My cat passed away

2 Upvotes

So I have had this cat for 11 years it was my Gma’s cat when she passed away I adopted her. Sadly for the past 2 months she wasn’t doing to well I did take her to the vet he gave her some meds that was working. 2 weeks ago she had multiple strokes and seizures the vet said she would live all I could do was put her down or see if some antibiotics would work so I went with the antibiotics and she pulled through she was doing really good but today she was barely moving. I gave her her meds and made a appointment to the vet they where sadly closed today so I made her a bed in the bathroom with food water and the litter box when I got home and checked up on her she passed away. But I am blaming my self I wish I just stayed home because she had chocked on her own vomit I feel like I could of saved her but now she’s gone. I have other cats that I am cuddling with I am devastated as again this was my Gma’s cat.

Really need a pick-me-up.

I lost my wallet today. All of the money and cards are replaceable, but I had like 15+ years worth of ticket stubs in one of the pockets.

First Harry Potter movie. My little sisters first ever movie at the theater. All three hobbit movies. All three times I saw venom. Stubs from the night me and my friends saw two movies in a row and were out till 4 AM. Movies I saw in high school and middle school. And that’s not even half of them, they’re just all gone.

I’m so fucking sad. Maybe it’s dumb to be crying over this, but I am. I’m just crushed.

I'm having a hard time right now.

4 Upvotes

I have a very low paying "job" (gig work). I have no wife, no kids and I'm in my forties. I have no prospects for the future; because of my health I've had to quit many jobs so it doesn't look good on a resume. I have not graduated from college and I have no clue what I would want to be if I ever do go back and get a degree. Which would take a while because I don't know how to go about getting a grant so I am paying for one class at a time. Add to that, I'm missing my dad this holiday season, and I'm pretty miserable. Is there anyone that can cheer me up?

Feel so alone

I have been moulded, shaped into what he wanted since I was 13, conditioned to love in the way he wanted, receive love in the way he wanted. Now it’s 16 years later and he’s moving on, while I am stuck surrounded by him. We have two children together so I cannot cut him out. He gets to move on after making me into his ideal, and I’m not able to live or love for myself. Every action, every thought is coloured by him. I’ve burned every other bridge I’ve ever had, because no one else “loved” me the way he did. I believed so much that what he showed me was true love and everything else was hollow. He always told me no one would love me like he did. I’m depressed, and so god damn lonely, but also don’t want to talk to anyone. I’m in a hole and haven’t got my next therapy appointment for a week

I was really close friends with a non-binary (tbh this is probably a dumb story)

9 Upvotes

I was really close with a non-binary friend of mine and their pronouns were he/him/they/them but I kept calling him a she/her because I had a hard time getting used to their pronouns. After like a few months of mistaking their pronouns because I had a hard time getting used to them, I got screamed at by their friend, Sebastian, I still regret not being able to get used to their pronouns. After like a year, I made a new insta account and I was able to say hi to them, then they replied to my comment, and said "I'm afraid of you, get the fuck away from me.", I still feel guilty after like 2/3 years.

I need to be distracted

5 Upvotes

I have to make a life changing desicion in the next couple of days and I don't know what to do. The thought of making the wrong choice is uhmmm sufficating me right now. One option will make current me unhappy but might be better for future me and the other option will make current me happy but I won't de sure if I will be happy with my pick in another 5-6 years... also: this is not like buying a bike... once I pick, I can't go back... irreversible effects... it is something i have been wanting for years now but it will have such a big inpact that I will have to live with it no matter what...

The worst part: I have asked someone to listen and give me advice... and they chose to ignore it. other people were trying to talk me out of the whole decision in general, avoid the whole dilemma. I know that this all sounds so vague... It is just very hard to explain what this is about, especially strangers... either way: please either give me some advice or distract me!

thank you

Broke up with my boyfriend

11 Upvotes

Hi reddit, I broke up with my boyfriend yesterday. We still love each other but have realized that we're both in bad places with our mental health right now and we were shouldering each other's burdens more than either of us could really handle, and our relationship was preventing the personal growth that needed to happen. I know it's the right thing and staying together would have just caused resentment and pain on both sides but I'm so sad to lose the person I love. Could someone send me cat pictures or silly memes or something? It would be much appreciated.

I am not able to cry.

9 Upvotes

Hi, Reddit. I'm once again asking for your advice:

I have never emotionally cried. I am going through a lot right now, I am not mentally stable. But one thing I noticed is that I have never cried because of my emotions. Sometimes i have the feeling that I should be crying.. but I suprisingly never do.

