I don't really deal with death well.
My rat Pretzel had a giant open wound right above her right haunch for months.
For a while it scabbed over and I assumed she would be okay.
Then recently it grew swollen and probably infected.
I told my mom and she basically shrugged it off.
She died over night and I found her body this morning and now...
I really just blame myself, though I'm not sure why.

I understand this 100%. I have owned some rats myself (still do) and I've had two die for unknown reasons, yet I still blamed myself. It is very easy to get attached to them and that's something most people don't understand. Please try not to be too hard on yourself. There wasn't much you could do; you weren't aware that the wound was so dangerous. Just remember that you gave her a good life. I'm very sorry for your loss. </3 Feel free to pm me if you ever need to talk about it.

Thank you very much for this.
It means a lot to me, even if I can't properly express that.

Firstly its not your fault nor ever will be you did everything you could but sometimes these things do happen and sometimes it's for the best as at least she won't be in pain anymore and even though she may not be here literally her memory and love always will be in side your heart and your mind and her story has been told she wouldn't want to see you like this and I know it can be hard but try to keep your head held high in memory for her because she still loves you and she is not giving up on you

Thank you for always being there for people who need it.
It means a lot to know that people care, even if I spend a ton of time complaining.

i feel like a huge baby
a friend of mine and i are planing on seeing that new inside out movie
which i am super excited for! but my friend's parents want my friend and i
to talk and figure out when and where, and my friend called me today,
i didn't pick up the phone. i didn't pick up the phone because i've always had this really weird fear of picking up the phone and talking to someone, and i'm scared to call him back because he doesn't have his own phone and has to use
his home phone, and i'm worried one of his parents who i've rarely spoken too will answer.
i just feel really childish for being too scared to answer a phone!

Its not being childish because if you have a fear of something you can't really help it, though if you call him back and his parents pick up im sure that theyll just give the phone to him if you ask. you can always ask your parents to call them and talk about the plan too, if you really need them to.

I post here too often >.<
so in a sarcastic voice my dad just told me:
"What I great daughter I have. I'm so proud
to call you my daughter. I couldn't ask for any
other girl in the world to be my daughter.
Your so kind and caring."
Well thanks, I'm already stressed enough.
It's so hard suppressing a scream.
Crying is even worse.
My anxiety is already piling ontop of my shoulders
because I have to go to the movies tonight, and
my dad just made me feel 100000x better....
