Emergency Cuddle Therapist, cool acronym. Talk therapy and pet therapy have both been helpful for me.
Yes I do like actual therapy yet kind of fear it...and I love how you see it as a family member it's like adopting a child...
Actual therapy can be hard to get used to. I'm very into animal rights, I consider animals family because I love them and I believe they are smarter than most people give them credit for.
I used to be vegan but I had trouble getting enough protein. I had so little protein at one point my knees began to give out. Now I eat humanely raised meat and eggs. I believe if we are going to kill an animal at least we shouldn't be mean to them. I wish I could go vegan again but I don't want to have health issues. A lot of vegans eat concentrated gluten for protein but I'm gluten intolerant.
Oh okay cool yes it's very tricky to get all the nourishment you need when vegan/ vegetarian like supplementing with vitamin b12 is a must I hear..I've probably tried every way of eating known to man unfortunately my family wouldn't be willing to buy special kinds of meats. Even though I would never be a vegan/ vegetarian because I looooove meat maybe a lil too much my mom finds it sooo weird that I literally can't kill anything like insects/pests myself. I'm actually embarrassed to say this but if like there are maybe ants by the basin and I don't see them then they end up in a puddle I try and save them gosh I'm weird:/...
Special meats can be expensive unfortunately so that is probably their reason. That's not weird, that's actually really nice.
Yes and set in their ways they defenently don't care about animal rights and stuff... thanks for making me feel less weird I guess it's just I can't imagine taking a life myself...I even believe plants are alive my mom doesn't well they grow, feed, reproduce don't they?...
We have 4 pets. Two dogs (Boerboel (Mastiff-type South African breed) and a miniature dachshund) and two African Grey parrots. We had a cat too, but she had to be euthanized two years ago due to kidney failure ETA: Almost forgot about my niece's fish tank. Not sure how many fish are in there at the moment. Let's say about 10?
