my dad's a piece of shit and is now flooding me with hurtful texts because I chose not see him today. at least I got to see star wars today.
That really sucks and is not something that should be put on your shoulders. I'm sorry you had to deal with thst today. The new Star Wars was good, right? I loved it.
If they really cared about you, they would understand your situation.
Christmas shouldn't be about materialistic bullshit anyway. You don't need to buy and give things just to prove you love people.
No it isn't about materialism, but it is about being able to show celebration or appreciation and a nice gift has always been part of me. I used to spend hundreds on trinkets for old friends (who actually don't even speak to me anymore) - just to show that I appreciated their existence, though it was never reciprocated.
So in a lot of ways the only happy thing I have left from Christmas is my ability to make my brother, mother and father smile when I surprise them with something they actually like. In a lot of ways I just hate the holiday season because it reminds me, how truly alone I am in my life.
The holidays are not great for everyone. And some years are better than others. So this year sucks. I'm very glad that it's over. But we always have next year. That only gives us 366 days (leap year) to get shit right. Feeling alone is the worst. I hate it. But we can get things back on track. Probably. I'm here for you if you ever want to work through feeling alone together.
Don't understand how some people can be so cruel, and seemingly not even fucking care.
The times in my life that I've been the shittiest person are the times when I've been going through some tough shit. I'm sorry that you went through that pain. It's always the worst when we care the most for people who don't feel the same way. It makes you feel stupid and worthless. I hope that you're able to find happiness from different means than those people that are being cruel to you
i try not to post in here often, because i don't want to complain about trivial things when there are real troubles happening for other people, but i'm so upset. today, we were told that one of our guinea pigs is dying and there's pretty much nothing we can do about it. the vet says surgery would cost several hundred dollars, and it's not guaranteed that he would wake up from the anesthesia. we already lost our pup this year, and i'm so heartbroken that we might lose him too.
Oh no, that's awful beebee. Losing pets really is so, so difficult. The little guy was clearly loved for his whole life though so that's nice. Sending some good thoughts your way.

thank you. after doing some research and some crying, i can't let him die without trying this surgery, that's not fair. my sister is completely heartbroken, so i'm just going to dip into my savings and figure it out. i just made an appointment with the vet for tomorrow, so now we can just hope that everything goes well. i'm really scared about what will happen, but it's our only option to try and save him.

I had a work acquaintance who had to have emergency surgery for his pup. He opened up a Care Credit account. It's interest free for at least up to year. Don't know if this helps any or if you'd rather just get the payment out of the way. Just wanted to throw that out there.

Aw beebee. Pet troubles are scary. I hope the surgery is a success.

I am so sorry, beebee. We had a dog that climbed & jumped out of his kennel, breaking his leg. We paid over $600 for the surgery. I sincerely hope all goes well. For all of you. We're getting a guinea pig Saturday, and I have been checking out the lloyd & gerby instagram to get ideas. I am so sad for you guys.
thank you Jaz and FuzzyWarbles, i'll keep that in mind in case it gets to be too much for us. custeph, i noticed that your daughter started following their instagram too. thank you for the good wishes, and hopefully i'll have better news come tomorrow. please share photos when you get your pig!

My family paid a ton of money for a risky surgery for our very old pup McDowell and he went on to live for another eight years. Even if he hadn't have made it it still would've been worth the shot. Hope everything works our for you and the little guy.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Hopefully the operation will work; I know how hard it is to see a pet in pain. I'll be keeping y'all in my thoughts.
Found out my 13 year old has been cutting herself. It's been going on almost a month and I just now saw... my heart hurts for her and I don't know what to do. We called her therapist and they talked, I just wish there was something more I could say or do for her.

Thinking of you today! I think it's very sweet that you're doing all you can for him, it's a testament to how much you care for the sweet little critters.

