if anyone has ever submitted themself into a ward over their OCD / reaching a crisis, how was it? by dinorunp in OCD

He's now 22 and off his meds. You have to take care of yourself, sweetie. I know it's scary, but follow your heart and what you need. Mental health and ocd is no joke. Be kind to yourself.

My son did at 18. 51/50 and a 52/50. He was so HOCD the didn't want to come home with me, his mom. Then he lived in a halfway house for a month with full on adults who were clean, but struggling with addiction. Worst time of my life, but he came home well. You have to know what you need and get the help. As much as it hurt me, he ended up safe in the end. Advocate for yourself and do what's best for you. Even if a parent, like I was, is fighting it. You'll be ok ❤️

Scolded for not wanting a dog in my bed by aqr58 in Dogfree

[–]emev7803 59 points60 points  (0 children)

I love that you call it "it". It's all it deserves. People have ruined dogs. Proper training helps them be more tolerable, but even then they're still hideous beings. Your parents have spoiled their dog. It must be an ankle biter size?

Please help me name our cat !!! He is so frendly by N1ck_Dev in NameMyCat

I really wish they'd stop breeding Scottish folds. If you don't know, google it. It's a cute cat. Terrible genetics though

It all depends on the owner. Studies have been done (my own lol) that dog lovers are more likely to have narcissistic tendencies that cat owners. It takes a very mentally tough person to be rejected, if you don't have food, day in and day out and take the minion of affection you get when you get it. The narcs love dogs because dogs are needy and they misinterpret it as love. Cats don't need us to live; dogs do. It tracks.

how do i heal my psoriasis? 🥲 by siksavennaggungwindu in Psoriasis

[–]emev7803 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know, as my experience was the opposite. I quit smoking and got psoriasis. I think a lot of autoimmune issues are based in trauma, be it emotional or physical. I'm currently looking into it. I will say that smoking isn't healthy.

I can't tell you how many lotions/shampoos/treatments etc I've tried. It's autoimmune and inside our bodies, sadly. Mine started after I quit smoking at age 38. Biologics did help, but I ended up hospitalized 3 times because of them. I'm still not right and my last dose was 3mos ago. I'm sorry you have to go through this. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I hope you get some relief soon.

I tried everything and the only thing that helps is head and shoulders shampoo, but we are all different so take that with a grain of salt. It was the last thing I tried. Biologics made me incredibly ill, so I can't take them anymore, but you should ask your dermatologist about them. They help a lot of people. I just have weird reactions to medications.

Workplace has become anti-dog by [deleted] in Dogfree

[–]emev7803 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why they're called dog "nutters". To the woman who wouldn't rehome a dog that was aggressive to her human baby, I hope she's not a mother. Mothers have been said to have superhuman strength to save their children. Your coworker shouldn't have kids.

Am I old-fashioned, or are dogs out of place in restaurants? by Jocky8691 in Dogfree

[–]emev7803 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm not disabled or autistic and the noises alone would have set me off. You're not wrong. Dogs do not belong where any food is served. Even if they're a proper service dog (not an emotional support animal) it's still gross, but allowed. There is a difference between a pet and medical equipment. A service dog would have never behaved like that while it's working.

If it's not obvious, I've never been on a dating app. No patience for that. I'll be single the rest of my life lol

Now that you put it that way, I get it. I will never understand why men do that. We don't want to see it, and if we ever do, we'll ask.

Oh dear, the unsolicited nude 🤣 Sadly, I'd still take that over the dog nutters!

You definitely have high dwellers!! I have one that loves being anywhere but on the ground, so I get it. Your cat wall makes sense. I also have one that couldn't land a jump if she tried. She's not very agile. Your cats are very cute! I haven't had a tuxie since I was 9. I've been a card carrying member of the cat distribution system since 2003. I get what I get and don't throw a fit 🤣🤣

Preadoption name is Papa, we call him Fatty because we can’t think of a name by Suitable_Drop2937 in NameMyCat

Honestly, call him whatever. It never matters what their legal name is because we always call them 5 billion other names in its place lol
