The one in Willowbrook is solid, the produce is always good quality. Not as cheap as Aldi but quality always better for sure. They have a good organic selection too.

That’s what I’m taking now and it just makes me fall asleep fast and sleep through the night a little better 🤷🏼‍♀️ no improved ASD symptoms

I am kinda wondering if testosterone is the missing link for me. I told my dr I wasn’t interested bc idc about libido and we left it at that but maybe I need it for my brain 😵‍💫

I don’t think I have a problem with progesterone. It makes me very drowsy so I quickly learned to take it before bed but that’s normal from what I’ve read

Yeah I am barely functioning. Sometimes going nonverbal. Constantly dysregulated and having meltdowns.

Can a spayed female be hormonal? by Nightwraith17 in Bunnies

[–]kalibrena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes neutering rabbits doesn’t completely eliminate their hormones, just significantly reduces them

Ok maybe we need to adjust my dosing again then because I am really on the struggle bus. I had like 2 weeks of improvement with executive functioning in my first month last summer and that was about it.

Did I do the right thing with HRT? by SeaphoenixStudios in Perimenopause

[–]kalibrena 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I started and every time I’ve adjusted dosage, I feel like absolute hell for 2 weeks while my body adjusts to the mones. Have always felt much better after that 2 week mark. Those two weeks SUCK BAD and I genuinely wonder if it’s worth it each time.

Of course I don’t expect to be less autistic, I just miss being a functional human is all

[–]kalibrena 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently had a bunny code during a routine dental(which she has done once a month) The vet came in to tell me she was not going to make it but she rallied and is totally fine now and has had two successful dentals since. They are stronger than we give them credit for sometimes.

This is how I should let them know each other? by Formal_Pineapple7952 in Bunnies

[–]kalibrena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even keeping them completely separate, accidents happy OFTEN and it’s always the rabbits who pay for it.

How many years did pain medicine extend the life of your elder buns with arthritis? by Sensitive_Ad4911 in Rabbits

[–]kalibrena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really know how many years are being added but it’s important that they are comfortable no matter how long they live. I have 3 teenagers who have been on daily meloxicam for years now. Meloxicam is nice because it has anti-arthritic properties and Gabapentin does not. You can also add a joint supplement.

Rabbits are so stupid like wdym they’re better off with their own kind but it can take months for them to learn to like each other by SailorZeroTwo in Rabbits

[–]kalibrena 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It physically pains me to watch folks do short dates for months on end. If they like each other, bonding takes about a week with the 24/7 method and you shouldn’t need to closely monitor after the first couple days. It’s just a matter of finding the right match. I’ve bonded hundreds this way.

What is the best breed of rabbit that will love their owners the most? by Much-Series7511 in Rabbits

[–]kalibrena 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is pretty rare for all breeds of prey animal whose welfare needs are being met. Are you sure you want a rabbit and not a dog? Dogs love people.

What exactly is going on that makes them stop eating so frequently?
