What's Bothering You?

Spoiler

it's really hard to explain but I'm so stressed here that my anxiety is literally through the roof nonstop and I constantly have a feeling of impending hurt/doom.

I'm not suicidal or anything but I literally feel like my life is in danger. should've never come back home.

why does everyone suck at driving

Ugh I so feel this lately. My work recently went back to being in office this week after working from home since April. I moved further away in May. So now I have to drive on the major highway/freeway here for 45mins twice a day for 5 days a week. The evenings after work are especially awful as the traffic starts to backup and everyone's bad driving habits/low patience really begin to show. So many people are on the highway for a shorter time than me too (the cars anyways). Ugh.

why does everyone suck at driving

I know right? Especially here in New york. Yesterday I almost got I an accident because someone in another lane cut in my lane while I had a green light. If it wasn't for my quick reflexes to stomp on the brake at that time, my car would have been busted. I wish there was a higher age limit in driving, because there are too many teenagers (and I'm not one of them) on their phones and die in car crashes as a result. Maybe like 18 or 21 should be the limit so it can cut down on the deaths of car crashes.
Sorry if that was unnecessary it's just there's a lot of bad drivers where I live

im devastated. the little kitten was still there this morning and came out to see me. i thought maybe it had been fed by its mom since it wasnt immediately hunger crying. little kitten did not want to leave me alone though and climbed onto my hand so i scooped it up and put it in my lap, and he was so cozy and began trying to nurse all over me. i felt so bad and told him there werent nipples there but of course the kitten didnt understand. i put him back down (im just sitting/laying on the walkway next to the one he sleeps under) and i told him id go get food but he wouldnt go back under the walkway and started crying so loud i knew it wasnt safe to leave him like that. i decided he was alone and needed food so i brought him inside and let him walk around on a soft blanket which he loved while i looked up what sort of formula to buy. i then took him upstairs and put him on the bed blanket so my s/o could watch him while i went to buy supplies. little baby was purring so loud and loved my s/o and the blankets but was still trying to nurse. i went out the door to leave and shop but i noticed the mom cat nearby in a bush looking at me and was so so so happy she was still there since the baby will have a much better chance with her since its so young and went and brought the kitten out and put it between the walkways where it was staying. the kitten wouldnt go under and hide and started crying when i backed away but the mom started towards it so i was happy that it was home. but she didnt end up going to get him. she went into another nearby bush and i saw there were 4 kittens there. i decided to pick up the little one and carry it toward the others since it was all alone and mom was too nervous to come get him. mom freaked out and ran away leaving her babies which was really sad :c but i was happy that little kitten was with his family again. well the mom came back and was sitting with all of the kittens for maybe 20 mins. i was so happy they were all together and little kitten was gonna be fed. my s/o and i were watching from the upstairs window since theyre cute but we saw the mom pick up the one previously loner kitten and carry him off. we have no idea where they went but i thought maybe she was moving the whole litter so i didnt want to follow and possibly scare her away from the kitten. well that was a while ago and the other kittens are still playing and cuddling in a bush but the other is nowhere near. i tried to look for him and call out with little mews since he was a very vocal and brave kitten who would walk right out to me for love. i feel devastated. i feel like the mom is abandoning it and i had a chance to save the kitten but i guessed wrong when i gave it back to the mom and now who knows what will happen. i feel so sad. i know i was supposed to do that but i wish i would have known the mom didnt want it. little baby was so sweet and friendly and cuddly and brave ;-; i hope his mom brings him back or were able to find him. we looked for a while but no luck. s/o is boarding around hoping to find them. he got really attached to the kitten in the 2 mins he cuddled him and is also worried the mom abandoned him. i dont know what to do but i just feel so devastated. i could have saved this baby and given him cozy blankets ;-;

just went to check on the other kittens and they are cuddling so sweetly. mom is not back yet and neither is little mewmew. its going to storm soon and im worried. i feel like i really let this kitten down. i just hope hes not alone

Mother cats will sometimes neglect the runt, or one that might be sick, rather than continuing to feed it. This is especially true when they've had larger litters, like this cat, and/or if they're homeless and lack a reliable food source for themselves. Hopefully you're able to find it again!

Well I was pretty sure of this a couple months ago but I'm even sure now...

My guinea pig likely has ovarian cysts. She continues to check off all the boxes for the symptoms. Plus while gently feeling her yesterday I could clearly tell that she has a decent sized lump where a cyst would be.

Fortunately it is treatable, but unfortunately it basically requires having her spayed. Which for cats and dogs isn't a big deal but they typically won't do it for guinea pigs unless they have health issues as it's a very risky procedure for such a small animal. It's very expensive too.

I feel so bad for her as she's the sweetest guinea pig I've ever had and she's still fairly young still.

 

[xSuperMario64x]

I need to talk to my therapist but she's scheduling all the way out to September so :,,,,,,) that's cool

I really need help though, I don't think it's necessarily an emergency warranting a 911 call but I really can't handle this anymore

 

[Dunquixote]

I feel awful, possibly worse than yesterday. Tired and tired of so much. I hate being so bad at expressing myself and socializing. Ear feels plugged up. I am worried the stuff done yesterday on my mouth didn’t help and i’ll need root canal. Jaw feels sore (not pain like before).

posted some art somewhere last night and again I am now asking myself why; tempted to take it down. anxiety go away.

there is a concert going on at nearby. my teeth hurt even though it was just a tooth on my bottom jaw that had work done yesterday

edit: sorry mods. did not see my posts were right after each other. ><

Feeling stupid.

Long story short of it, is that my one coworkers needs to mind her own business. She does this constantly but today really got me mad. She upset an already grumpy dog I was working on to the point that he started to try to bite me, which he wasn't doin before she came over and upset him.

