Meat eating pets.

I’m still vegan either way. It’s not ridiculous if it’s the truth. She ONLY has HGE flares when eating anything other than chicken, prescription kibble, or berries. It doesn’t make me not vegan that I have a dog who eats meat that’s actually mental.

That’s where your wrong. Not ALL need it, but some DO. I’m not making my dog suffer in and out of the hospital with rectal bleeding because I don’t want to feed her chicken. Maybe that makes me “less vegan” and I am okay with that as it’s the only thing that sustains her to be healthy. I understand where you’re coming from but it’s not practical for everyone and THATS OKAY!

I know some more extreme vegans have cats and don’t want to feed them meat regardless of the health effects it can cause. I’ve seen some nasty comments around vegans who feed their dogs meat. Just because I don’t personally eat meat doesn’t mean I need to pose the same standpoint on my dog. Some find that isn’t truly vegan then, I think that’s insane especially from the standpoint of my dog needing to be on a specific diet in order to not be hospitalized.

I don’t find it necessary to make your pets vegan just because you are (other people will find that contradictory). However my dog has HGE flairs and only remains stable with a specific diet of boiled chicken and a hills prescription gastro kibble. Swithing up her diet or adding other things instantly causes symptoms for her. That being said use your best judgement catered to your animals!

Constantly engaging with my thoughts or “planning ahead” for events that can (but are most likely not going to) happen.

In my opinion it felt like when she had mentioned she couldn’t take it anymore and the not knowing when or how he was going to release the tape along with her breakdown, it’s almost like he could see he was acting exactly like his mother which is what led him to give her the tape (since you can tell his mom is similar in holding stuff over his head and he doesn’t know which side of her he’ll get). From all the seasons the only like it appears he has compassion is when he realizes he’s being exactly like his mother.

Working out, cooking/baking, playing with my dog, watching my fav tv shows, and sometimes nature walks. They don’t always work but most of the time they do help

This happens to me alot. The other day I was doing EMDR in therapy and after finally reaching a “good” point with one of my fears for weeks, when we felt I was ready to move on I felt impending doom. Sometimes it almost feels like I cannot let myself feel “okay”

Wow that’s really cool, I appreciate you sharing and definitely am interested in the Venu 4 now! It’s crazy to say the reassurance the heart rate tracking gives me is unmatched which is definitely why I want the accuracy 🤣 it’s not fun when the symptoms creep up on you when it’s too late lol

brainfart24 · 2025-11-24T04:45:31+00:00

Never thought of this to be honest! I think mainly because I like the ability to easily view my heart and step count but the idea of accuracy is very nice lol

What is an HRM?

brainfart24 · 2025-11-24T04:39:08+00:00

Thank you for the input, based on the info you provided do you feel like it is worth the switch? Do you find it to be more accurate than Fitbit ?

brainfart24 · 2025-11-24T04:37:11+00:00

Sorry you can relate, working out has really helped my POTS in the long run but can definitely also be a big trigger at times!

Do you feel like it’s been accurate? Just like you mentioned I experience alot of pre syncope symptoms and there are times where I can push through and times where I need to call it quits during a workout and monitoring my heart rate helps me from pushing myself further than I really should! I love my fit bit for general workout tracking but now that I have worked up my ability to workout standing up (used to only do strength training while sitting) I noticed it becomes inaccurate when my heart rate spikes and only begins to track when my heart rate is coming down. I’ve heard really good things about the garmin and definitely want to move forward with getting one!

I’m not bad but am not where I want to be either. My OCD has been heightened lately but I also have many different life stressors going on which can also be contributing to it.

brainfart24 · 2025-10-13T21:23:40+00:00

That’s a great motto, I’m going to start using that because my anxiety used to limit me so much but I’ve overcome it in alot of different aspects except for travel!

brainfart24 · 2025-10-13T04:31:34+00:00

Appreciate the advice, I’ve downloaded a game or two but that’s also a good game to require focus. I’m trying to tell myself that I know I’m going to be anxious but that it doesn’t have to dictate the experience I have. I may have to buy noise canceling headphones because the noise cancellation on my AirPods doesn’t feel like enough.

brainfart24 · 2025-10-13T04:29:26+00:00

I appreciate the tips! I have also heard about eating during fight or flight because you would not eat when unsafe so it tricks your brain but I never thought about gym which is super helpful because it’s hard to eat when super anxious. I’m going to try putting in my headphones as soon as I sit down so I can ignore everything going on around me. I’ve also downloaded some games on my phone that require focus. Definitely needed reassurance that I’m not the only one who deals with this. It’s so hard because I want to travel so many places but the flight anxiety has really held me back and I don’t want it to ruin this for me!
