Question by Lexi: Self-harming at 13? I can’t take no more.?
Ok. So I self harm loads! I’ve got them all down my arms on my legs. Even my belly. I’m not proud of it atall. But it’s become like an addiction. I’m bulimic so once I throw up, I self harm to punish myself for eating. But I’m gettin grief of my parents (all my mates do it for no reason which is so ******* stupid) but I do have loads of reasons. . . . . These are just some of them. I’m adopted. This guy bullies me because my family don’t love me. Found out on Facebook that my real mam is dead. But my adopted mam and dad haven’t told me and they don’t even know that I know. She’s been dead for 4 years now.:( I didn’t even say goodbye. She was a prostitute, a druggi and a alcoholic. She forced my brothers at a young age to do drugs. If I wasn’t taken away from her I would be on drugs too. But il feel like I have to liv up to what her and my brothers did. Because she was a prostitute she had loads of kids. So I’ve got a lot of siblings. I’m not even aloud to see them. Just before christmas one of my brothers went to prison for the 3rd time. And that was sooo hard for me. I’d cry myself to sleep ever night. Non of my mates understand. I’m starting counselling this month. I don’t want to but mam n dad and my skwl think it will help me. Im starting counselling as well for my eating. I’ll do another question about that. — I’ve attempted suicide cuz everything’s too much. I’m a burden. Everything is always my fault. Please help:( I don’t know what to do anymore. I don’t know how to cope.

Question by Maggie: How do I deal with pet deaths?
My rat died yesterday, and this morning my other rat joined her. How do I deal with it?

Answer by lovemice
I am so, so sorry. It is hard enough to lose one rodent let alone two in such a short span. I find it helpful to post a memorial on a Mousie Heaven for my lost mice. A rat forum I also use has a Rainbow Bridge category called, “Over the Rainbow Bridge” where you can do the same for your little ones. The link is below:

You may also find an article written by the AFRMA (American Fancy Rat and Mouse Association) helpful. It is called, “Companion Animal Loss &
Pet Owner Grief”. It is in two parts as follows:

Question by I’m a Mommy ?: Do you want to be forced to pay for health care?
1 – Do you think that government forced health care, and all the mandatory requirements that come with it (such as “end of life counseling” for seniors) is right?

#2 – If you were buying a car and the dealer handed you a 1000 page contract and pressured you to sign it before they closed without giving you adequate time to read it, would you do it? Do you think our elected officials, who are supposed to be voicing the will of the people they represent, should be put under the same similar pressure?

this is why this health care pkg. is being rejected.
