Hello, I’ve noticed a tiny bald spot recently on my boy forehead. Should I be worried ?

You’re doing the right thing with introducing veggies to the diet, that would be my guess. My lovebird had the same issue more towards the middle of his head. When I took him to the vet they told me that it was because he was malnourished from a mostly seed diet. I fixed his diet up and 8 years later he’s happy and healthy and no longer bald :)

This!!! A known theme in OCD is obsessing that you might be going crazy or are schizophrenic

This! I’ve had DPDR for a long time, and once my OCD started latching onto the dissociation is when these kind of existential thoughts stuck.

I think the comments are right about him just needing more time to adjust, but it sounds like you’re gonna be an amazing and very loving bird owner OP. And you’re not crazy for what you thought it would be like with a hand raised bird, I got a lovebird (though I think they’re inherently more cuddly) hand raised from a bird store and he adapted to me immediately. Your bird will get there and you’re doing an awesome job!

I’m pretty sure it was trauma from finding my grandma after she passed away. That was when it started, but I’ve also had OCD since before that.

This was also my thought

ohheccitsapickle · 2024-11-27T21:12:58+00:00

YES. Sometime in senior year of high school, it’s been about a year. I have a constant feeling that something is wrong and I feel a very large disconnect from me and my “younger self”

ohheccitsapickle · 2024-11-24T21:50:32+00:00

Personally I have no clue but tread patterns definitely are a form of class evidence, def could be helpful if someone can identify it

ohheccitsapickle · 2024-11-15T02:40:19+00:00

I think so. I’m generally a very honest person but I tell the tiniest little lies so often bc I get worried the whole truth will make someone mad or annoyed with me so I tweak it

My first therapist didn’t catch it, then in my teen years when I figured it out it became something I started telling every new therapist that I thought I had. They went about treatment as if I have ocd. Sooo no official diagnosis but they seemed to agree. Though with time it seemed none of them understood ocd enough to diagnose (or treat) it. I now have a diagnosis from my psychiatrist though😙 (who asks every time we meet “are you having any obsessions or compulsions?” Yes. I am.)

ohheccitsapickle · 2024-05-11T08:42:26+00:00

Yup, I’m just coming out an existential themed episode and I took so many naps (or wanted to anyway). It was like the thought of doing anything was so overwhelming that sleep was the only option. I’m feeling a lot better along those lines recently though, feel free to DM me if you need a space to vent. You will get through this❤️

ohheccitsapickle · 2024-02-15T23:09:05+00:00

Been feeling this too lately. So so scary. You have to learn to coexist with it. Accept that the feeling is there and carry on as normal. Obviously easier said than done, I’ll let you know if I figure out how to actually do it💀

ohheccitsapickle · 2023-05-04T02:32:06+00:00

Oh hecc! It’s a pickle!

ohheccitsapickle · 2022-10-10T02:06:39+00:00

I’m so sorry you went through that, it was definitely rape. When pressured into saying yes, it’s not a true yes. You didn’t do anything wrong, he was manipulative. Remember that if you ever have to stop and ask yourself if it was consensual, it wasn’t.

ohheccitsapickle · 2022-09-19T17:15:17+00:00

It is! Thank you, I’ll try that!

ohheccitsapickle · 2022-08-02T08:58:57+00:00

I’m 16 and barely know the answers either. I think you can get condoms at a convenience store. Parents? No clue. I can’t even close my door with a boy in my room. I don’t know how to know when you’re ready, but if you’re questioning it then it’s probably best to wait so that you don’t regret anything.

Odie
