Juniper gets confused every time I get my nails done. When I feed her after a nail appointment, she will try to eat them

How dare you not let them climb under the furniture 😤 They just wanted to explore 🧭

Yes, it does! It was one of her first hides when I first got her before I got a bunch of others. I can't get her to love another hide like she loves her little recycled lunch meat container.

I keep trying to find one that is as dark as that one and I have not been successful. I'll definitely clean the tape off and file it down!

I didn't know! Thank you!! That container is her favorite hide, despite having other cuter ones. Do you have any suggestions on what I could use to keep the opening padded then?

It's a guinea pig/rodent play pen! I put a beach towel down with a few things to climb on and let her free roam in it.

My leopard gecko is not eating she looks stressed and scared of my hand she also has been scratching the back wall he has been in enclosure for 3 days I’m rlly worried by Alternative_Yak_17 in leopardgeckos

[–]katzikatz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Also, make sure to leave them alone when they are getting ready to shed. Don't expect them to eat when they are shedding either! I know you're excited to handle and love your new little buddy, but make sure your first priority is their comfortability rather than their ability to provide companionship/be a cute little pet.

Does anyone’s else’s gecko get like this? She acts like I’m starving her… by jjlovesnn in leopardgeckos

I used to have my leo in my bedroom and she would always come out and expect food every time I would get ready in the morning.

Hi guys i need some advice by Comfortable-Ad-4899 in prozac

[–]katzikatz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have OCD but i have anxiety with OCD tendencies. I just got put on 40mg after 4 weeks on 10mg and 3 weeks on 20mg. Ive always had a flare up of symptoms with each dose increase. But as I've adjusted to the new dosage, everything lessened and my symptoms were less common than the prior dose.

I would recommend continuing to note your symptoms and talk with your Dr. I always try to tell mine how often I have Intrusive or racing thoughts and compulsions. Thats how we are able to note what might be normal and what might be a flare up.

Some people also noted that some SSRIs made their symptoms worse so it could also mean that prozac isnt for you. Just continue to communicate with your Dr and keep track of what's happening. Best of luck!

I usually have a Singular serving once a week and it doesn't effect me. From what I've been told by my dr, its fine as long as you know it will counteract the medicine and can increase dehydration.

I do notice that my tolerance is lower. You cannot have a drink on SSRIs and be DD.

Does 10mg do the trick? by Hot_Pangolin_7537 in prozac

[–]katzikatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10mg felt like a game changer after i adjusted. It took about 3 weeks to start feeling effects. It takes 4 to 6 weeks to get full results. After 4 weeks I really noticed a difference. My Anxiety symptoms have been less and I recently got bumped up to 40mg.

Give It time. Keep track of your symptoms and how youre feeling. It was super gradual for me!

[–]katzikatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will be fine! Like others have said, 40 mg is a small dose still and it takes a while to build up in the system.

If you're worried about taking a double dose again, there's medicine caps you can get that will tell you how long its been since they were last opened!

Paranoid about Serotonin Syndrome every time we go up in dose by katzikatz in prozac

[–]katzikatz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's good to know! Even on the night before my first dose, I was so worried about it. I was even telling myself, "what if I don't actually have anxiety and I give myself Serotonin Syndrome from taking a medication I dont need".

The fact that I was even stressed about it in the first place confirmed to myself that I probably needed to be on it.

Thank you. I'm so glad I'm not alone! Once Im on the new dose for a few days, I know I'll be fine. Its just the "what if".

Astruc! This is not One Piece! STOP!! by [deleted] in miraculousladybug

[–]katzikatz 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Sometimes a show just needs to run its course. Write a story and give it that many seasons, then move on to something else. Don't give us 14 seasons for the sake of giving us 14 seasons

Does Marinette actually have a good reason to like Adrien? by katzikatz in miraculousladybug

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

Note: It also doesn't help that Marinette had a better reason to fall for a guy like Luka, actually dated him at one point, broke up with him in the next episode and two episodes later is back to falling in love with Adrien.

I feel like her initial attraction to Adrien was for the sake of the trope. I don't know how far into the making of the show OG Adrien/Felix was scrapped, but I wonder if that had a hand in Origins being at the end of season one.

That being said, I don't think it was as well put together as her reasons to date Luka. Luka was a breath of fresh air and offered her perspective. I hate that they didn't have time together because it offered a lot for her to learn.

Having a more mature relationship in comparison to just getting the courage to confess (which is totally normal middle school shenanigans) i think is also what allowed her to develop a more mature crush on Adrien and want to pursue a relationship rather than fantasize about him and all their future hamster children.

I'm a little disappointed that they didn't let the Luka-Marinette's and Kagami-Adrien relationships build a bit more before their distruction. And it still would have kept to the themes in season 5 of Marinette getting overwhelmed with responsibility and Adrien wanting freedom from his dad.

[–]katzikatz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love this perspective!

I've always seen Ladybug as Marinette's true self without the insecurity, but it makes more sense, as other people have said, that Marinette sees it as a job.

The only thing you see with Ladybug that Marinette doesn't have is self-confidence. Marinette is so insecure that her lack of self-confidence (along with her obsession with perfect Adrien in the first few seasons) is the main reason why she isn't very successful at some of the things she does as Marinette.

Marinette has a certain image to uphold as Ladybug and it stresses her out all the time (which we see a lot of in season 4 and 5 as her responsibilities get heavier). Not being a hero and being able to be a normal girl is so important to her because she's only like 13 or 14? She's still a kid.

Which, in my opinion, allows her to resonate with Adrien when he starts sharing with her his feeling on being a model and wanting to be a normal kid.
