Cat Diabetes

So as you've probably seen, lately I've been considering what Diabetes will end up looking like, both for my rewrite and any herb guide I make. I had been trying to consider how to strike a balance between Human Diabetes and Feline Diabetes... but I'm not sure if it's possible to do that.

Cat Diabetes and Human Diabetes have significant differences.

Human Diabetes:

Type 1 is typically an autoimmune condition where the body destroys the cells responsible for insulin production, usually with a childhood onset. Type 2 diabetes is the body becoming insulin-resistant despite the pancreas still producing insulin, usually with an adulthood onset.

Type 1 is treated with insulin injections. Type 2 is treated with medication, usually metformin.

In human diabetes, Type 2 does not progress into Type 1.

Feline Diabetes:

Type 1 is the total failure of insulin production in the pancreas, it is very rare in cats. Type 2 is insulin resistance or reduced production in the pancreas, it is common in cats.

Both Type 1 and Type 2 is treated with insulin injections. Type 2 can be managed with medication, but this is becoming an outdated practice because...

In feline diabetes, Type 2 can progress into Type 1. This is a significant side effect of oral medication in cats.

So What?

It didn't come up before in any discussions of what to do, but I've been told that it could be offensive to diabetics to show a character progressing from Type 2 to Type 1, even if they are cats, because that is a misconception of human diabetes.

Ultimately my goal is representation. While I WANT my herb guides to be consistent for Warrior Cats and be adapted for feline biology, I will bend those secondary goals in the name of better reflecting the real human people with fake cat OCs these guides are made for.

I wanted to mix the two and strike a balance between Feline and Human diabetes, but the more I work on this and consider every angle, the more I'm feeling overwhelmed and the enjoyment is actively draining out of it.

I'm not having fun imagining disappointing everyone with a compromise that doesn't accurately portray Diabetes in either species.

So I'm going to commit to making a herb guide that reflects human diabetes, and in this case, ignore feline diabetes. It seems like the more requested option anyway.

I really don’t want to sound entitled or like I’m getting worked up over nothing but like...one of my biggest pet peeves is when you message someone and you see that they’ve read your message and they just DON'T RESPOND

I honestly understand that people may be responding and not hit “send” by accident or just outright forget to respond but...I don’t know it just rubs me the wrong way when it happens so frequently. I don’t think it’s too much to ask for something like a “Hey, I’m busy right now, I’ll message back soon” or “I don’t have an answer to your question right now, let me get back to you”. I feel like if you have the time to read the message, you have the time to send a quick response if you don’t have the time to have a full blown conversation.

And especially when you’ve explained how you feel about it more than once. I’m more sad than anything (having RSD really does not help me), I just automatically assume the worst when I don’t get a response when I know they’ve seen the message...am I allowed to feel this way or am I being dramatic?

It has been a tough evening. I've been very busy lately and haven't had time to grind up my gearscore, so my dps was too low and my friends just kinda. Dropped me from the static and only one of em has said a word to me since. Totally get it, have not been able to dedicate the out of raid time, and my winning personality can only get me so far. I think they're giving me a bit of space; we've been friends for too long for me to immediately assume the worst. But it has definitely been straight up not a good time.

I wanted to let y'all know that coming here, and seeing y'all on the dash and chatting with y'all in replies and tags, brings me so much joy, and that it really brightened up a very dark night. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Another update in experiencing the corporate world through the lens of realizing oh shit I really am autistic:

Had to attend a safety meeting today. My manager is going through the ladder safety packet at a rapid fire pace but pauses when she reads the word "rung" one too many times.

"WTF is a rung?" She says "Someone Google it."

"They're the steps." A coworker chimes in.

"Then why not say steps? And why add the top three if I can't step on them?" My manager asks.

"Well, the last three are for your grip," I reason "And they're called rungs because -"

Queue everyone just laughing and my lead leaning over to say "She wasn't serious, she was just injecting some humor into the lecture."

Which, why the fuck did the other coworker get to answer her question seriously, but me answering her seriously was taken as having missed an obvious social cue and deserving of laughter?

Bonus RSD experience: my lead turning to the entire group who is still laughing.

"She's new," he says to the entire staff. "We can forgive her. She's new."

[tea-and-secrets]

I think I have rejection sensitivity dysphoria thanks to my ADHD, but idk for sure. Idk all of the correct parameters for diagnosing it, either self or via my therapist, and even after very much experiencing it recently I’m still on the fence about whether or not I actually have it lol

NPD BPD combo will make you feel like a starving wild circus animal every time you remember other people exist

RSD (rejection sensitive dysphoria) is literally one of THE WORST ADHD symptoms for me.

Like literally, you CONSTANTLY feel like you're and asshole, and nobody likes you, that no matter how much you try, EVERYBODY IS GOING TO HATE YOU. It's feels really shitty when you can't handle any rejection, because rejection means — you're not good enough, you're never going to succeed, you shouldn't even try.

It's also feels shitty because you understand that you think badly about your friends and family, and you can't stop it, and you feer that if they find out that you think that they hate you, they gonna feel bad, or actually gonna start hating you, or feel bad because you think about them like they gonna hurt your feelings, and you don't want it, right? So what do we do? That's right, pile it up until we burst into tears on the floor because nobody likes you....

It's sucks....

why do miscommunications have to be a Natural Aspect of Human Interaction but also make me feel like a cringefail creature that darwin forgot fr

[callixton]

remember when people on tiktok kept saying that the only possible impact ur adhd symptoms could have on ur life were things that had a direct impact on your attention/focus and Nothing Else. and if u disagreed actually u were just misdiagnosed. that was wack

[majormeilani]
