I recently got a little puppy and I lover her so much! I often am feeling "dog mom guilt" because she wants to play ALL. THE. TIME. and I just feel bad because I need to work and get things done around the house. I hate hearing her cry.
So cute! You definitely have to find other ways to amuse puppies. I suggest bullet sticks or Kongs with frozen yummy food in the middle of the Kong to start.
Omg 😻😻😻
She's adorable. Puppies have ridiculous amounts of energy, it'll happen whether you are giving them attention or not. The more you give her attention and give into the crying, the more likely they'll form separation anxiety. It's an education 😂 but completely envious of you!
@Wolfram So much energy….she wakes up and just sprints around the house in circles barking at the air 😅
@Tswiftsparkles Zoomies 😂😂
SHES SOOO CUTEEE😍😍😍😍😭😭😭
I agree with Wolfram . And just to add pets will normally make the adjustments whether you are with them or not and keep themselves entertained. Try to have favorite toys available especially when you are busy .
I get it. It's hard looking into the cutest face ever and feeling so guilty! Sending you and your pup love from me and my cat. 💕
I can't tell if this is OCD to be honest, but with how much I'm focusing on it, it has to be some form or another. My mom and I have never had the best relationship. Ever since I was 6 years old, my OCD has always made me feel like I need to confess my own guilts to her. Our relationship has gotten infinitely better ever since I started therapy a few years ago. Her and I have been able to talk about a lot of things in the past and she's apologized for a lot of things. Recently I've been remembering more real events that make me want to cry. I don't want to keep bringing up things to her that she's done wrong. Especially this current memory, as it was years ago and I know she didn't mean any ill-intent. I don't want to hurt her by bringing this up, because I don't want her to think I'm blaming her or make her feel like a bad mom. I can't tell if this is something I need to talk about with her to get closure, or if this is my OCD disguising itself so I can "confess" to get relief. I'm so tired, I can't stop thinking about it. I'm not even sure if I'm remembering things right anymore. Sorry if this isn't OCD or I sound crazy.
Does anyone know how to deal with guilt for something you did as a kid that you feel is disgusting and worry that it could have hurt someone you loved.
I’m just here to vent a little and hopefully I can get some advice… My brother recently out his dog up for adoption that has been in the family for 6 years. I’m a wreck and I can’t stop picturing him in a shelter all alone, I feel heartbroken and im going down there first thing in the morning and gonna adopt him myself. I’m praying I can get to him but I’m also terrified of taking care of another living thing. I’m damn near 30 and I feel worried that I can’t give him everything he deserves because I’m an anxious wreck all the time but I also know that no one can love him as much as me. How do I get over this awful feeling of worry and anxiety running through my body? Leave him in the shelter is not a choice , I’d feel guilty for the rest of my life and I love him too damn much. Am I crazy or do others feel this way about having this much responsibility over anther living thing :/
