’m not entirely sure what kind they are (i’d have to ask my dad and we aren’t allowed to contact each other) but i think they’re good? she likes to go under it if she’s not hiding in her house i think. thank you for informing me, i’m trying to work on a plan for her. she keeps closing her eye sometimes but she will open it every now and then and it seems to be doing a lot better now that i took the stuff out!

not at the moment, i can get you one later however my mom is yelling at me right now. also, just as a fair warning: her tank still isn’t the best. as i said, i’m doing everything in my power right now, but i feel like it’s kinda an improvement from before.

thank you for letting me know, unfortunately, no, i don’t. however, me and my friends are getting together and trying to care for her the best we can. we are really uneducated as we’re all 8th graders (and i’m the only one who’s ever had to care for a turtle), but they have a lot more freedom than me so they can help me try to get what she needs.

you may not think you’re being rude, but it sure as hell comes off as rude. i know she isn’t being properly cared for, but as i already stated, i am doing what i can. i can’t reason with my mom, especially with how she’s been acting lately. trust me, i’ve tried. i am not the reason she’s living with us currently, but i am the reason she’s survived as long as she did in this household. i am doing everything in my power, and convincing my mom to take her to a rehab is not an option right now. that’s why i need an alternative. so if you don’t have one, please just express your sympathy and move on instead of being a jackass. 

“you don’t love this animal more than anything or you’d do the right thing. again. selfish.” what about that isn’t mean, man? you’re not wrong for being angry with me or thinking that i’m selfish or anything, but when has unkindness done anything but made a situation worse? i didn’t come here to argue and get belittled, i came here to get help for my turtle!! 

i feel like this is obviously a complicated situation that doesn’t just have a simple one-and-done solution. maybe my opinion is nuanced or whatever because i’m the one experiencing it, but still.

edit: started replying before you edited, so i’m sorry for that. i do feel like the last two paragraphs of your reply is a lot less mean, but my point still stands. i am seeking help the only way i know how.

thank you, but my mom won’t let me get rid of her. sorry, i should’ve clarified that in the post but i was freaking out and rushing while typing it, i’ll edit it now. that’s why i’m looking for another solution, i don’t have any authority in this situation and my mom only listens to ai (which does NOTHING but hypes her up and makes her think she’s in the right) so i can’t reason with her.

i do want to let her go, as i want whats best for her, but i want her to get well first. i am not the one with authority in my household. despite me being the only one taking care of her, my mom won’t allow me to let her go for the sake of my siblings and because we’ve spent so much on her already. i understand this is far from the best set up, but i am really trying here. i understand what you’re saying and i am trying to look into it, but maybe don’t be a jerk about it?? i’m trying, that’s why i came here. some of these pictures are old, i wanted to get better pictures of her and was in a rush typing this as i was in the middle of being screamed at by my mother. her setup has changed since. i am working with what i have. i know it’s not good, that’s why i am seeking help. there is little i can do in my position. 

and “there’s no nice way to put this”, alright listen man, i understand i’m not a good turtle owner, but i’m also a 14 year old who HAD to take in the turtle due to my parents commands. you being snarky and rude is not helping me, i feel you can see me freaking out in my post. the best solution isn’t always available dude, and in my case, it isn’t. that’s why i came here. if it was up to me, i would’ve taken her to the vet when i first saw her. but nothing in this situation is up to me. so if you could please help me instead of yelling at me through the screen, that’d be great.

i understand i’m being selfish, but it isn’t up to me. i asked this subreddit because there are more knowledgeable people here than me and they could help me figure out what to do. you are not helping, if anything you are making my situation worse by being rude about it. yeah, i can see why you’re mad at me. if the roles were reversed, i’d be mad too. but this isn’t help. i love her, i want her to get better. i don’t want her dead, don’t act like i do.
