My first cat, who was absolutely my soul cat, was named Galoshes. I don't think it's super weird but everyone was always like "What?? your cats name is Galoshes??".
She partially financially supports me. I'm trying to figure out how to get out of this, but any job I can get makes my schizophrenia worse. So I'm kinda fucked.

right but many of the Heterometrus species are commonly called "Asian Forest Scorpions", it doesn't always refer exclusively to H. spinifer. this is one of the times where common names aren't the most accurate or helpful
I’m currently unmedicated because I can’t sleep for the life of me on meds. I definitely wouldn’t recommend it, though. I feel like I’m back where I was before starting them.
ive never been on meds 🙃 i really want to but they can cause seizures and i have a seizure disorder Nd even w my antiseizure meds i still get them sometimes. my neuro and psych agree that i just need to tough it out because i already have some permanent damage from entering status epilepticus
thanks for answering! im thinking about grabbing it as it'll be my first bones ever (i live in a big city) but if i dont keep it i'll bury it. it was just the skull, the body was nowhere to be seen and unfortunately the street i live on is home to someone who kills cats and leaves them on the street. one was shot, still in the position they enter when theyre scared. even found a puppy with its head nearly decapitated :( no one ive called seems to care
when i was 16 i was in a horrible manic episode, i was dating this girl on and off at the time and i broke up with her because i liked someone else, this someone else fed into my delusions and told me i was a god and i believed her so it made my delusions even worse and i was convinced i could see signs in music, videos, movies, books, etc.
nqa, i dont want to encourage you to disturb her but can you safely lift the cork bark off of her and take a picture from above? and could you take a picture of your enclosure? is she still moving?
She is, she actually just got up and walked around the tank after I posted this. (I’m not kidding, I got up and walked to the kitchen and when I came back she was taking a short constitutional.)
nqa, okay im glad shes up. considering you just did a substrate change im sure she's just a little stressed out. she'll probably feel better in a few days
my first tarantula was a pinktoe and he was great, super calm, but if he got spooked he would run or jump. they get spooked easily. i really recommend getting a curly hair. i have two ones a juvenile and the other is a bit bigger and both are extremely handleable.
umm?? i dont think thats normal
wake up and break up
nqa, what are the dimensions of the tank? do you know when the last time she molted is? and is it possible its a mature male?
i hate going outside cause i feel like everyone is looking at me cause they can tell i have schizophrenia or at least that something is wrong w me
Yes. Obviously. You have to ignore all context to think otherwise.
i have schizophrenia and autism ive never molested a child.
Do you think you are the president and have worms coming out of your dick?
ive thought i was a literal god before.
i literally only trust my girlfriend to take care of me adequately when i have a seizure. no one cared about other people anymore.

im sorry youre being downvoted dude. no one will ever understand what its like being stuck with schizophrenia until theyre stuck with it.
Thanks fir the info..I will. I also drink an unhealthy amount of coffee. I’m hoping that it’s that.
cut back dude, it'll be the best decision ever. after my dad cut back on coffee he got much healthier
Question : where have you been getting your feeders?
i get them from a local pet shop in my city that sells exotic pets

thank you so much, thank you for taking the time to reply i'll try to get discord and join the server.
It is not an Heterometrus spinifer, but an H. silenus
thank you
right but many of the Heterometrus species are commonly called "Asian Forest Scorpions", it doesn't always refer exclusively to H. spinifer. this is one of the times where common names aren't the most accurate or helpful
okay fair
thank u so much!! she doesn’t rly sit in the sun she was brown when i got her :) lovely names!! i love indigo for her
she definitely has black fur and not brown. lighting may make it look brown but she has black fur, its not brown.
did you reported it to the police?
unfortunately no because i was scared but i do have messages with her where she admits what she did
do it now.
it has been nearly 5 years since it happened, the police arent going to help me

Kitty cat, poor baby. If you don’t wish to keep them as part of a collection I hope you’ll give them the loving burial they deserve ❤️

Definitely looks to be a kitty
thanks!
Worst bout ever?
when i was 16 i was in a horrible manic episode, i was dating this girl on and off at the time and i broke up with her because i liked someone else, this someone else fed into my delusions and told me i was a god and i believed her so it made my delusions even worse and i was convinced i could see signs in music, videos, movies, books, etc.
What were your earliest symptoms? And did you start to think you might be undiagnosed or did it take another person to point it out?
my earliest symptom was voices in my head.
Additional note: I also saw her preening and scratching her butt after the second substrate change, if that gives any further context.
nqa, i dont want to encourage you to disturb her but can you safely lift the cork bark off of her and take a picture from above? and could you take a picture of your enclosure? is she still moving?

does the way other people talk about polyamory bother you? was it hard finding a partner who was also polyamorous?
Do you think this is real?
it really seems like that person is being sarcastic
i have a few questions…
this persons a troll. they made a post saying they were engaged to their mother too
that looks like a short haired version of the kitten me and my gf just got. we named him hotaru! (it means bug)
my first tarantula was a pinktoe and he was great, super calm, but if he got spooked he would run or jump. they get spooked easily. i really recommend getting a curly hair. i have two ones a juvenile and the other is a bit bigger and both are extremely handleable.
not to be that person but youre asking for the sex not gender
im unmedicated because i have a seizure/neuro disorder and antipsychotics increase the risk of seizures