I hope everything goes well today. It's tough when a pet needs surgery. I did the same thing when my dog needed surgery and dipped into my savings and used care credit. I also didn't feel right not trying something before just putting him down. Big or small animal they're still a part of you're family. <3

I'm so sorry to hear this and I am sue you are doing all you can. Hopefully talking with her therapist helped ease her emotional pain. I will keep y'all in my thoughts and prayers because I know how hard it can be to watch a loved one struggle with mental health.

I'm sorry that both she and you are going through that. My kid went through self harming too. Definitely encourage opening up to the therapist and do frequent sweeps of her room for objects she can cut with. One thing you can try is buying a big pack of different colored markers, washable or permanent. Suggest that anytime she feels like she needs to cut herself that she can try drawing anywhere on her body. It can be anything, shapes, squiggly lines, pictures, words, lyrics, etc. If she does draw on herself never act disappointed about where or what she has drawn. I wish you luck and hope you can get to the bottom of her problems soon.
i figured i should post a follow-up to my last posts. i apologize in advance for a lengthy post, but it's been an emotional week. we took little lloyd to get surgery on the morning of new year's eve, and the vet made us feel pretty good about our choice. she called a few hours later to tell us he survived the surgery. we all celebrated and we brought him home. we cancelled our new years plans to stay home with him, since there was still a risk of something happening. we had to syringe feed him baby food and make sure he was breathing okay (he had to "breathe out" the anesthesia). he seemed to be doing well overnight and the next morning. my parents watched him while we went to see a movie just to get out of the house for the first time in a few days. when we came home, we held him for a while and fed him. soon after everyone showed up for new years dinner, lloyd crawled up onto my sister's neck and passed away. it felt like he waited for the whole family to be there. it's been a pretty rough start to the new year, with lloyd passing and this week also would have been our pup's 14th birthday. thanks for letting me share with all of you.

Oh beebee, I am so very sorry. Sending hugs to you & your sister. Y'all were amazing to Lloyd, and I know you will miss him greatly. But you did so good by him.

Arg so sorry I dealt with this with my daughter at about the same age. I only found out because a school counselor called me. She hid it well. She still has scars from it.
Message me if you want to talk about it. There really is no quick fix for it, you just have to work through it with her.

Normally I get pretty depressed during October, November, and December. This year I was so busy with various things that it never ended up happening. I think it finally caught up to me now though, since things have slowed down and I have four days a week with not much better to do. Ugh.
I want to get a new job, and hate having to go out and try to find one. I don't want to look, I just want to show up and jump in and do something different.

Aww beebee I'm sorry. I know you loved that little guy.

Ignore this if those months are specifically triggers for you, but if it's just a seasonal thing you might want to check your vitamin D levels. I have seasonal depression but supplementing with vitamin D has helped LOADS. Enough that I only dip in and out of the blues instead of getting full-blown depressed. Vitamin D, exercise, and forcing myself to go be social have been the most helpful during the winter. During the summer I'm fine but winter is usually struggle season for me.
And I totally get you with the job thing. Actually going and doing the whole job search thing is difficult when you know you don't NEED to be doing it. It's easy to settle for what you've already got.

I know, right?
Six months ago I switched from Day shift (Mon-Thurs) to Weekends (Fri-Sun) in order to sneak an internship in and not alert anybody in management at my current company. Now it's over and I'm itching to go back to Days. I'm also itching for a new job, yet (a) hate having to look and (b) like you said, it's difficult when you don't NEED to. I've been at my current position for five and a half years now, and for as much as I don't like it - it's become a comfort zone and something reliable.
I've always struggled to find jobs, at least since I got my bachelor's in 2007. I seem to fall back on some sort of employment services, either state backed or private temp agencies. Which that may or may not be a good thing.
My uncle just passed away. He got sick around Christmas and we found out he had Asbestosis and lung cancer from the asbestosis. Last night I got the call that he wasn't doing well, and before my dad's flight even landed today, my uncle had passed away. I am now waiting on funeral details so I can book early enough to not break the bank and fly up to Philly/Jersey (he is near Trenton). These last 3 months have really fucking sucked. Trying to focus at work today has become a joke.
