I don't have any additional advice to offer. There are lots of good comments already for that. But I did want to share that I also was afraid of taking meds for a long time because I'd heard horror stories (mostly on TV/in movies) of the meds making you almost catatonic, and that wasn't how I wanted to live my life. However, I've been taking anti-anxiety meds for over 10 years now, and I can confidently say that they are a huge help. I've changed doses several times, including recently adding an "as needed" med for times I know my stress/anxiety levels will rise. I recommend working with your doctor to figure out the best med/med combo for you, but for me personally, I've found a lot of success with Sertraline (generic Zoloft), although it does take about a month for dose changes to take effect, and Buspirone (generic Buspar) for my "as needed" extra.

Also, know that you are not alone, from one internet stranger to another.

I don't think cats realize how hilarious they are when they use their grumpy faces. ❤️

Unfortunately, I don't have any help to offer, but I did want to let you know that it is possible to install on Android from Chrome. I'm replying from mine right now.

Clearing browsing history sounds like a good first step if you haven't tried that yet. Good luck getting it figured out!

Those eyes! How can you ever deny her anything?! 🥰

[-] ferrent22@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

But she's looking so regal while she does.... So, I deem it appropriate behavior. 😜

Hello from myself and my 4 ferrets from Madison! 👋

[-] ferrent22@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

I started with 2, but ended up rehoming 2 more. It worked out well for us since my first two were very different personality-wise and now the one that is always up has 3 siblings to play with instead of just one quite lazy one. 😆

It definitely helps telling them apart that they're all different colors. 😆

Hello everyone! I'm currently living in Madison, WI, but I grew up in South Dakota. Definitely a midwesterner at heart. Currently living with my 4 ferrets, and getting used to the fediverse. 😊
