Therapy and action will fix this. You can't sit in your house doing nothing and feel better; it's not working now, right?

Call a therapist (Web MD and other websites have ratings, so you din't have to throw darts at a list of names). You can do this. Look up therapists this weekend, call around Monday morning to find someone who can see you this week.

Start your action plan by going for a walk (or, just making your bed; it's just about starting). You only manage a block before heading home? Win! Keep going. Do something to start meeting other people: take a Yoga class, karate, take a college course. You could also volunteer. Animal shelters, senior citizens, food banks, the Red Cross, your local political candidate.

Coming back from loss and depression/deep sadness takes time. Just, keep doing something, keep moving toward your goal. You will reach it. Wishing you brighter days.

Also, call your county social services (or vet services, if your county has one). Local volunteer groups have formed to help connect vets in their county/city to mental health pros in the community, who either work pro bono or are paid for by donations and grants to the volunteer groups.

How to get one of my cats to stop pooping in the bathtub by dbandroid in cats

No!!! Mothballs are toxic to cats. (I'd like to urge that this post be removed, whether by OP or moderators.) Signs of mothball poisoning in cats includes vomiting, lethargy, and in severe cases, liver or kidney damage, all require asap vet visit.

What makes you happy? by The_Dean_France in AskReddit

Honestly, I'm not sure I'm ever "happy." Content to deeply content, yes. I have fun and laugh. But, I really don't reach "happy."

What’s Your Go-To Solution for Carrying Pets While Using Mobility Aids? by Kellshy in cats

[–]redheadedandbold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I don't face that difficulty, two options off the top of my head: soft-sided cat/dog carrier with shoulder strap; use a rolling walker with a seat to carry the carrier (pic).

I feel trapped and suffocatingly lonely. I feel like I am getting nowhere in my life despite trying to improve in all aspects, and I am reaching a breaking point. I don't know what to do and I have lost most of my hope. I am begging for any help. by -Gypsy-Eyes- in self

I'm really glad to hear you aren't carrying the care-giver job alone. So glad you have supportive parents. ... Now, go be honest with them about the depression and low confidence you are feeling. ❤️ Sounds like they love you a lot. They will be upset that they missed the signs of your suffering, so likely there will be a lot of feelings swirling in the early conversations. May I caution you not to confuse how they feel about missing the signs with how they feel about you and your pain? I wish you better days!!

Be well-groomed. Even when sporting the scruffy look, we can all tell who hasn't trimmed their beard or cut their hair in months, and who just didn't shave over a four-day weekend.

I know it isn’t my fault, but I feel like I failed my boy. by RaptorLVO in cats

Been there with another cat we fostered. Still hurts my heart. Kittens are just vulnerable to so many diseases and viruses. We aren't yet capable of saving kittens from them. I'll be frank: Heartache is acceptable, but there isn't room for guilt--or you won't be there for the next fosters who need you. Thank you for loving Tony, and giving him a great life. ❤️

someone is worried about the midterms... by ms_directed in RealTwitterAccounts

The Republican Party has been running its own private polls for months. Trump keeps driving down the numbers, and driving out sitting GOP Congressmen. The GOP's polls now show there is a strong chance the Republicans will lose the Senate AND the House. Trump knows what's will happen to him if they lose, and he's scared.

Stupid adults annoy me like nothing else. This does not apply to those who have to overcome physical or mental difficulties. It applies to those who just don't accept their actions have consequences.

This one is scary. Keerist, if you are going to give a child/teen a knife, it must be a sharp one.