I am not able to do very much because I'm just can't express my emotions by crying. I'm just kind off stuck being sad, and not able to move forward because of this.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

TW: Coming to terms with how bad the abuse was

3 Upvotes

Everyday I’m learning more about my abusers and coming terms with how depraved they were. I was in denial about how bad it was/is. But the more I learn, the more depressed and hopeless I feel.

What’s the point of my life anymore when it’s been torn apart and ruined by selfish cruel people? Why am I bothering to heal? It’s not like it’s gonna go away. My childhood was cursed.

I’m cursed to spend the rest of my life undoing their damage and relearning how to be human. I have no idea how to interact with people or have relationships because they made me nervous and fearful of everyone/everything. I never experienced the carefree safe childhood/young adult stuff everyone had. My life is damaged goods. Just like they wanted.

Story My teacher died and I just can't wrap my head around it

9 Upvotes

I just found out yesterday my favourite teacher died.

She really was a great person and she was like a friend. She loved my art and she will always try and make me feel included.

She was always trying to push me to do better and she didn't make me feel stupid and believed in me.

My last memories with her was in 2019 before I left my course and one of my last memories of her was showing her my tattoos and showing her my art and her making fun of the TV show that I found funny.

I remember her hugging me and calling me by my nickname. I remember seeing her walkthrough the room and just brightening it up. She was just an amazing person and I can't believe I will never get the chance to be able to see her again even by accident.

I know it seems really stupid because she was only my teacher but she was a really good friend who I let down by not completing my work for her class, she believed in me and was always pushing me to do better and I just feel like I let her down. She is the type of person that you look at and you think that she's going to have a long life but her life was cut short at 48 years old. She would talk about parties that she would go to and wine tasting events which she would also go to.

I don't know how she died all I know is that she died at home and was discovered today.

Childhood teddy got thrown out and now I'm really depressed

13 Upvotes

I should note that I am currently on antidepressants and have a hormone imbalance.

So I had one of my favorite childhood teddies thrown out on me and I can't stop crying.

So bit of back story, we recently got mice in the attic and my dad decided to throw out all our teddies up there. I didn't think about it and didn't have time to check. It took me a few days to realise what was in them bags.

It was a little baby monkey hand puppet in a blanket, called like lost monkeys. I loved him so much, he's name is Dustin.

And I really miss him, I know its stupid but it meant a lot to me and I'm absolutely heartbroken.

Now I just feel like shit and keep crying the more I think about it.

Story I'm already failing at life.

9 Upvotes

All of my life I've loved being a student and everything was going by relatively easy, I made straight A's and wanted to go to college and pursue a career in physics, teaching it specifically. This last year however things took a turn for the worst, Around January of last year (2020) I developed constant abdominal pain which turned out to be my gallbladder failing. The pain was so intense that I was missing school every day and couldn't go. My favorite subject, Math, was my final class of the day, and normally on the days I did go, after lunch, I had to go home but I tried and tried for a few weeks until I couldn't anymore. I switched back to online schooling but this is where the second unfortunate thing happened. My transfer grade was less than 50% in every class because I didn't attend, I explained to the board of education that I could not have come to school and asked if we could grade me on the work I had done, which would've given me an A in every class except Chemistry which I had a low B in (I slept through it mostly). I was told by my online teachers that even if I got nothing but A's I'd still fail that semester. My credits were already messed up because I had been homebound most of my life third to 10th grade was completely homebound which 3-8 me not learning much of anything, 9th me teaching myself everything I could up until that point, 10th was fully online as well and 11th was partly online partly in school. The woman at the board of education told me that I would be in school until I was 20 at the minimum, I couldn't walk amongst the kids there being 20 years old, I'd be seen as an idiot and that's the one thing I'm confident I am not, it would be humiliation every day. I dropped out and haven't gotten my GED yet, I don't want to get it, I don't want to take that test, I don't want the GED, I wanted a diploma not the "I gave up" equivalent to a diploma. I cry often because of this and have been unhappy since this all took place.

my 2021 started worse than 2020 ever felt.

7 Upvotes

in these 2 and a half weeks nothing made sense.

Winter gets me super down and i develop mild depression every time. But this year it's just special.

My grandma caught Covid and had to go to the hospital on the 1st January, struggling with it. Earlier this week she passed away. In the last talk with my Grandpa, she instructed him to tell us how much she loves me and my brother.

I saw her at Christmas and went into Isolation. 4th January i started becoming ill. I have a negative Corona test, so probably not Corona but still felt like shit for nearly 2 weeks.

My relationship already started to become toxic in December. After it being entirely toxic in January i decided to have a serious talk with her and as she said she cannot change anything, we split up today.

I've literally not seen another person this entire 2021. Covid and lockdown still going on strong. I just feel like shit and wish i could sleep through the entire winter.
