  • Thank you for giving sincere advice.
    Unfortunately my older brother still lives with my parents...If/when I decide to rehome my dog I will do what I can to avoid leaving him at a shelter. I want the dog to actually have a good life and I can't give him that.

    I have sought help in the past, but I have no intentions of getting on meds just to be able to deal with a dog. I want to focus my time and energy on getting myself in better shape mentally overall, and I am trying to work on that holistically.

    Thank you for sharing your personal story as well.

    • I'm glad you care so much about ensuring your dog has a good life! I don't blame you for not wanting to get on meds just to make a situation work that isn't, as I've been on SSRIs in the past that really screwed with me and don't think they're worth it if they're not absolutely needed.

      No problem, I am glad I could help!
