Help with Life

Aww... Kitty!

...Anyway! What I'm suggesting you to do is leave the kitty to someone you can trust when going out. A friend, maybe?

About your mom, tell her that it's YOUR kitty, not hers. She shouldn't take other people's stuffs, which I bet is illegal. Besides, tell her that you can take care of the cat, to trust you.

About your brother, well just don't leave the kitty to him. One day, your brother might not want to give him/her back to you and may... well... cause some problems to the kitty. Let him pet the kitty once in a while so that your mom doesn't start saying stuffs like "You're selfish" "You don't want to share the kitty!" "You don't care about your brother. :\

 

Hmmm

My mom is like 'My house my rules' type of way >_<

she said i was gonna be a bad mother to it :/

I was joking around because i had a hand comb in my hand and the kitten was meowing and i threw the comb at the box to just joke around and my sister told my mom i was trying to hit the kitten with it :/
he was inside the box at the moment.

 

Cupcake, I hate to say this...but your mom is kind of right. The kitten should be staying more at home and needs your attention there so that it gets used to its territory and isn't afraid. Taking it around to other places is only going to make it afraid at this stage and also lost. As the cat grows, it also isn't going to take to going to other places with ease. Cats are not very portable and get intimidated easily to new places.

As for your brother, I'd kind of let your brother see the kitten but make sure he's being nice to it. If he's not, say when he's nice he can play with it but otherwise he cannot. Your mom may be going about things the wrong way, such as hiding the cat on you, but in the end I think she's trying to get you to see that taking it around and showing it off isn't very good for it and instead it needs a stable home and you there to watch over it as it grows.

 

uh i might need some help with guys. I have a problem with a "guy friend" who keeps calling me sweetie and a boy on the bus just told me he loves me but he doesnt even know me. this is trouble of current in my life..i told them i already had a boyfriend even though i dont cause im scared and im looking for true love blah blah and the perfect guy who just my luck might not even exist......OH PLEASE SAY IM NOT POSTING IN THE WRONG SECTION....

so, any advice?/the guy sits with me everyday and when he said that today im kinda scared for some reason.

 

Ohh, okay i get it why i can't take him anywhere..

and the thing is, our old cat, he ran away and we think he got in a fight and was killed because he came home with scabs and sores almost every weekend... Everytime my brother would get mad, he would hit the cat. I mean, he would be plain FINE and be as happy as ever, but if the cat didn't do what my brother wanted, he would hit the cat

My brother is 7 and he is old enough to understand not to hurt the cat. And I don't even want to chance it with my kitten. I don't let my brother near him at all. My mom might, but when i'm around, i don't want him in sight or anything...

 

I can understand that. I would let him around the kitten but only if someone is there with him but perhaps it should wait till the kitten is a bit older if he is particularly violent. Also, talk to your mom if he does hurt the cat because really he should be disciplined. Hurting an animal and getting no punishment can sometimes encourage kids to hurt people later on. Then, I bet she'd care more. He is seven and you are right. He's old enough to know better.

 

I can probably tell you, that he cries every day.. And no i'm not exaggerating. He actually does cry everyday, because he doesn't get his way.. He cried today, i remember yesterday he did, and i remember the day before. It's always something with him, and i actually blame the way he is raised is because he acts like this. He and my sister act the same, if they don't get something, they throw tantrums. Me, i just live with it...

My mom does discipline him, but he just throws tantrums and cries more, which makes him just scream and holler. I can already tell that he is going to have to go to therapy or take anger management lessons, if he can't control them...

 

Seems like she's not disciplining them enough but then again I'm not there to say so. She must get sick of him throwing tantrums and screaming. He can be stuck in his room like anyone else. At this point though if he's that bad and nothing works, maybe your mom really should get him to a counselor and find out what's going on. Something doesn't seem right if he's actually crying every day at seven years old and still throwing tantrums. You have a lot of patience and I feel for ya.

 

I have no patience whatsoever xD He's very violent when it comes to throwing tantrums. he'll slam doors, scream at my parents and do what he wants. My mom will tell him if he is gonna start crying, to go to his room and take a nap..
Usuaully, I'll scream at him from my room and tell him to grow up and to stop crying over stuff that's not killing him.

