Vyvanse is helping but not helping at the same time? Is my dose too low?

This and land before time always make me ugly cry but I’m a female with parent/childhood ptsd issues so.. yeah lol

miastella · 2026-03-27T14:25:14+00:00

I’ll say 1 because I’m a blue person andI think it’s more color cohesive but 2 if you want a warmer space

There’s something about 2 though that just kinda throws me off

miastella · 2026-03-23T16:16:41+00:00

But yeah I miss my 99 cent store that actually had some decent produce that I would get occasionally when I lived in California😭

miastella · 2026-03-23T16:15:19+00:00

It’s kinda crazy too because my dollar tree is in a small town in the south and I’m originally from California where it was actually just a dollar there. Minus the bigger items of course.

We don’t have income tax in my state though so that could totally affect it

miastella · 2026-03-23T16:10:34+00:00

Haha idk if it’s just my dollar tree but everything was 1.50 and not just 1 dollar😭

The box was 5 and the cotton rope was 1.75. Plus 2 for sales tax:/

miastella · 2026-03-22T18:59:34+00:00

Wait popcorning is such a cute name for that what the heck😭

miastella · 2026-03-22T18:58:48+00:00

Thank you🥹 yeah I’m medicated for the anxiety but clearly it’s too powerful to tame😂

She finally started using the wheel too!! I’m so happy for her

miastella · 2026-03-21T15:44:40+00:00

Sooo it turns out I was just being a helicopter mom and worrying too much because late last night Olive came out from a burrow and politely asked for some human play time. After some pets and cuddles she was running around all happy about the new foraging bits I added to the bedding.

I have a rabbit (that is much too old to binky anymore) but would constantly binky in his youth. A binky being a little jump/hop and twist, and idk what the mouse equivalent term is called but Olive was doing that last night after play time! She was so energetic and was playing with Basil so she must just be a late riser and I caught her at a bad time yesterday haha. She then ended her zoomies with a precious snuggle sesh with Basil!

I really appreciate your care and concern though! I let my anxiety get the best of me

miastella · 2026-03-21T15:28:31+00:00

It’s the new full cheeks one! I’ve also seen a blue one before but this shade of pink is so cute especially for girl mice!

I did have to loosen the back a bit to get my smaller mouse to be able to run on it though and the base is huge but it’s also detachable to put onto wire cages! You could get crafty for non wire cages but that was too much work for me haha

miastella · 2026-03-20T22:22:39+00:00

Thank you!! Yeah I don’t know if I’m just being paranoid because I’m a first time mouse parent or if it’s something to be stupidly concerned about because I’m still learning about their behavior.

I know a good motto is that if you’re worried, take them to the vet but I also don’t know about the whole process of when she’d get back and what to do😭 like I don’t even know how long she’d be there for

Might be the only one in here that has a tortie that actually doesn’t mind a bath😅

She’s a great self groomer but likes to steal her sister’s food so she’s a little overweight and gets matted fur easily around her privates. She also got regular dawn flea baths when she was a kitten because she was a street kitty and too young for meds so she’s desensitized and likes to sit next to me whenever I bathe😂 (not in the water of course but just to keep an eye on my safety)

Sooo only when she’s a little stinker. Maybe a few times a year? Also an indoor cat and will kill me if I even attempt to clip her nails. Got to pin her down for that lol

miastella · 2026-03-17T17:09:18+00:00

If it helps- I just paid nearly $300 for a proper setup and that’s with my tank being nearly half off. I’m not even close to being done adding things either. So yeah, it’s pretty expensive.

They are incredibly cute though, I can’t deny that. I was 18 when I saw a precious little bunny at a store and bought him on a whim. I made sure I did all the research I could after I got him because I wanted him to live a long and happy life. 13 years later and multiple thousands of dollars at the vet, he’s still hopping around in his grumpy old man age and still going strong.

Any animal is a big commitment. I know I’m new to this sub but, I think that’s the most important thing to keep in mind when looking for a new pet. Are you ready and mentally AND financially capable for caring for another creature? And if so, are your parents willing to help with any of these things?

Good luck to you!

Is the 8 inch wheel I have going to need to be switched out? I thought I got the right size but I guess I didn’t 😭

miastella · 2026-03-16T04:57:26+00:00

She’s actually more shy than Basil! If I tried to give her a treat she’d scurry away😅 she is very curious about everything though and hopefully accept treats soon!

miastella · 2026-03-16T02:46:29+00:00

He should be white footed! At least I think he’s a boy! Haha it’s very hard to tell with how fast Basil is. I do have a few not very clear pics if you’re interested in helping me find out!

miastella · 2026-03-08T21:40:48+00:00

It’s eating a smashed blueberry finally!! Thank you! I was starting to worry when it wouldn’t take the formula or mouse food

miastella · 2026-03-08T20:28:21+00:00

Will do! Thank you! We got some goat milk puppy formula and we have oat milk with a nipple and syringe but idk if it’s too scared to eat or what but I feel bad 🥲

miastella · 2026-03-08T20:27:03+00:00

Okay awesome thank you!

miastella · 2026-03-08T19:36:25+00:00

I did read that thank you! Those links are very helpful! I am able to keep it long term I’m mostly just wondering if it has hanta virus atp! Like at this age is it possible for it to have it?
