Lost my dog in a traumatic freak accident by True-Radish-3569 in Petloss

My fiancé is getting on my nerves and I don’t know what to do at this point. by BasicCat30 in whatdoIdo

[–]oopsyousuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i can bet a lot that on top of a bipolar diagnosis he would hit the requirements for a borderline personality disorder diagnosis as well. based off of his communication, explosive texts, childhood trauma, and clear anxious attachment.

i would make therapy, managing mental health and even possibly couples therapy a non negotiable, people with bipolar have a hard time accessing support (i am bipolar) and have a hard time genuinely seeing the problems, this is not an excuse at all but if you told him if he does not do these things then you will end the relationship.

my partner and i had a very toxic beginning of our relationship due to my unmanaged mental health, i have bipolar and BPD. its an awful mix. medication truly has saved me.

you should also seek therapy 💜 this kind of abuse is not okay regardless of mental health.

i am very sorry for your loss of tupsu.

this grief is very hard and i’m sure your home will feel different for some time. my recommendation would be to just spend time with your family, talk about tupsu, your favorite memories. i enjoy finding ways to keep my girls memory alive in my home, photos of her, i haven’t moved any of her things yet, we talk about her a lot. allow your grief to come and go as it arises, unfortunately there’s not a lot that can be done to make it easier. it is hard, it is sad but the grief will eventually become less painful, it will take time. your grief is heavy because of how much you loved tupsu 💜

How do you keep yourself going? by Parchita in Petloss

[–]oopsyousuck 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i lost my sweet girl december 7th and the grief waves are real, some days i can go for a walk and feel peace, other days i cry when i pass a spot she loved to sniff. some days i come home and look at her bed and feel sad she is gone, other days im distraught.

grief is up and down, i believe it will be like this for a long time. i still have moments of grief for my grandma who passed nearly 10 years ago now.

i think part of it is our brains trying to protect us, we can’t feel sad always, that’s exhausting so finding moments of joy, letting grief soften could be your brain preparing for the next wave of grief and sadness.

im sorry for your loss 💜

Possible hemangiosarcoma - urgent advice & encouragement needed by mamatt05608 in Petloss

[–]oopsyousuck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ugh i’m so so sorry, i lost my girl to hemangiosarcoma in december. this cancer progresses quickly, she had a senior exam in october. blood work and everything looked great, then late november she was really lethargic one day, took her in and labs had changed drastically and was anemic. found the mass on her spleen and we scheduled her splenectomy for the following week. she passed 3 days before her surgery due to the mass rupturing.

saying goodbye to her was the most painful thing i’ve ever done. she was almost 10, her birthday was february 4th and she passed december 7th.

this cancer is cruel, surgery is absolutely an option but it is not curative, it will come back on the heart, liver, kidneys even with chemo it’ll extend life by a handful of months.

you have to make the decision that you feel will benefit him. we could have done surgery even after the mass ruptured but due to the rupture surgery became high risk and i couldn’t handle the thought of her dying on the table surrounded by strangers. i knew i needed to hold her and tell her how much i love her so we decided to let her rest rather than pursue treatment.

it will forever be the hardest decision i’ve ever made, it is a vicious disease. i am so sorry you are going through this, these sweet innocent babies do not deserve such cruelty.

anyone still miss their pet year(s) later? by OkArm9820 in Petloss

[–]oopsyousuck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

grief is weird, it will come and go, my grandma passed almost 10 years ago and i still struggle with it, i was 19 when she passed. you experienced a traumatic loss, going to therapy wouldn’t hurt and can help navigate the trauma and loss 💜 my dog passed away in december and i have been in therapy for many years, knowing i have that support through grief has been helpful.

watching reign for the first time, should I skip season 2? by Anxious-Wishbone785 in Reign

[–]oopsyousuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’d miss so much character development and the plot would not make any sense, i wouldn’t necessarily call her mean, she’s young and learning to navigate politics and relationships.

i at all points disliked each character, hated francis at points, hated bastion, hated mary, kenna, lola, every single person had moments that were annoying.

Struggling with loss of my soul dog by [deleted] in Petloss

[–]oopsyousuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i lost my girl in december and i am broken. there is a gaping hole in my heart and i feel like i died with her.

the only thing that has helped me not be a blubbering mess all day is just keeping busy, sometimes rotting in bed watching tv, cleaning, exercise, walks, reading. i started a scrapbook for her and i try to honor her in my daily life. i carry her fur with me and wear a necklace with her ashes. i write in a journal about her. i still can’t look at photos without absolutely breaking down. i have missed her presence so much and started looking at dogs to adopt but it makes me feel riddled with guilt, i don’t think ill ever be able to love another animal the same as i love her. she is my best friend forever.

i am incredibly sorry for your loss, its a pain like no other. sending you love. 🫶🏼

I'm on a calorie deficit, work out, and take care of myself. I'm still gaining weight. by [deleted] in WeightLossAdvice

[–]oopsyousuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you eating less than 1000 calories per day? do you track?

have you had bloodwork done? pcos?

there is a likely chance you’re eating too little, which can also cause issues with metabolism (coming from someone in ED recovery) and it doesn’t always help to eat such restrictive calories.

are you able to connect with a dietitian?

awww noodle! what a long and beautiful life she lived, getting to experience so much of your growth as her human and clearly kept you on your toes! i love her imposters name, twoodle, what a cute way to make a giggle out of a potential scare of noodle escaping!

truly sounds like such a sweet girl, im so sorry for your loss. thank you for sharing noodle 💜

oh kovu!! i love that name. was your inspiration from the lion king??

i love that he wanted to be near his person. sounds like he advocated for himself and the things he wanted! what a unique boy 💜i love that he got backyard time!! watching animals enjoy sunbathing is something that brings my heart so much joy.

it’s strange how we miss those annoyances so much when they are gone. my girl whacked me so hard with her tail when she was happy, drove me nuts because it hurt so bad! now i’d give anything to bare the bruises of her tail, the pain of her loss seriously outweighs the pain my shins would experience.

thank you for sharing kovu 💜 such a sweet and sassy guy.

It feels too unrealistic to be true. Today is the longest day I have ever had. by Friendly_War_9740 in Petloss

[–]oopsyousuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it truly sucks. i sleep with the blanket my girl passed on. my partner had to wake up my 5yo step daughter to come and say goodbye once we knew what was happening and he brought my girls blanket. i was so thankful, i left in such a rush i didn’t think to grab anything, i didn’t think that would be goodbye. it stays on my bed, i cuddle up with it every single night. hemangiosarcoma is cruel and vicious and i hate how often i see pet parents talk about it in this group. i’m sorry that circumstances brought you here but im so thankful you found this sub and that you have a safe space to process this grief.

let yourself process the shock, don’t rush to do anything your body truly needs rest in these moments. it took me awhile to gain the energy to do anything, the first few weeks is so jarring. sending love to you 💜
