One year old crested geckos is only 7 grams

She reaches around one year old this June. Her tank has a lot of coverage. She is fed Pangea every day. I use repti-safe for her drinking and misting water. The humidity reaches between 60-80%(with the higher end after misting) and temperature is at 75 degrees. She has a UVB light. I don’t see any stuck shed and I don’t see ribs. She is active at night in her tank. She is eating because I see little poops (as evidenced by the big one dumped in her temporary tank white I cleaned her regular one tonight).

Yet she is only 7 grams. I saw the vet who suggested I monitor her weight and said she is on the low side. I will be bringing her back in if nothing changes soon.

I got her from someone else who couldn’t take care of her, so it’s possible she’s a little older or younger than I was told.

Any suggestions? Should I be concerned?

Can someone tell if constant problems is a jinx or curse or not?

Okay I feel very silly asking this.

For over five years now every building I move into has had major issues after I move in.

Electrical, plumbing, fire alarms, weather damage, etc. I’ve lived in a couple states where this has happened. It’s happened again recently in my new place.

I keep telling myself it’s old buildings. Shoddy upkeep. Coincidence. Normal life happening, etc. But I can’t help but feel cursed. Like somehow it’s tied to me.

Is there any way to know if there’s a curse or some negative energy that is wrong with you that can cause this?

I apologize if this isn’t the right place to ask.

A major fear just happened tonight and it’s set me back a lot in my progress

I’m beyond frustrated and upset tonight.

I developed a fear of the fire alarms going off randomly without warning after living in a terrible apartment complex where the alarms went off without warning. My anxiety has accelerated because of it. I’d lay in bad afraid to fall asleep in my new places because I was just waiting for the alarm to go off. I’ve worked hard and convinced myself it’s not common to the point I reached a good place.

Then I moved into a new apartment. My old place had mold. I had to move. I had misgivings about this place but it seemed nice and the area is nice.

They replaced my fire alarm twice. And tonight- you guessed it - it went off for no reason.

I had to call the fire department to turn it off. There’s likely an electrical issue in the apartment. They’ve “fixed” one electrical issue right after I moved it. I don’t trust what they fixed so I never used that outlet.

Now that it went off randomly, I am on my couch, wide awake, and so upset that my problem happened again. It took a while to stop shaking.

I sincerely don’t know what to do. I have to live someplace. But I literally can’t live like this. I left a message for my doctor to see if she can give me some temporary help on Monday, but until then, I’m just going to be tense and upset.
