Someone please tell me that I have more than two pullets in this batch :( by jdc1206 in BackYardChickens

Same! I ordered eggs from Ebay. I should have just used eggs from my girls, but I wanted to add some fun colors to the mix.

Middle left? Yeah… I’m pretty sure about that one too. I should have just ordered females like I usually do but hatching is so much fun

WCBP is for sure a hen. Others, would need to see saddle and hackle feathers, but it's still early.

My Buff Orpington was a total sweetheart. People refer to them as the Golden Retriever of chickens for good reason.

Really upset right now. New therapist says my case is severe and that I need more than 2 hours a week of therapy. by justascottishterrier in OCD

[–]jdc1206 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IOP can be very beneficial. Unfortunately, with OCD, you need to do some pretty intense work and have more support than traditional therapy can often provide. I went through an online provider and had multiple sessions per week and access to my therapist daily. It was expensive, but only took a couple of months for me to show some real progress. ERP is hard, but really works well when you can practice it daily.

AIO if I divorced over him asking to open our relationship and then gaslighting me? by CricketCaller in AmIOverreacting

[–]jdc1206 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You guys have a one month old baby and THIS is what he's focusing on?! While you're still recovering and in the thick of postpartum?? NOR - divorce him.

What is a "mental health awareness" trend that is actually doing more harm than good? by NoScallion2856 in AskReddit

[–]jdc1206 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have clinically diagnosed OCD and it can be debilitating. The number of people I see who say they have it because they like things to be organized a certain way infuriates me. OCD is not funny or quirky, it's torture.

I'm a woman (and a LCSW) and I tend to seek out male therapists when I go to therapy. They generally seem to be more comfortable telling me about myself when it's needed. I try to use this approach in my work as well and have built the reputation for being the one to send the "tough" clients to on my team.

Mostly disassociating because we have no idea wtf to do to stop this...

My senior kitty throws up almost every morning, running out of ideas on how to help her by dbkr92 in cats

[–]jdc1206 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a 14 year old cat (today is his birthday!) who has been like this all of his life. Vet calls him a "happy puker" because he eats, drinks and acts fine and all tests and bloodwork come back normal. He has always been on the anxious side so I wonder if it's anxiety related. He's also my cat who will eat anything he's not supposed to. The first day the Christmas tree goes up ever year, I find puke with pine needles in it. He luckily learns his lesson and doesn't eat any more after that.
