POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

I've had depression and anxiety for so long at this point I know my triggers and I know when I need help. At the end of May I decided to start back on medication knowing the road ahead would be rough. Fast forward to today I've now seen 3 different doctors and been on now 7 different "cocktails". The first two sat behind a computer, when I would try to explain how I feel they would just say "it says to up it", or "or it says to add this". For months I've been back and forth to them telling them I'm not sleeping, having panic attacks, and feeling a mess. Yesterday I called and asked for a different doctor and today I feel HEARD! Not only did she sit beside me and talk, she asked me what's been happening, reassured me I was heard, and told me how proud of me she was. "You've lost so much and have had no relief, give yourself grace, you are doing so well" Sounds silly but it's words I needed to hear. She then changed my medicine saying if we keep going down the list it could be months till I find relief, so instead she used her experience and knew what to prescribe. She also set me up with a therapist who specializes in grief AND gave me resources to groups that's meet twice a month for hospice grief. (I had no idea that is a different kind).

This morning when I got home a weight felt like it was lifted off my shoulder for the first time in months. Not sure if its the allergy issue or if my mind finally relaxed but I actually slept for a few hours straight. It was wonderful!

So this is your reminder advocate for yourself and if you don't feel the doctor is right, go see another one and another one until you feel heard! You deserve the help. by @krissc7

The hardest part of all of this is going back into a home that's waiting for someone to return. Finding the candy on the TV stand and slippers by the door like he will be here later. Instead it's me, feeling like I'm invading my dad's privacy going through things I shouldn't. Packing clothes in to trash bags, dishes into boxes, and going through 40+ years of life. It's finding my mom's things and reliving pain from her passing. It's trying to figure out, what can I donate and where, feeling guilty knowing so much will be thrown away, and trying to figure out what can I keep for me. This is a pain I wouldn't wish on anyone.

I miss my mom and dad. by @krissc7

Dearest Katia, There will never be another person like you, and the world seems darker without you in it. You touched sooo many lives, and no one who spent even a minute with you will ever forget the caring, one-of-a-kind personality you had. I hope you find peace in the light and feel no pain now. Thank you for being my first mentor. So much of the BCBA I am today was because of the selfless, kind, and patient BCBA you were to me. by @krissc7

Some may call her the "replacement dog"
The dog you get after your soul dog passed away. The one who has unrealistic expectations brought on them before they even enter the home. The one who is compared to the other dog constantly. The "well my puppy didn't do that why is she". The one when you look at them they almost seem like a foster, not truly yours. The one you feel guilty about doing things you never could with your soul pup. It's unfair!

Lately I realized that's how I was treating her for awhile. Yes I still loved her, but so many times I compared her to Dolly or jacks. So many times I'd get mad at her for being her. I'd think why is she doing this, or why doesn't she do this. I realized how unfair it is to her.

This is Daisey. She will always be daisey. Needs chew bows to keep her occupied, doesn't really play with stuffies just destroys them, and more energy then any other dog I've ever seen. She had more trauma then I care to admit before we got her and has struggled. But we've only had her 4 months and she's potty trained, we can leave her roam the house while we are home (with doors closed), she's so smart and learns commands quickly, she LOVES TO LOVE. I am positive she doesn't know how much she's grown because she can not fit in my lap but tries! She's sleeping through the night in her kennel and doesn't wake us up at the crack or dawn anymore. She's vocal, loves to wrestle and loves to watch TV (especially wrestling). She also can jump any fence if there's a squirrel taunting her. She's OUR puppy. It's so difficult at times but I am learning to treat her like Daisey. My heart will always ache for my soul dogs but this one is pretty special and we love her in different ways. . . . and that's ok! by @krissc7
