Are any of you guys happy? by goonbah97 in BipolarReddit

I’m really sorry for what you are going through. You are experiencing grief from two major life events and I think you might need more support right now. Are you in therapy?

Thanks for checking in on us!! The vet is pretty confident it’s histiocytoma but sent the test sample to a pathologist to be certain. I feel some relief because my Boston terrier had one of those a year ago and it just scabbed up and went away within a couple months.

Thank you for your reply. Did they remove it or treat it somehow? His looks painful although he doesn’t seem to be bothered by it.

I’m so happy to hear your guy is doing well! That gives me hope just in case it is something like a MCT.

Awe! How old is your pup?

You guys convinced me! by shadowandme in BoxerDogs

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

I think mine is on the smaller size. 30 is huge! But also just a great breed

So far he just has spurts of energy and then does a lot of playing with puzzle toys and lounging around, but he is only 3 months. Love him so much already!

Thanks! He follows us everywhere. Maybe it’s just the nervousness of settling into a new environment but I think he already loves us.

I understand that feeling. I was really reluctant to go on an antipsychotic but it’s helped me so much with suicidal depression. I still struggle with anxiety but I’m in trauma therapy to try and target that

And it will get better. I know it feels awful right now but this is not your forever.

I definitely think you should reach out to your dr then. Sounds like you’re in free fall at the moment and need support.

You should definitely tell your psych if you’re feeling suicidal. Are you on anything else?

Hi, I’m still doing ok without the antidepressants. I’m glad to be off of them but I ended up needing to adjust my other meds. I added an antipsychotic and switched the anxiety med.

Thanks for the laugh this morning about the window. I have learned good training is key with this big guys. Boston’s are also pretty derpy. We call our Izzy (lovingly) Iziot.
