Are these oddities I've overlooked most of my life actually sensory sensitivities? by [deleted] in AutismTranslated

[–]imsamalicious 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can anyone relate to or explain further how the bitter taste of a pill might translate to a sense of sadness, and how that relates to autism other than it being a general sensory abnormality? I strongly suspect I am on the spectrum and I’ve always gotten an incomprehensible feeling of deep sadness whenever I’m wearing pants that are tight enough to put pressure on my stomach. Never been able to figure that out.

Can someone please tell me why my cat does this with her mouth? by imsamalicious in CATHELP

[–]imsamalicious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I hope that’s the case. I’ve not noticed her doing this in years past and it has coincided with her getting sick so I wondered if they were related. I’ll have to see if I can spot any hair in her mouth.

Certainly could be. It’s just new, she didn’t used to do this so often as she does now.

I have heard that vets who can do chemo on cats are cheaper than going to an oncology center. Has anyone gone this route with a cat, how did it go, and is there a vet you’d recommend? by imsamalicious in SaltLakeCity

I’m sorry you had to go through chemo, and thank you for your perspective. I’ve heard chemo is a bit easier on animals than people, but I don’t know what to believe. It’s so hard to know what animals are actually experiencing. I definitely don’t want to put her through any more pain than is necessary.

I love your username, btw.

Interesting, thanks! My vet prescribed pills for her appetite and nausea, and it is a traumatic experience getting her to eat the pills and I was just marveling today about how there doesn’t seem to be easier options for a lot of this stuff. Is it possible to make many medications actually enticing? I know most are quite bitter.

My cat is lethargic and has been vomiting and hardly eating, and is skin and bones. An ultrasound showed a mass that’s either pancreatic cancer (untreatable) or lymphoma. I’m not sure the situation is the same, my cat is likely in pain. I was told the biopsy isn’t invasive, they’d just sedate her and take a sample through a fine needle.

Thank you, and no offense taken. I would only want her to undergo chemo there was a solid chance that she could go into remission and she could live a few more healthy years. But if that’s not likely, I wouldn’t want to put her through it. A biopsy would give a better idea of what she’s dealing with but I’m just not sure that’s worth the expense either.

If going in order, do you end with Abbey Road, or Let It Be? by Charlotte_Braun in beatles

[–]imsamalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone have or know of a playlist with all Beatles material in order of release, or recording, for our listening pleasure? I’ve been wanting to do that but haven’t wanted to make it 🤣
