When is it time to put my dog to sleep?
I ask because, well, my Beagle, Jasper, is 15 years old, and currently he has no use of his back legs, I don't know if they hurt or what, but he can't use them, today he started refusing to eat, and wouldn't drink much water, I had to force him to take his arthritis medication. He has been like this before, when winter came last year, but that only lasted about three days, and it wasn't this bad, I've been having to take special care for him for almost two weeks now, and he has given up, if he falls over, he doesn't even try to get back up, he will just lay there and sigh deeply and stare at me. It's heartbreaking, I raised him from a puppy, he has always been my buddy, he helped me through the hardest times of my life, and I know that it's my responsibility do what's best for him, and I'm pretty sure it's time to put him to sleep, even if a vet could help him get better, I can't afford it. I guess I'm just asking for your guy's opinion on this, because I don't know what to do.
7 AnswersDogs4 years agoDo you believe that all people are born inherently good?
I ask, because being hugely interested in psychology, this is a question that I see flung around quite frequently when talking about the human mind and Morales, and I want to know what you guys think.
11 AnswersPsychology4 years agoFor the first time, I don't want to help my friend.?
This is kind of heartbreaking and frustrating for me, and my generosity and big heart are really the only things I like about myself, I've always been the friend that cares and is so willing to help, I'm basically a therapist to all my friends, and it makes me feel good to know I'm helping people, but recently a somewhat close friend of mine tried to commit suicide, and I was so willing to be there and help, but with everything going on in my life on top of him attempting suicide, the eagerness to be there for him has for the most part went away, like I almost don't want to be there for him, and I'm not sure why. Im posting this because I'm very confused about these emotions, and its really bothering me, so any ideas or anything is appreciated
3 AnswersFriends4 years agoMy friend attempted suicide?
I can't believe it, one of my closest friends tried to kill themselves, and I feel so at fault. While I was ignoring everybody while grieving the anniversary of my cousins death my good friend sent me multiple messages asking to talk, saying he needed to talk to someone, but I just ignored him, being the friend that everybody talks to when they need help, I simply have to be alone while dealing with things, so I ignore Everyone for a couple days to get through ****. But yesterday, on the anniversary my cousin died, my friend tried to kill himself, and I can't help but think that if I was there, if I hadn't ignored him, he wouldn't have tried to OD on prescribed medication. I talked to him for the first time afterwards a few minutes ago, but I'm out of town so it was just a phone call, but he sounded so emotionless and dead, and it's all my fault. How do I move on from this? Because I am so devastated right now. And I'm sorry for the long repeating paragraph, I just really need help right now
3 AnswersFriends4 years agoI think me and my best friend are growing apart.?
Corey and me have been really good friends for about 5 years, but I don't know what has been happening over the last couple of months. We used to talk all the time, and just be ourselves, but now it seems we get more and more angry and irritable towards each other each time we talk. Nearly every conversation we have ends with one of us getting mad and leaving the chat, or one of us always has an excuse as to why we can't come over. I don't know, I can just feel us growing apart, it feels terrible. I have always been a clingy person, maybe it's me. I have been through more and more **** over the years I knew Corey, he has always been there for me to support me, and I did the same for him, and recently, he hasn't been there for me. My dad and stepmom divorced late last year, and my mom and step dad are getting a divorce soon, I have been so depressed lately, and nobody is there for me. I don't know what to do. Maybe Corey is just tired of all the **** that comes along with being close to me. I'm sorry for the long post, I just don't know who to talk to.
2 AnswersFriends5 years agoI'm 17, and am going to my local career center for Industrial Electrical Engineering.?
I will be in IEE for my junior and senior years of highschool,(which starts August 19th) but I am so afraid that I will fail. I get sick to my stomach just thinking about it all, I'm like considering dropping out and doing homeschooling. I have such an opportuntty to do something I love and have a passion for, but I almost don't want to because I am afraid I just can't do it. I even have the chance for some really good Scholarships at OSU, where I could fulfill my dream of Aerospace Engineering, but I'm so afraid I could fail and be rejected. I'm sorry for ranting on, but I don't feel comfortable with talking to anybody I know with this.
1 AnswerEngineering5 years agois there any way I ( a sophomore in highschool ) could find a way to raise 3,000 dollars rather quickly?
I ask because I have been nominated to go to the NYLF: (National Youth and Leadership Forum) Engineering And Technology Program. the deadline for the $500.00 up front payment($3,000 total by April) is the 18th of this month. we were able to pay for it, but my mother had to get a CAT Scan and has been going to the Chiropractor for Pulling out her back, which the Insurance was supposed to cover but they made us pay for it. so now my parents are almost $1,500 in debt. she hasn t told me she cant pay for it yet, but its pretty obvious. sorry for the long Question, I just really, REALLY want to go to this program because it is right in the field i want to eventually get a job in and am super stressed about the whole situation.
