He looked like a very good listener! I'm glad you ran into him.

There seems to be two choices: compression vests, which do come in adult sizes, and weighted vests for working out, which is what I was thinking of. It looks like you can get one at Walmart for $26 or so that can be weighted up to 110 lbs. Hope that's helpful!

Would a weighted vest be too constricting? They come in different styles and the ability to add or subtract weights.

Owning a pet responsibly is like owning a car: there is the expense of regular maintenance, and then every so often you have to drop a wad of money for a major repair.

Don't get me wrong, my animals are worth it, but I think some first-time pet owners don't realize this.

Eventually, when the cats get older and no longer wash properly, we too will get a Hell Bag. I'm almost looking forward to it...

No idea about your cars, but my cats? Because they can eat them when I don't feel them fast enough in the morning and then I have to the vet because they can't yak them up or pass them.

I love the little gremlins, but they are both bonded rescue cats that have pica or something.

Seriously, I doubt any doctor would recommend a patient with depression to take a "medication holiday."

I appreciate that some doctors are concerned that a med will lose its effectiveness because of tolerance, but can happen with any medication. That's also why there are multiple medications on the market.

Habitica for daily tasks (I like the RPG feel), gobin.tools for breaking down tasks into manageable increments, and the pomodoro app Focus To-Do to keep momentum. I use a paper calendar for appointments and dates and index cards to keep track of tasks that don't have a specific date involved.

Because it could literally be life or death, I wouldn't put it past them to take a page from the ED warmline and try using bots. It sure worked for NEDA... /s

"Midnight Cowboy": great performances, great writing, profound ending, never want to watch it again.
