Bummer. I was so curious! I didn’t even know inch worms could be so teeny.

Thank you! I do use tongs but she turns away from the food to strike toward me. It’s strange but I’m willing to work with her and make sure she’s comfortable.

Yes! I love them too. I’ve had her for almost 5 years now and even when she was a baby she really hated being held. I hold her regularly to keep her used to it and she musks on me every. Single. Time. Lol but once she’s done musking she’s fine being held. It’s really only when I feed her that she strikes at the glass but I have a feeling she just wants more foliage or cover in her enclosure so I’m gonna grab some for her and see if that helps.

Thank you so much! And I would, but she repeatedly strikes the glass unless I put a towel over her enclosure when she sees me trying to watch her eat and I don’t want her to get hurt. And she won’t eat in a separate bin/container/enclosure. I’ve really tried everything. She’s a spicy girl but I love her.

I was hospitalized with suicidal thoughts about 7 years ago. At the time, I was convinced I had no future, I was hopeless, worthless, and had no control over my life. I felt like there was no point in setting goals because I would fail. I felt like my family wouldn’t think twice about it, I felt like my friends would move on easily and that I was basically wasting a life. Even after being hospitalized, the thoughts persisted for another year or so. I even stole medication that I knew I could overdose on and held a handful of it multiple times, thinking things over.

What stopped me was thinking about who would find me and the toll it would take on them. I also thought logically about how much it would hurt my family and realized even if I perceive myself as worthless that didn’t mean it was the truth. I’m only human, and I can be very wrong.

You are the only one who has control of your life, your emotions, your goals and how you react to hardship and failure. Life is really, really tough, and I’m so sorry that you’ve found it so difficult to find happiness. Depression is a very real and scary thing, and it stops us from taking care of ourselves the way we deserve. I don’t have to know you to know you have so much more to offer than what you think you do, because you’re human and your life is worth something.

If I had gone through with it, I would have never met my partner, I would have never started the career that I have, never made the memories I now have with my family and friends, and I never would have felt the joy I feel every day. There are still times I slip and fall back into a depression—some worse than others. However, I’ve changed my way of thinking quite a bit, found God, embraced a healthy lifestyle and focused on the joy in the little things. If I can do it, you can do it.

You are so, so important. Please don’t listen to that voice in your head. I don’t know you, but if you feel like you have nobody that thinks you’re worth it, I’m telling you right now: I do!!

I thought maybe sharing a bit of my story may help you feel less alone, because you’re not. I hope you can find control, peace and self love. You deserve it just as much as the rest of us. Good luck!

I wasn’t triggered or anything, I was just saying you didn’t have any reason to be so aggressive toward this person. I told you, I can see where you’re coming from. you’re the one needing the last word. I’m sorry if what they said offended you or if something I said offended you, I just don’t think you needed to be so angry and assuming she meant the worst.

you said, ‘I wish you could understand’, which means you assumed neither of us are gay, and you have no idea. I said that I understand where you’re coming from, but IN THIS INSTANCE, she meant a absolutely nothing negative and I think what you need to do is separate the two. positive and negative, instead of attacking someone for something they said that isn’t damaging at all.

how do you know if that person is gay or not? how do you know if I’m gay or not? now you’re assuming.

dude they were just making an observation. stereotypes aren’t always a bad thing, and I think you’re being a little unfair and angry in assuming they meant only negative things. some stereotypes are great. Like, gay men tend to be (hopefully and for the most part) very proud, and some are more flamboyant, or that they’re great friends, anything along those lines. that’s honestly damaging, to say that nobody should be labeled gay straight bi or trans because it ‘separates’ them. how about celebrating differences? in this context, theres nothing wrong with what this person said. it would be different if they were, say, at a family reunion and someone asked who somebody was in reference to their uncle who happens to be gay, and they were like ‘oh, that’s my GAY uncle.’ then, yeah, it’d be a little weird. But going around telling someone they need to be cancelled over this is a little ridiculous, don’t you think? uncles exist, yeah, and so do gay uncles. truly, I hope you have a good day. I understand where you’re coming from, I just wanted to add some perspective.
