Feel like I’m trying way too hard to be friends with people. I tried a coworker’s food today but he didn’t ask me until I walked in the area he was in. I liked it, and he said he didn’t know I liked that kind of food. Well he wasn’t exactly making an effort to find things out about me. Like, he asked everyone else. I feel not included sometimes and it feels like I’m personally trying too hard. I hate feeling left out.

I gotta stop doom scrolling on Facebook, it just makes me angry. Latest thing I saw was a post saying "stop blaming your parents for how you turned out. You're grown now. The mistakes are your own. Grow up."
Oh yeah?? How else do I explain my crippling anxiety, trauma responses, lack of emotional intelligence other than being in an abusive household? Yeah that's what I thought boomers lmao

adopting another cat has not gone well, and unfortunately i don’t think i’ll be able to keep her. she is the sweetest angel on the planet, and i adore her so much, but my first cat will not stop terrorizing her. we’ve gone from hissing and growling to my first cat pouncing at and chasing my new cat around every single time she sees her. my mom’s injured herself trying to keep them separate, and no one is sleeping. i’ve barely eaten since we brought her home, and i am physically unwell. i haven’t had anxiety attacks so intense since i was 14! things have been so so bad and i’m devastated. i feel so guilty. my poor cats.

you dont just automatically unlearn all the pain and trauma you dealt with from your parents. it would be amazing if we could, but that's not how it works. the way that's worded above makes the person sound like they're basically saying younger people today like being depressed and don't want to take responsibility (which is ironic bc it seems like a lot of Gen X/Boomers themselves hate taking responsibility for stuff they did wrong).
it's unbelievable how easy it is to say stuff like that, which has no substance at all, and people will just be like "yeah exactly!" they're disgraceful.
edit: also just realized, "the mistakes are your own"??? so basically parents are the most perfect and genuine people and kids are just brats. that's some fine logic there
I was having really bad anxiety last night for some reason, and I'm kinda feeling it this morning so hopefully it stops soon. there are also some things that are really bothering me but I won't mention it here, luckily I have an appy with my therapist at 10 so I can talk to her abt it.

They take our phones at school now, So now I can't talk to my s/o, we live in different states so we can only talk on the phone. It sucked and I wish they wouldn't take our phones, also I got my knee problems where my knee can go to the side whenever it pleases. What will they do if I'm in the bathroom and can't get help?
I had cats like that. Is one a male? They are sometimes like that. But you can cut down on that by giving them more stimulation. Are you able to take the aggressor cat outside? You can get them a harness/leash. Sometimes being cooped up in a small building where neither of them have enough room to roam freely can do that. So giving them outdoor time can sometimes help. Or stimulating them with toys and the such so they can get rid of that extra pent up energy so it doesn't end up coming out in the form of anger on your new cat.
Sorry to hear this Xara, I hope it works out for you!

idk if this is too late or not, but have you tried the Jackson Galaxy method of introducing cats? I only have one cat but when I first adopted her I did this to introduce her to my dogs. Her fosters told me she was afraid of dogs when I first got her, but after doing this she is now obsessed with the both of them. It might be worth a shot if you still have her, but it can take some time. I think my cat stayed in my room about a month and a half before she was allowed out in the rest of the house.
The jehovahs witnesses keep coming back to my door. They loved knocking on all the doors of our poor ass neighbourhood. I asked her for proof of jesus and the lady tried, but I told her I wasn't conviced. She was like "I'll be back with proof Noah, you'll see". You keep on trying Miriam.
I'm so sorry xara.I don't have any advice to offer, but I hope it works out for you.
thank you guys for taking the time to reply. i unfortunately had to take my new kitty back to the shelter this morning. she’s an angel, but the situation just kept getting worse, and neither cat was happy. the stress was making everyone sick and tearing the household apart, and i didn’t want to subject my cats to it anymore. i feel like crap about it, but i know this is probably what’s best for everyone long-term.
thank you again for replying and for the advice. i appreciate it

Oh course my parents are quick to give me crap for every little thing I do wrong, but the moment I open my mouth to point out something they did wrong, they flip out and counter it with something I've done wrong. Tried telling my step-mom to stop leaving her cigarette buds in the cups because I have to wash them, and she full-on berates me in return.
"Well you didn't do jack-**** yesterday and you never do a good job cleaning and I had to pick up your period blood when you took a shower yesterday." Honestly such a stupid argument because my period ended days before my shower. And wouldn't the water wash it away anyways?
I was so pissed off I locked myself in the bathroom and cried. I'm so ******* frustrated with them. It's like I'm in no position to tell them anything 'cause they're perfect in any way and can't do wrong in their eyes.
My parents want me to be transparent and open-minded, but they can't seem to return the favor. It's not like I ever get a "Oh I'm sorry, I'll try not to do that next time." Nonono, I get lectured or yelled at instead.
I feel like I'm over-reacting like usual, but I just don't know what to do anymore.

I was in a battle and a gold digger with 99K. infiltrated my low room between 2.5K and 5K (I have about 5K BR). I ended up beating him on the first battle in which I got first and he came in second… and I only got +7 for winning.
Makes no sense how gold diggers can get +17 for first in the same rooms and I’m getting +7.

I'm sorry to hear that, but I agree it was probably the best thing for everyone. I'm sure she'll get adopted out soon and be happy in her new home! Even though you couldn't provide the life for her that you wanted, you still took good care of her and placed her wellbeing first, and that's really great of you.thank you guys for taking the time to reply. i unfortunately had to take my new kitty back to the shelter this morning. she’s an angel, but the situation just kept getting worse, and neither cat was happy. the stress was making everyone sick and tearing the household apart, and i didn’t want to subject my cats to it anymore. i feel like crap about it, but i know this is probably what’s best for everyone long-term.

It's stupid. It's like the whole atrocious gsp system they have in place for Smash online. You can win several matches and lose all of those points in just one single match that you lose.(Mario Kart 8)

Or if someone ragequits then no one gets points despite the fact that you may end up taking 1st place. So someone can get butthurt and ragequit at the last second.
I'm sorry to hear about that. You never know how things will work out. So my suggestion (or others) could've not made any difference. It's hard to make that kind of call, but you stuck with it and did the responsible and right thing. For everyone's well-being as well as both cats. I am sure that she will be adopted again in no time.
