Yessss, and this isn’t a knock on drugs because you can tell Terry is someone who is just having fun on vacation, but you can tell Arabella has total learned dependance on it. Even though I don’t like the sex part of what Biagio did, I can’t even count how many times the goodness of strangers are who helped when I was…

As someone a month out of rehab and in recovery for cocaine dependance, this episode was a hard watch for me, it was also a good reminder of the often dangerous situations I got myself in again and again. I never saw the party scene depicted so accurately when you’re someone who really can’t switch that switch off, but…

@DoNotGiveAShit thanks for advocating on behalf of rapists everywhere! Fun fact, when I used to get that drunk, I’d pass out. I didn’t molest sleeping people. I’ve been through years of therapy to come to terms with this, among other things. And I’m not going to let some ignorant internet idiot tear me down with their…

This is going to be a tough watch. I was raped when I was 20 at a college party. Drank too much, blacked out, went in and out of consciousness as a guy I didn’t know raped me. It’s been 13 years and I’ve only just recently been able to view it as rape. I laughed it off, ignored it, avoided it, blamed myself. It’s a…

I am sorry, that sucks.  

I did bunny CPR this week and was unsuccessful after rescuing 2 baby bunnies from our dogs. WTF mama bunny, pick another yard without 3 giant bird dogs and 2 feral cats. We also found a dead fish crow that flew into the barn and must have crashed into a wall. Probably foreboding bad news coming my way...

Aw, Plush. His coat is likely in poor condition because his mouth hurt, and he gave up grooming. I had one like that, and he never started grooming again even after his infected teeth were removed, so he was tatty for most of the rest of his life, until a younger cat took over his care (you don’t hear much about that,…

I’m finishing two months in rehab for cocaine come monday! My whole perspective has changed so much on substance abuse while I’ve been here and I’m fortunate that I ended up in a treatment centre that is very progressive. For me the whole 12 steps, or disease model was very difficult to use as a solid glue in putting…

This week has been a bit of a struggle to help my husband deal with his grief over losing his father to COVID a month ago. He’s been doing teletherapy every week but it doesn’t seem to help in a real way. We’re not going out and I really can’t do much to distract him because I’m still meant to be working full-time.

Thank you so much! Will check it out as I suspect many others here might ♡♡♡

I use an app developed by the Australian government department of veterans affairs. It’s a free app! PTSD Coach Australia. Very simple but I like it. Turns out breathing and visualisation helps me immensely. 

Or simply self-deluded. I do wish people would remember that they are not only responsible for their own health but that of others. One can be asymptomatic and transmit the disease. You could be responsible for another person’s death and never have a clue. I spoke with someone, close up, without a mask a few weeks…

Shelter Castravaganza!

Holy shit, I was JUST there last month. I did meet that dog, too!

Their wines are okay (I think they get pre-crushed grapes, and they definitely don’t have barrels at their tasting room), and there was definitely some secondary fermentation going on in their bottles (their wines had a slight effervescence to them).

But…

Speaking of authentic...

I’m so sorry. They just do not live long enough. This is the last thing we can do for them; a gentle, painless passing.

Well...ya know....a dishwasher is an awfully complex piece of equipment. All those buttons....and a door! I mean c’mon...a door for chrissakes! 

I’m gray but regularly comment here and check into Saturday night social when I can. We have made the difficult decision to euthanize our 13 year old dog. We have had her her entire life and she is the sweetest most loving and wonderful friend. Saying goodbye to her would be hard under any circumstances but given the…

I have two grown ass men living in my house (one of them disabled, but still he can load a dishwasher). Neither can accomplish anything other than leaving dirty dishes BESIDE the sink. In the spot which is DIRECTLY ABOVE the DISHWASHER.

Ugh, not only do I not want to do the sex, I don’t want to do anything else either. I’m sick of delivered food, I’m sick of cooking, and I’m sick of t.v. Right now I’m hungry and sitting on my couch staring blankly at the Tivo  welcome screen. My house smells like burned quinoa and I want a hug. Sorry for being a…
