I was not openly mocking you if that was not clear. I realize that it may not have been.

take that cat to a vet at once.


A cat is always perfectly fine and in control of its environment, no matter what state its body is in.
my puss had a nasty ear infection when she was 2 months old, that and the aggressive antibiotics she took messed up her balance. she's the clumsiest cat you'll ever see, can't even climb a chair without falling with her back on the floor half of the times. So cute, yet so sad :( i'm always fearful of what else might be messed up in that little fuzzy head of hers and may come back to haunt us later

My friend had a cat who always clawed the the front of their TV speaker until one day she pulled it down on herself.  She had mild brain damage and would stumble around with her tongue hanging out, and started having seizures so they had her put to sleep.

Guys, you're making me worry about me dad's cat.

I swear, if she ever gets eaten by those foxes I'm gonna blame MoM for it. All three of her.

We had a cat once, for a few days. Our dog, which up till then had got along fine with the cats in the neighbourhood, became extremely jealous and eventually gave the kitten a bit of a chewing out. Literally.

The dog also hated all cats after that.

We have at least one in the direct area here as well, I saw him this winter when he was stealing birdfood from the feeders, and he chased another wittle kitteh at one time. So far my cat has outcunning'd him, though. Thankfully.

Well, there we have it.  I've been depressed and almost completely without motivation for two weeks.  Even tried the "do something you're looking forward to, build up expectation, yadda yadda" thing.  Didn't work... it's just been getting work.  Got to the point of actually consuming and just didn't enjoy it.  The brief memory of being disgusted by doing the same thing a couple of years ago made me feel happy and grounded in time for a while, but now I just feel ill.  I guess I have to go eat more, though.  Otherwise I'm not going to be able to sit through German class tomorrow.

Time to recognize it and hope it goes away soon, because there's no clear reason for it this time.  Just gotta sit it out and then I can be productive in a few weeks.  Super-productive like I usually am, unlike now, when I'm sitting around like a worthless sack of sludge.

No matter what happens, no matter what the universe throws at me, I am NEVER unhappy for long. Forget the bad, fix the issue, fight the bully. The world does not control you, you control the world. Be the master of your destiny. Be king/queen of your own life.

The only death we die is when we frown. So smile, look at the things that are making you sad, and make them pay.

I will never be unhappy, for I am become death, I am become life, I am the Alpha, I am forever.

I.
Am.
HUMAN.

You seem to not understand that there is no "bad," "issue," or "bully" to fight.

There's nothing but my own mind.

That would be the issue.

You have to refuse to let it have hold on you. You have to REFUSE to submit to your own self. You have to become, for all intents and purposes, separate from yourself, then defeat and subjugglate yourself, and then get back to whatever the fuck you were doing.

There is No-one, NOBODY, that can tell you what to do, least of all yourself. Life is far too long to spend doing boring shit like being depressed. Tell the sad part of you to fuck off and go bother someone else, like an evil stepsister, or your mother-in-law, or Sarah Palin. After you do it once, it's easy. I did it when I was seven. It's less a matter of mental agility or strength and more a matter of being able to reach deep inside yourself for a giant bottle of Shut the Fuck Up and being able to quaff that shit like gatorade. Then you're free to be happy and joyus and burninate anything you want with mind powers.

Alright maybe no mind powers. But the burnination can still happen, if you don't mind prison. And you'll never be sad for more than 12 hours. It's like a giant steel floodgate. Hard to get through the first time, easy the rest of the time.