2 AnswersOther - Education5 years agoCan I have my step-fathers dog taken into care by an animal control agency?
Hunter; our Yellow Lab, has been locked in a pen outside for the last few months with nothing but a Travel Cage for shelter. I try to pay attention to him to cheer him up but I get in trouble for it. He is watered like once a day and is only fed once too. I live in ohio and the weather is getting really chilly and I am scared for him. I don't care if I get in trouble by my parents, as long as Hunter is in better care I will be happy
4 AnswersDogs6 years agoI had a dream about the end of the world?
It started out a peaceful day out, Sunny, Warm, then the good feeling was over. All of a sudden it was dark outside, and I was in a vehicle with some family on the highway, and something big happened in the city and EVERYBODY including us were speeding out of the city. This part was kind of blurry, but I remember looking at my phone (tried to call my father, but had no service), then I look out the window and a semi behind us collided with a car and rolled over, leading to many more collisions, I remember the news station on the radio blaring really loudly and then it just cut out. I remember being really scared, and I truly Knew the world was ending. Then I just woke up very scared and sweating, to a foggy morning and a text saying I was on a 2 hour delay for school. So, what does this mean? I don't usually have traumatic dreams like this one.
6 AnswersDream Interpretation6 years agoIs this normal?
I don't really know how to explain this, but I will try. So basically I will have this like really short panic attack randomly and will jump, my heart starts racing and I get really scared, sometimes I will like imagine some quick short scary scene like being hit by a train or something. I don't intentionally do this, sometimes I will even sometimes hear a sound accompanying the little vision thing. This will usually happen when I am trying to go to sleep, but sometimes it will happen while doing something in the day. This really scares me because I just started driving and don't wanna have this happen while driving my car. So is this maybe some sort of "condition" or just stress or what? Sorry if this is sorta confusing.
2 AnswersMental Health6 years agoIs it wrong to have a few friends much younger than me?
I ask because I am 16 and I am friends with a 9 year old and his 13 year old brother. They are like my family cuz my mom used to do daycare and they were 2 of the daycare kids. You wouldn't understand unless you were in my position, I helped raise those boys since before they were a year old for about 10 years. And being an only child, they were like brothers to me. So is this weird at all?
3 AnswersFriends6 years agoEver since the upgrade to windows 10, my desktop wont connect to my homes WiFi. My desktop is a Lenovo Erazer X315, and it has A/C WiFi?
I don't really know what the problem is other than my PC isnt picking up my WiFi routers signal. All of my other devices such as my phone, laptop, and ps4 connect with no issues. I already reset the router multiple times, and I only started having issues with it since the Windows 10 upgrade. Any advice or known rides?
2 AnswersComputer Networking6 years agoI picked up my laptop and turned it sideways to see an optical illusion and it really started into the boot menu?
All I did was pick it up, turn it sideways, I heard it snap and then it restarted into the boot menu. So I powered it down and power it back on and it s now scanning and repairing drive. I am posting this on my phone because this just happened, I m afraid I broke my laptop. Any advice? Or any ideas of what happened? I am freaking out.
1 AnswerLaptops & Notebooks6 years agoIs it normal to cry as a 15 year old guy?
All my life I have been a very emotional kid. I feel like my emotional control has gone down the drain. I have dealt with some pretty emotional situations; for example, over half of my family has either died or left in the past 5 years. I thought I had become pretty good with my emotions in till less than an hour ago. My dad came to get me for the weekend(parents are divorced) and my parents started this huge argument which they involved me in, not 5 minutes into it is swear they had said every known cussword, and I just broke down. I started balling my eyes out because I felt the argument was my fault. Is stuff like this normal? Any advice?
3 AnswersAdolescent6 years agoHow do i tell my dad i dont want to go see Jurassic World with him?
My dad has been planning to take me to Jurassic World for some time now (parents are divorced)but, I really want to see it with my mom because she loves the Jurassic park/world movies, and also because my dad ALWAYS takes me to new movies even when my mom wants to take me instead. My parents get very jealous over each other about me, and both of my parents are kind of emotionally unstable recently..... So how can I explain to my dad that I don't want to see the movie with him because I want to see it with my mom instead? Sorry for the huge question, but I really don't want to upset either of my parents even further.
3 AnswersFamily6 years agoam i possibly busexual?
For the past few years I have been very unsure of my sexuality, but I want to know what you guys think.
So for starters I am a 15 yo guy in high school, and for a while now I have had theese dreams of having sex with another guy, no guy in particular... But it's weird. On the other hand, I really like a handful of girls at school and have wanted to be in a relationship with them but I am scared they will reject me. (like everybody else in my school.) on top of being unsure and emotional about my sexuality , I am made fun of ALOT at school being called gay and ****** and everything else. But the problem is, is that I am almost afraid of being gay... Most of the "openly gay" kids in my school are picked on even worse that me, and my life is miserable enough as it is. But with all of the dreams and fantasies I have had I am starting to believe I am gay and I am very uncomfortable with the subject. I have also seriously thought about having children as an adult. Sorry for the long question... But any ideas?? I am very unsure of this all.
