I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.
Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.
I have to miss uni for my comm MH appointment I got in very quick. Then I see my GP and also I have an appointment for the clinical trial to increase the medication and I’ll have a chat with my regular at KHL. Very appointment heavy.

@Jynx, cats count as babies at the end of the day. I was reading they even have similar attachment styles as infants do with their parents. They probably look at you as a parent
I read somewhere recently that as cats evolved alongside humans, they learned to mimic the sound of a crying baby in order to get our attention. So cool!

Re: Tw Not Coping
@Birdofparadise8, I hope the appointments are productive. I’ll continue with uni stuff, gotta get assignment out of the way.
@Jynx, that sounds about right. Cats are pretty intelligent animals. Cats do strange things to get our attention, the neighbours cat was meowing and rolling around on the road, and even jumped onto a tree lol. The mischievous cat knew she was getting a lot of attention for her naughty behaviour. Once, we found her on the roof, meowing after we came home. She’s not even ours but thinks she owns us 😆

Re: Tw Not Coping
They really are @creative_writer!! So mischievous. Trixie my older cat will sometimes sit in my bathroom sink and meow when she wants attention - I think because it gets more resonance and echoes a bit, really giving it some oomph! Ahh I just love cats soooo much! Do you have any kitties?

Re: Tw Not Coping
All the best @Birdofparadise8
@Jynx, cats are adorable and funny. We have been thinking about it for a long time, just need to sort out living arrangements, particularly since kittens can be very naughty. You could probably argue the neighbour’s cat is half ours now, she just casually loafs in our backyard. She thinks she owns our house too and once had to be pushed out because she managed to get into our home, lol. She gets territorial if another cat comes. Her house is just next door so she comes and goes throughout the day
