Hi guys! I adopted 3 month old girls about a week ago. One of them, Willow, has been having consistent diarrhea. I took her into the clinic at the shelter I adopted her from and they said it was just stress and gave me some probiotics for her.

Now, a week later, she’s still going. She’s eating and drinking just fine, playing with me and doesn’t seem lethargic. She’s been curious as ever. I have a vet appointment scheduled on the 15th (the soonest I was able to get.) The nearest emergency vet is an hour drive, and she hated riding in the car when i took her into the clinic.

I don’t want to put her through that stress if I don’t have to. Should I just keep monitoring her for any changes?

My roommate recently started working for the same company I’m working for, in the same position. I really really hoped that she wouldn’t take the job, but alas. As I thought, it’s becoming a big trigger for me.

She’s talking to me about how good she’s getting along with our coworkers. Cool. Yeah. Good for her. But for the past few months I’ve felt so alone in this place.

I have no personality, I have nothing to say to anyone. I can listen but I’m not interesting. I get attached to people, but the moment they act different towards me I withdraw and start to spiral. I want to quit. I want to relapse, or worse. Why can’t I have that? Why do I have to be a blank slate?

Hi everyone! I was diagnosed with BPD by my psychiatrist back in February. It was a long time coming.

I feel like my lack of identity is one of my strongest symptoms, along with the general feeling of emptiness. It’s like I genuinely feel nothing at all until I get hit with everything at once. It’s almost like I’m just a husk of a person until I’m perceived, especially by my FP, and then I play whatever role I need to to make myself feel wanted.

My question is - how do you all deal with this? I can’t find joy in anything. I’m always told that I need to get a hobby or find something to take my mind off of my self-destructive behavior, but I can’t find any joy in anything at all. I’m just a shell unless I’m around someone I love.
