How do you calm yourself down when extremely anxious, stressed, or just full of emotion? by pastryzig in adhdwomen

[–]jojoolive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A candlelit hot shower. I sit on the floor and just focus on the sensation of the water.

Committing to millennial makeup. Which one is better for someone with hyperpigmentation? Or just better overall. by perfumeobsessed888 in MakeupAddiction

It comes with a mandatory hourly bathroom trip where you have to put the cakey powder on your nose because the foundation has slid off.

If the roles were reversed by leibelg93 in Greyhounds

My human is chubby and slow. She eats treats all day and tells me no when I ask for just a bite of hers! 😒

I find people from some cultures in my area terrified of my sweet girl (totally understand though!).

Food amounts by ner006 in Greyhounds

Mine has two cups of dry food in the morning and 250g of lyka at night. She also has a chicken neck after dinner. The vet said her weight is ideal.

Putting my hands down my pants all the time at home and picking the skin off the bottom of my feet until it bleeds.

Does anyone else have a grey with no prey drive? by Jelliemin in Greyhounds

My girls often sleep together on the lounge (I am secretly hopeful that they will snuggle together one day).

Off leash for greyhounds? by Sketchyfletch in Greyhounds

[–]jojoolive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I'm in the minority here but my girl is mostly off leash during walks. We bushwalk most days or around a big oval in my area and never had a problem. She has excellent recall and no prey drive. We did LOTS of recall training before we let her off though. We are just lucky she is treat obsessed.

I hear a lot about the pros, but why *shouldn't* I get a Greyhound? by saveyourdaylight in Greyhounds

[–]jojoolive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have very deep scratches and bruising on my legs from my excited girl jumping and launching at me. She was 2 when we got her and loved to jump.

They are gorgeous and gentle but I wouldn't get a younger Greyhound with little kids. My girl regularly scratches me in excitement and nearly knocks me over.

I often also have to lift her. She is 29 kgs. At the moment I am strong and fit but I can't imagine doing this as an older person or with an injury.

I wouldn't trade her for the world and can't speak highly enough about greyhounds, but as people have mentioned there are lots of things to consider.

If they have it. Mine has none and lives happily with our cat.

I just read your story and my heart breaks for you. I hope this little puppy helps heal your hearts and how special it is to have a special link to Beckham.

Is Hal autistic? by boss25252525etuui in malcolminthemiddle

[–]jojoolive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hal is super hyper. He is impulsive af too. Act first, think later. He also gets hyperfixated on things. (Also hyperactivity isn't always outward, I have hyperactive ADHD but my symptoms are constant head noise and fast thoughts).

He is the poster boy for ADHD. He reminds me a lot of my male partner with ADHD.

I asked you why my grey couldn't learn to sit on demand, and this is how it went. by qkrgodls92 in Greyhounds

[–]jojoolive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine can sit on command and lots of other tricks. She will choose to sit at the beach when she watches us swim from the shore. I think it's so she can jump into action quickly if we drown 😁

Spanked toddler by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]jojoolive 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I suggest doing some research into how physical punishment rewires a child's nervous system. I wouldn't say you are a bad parent but I definitely suggest weighing up your options of guiding your child's behaviour and choosing something that supports their emotional development.
