Just accidentally swallowed a pea whole and saw my life flash before my eyes.
Just almost ran into a person coming out of the bathroom and we both said "sorry" at the same time and moved out of the way for each other and then ended up both going through the door at the same time all while avoiding eye contact.
I think that just about sums up how meeting another socially awkward person goes.
My dream aesthetic is a mix of slutty vampire and cottage core pirates.
This is aimed more towards the Service Dog community...
Okay, so I have had multiple diagnosis over the past few years. My lovely list includes POTS, hEDS, essential tremors, ect. I am a Junior in HS and I am wanting to owner-train a service dog. My mom thinks that exercise and medication will make me better. The meds that doctors have previously given me haven't worked and I just got an exercise program that is specific to my conditions about a five months ago, and have seen little improvement. I rely a lot on my mom to help me do things and when I get to college, she won't be there to help me anymore. I want to become more independent and really struggle to do so now.
We don't have the money to get a dog professionally trained and I have made it clear that I would be willing to put in all the work. My mom has said on multiple occasions that when our *pet* dog dies, that she doesn't want any more (not because she hates animals, but because she loves to travel) I have explained that a service dog is not considered a pet and that it is a piece of medical equipment. She also says that I can just use our arthritic 8yo dog instead of getting an actual sd because I will get better and won't need one later on. I have done extensive research on what breeds that would best fit my needs, what tasks it would need to learn, and how to train them. I have also spent hours upon hours reading our local and state laws as well as the ADA's.
So...I guess my question is, when did you know that you needed a service dog? And how can I convince my mother?
Edit: She is now saying that if I get a Service dog, our pet has to go live somewhere else.
The Airbnb that the EPIC cast stayed at in Ithaca will be a historical site among fans and I love that.
To the guy who approached my dog and I at night and asked to pet her and then understood that her running away with a toy in her mouth did not mean that she wanted to play with you, Thank you.
The worst thing about school is it makes me feel like my health problems need to come second. Even with a 504 plan, I still end up falling behind and have to force myself to suffer to get things done.
I wish I could miss school because of that...
I wouldn't be there the entire year
I am not going to school today because I have “dislocated my entire skeleton” in my sleep.
I need a website that can find an existing sewing pattern for a cosplay. I want to take a picture of what I want and I want to see a matching pattern.
Mom: She is nearsighted and has a stigmatism.
Me *finger guns*: Yeah I do!
Mom *disappointed look*