 

Jeez...I think he's a kid I'd opt for a good ol fashioned spanking and then some therapy. I wouldn't take that crap. Mind you, I don't recommend spankings often. It seems he's just doing it all for attention and to be as disruptive as possible.

 

well, to the girl with the boy problem:

some boys are just....well.....they like to play around like that , unless of course they might just want to make a move XDD, but try to pay it no mind , unless things get out of hand.....

 

Well Eternal Queen you have several options. One, you tell them to not bug you anymore. Two, you just get used to it and make either one of them as your BF. Three, you break their hearts and harsh enough to make them leave you alone. Frankly, I'd rather go with 2. But it's your call on this one.

 

Yeah, he just wails and stuff and he gets on my nerves >_<

 

I took an overdose of (8) iboprufens and I am scared to death at what will happen next. When I took the overdose, I was seriously depressed as I had found out my brother has cancer (that was about january).

I am scared that i'm going to die now, especially now I'm getting stomach pains every now and again. I was stupid to have taken the overdose, but is it too late for me to treat it?

I watched a tv programme the other day and it was dealing with the same issues, and unfortunately the girl died... I haven't talked about this before because I am disgraced by my choice... And people may not see it from my point of view, but when you know that someone you love dearly is going to die, for me I just felt that I let him down as the eldest sister.

I had always been the screw up anyway in the family throughout my life, but nothing I feel is as bad as what people like my brother are going through.

 

You took the overdose now or how long ago?

If it was just now or a few minutes ago, or anytime Today, I'd suggest you call 911 or the number on the ibuprofien for accidental ingestion and I'd call them and let them know

I don't care if your parents would get you in trouble, or any other family member, call them right now! Your life may be on the line

How many Mgs were they? 200? 300?

 

uh... it almost seems impossible for me to do this.
but i think that you are clearly right.
it is however hard for me to see her because of all the activities i deal with.
do you recommend poetry or music?

also as a thanks: i am sure you are cute as well as kind and sweet. i have seen a lot of people but none has ever helped me as much as you, and you don't even know me... thanks.

 

I took the overdose at Late January, but nothing bad has happened so far... Whats going to happen to me???

I'm just shaking at the fact that I might have left this too late.

I need to check the amount of mgs... I took about 8 pills, so it might be well over 200.

 

Here, I got this off a website... I hope this would answer in what are the consequences to such a serious mistake...


Consequences of Ibuprofen overdose: According to research institutes, Ibuprofen overdose damages your internal organs like liver. While in some cases it has been reported that it has result in a permanent liver damage, in other cases where the victim was taking the dose for a long and continued period it has resulted in organ failure one by one.

Some more side effects are unsteadiness, blurred vision, ringing in the ears, gastrointestinal, nausea plus vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, probable loss of blood in intestinal areas or stomach or both, headache, agitation, drowsiness, incoherence and confusion etc. Sometimes more serious symptoms are also noticed in some victims though very rare such as seizure, gastrointestinal bleeding, metabolic acidosis, respiratory depression, hyperkalaemia, tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, coma, hepatic dysfunction, renal failure, cyanosis, and cardiac arrest etc. Until and unless the victim is allergic to ibuprofen, there is a slim chance that the victim would die from Ibuprofen Overdose.

 

But, since you only took one OD and the effected organ was the liver (probably) the liver will re-generate and heal its self so you should be fine, and about you're brother having cancer, it may be painful to talk about but is it terminal? If it isn't there may still be hope, and, there is nothing that you can do to stop cancer from happening but if you catch it early enough then it can be cured.

 

I don't think an overdose in late January would have consequences now if you've never experienced any before this. Are you eating right? And getting enough sleep? You may need to get some carbs or protein in your system. If you have any vitamins I'd try that. Also, try drinking some milk and it may calm your stomach acids. If you feel really bad and shaky, I'd advice you to tell your parents because it could be something else and you may need to get some medication. It could be an intestinal infection or something. I've had to take 800 mgs of Ibuprofen before under doc's orders, 3 times a day and it wasn't an overdose. 8 pills probably is more than 200 I'd think unless it's just regular Ibuprofen.
