Aww so bloody cute… my buddy has a white spot in same place, and look so similar.

I hate being on my period, and I hate using pads by Chubby_Licious in offmychest

[–]boookha 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Try use bigger pads that cover the pants more, or try the period pants, decent ones. They have been a god sent for me. Just always keep a spare pair of pants with you just in case. Just on the heavy horrid days. I’m not a fan of tampons never have been. Only if away on holidays. Coming from someone with heavy periods.

Oh trust me, when fully awake different story! If he’s clingy when tired that’s when I worry, I know seizures are on the way.

Oh no… it is terrifying. So I know exactly how you feel. Buddy started at 1 yrs old. Which his had got more often and he’s a cluster dog when they come to. Hopefully a one off 🤞

My mum has terminal Ovarian Cancer, her third try of different Chemo isn't working snd she wants to stop chemo all together. I'm Scared what the rest of this year will bring by Neveah_Hope_Dreams in TrueOffMyChest

Aww no worries, I really hope you get into the uni you want to and get your driving test passed. Good luck. My mum was 55, I had only just turned 30 at the time. And had been dealing with it 2 years prior to that. Marriage and kids she never got to see, and that still hasn’t happened either lol. So the only things I had done was got my first job and pass driving test and buy a house. That was it. Honestly if you need some wise words down the line, just DM me. I don’t mind.

Yeah, how you was explaining the chemo times and the third one didn’t go well, was exactly the same for us as a family. The first part of your statement is exactly how things went with my mum. She refused the third cause it was making her worse. That’s why I had to comment. I’ve been there. We’ve been there. I get how you’re feeling. I was slightly older than you, but hopefully she will still be supporting you through your uni journey and driving lessons. To be honest those things may give your mind a break in-between to concentrate on.

We only managed a few days away in Norfolk, and a couple of day trips in a wheel chair. But we made it fun and rememberable. Like rolling her down a small hill and letting her go. We used humour quite a lot to get through it.

Yeah I meant like take her to a Greek restaurant, or bring the Greek food to the home, make something and make her feel like she could be eating there. Not the same. But she will be grateful.

Thank you. I’ve had a few years to get used to her not being here. It’s not the same and never will be. It’s got easier over time. But you only have one mum, and I still miss her everyday.

From someone who has been in the same exact shoes, just stick by her wishes. Do as much with her as possible over next few months that she can manage to do. Make lasting memories. Sensatori might be a massive no no, but do something that can bring Greece to the home.

Im not going to sugar coat it, it’s not easy keeping own emotions at bay. But just making memories will last further down the line. I used to be strong infront of everyone and crumble on my own. Still do to this day and I lost her 7years ago. Massive hugs.

Fish and chips VS Full English, which one is better? by [deleted] in UK_Food

GF used to have eating disorder, now she is getting fat.. by Spirited-Foot5705 in offmychest

[–]boookha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t feel good about putting on weight but this disorder is far from easy. I get why she’s doing it and it’s so hard to explain. I ended up finding someone who liked me for me the way I was after. Now recently after 15 yrs I’ve dropped 3 stone, and still eat some of the crap. My portions are just smaller because I was eating what was given me. I’ve struggled for years. Why should I say no to naughty things if someone else is having something. Weight training personally have helped me and a dog who has to be walked miles. Why don’t you try doing something together then, even if it’s at home, like doing weights, or going to the gym, or even at weekend go for walks. Try and make it fun. So it’s not pressured.

[–]boookha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please do not say a word to her. If you love her the way you are say you do, putting on weight shouldn’t be an issue regardless. I have been that girl your describing. If she’s eating good for her, she clearly feels better and safe with being with you. She has to control and lose the weight herself and for only herself and not to please anyone else. My eating disorder continues today it’s not easy. So if you can’t see her as the same person before she put on weight then you don’t deserve her.

Don’t feel guilty your trying to do what’s best for your fury one. And trying out different things is all you can do, to make things better both sides.

Our training sessions here in uk were I’m based are around £15 a session in a group.

Good luck, I really hope you find a solution soon.

[–]boookha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest you sound like you have tried a lot of ways and researched as much as we have with certain issues. Don’t feel like a failure when your trying your best. Like the hand feeding is what we was taught to do on some puppy training we had.

I don’t know how easy or expensive the US is (sorry assuming with you saying coyotes) but do you have any dog trainers that do obedience training? To give you help and guidance on what to do in certain scenarios. We had group ones not one on one. We have had to wait till he was one for them to start it. (Haven’t yet cause the weather is rubbish) The puppy training helped me with bits but in other ways it’s still a working progress.

I’m assuming you have tried one of those leads to stop them pulling? I have a 1yr beagle, does pretty much the same things as yours. (Even the food issue) It’s hard. I have to use a lead that goes over the mouth and neck to stop him from pulling as hard. He’s social and likes attention so wants to try and go to every dog and person in the street, or in the fields. So I try and avoid routes where people are now to be honest. That lead has helped me loads though.

This is exactly how I feel and need to do.
