This post caught my attention and decided to look at it despite my anxiety

I had to have new anxiety meds called in because all of the political stuff is sending me into panic attacks. I've been avoiding politics as much as possible since the day after the election because it causes so much anxiety.

Wanna be friends? I know a man who has some pigs he'll let people borrow, but I don't know any chefs or butchers.

You just have to make friends with a pig farmer who has very gray morals

What a time to be immunocompromised.

I had a cat that was not an asshole. But he was severely disabled. Bad brain damage, nearly blind, digestive issues, and a heart murmur that turned into heart failure.

Lil dude was too dumb and fragile to be anything but the best cat in the world. The only thing he did that annoyed me, was stealing slices of pizza, eating the cheese off of them, then putting the soggy slice where he knew I'd step on it. It was too funny for me to be actually mad.

He had a great 8 years and knew nothing but complete adoration from literally everyone he met.

I have two brown tabbys and they're on both ends of the brown tabby spectrum. One is fat and angry but lazy and the other is slender and ornery and always wrecking my stuff.

Think anyone would care if I put that Snickers in my fridge?

It's not even a catchphrase. It's a threat

 

Help in this endeavor is appreciated.

 

He's not very fast, but we love the lil guy anyway

 

I didn't even have to crack the lunge whip to encourage her to go. She just ran around all by herself lol

 

She's in heat, so she was doing her best to show off for all the boys while I was exercising her.

 
 

Getting her to come inside is even harder now lol

 

It was free, too. Neighbor was getting rid of it and let me have it.

 

She's the best lol

 

I've been chronically ill my whole life. My job was very accommodating while I searched for actual answers. This is the first job I've had where I can actually take time to care for myself without getting in trouble.

Anyway, I finally got an answer to what my illness is after desperately searching for 20 years. I have lupus, specifically SLE. I always suspected it, but rheumatologists never took me seriously until now. I have to make a 2 hour trip, one way, to see my doctor, but it's worth it.

I sat down with my boss after getting my diagnosis and discussed how the disease could potentially impact my life and working ability. I discussed every important aspect of it so my boss and I are on the same page. He was so supportive and kind and I cried because it is so amazing to be supported like that in the workplace.

I truly hope the rest of you can find/have an employer like mine.

 

She was upset with me at first because she just wanted to graze. Then she got into it when she started trotting around lol

 

She doesn't like me very much

 

I got a diagnosis today after trying to figure out what's wrong with me for twenty years. My grandmother died at a relatively young age of lupus complications and she had to end her whole career at 36 because she was so sick. I'm 27, and I am terrified I'm going to end up like her. Her quality of life was absolutely awful for the entire time I knew her. I don't want that for myself.
