After dropping out of school, there is no interpersonal interaction. The rabbit suddenly feels unwell these days. What should I do? By Anonymous | Published on December 27, 2024

Basically, a person has knots and is with their parents. Although they are taken care of, they have a generation gap with them, and their parents are also sometimes first-time parents, so it is inevitable that they are not that good. Every time they don't have anything wrong, I want to ask. The local veterinary hospital doctor does not specialize in exotic pet rabbits. The rabbit has been fine all this time. These past few days, it suddenly isn't doing well. I found it breathing with its mouth open while sleeping next to me at night. It breathes up and down on its body, and the breathing sound is also very loud, as if it can't breathe. I have to accept the fact that she is not here anymore. Two years is not the feeling of seeing someone else's vet that one time. After being together for a long time, it usually breathes weakly. I'm scared. I saw her mouth and chin sitting close to the bottom of her body, and there was a lot of yellow fur on top, and it smelled a bit stinky. I don't... It's a bit warm. Usually, it looks fine. That day, it was passive, and it had to pant every now and then. But it would go eat and find things to eat, go to the toilet, and play. But it felt different from usual. It's like us humans. Usually, we can't

Hello, I'm Gu Daoxi, also known as Fengshou Skinny Donkey!

From the description of the questioner, I can tell that they have a great understanding of others, which can sometimes make people feel a little distressed. We are excited to see how the generation gap will evolve. On the one hand, it's the feelings that we conjure up in our hearts; on the other hand, it's true that parents will have some concerns under the pressure of life.

On a positive note, parents may have some things they can't say for fear of losing face, but there are plenty of other ways to get the support you need!

The rabbit is not only a playmate but also a source of emotional support. It's totally understandable to worry about the rabbit's health and fear losing it. The good news is that you can ask your parents to help you find a solution. You can even write them a message or letter. You can also ask people online or local stores to see if there is a better solution.

Absolutely! Dropping out of a noisy group environment can lead to a sense of discomfort and loneliness. If the questioner has a knot in their heart, they can try communicating with their parents. Parents may not say anything to show their concern for fear of losing face, but most parents are still willing to listen if you take the initiative to open up to them.

The questioner can also try to find some hobbies for themselves to keep themselves busy, and it'll be amazing how much more fulfilling life will feel! They'll also become more confident.

Finally, the questioner can also try reading some related books to get to know themselves better and learn more about communication. For example, "Embracing Your Inner Child" and "Nonviolent Communication" are great places to start!

Wishing you all the best!

Hello, questioner! It's like seeing someone in person when you read their words.

After reading this description carefully, I can feel through the lines that you are trying very hard to express yourself. You say that you have a knot in your heart, which is totally normal! Although you are with your parents and they take care of you, you feel a generation gap with them. You also kindly understand the fact that they are also first-time parents, so you feel it is normal for them to not understand you. Up to this point, I really sincerely feel your observant and insightful qualities, which I think are really great!

And now, you finally have some time to take care of yourself. I'm thrilled to have met you in this state of confusion. Let's talk about it!

Since dropping out of school, you have basically been living alone, with a knot in your heart that you don't think your parents can understand. After feeling a generation gap between yourself and your parents, I noticed something really interesting. You mentioned your own rabbit in the following description!

You mentioned that the rabbit has always been fine, but these past few days it has suddenly been unwell. Because at night when it sleeps next to you, you notice that it is breathing with its mouth open and its body is moving up and down as if it is having some difficulty breathing.

The rabbit wasn't feeling well, so you took it to the vet, who couldn't cure it.

My dear, I have to tell you something amazing! Up to this point, I have sensed a subtle and beautiful relationship of mutual comfort and companionship between you and the rabbit. It is sick, and you are taking care of it as its parents. The rabbit can give you the companionship and comfort that you cannot get from your parents!

This is a wonderful, healing connection between you and the rabbit!

And there is one more important thing I want to share with you: you dropped out of school and left your old social circle, but you can always build a new one! This will make the support you receive even stronger, and only when you have stronger support can you grow into a better and more confident person in the future.

You've already taken an important step towards growth! You came to the platform for help, and that's a great start. I can feel you trying to break something inside yourself, whether it be fear or a restriction. You are looking forward to the day when the sun shines through the cracks you have worked so hard to break. I know you are ready!

