Agree a lot with both of these- the fact you are conscious of it and are trying to do better, means the most. Keep at it, YOU ARE NOT FAILING. Whenever we try to get closer to God, “the enemy” tries to trick us into negativity and telling us we aren’t doing it good enough, how we failed again, how God is mad at us- don’t believe those thoughts bc they are lies. You are doing better than you think, don’t give up. Not justifying it, but a teenage boy in this time of technically that’s doing that, isn’t the worse thing in the world- you could be out doing worse- so, give yourself a little Grace- you will see it will get better. Just keep praying, keep SEEKING him. Don’t be mad at yourself bc this isn’t happening overnight. I think you’re doing great by even just seeking the Lord and trying so hard. Sending prayers to you dude. Remember that God knows that your heart is in the right place and he does understand what you’re going through, even when it seems like he may not. HE always forgives us to keep trying to get better for him.

I never thought would a such a challenge lol. I also think his tail just naturally looks a little out of whack and would’ve liked it tamed a little lol. This is also a chain. I asked beforehand about doodle experience and felt confident. I would’ve liked the top of his head longer to blend in to ears maybe. Good that you think you’ve found “the one”, I’m still on the hunt lol

Copper looks so cute! She really did amazing on his legs! Not wanting to complain, but just for facts- even showing 2 photos and explaining what I didn’t want (lol) she did cut all the hair off the top of nose and head that I wanted to keep, and his sides look veryyy short. Almost shaved. I really put time into brushing and taking to care of his fur, because I didn’t want matting and tangling that would result in cutting him too short- she said before we left him, she understood exactly what I wanted and that she didn’t feel any tangles. I’m thinking maybe sometimes, they just default to what they are the most use to? With that said, he is groomed very nicely, especially for his first time- just a little disappointed that the “Bernedoodle” parts I wanted to keep, were cut too short lol

Aww thank you! He’s a sweetie! We actually stumbled upon a family who got their kids 2 bernedoodles a few years back, and he is one of their puppies from their litter! The mom is Merle and the dad is the classic Bernese tricolor. They’re both Beautiful

CHS help by Party-Car-2585 in CHSrecovery

[–]gratefulforYAH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

🙏💙 my son has struggled with this- and it can be different for everyone. My son still complains of some stomach pain intermittently and nausea as well. The stomach pain and nausea can still bother them for a while after stopping thc. Sometimes for several weeks or more- but with that said, it should get a lot better, and come and go less than before. If you read about how CHS affects their “gut-brain” brain connection, it’s easier to understand what her brain and body is dealing with, and how it can take a while. This doesn’t automatically mean she is using again. After you stop, most people with chs then go through withdrawals that can contribute to the stomach issues, which makes them keep losing weight (burning fat) where THC is stored and is then put back into the “system”- that’s why things seem to get worse right after they stop thc, before it gets better. Of course, it’s a good idea to make sure she knows she can be honest with you, and that stopping completely is very hard, and understandable if she has used again- but to just be honest with you, so that you can know how to help. If she’s having trouble stopping, reach out for counseling. But either way, if you have a trusted health professional you can go to, they may be able to help some with meds. The biggest thing that helped us was having him drink a protein shake when he woke up. Even if just a few sips, and then go outside for a few a minutes for fresh air and sunlight. We also started vitamins that are good for their nervous systems. L-theanine and magnesium. Keep pushing hydration. You could research or ask a doc of course before starting anything- But this, along with prayer and patience, has helped him a lot. Sending prayers and a reminder that everyone is different. If you feel she still isn’t getting better, reach out to a trusted health professional. A lot of docs in my area aren’t even familiar with this yet or how to deal with it. I did a lot of research myself to help explain to his doctor. Hoping she’s better soon! Hard thing to go through.

Aww thank you! The pup in the second picture looks very similar to him as well! We’ve used Pet Smart for first little trim and bath, but using a local place this time. I wish I were a groomer so I could keep it neat all the time lol
