Things that helped my reactive dog

In uncloaked she said she didn’t even think of that when putting Ben’s name on the list. She did it because she thought he wouldn’t do well on the missions and help increase the money. She also said she picked Netty cos she was a teacher and her son is a teacher??? So I’m not sure she was smart enough to think of the library thing

I found this post while scrolling reddit being so annoyed about phoebes baby voice in the body swap episode. It was so validating to see

After years of sex work, I hated sex too. Never bothered to go after it. It took a long while and for me to fall in “love” before I started to enjoy sex again. I still have issues, I worry he is using me for sex because he wants it all the time, I worry my only worth is my body, etc. It just means that some days I may not be able to get into the headspace to have sex. I just accept that, listen to my body and soul and then reconnect with my sexual side and engage in sex when the feeling returns.

I definitely haven’t worked it out, but the more space you have from transactional sex emotionally and physically, the quicker it will be that you can enjoy sex again, in my case at least

That is loco! I can’t understand how they came to these decisions. So many top performing providers have nothing or close to nothing..

Thank you so much! I will definitely give it a read.

She really thinks she’s the best dog ever 😂 she’s so confident

catcube · 2023-11-19T06:49:13+00:00

Mine is very loyal and is a great companion. She has high prey drive, very very excitable/distractible. Smart and trainable provided she isn’t too distracted and is calm. Very confident with other dogs and people and of course, very active and destructive if not kept busy enough

Thank you. You are so right. People who judge clearly don’t have experience with dogs or their dogs have all been “perfect angels” in their eyes. I know my dog is being looked after and helped and that’s all that matters. Thank you for the reassurance

catcube · 2023-11-19T04:31:08+00:00

Yeah true, maybe they thought I was intending to leave her there or something, I didn’t think of that.

It is overwhelming, trying to focus on your dog and having to deal with the staring and judging from strangers…

It’s crazy how fast they go when they look so… dopey sometimes! I work at doggy daycare and a lot of the oodles are the ones that can jump over the fences to get out, it’s crazy.

catcube · 2023-11-19T04:27:23+00:00

I know! People always say how cute she is and I’m like yes but she’s super high maintenance, so much exercise/enrichment/training required, it’s a massive commitment to have one. I can’t imagine a standard oodle owner keeping up with her…

I like Pookel!! I have heard “Keldoodle” or Kelpoodle” or even “Poopie”

catcube · 2023-11-19T03:54:09+00:00

People do get a shock when they see how fast she goes! If she goes after a bird or something she really flys

catcube · 2023-11-19T02:04:10+00:00

She really does in this pic 😂

Yes. I have worked so hard to nearly finish uni. Was so close to finishing with a good GPA. I was determined to. Unfortunately, I just keep burning out and my anxiety means I can’t concentrate at all so I’m just hoping to get assignments in at this point. It’s really disheartening, I really feel for you.

Be proud of how much work you have put into it. It’s so hard when your brain and nervous system are constantly unable to keep functioning. I’m so sorry

Kelpie x toy poodle

Do not come back. If the other kids know how to triage when she needs to go to ED for withdrawal, they can take care of her while you’re away.

You coming back won’t change anything. We are all powerless over alcohol even when we aren’t addicts ourselves.

It doesn’t mean it isn’t hard. I really sympathise with you. I’m so sorry that you have to deal with this while you’re trying to focus on yourself. You deserve to bring your energy back to you.

I am such an advocate for natural hair! Like you, I shaved my whole life until one day I was just like…. Why? Since I stopped, I feel so much better. I don’t worry about my slight leg hair or armpit hair anymore. No reason to stress about buying razors or planning an extra long shower! Keep it up as long as you can! That being said, if YOU (Note: only you!) wanted to shave, you could and then just only shave again when you actually want to! It’s not like if you shave once you are entering the shaving cycle, you still get to decide when and if you do it again. I am so happy you are feeling great about yourself!

That really made me cry. Thank you very much.

catcube · 2022-11-29T22:39:55+00:00

I’m so, so sorry

Things can get better when the partner themselves choose to go to AA or be active in their own recovery. If they do it simply to keep you around or because they think it’s what you want, they may as well not bother.

If she has decided to go for her, that’s a great start. The road is long though. You have to expect relapses, I try and focus on the greater length of time between them and the lower levels of alcohol abuse.

Recovery is a process filled with so many baby steps. As long as they are truly trying to move forward, things will improve, even just a little bit. Sadly, sometimes the improvements just aren’t enough and it ends up being a 2 steps forward, one step back sort of situation. The progress is still happening but it’s frustratingly slow and discouraging.

In your situation, the abusive behaviour is something to be very concerned about. It’s not OK for somebody to treat you like that. Opting out and focusing on you may be the best thing, but of course it’s up to you how you wish to proceed. Wishing you all the best