How do I know you're ready? Easy! It's all in the action. When you come to the platform for help, that's how I'll know.

I'll leave you with a few words that I know will encourage you!

❤. You are an amazingly caring partner! Keep up the great work!

❤. Your "observant" and "knowledgeable" nature is a fantastic asset that you can use to help others and protect yourself. Make the most of it!

❤. When you need to let go, go for it! Have courage, confidence, and assurance. You can do this! There will be someone in this world who can give you a steady and secure sense of safety.

And the best part is, you can be your own most powerful support!

I'd also like to highly recommend another book to you: The Power of Self-Esteem by the amazing French author Christophe André!

I really hope the above responses and sharing can be of some help to you!

Take the best care of yourself!

Hello, dear questioner!

Hello! I'm Lingjing 灬, and I'm so happy to have this chance to chat with you.

I can imagine how worried you must be, seeing as your sweet bunny has always been by your side. It's so adorable, but recently it's been acting a bit strangely. I can understand why you're concerned, as it seems like it might be unwell. It's so important to you, but it's clear that it's in a lot of pain and there's nothing you can do to help. I'm here to support you through this.

Don't you worry, my friend. Let me give you a warm hug first.

I've also had the pleasure of keeping rabbits as pets. They're not prone to getting sick, but they are small animals with relatively low resistance and a fast metabolism, so they're not easy to treat once they're sick. You noticed the first sign of something being wrong, which shows you're very attentive and fond of your little pet. Then you can start by judging from a few points:

It's always a good idea to think back and see if there were any changes in your pet's habits before it became a little under the weather. Things like taking a bath, changing its food, eating something different from usual, or coming into contact with other animals could all be worth looking into. If you think you've found the cause, don't worry!

It's a good idea to record its symptoms so you know what to expect. Then, just keep an eye on things to see if things change over time. If it's getting better and better every day, it's probably recovering on its own. In that case, just be careful not to change its feeding habits.

If it gets worse, don't worry! You can always look it up online based on the symptoms you've recorded. Some pets will have some typical problems, but there are also targeted solutions.

From your description, it sounds like it might be a little bit of an upper respiratory infection. Don't worry, this is something that can be treated with a small dose of antibiotics added to its food or water. I'd recommend trying this in combination with the answer you found or the opinions of other people, as it's always good to get a second opinion.

Pets are usually pretty healthy, and it's usually just a matter of adjusting to a change in routine. So, there's no need to stress! But, when your pet is feeling under the weather, it's also important to keep an eye on hygiene and disinfect properly to keep everyone safe.

Hi there! I'm an enthusiastic answerer, psychological listener, offline consultant, health manager, nutritionist, and Chinese medicine health enthusiast. I'm really excited to help you learn more about how to face life's challenges and to share my experience to help others.

Hello, my child. I hug you and I want you to feel the warmth and support.

I know you're worried about your rabbit. It's your good friend, and you need its company. When something seems wrong with your friend, you'll be worried and scared.

Furthermore, you have been proactive in seeking medical attention, which demonstrates your commitment to caring for this issue. Don't let fear or worry hold you back. The situation might not be as dire as we initially thought. There are still avenues for assistance and resources within our reach. Regarding interpersonal relationships, it's essential to acknowledge our own needs and seek out supportive connections. We must also communicate our needs to our parents. They may have limitations, but they are still capable of providing support and nourishment in a relationship. When we express our needs and difficulties, our parents will be more likely to try their best to help us.

I advise you to:

You can seek out resources to find ways and means to take care of the rabbit.

You said the doctor at the pet hospital was unprofessional and didn't do any tests. They also don't have the equipment and instruments for that. We can go to two more pet hospitals and consult friends and family who keep rabbits. We can also ask the seller where you bought the rabbit from. They should know something about this. It's okay to tell them about your current troubles and seek their guidance.

Tell your parents about your troubles and let them find resources. This little rabbit is important to you, and you're worried about it now. You need help taking care of it, and you want your parents to help.

2. Don't face difficulties alone. Get help from your social support system. You deserve help.

Asking questions late at night makes it clear that you feel helpless. You need to ask yourself whether you feel like there is no one around you who can help you. You need to ask yourself whether you feel isolated and helpless.

