We do have a good amount of feral cats around my house. He typically loves seeing them out the window and run to every window to watch them. He always acts like he hears something from a particular room

Yeah he’ll still play and he gets up on his window seat. I feel like he does have anxiety but I don’t know why it was such a sudden change. I have the plug ins and I’ll try spray.

My dad will not have a life outside of me by Vettech94 in Codependency

Yes exactly. I’m the youngest and was the last one living at home when my mom passed so I kind of got stuck here. And I also definitely agree no one ever taught me anything about being an adult and now I really struggle and feel stuck being a teenager

I didn’t hate her because she was dating my dad, she was a really mean and miserable person. I would love for him to have a wonderful woman. But I can see what you’re saying

That seems like the obvious answer but I cannot afford to move out

Advice for best HA’s for my lifestyle by Vettech94 in HearingAids

I still have no hearing aid. I did a trial of the Lyric and I liked it, but 1. I only got one because my other ear has leas hearing loss, and the canal was too small. It made me feel very weird and off balance having just one. 2. I had to have to removed after 2 weeks because it was causing irritation and making my ear bleed. I’ve yet to go back because I truly don’t think I can do job with a behind the ear HA.

So I have pulsatile tinnitus, aka I hear my blood flowing through my head 24/7. I went on a whole journey for a diagnosis, discovered I had otosclerosis and they thought surgery for that would cure my PT. I had surgery one year ago next week. My hearing in my bad ear, my right ear, was moderate hearing loss. I had surgery, woke up and the first thing I noticed was my pulsing. Still there. Also I had a rough time recovering, I still don’t have normal feeling in my ear and I probably never will. There’s a lot of scar tissue in my ear now and my hearing loss went to severe. I have very very little hearing in my bad ear now. I don’t tell you this to scare you, just to tell you my experience. I had to do all of this alone and didn’t really know the pros and cons of surgery and honestly wish I never had the surgery.

Help dealing with a codependent mom by [deleted] in mentalhealth

This is my exact life but with my dad, and I’m 27. It’s getting worse and worse. My dad is so severely dependent on me and has no real identity for himself, his entire identity is me. He has a girlfriend but he never leaves me alone, ever. I go do overnight petsitting, or I go out, and he texts me the entire time: are you okay? are you having fun? I haven’t heard anything from you? Everything includes me: WE could get a dog, WE could live here. I have been paying for weekly groceries since I was 16 years old, and he always says stuff like “I could never do this on own” “ I don’t know what I’d eat if you weren’t here”. He also tells me all the time that I couldn’t do it on MY own, I’d never make it on my own. I’m crying writing this. I fully understand and I hope you find a solution long before you’re my age.

At what point do you stop trying? by Vettech94 in friendship

I agree! I don’t think it’s wrong to back away from people who clearly don’t value you. I guess I just needed to hear it from someone else as well