This is the EXACT reason why I get all sorts of dogs that in some cases, she's not even allowed to work with. I don't brush them on their head too hard, I'm calmer, gentler and nicer to them. Leave me alone and let me do my thing. It literally does not affect you how I'm brushing a dog.

I avoid confrontation and any sort of arguments, but if she does this again I'm prob gonna end up yelling at her to knock it off. She's been getting on my nerves with just how often she does it.

Whoops this got long as I was typing it out, rant in spoiler tag

Spoiler: Rant/not feeling my age

Well today she did another thing. A different coworker was taking a dog from me to so I could dry another dog that was old. I'll just call her Ana.

Me: *blow dying a fluff dog
Ana: Hey I'm taking this dog cause *bather* has a dog for you to dry off, he's old
Me: Okay
Ana: *as she's taking the dog
Annoying coworker: *talking to Ana
She (referring to me) never brushes the dogs

At that point I used my 'stern voice' (not yelling but also tryin to be taken seriously) and tell her 'I was brushing the dog, okay *name*?' And what does she do? Laughs I wish I could have thought of something to say back to her in that moment. What is it about me that when I get mad serious that people find it so funny? Is it cause I'm short and younger? It's not funny that you're gettin on my nerves and I'm finally gettin a back bone to talk back to you. It's not humorous that the normally quite, polite person is starting to get snappy at you. It's not amusing when I roll my eyes at you when you tell me to brush a dog cause the TWO SECONDS you looked over, I wasn't brushing the dog in that exact moment.

And ofcourse if I ever did snap at her, actually yelling, people would think I'm the crazy one now, or they'll ask 'where is this comin from?' when it's been slowly and steadily building for months, or all the blame will go on me for not being civil or somethin. Times like these make me feel like such a hot head, even thou I'm the type to just shut up and take it and ignore it, until I can't or it gets me in trouble. I'm not a confrontational person, and I feel like even if I did confront her, she would just laugh it off or something, or not take me seriously. I'm not the type to go tell a higher up either, I would rather deal with it myself (which my default is just takin and ignoring it) until I can't, then I would go to a higher up but still feel 'bad' about it. Like I'm not being an adult who can solve their own problems throu civil discussion, and I have to go be an immature child who goes to tell an adult so everyone can 'play nice'.

I know there will be adults, much older and younger than me, who will get on my nerves and won't be mature in a discussion, and they will be be like that. But it's times like these that make me feel much younger than I actually am and less mature, and I don't like it.

TL;DR I want her to stop and I want to be adult about it. She doesn't even have to be nice to me (not that she is anyway) but I want her to stop being like this to me and want to be taken seriously.

The “R” button is still broken on my switch, and my other set of joycons need to be repaired as well. Trying to get it fixed is a hassle but I don’t want to spend the extra money to buy new joycons. I’ve been okay without using the button so far but the more games I play the more frustrating it gets.

I want to sleep but I can't get comfortable when I lie down.

 

[.: Meri :.]

Just some minor stuff. I've been feeling kinda forgetful lately and it's a bit frustrating; I'm gonna have to start setting reminders for myself. Also, while my hurt knee is improving, I still have to stay off of it and like, man, I really really wanna move around and do some stuff again, but I don't think doing my workouts or any serious cleaning would be a good idea right now.

saw a cockroach in my kitchen again. the traps clearly aren’t helping. :/

 

[Dunquixote]

Tomorrow morning I have to go grocery shopping and I don’t want. Not feeling up to setting up birthday party for friend now :/. I already invested a lot in it, but I just don’t feel good.

I keep messing up in this game and wasted a lot of stamina. :/.

 

[Chris]

Kinda bothered about the notification i got earlier. i am glad i didn’t get an infraction but honestly just feel ****tier.

I sent you that notification. You're more than welcome to come and talk to me about it if it's bothering you.

It's 4am and I'm still awake. Why don't brains come with an off switch?

Go to your local pharmacy. Ask them to order you a container of Boric Acid...they usually come in 100g and 500g tubs, you'll only need the 100g one (I'm guessing, this works for most people). It's not expensive at all, less than 10.00 per tub. And do 1 of 2 things:

1.) Spread the powder along their 'paths'...places you usually find them. As gross as it sounds, they leave what appears to look like sprinkled pepper poop behind. Any bugs that walk through the powder will get particles stuck in the filaments on their legs, and when they clean themselves, the ingested powder will kill them.

2.) Mix a couple tablespoons of the powder in a bottle of sugar water (just mix sugar and water), until you create a paste. Spackle this paste again along their paths, or places where they like to hide (under fridge/stove/dishwasher). They'll eat it, then expire within a little while.

I recommend option 1 here, because they'll track the powder into their 'safe areas' and possibly get some on the other bugs.
Just FYI, this works for ants too...but ants require option 2 so they carry the 'food' home and feed multiple ants with the poison.

I've been feeling very useless lately, esspecially today

My sister told me tnat shes moving in finally with her friend, though shes luved with another one of her friends for a year. She went to college after school, and I decided to spend three years working at a movie theater instead

I cant drive because of my condition, she can

I've tried for weeks to get a job but cant lend a single one. I'm conflicted with what I want to do. As before the theatre I was actually in law but dropped out, and dont know what to do now. I'm starting to feel like a burden, but feeling empty... its emotionally draining when all the resumes you put out there get turned down

I can do house work, I'm not allowed to cook after starting a small fire..

But yeah, I dont have alot going for me right now, and its depressed me. I feel so useless. I wanna do things, but I'm not sure what to do anymore..

Maybe that's why I'm destroying my island, but idk. My friend called me gloomy today, but I have no idea what to do.. everything I do, fails