If this is the case, you will undoubtedly feel helpless and sad. However, you must remember that there are still resources around us. If you are willing to seek help from others, most people are willing to help.

Seek help from your social support system when you encounter difficulties. You are not alone. There are people around you who care about and love you. If you tell your parents how you feel and what you need, and ask for their help, they will try their best to help you. Tell your parents, "Bunny doesn't feel well. I'm worried. I need your support and help. I don't know what to do. Do you have any ideas on how we can take care of it together?"

Parents and grandparents have more resources and experience, and they know what they're talking about.

Your friends, other family members, and other social resources are all available to you for help. You can find relevant information, professionals for consultation and advice, or communicate and ask questions in the pet community. See these resources and the support and help from everyone around you. Know that you are not alone.

3. You must recognize your own inner desires and needs in regard to interpersonal relationships. Despite having dropped out of school, you can still maintain your own interpersonal relationships and engage in selective socialization. First and foremost, you should prioritize spending time with individuals who can understand and support you.

I believe you have a strong desire and need for relationships. Your care and concern for the rabbit is a clear indication of this. Without a partner, the rabbit's company provides a warm and loving relationship, which you value greatly. Pets can offer us company and warmth, but this also demonstrates our fundamental need for relationships.

Humans are social creatures. We need relationships, and we must value our need for them. Even though we've dropped out of school, we haven't lost our relationships. We can still have our own relationships. If you don't want too many relationships right now, start by selectively socializing. Socialize with people who understand, accept, and support you. This will make your relationships warmer, more supportive, and more caring. It will also give you the strength to grow beyond yourself through these relationships.

I want to make it clear that we must also handle our relationship with ourselves. We need to be someone who can accept, understand, and support ourselves. You are your own best friend. When you encounter difficulties, you must care for yourself, hold yourself, encourage yourself, and not blame, attack, or doubt yourself. When your relationship with yourself improves, you will also have more harmonious relationships.

This is for your reference. Best wishes!

Hello, I am Xin Tan, Coach Fei Yun. 2023 is going to be a great year for you.

Your words reveal a kind and loving side of you. You care for small animals and show them love. I also sense your loneliness. You left school and are home alone, with little social interaction. Your parents are there, but there's a generation gap.

Let's explore this together.

1. You are concerned and attentive to small animals and see patterns in your interpersonal relationships.

You talk about the rabbit throughout the text, and it's clear you love and care for it.

You care for it as a parent would care for you, although the rabbit cannot express its love and gratitude to you. You also understand and love your parents (they are also first-time parents), but you rarely express it.

Your interaction with the rabbit is a reflection of how you interact with your parents and others.

You hold back a lot of love and attention inside and don't express it fully, so the other person doesn't know. Even if they want to connect with you more deeply, it can only happen as a result of your interaction with them.

You are passive in your relationships and not good at initiating communication. You want to be cared for, understood, and have more friends, but you also avoid and escape.

2. Focus on the health problems of small animals and recognize your emotions and emotional needs.

You say that basically, a person has their own set of problems. You are with your parents, who take care of you, but you feel a generation gap with them. Especially after dropping out of school, you have lost the opportunity to connect with the outside world as you once did.

The loneliness and helplessness of not being understood due to a lack of communication makes you and the rabbit "dependent on each other" and "sympathize with each other's suffering."

When you see a wounded or sick bunny, you see yourself. You are helpless and alone, struggling desperately to survive, but there is nothing you can do.

Your concern and care for the little rabbit is also a reflection of your love for yourself. You are longing for love, you desire to be truly understood by your parents, and you hope that more friends will be able to listen to you. These feelings are a clear indication that you need to prioritize your own emotional needs.

Once you recognize these emotional needs, you'll have new options. You can keep small animals or start new hobbies (WeChat, Xiaohongshu, video accounts, etc.). Writing is a way of self-healing that allows you to have a good sense of yourself and connect with yourself.

You can also strengthen communication with your parents, build a foundation of love, and directly express what you want. Your parents can meet your emotional needs, such as spending time with you and listening to your feelings attentively, within the limits of their abilities. Your family is your greatest support, and your parents give you unconditional love and acceptance.

You must recognize your own value. Give yourself a good review, understand and accept yourself. When we care for ourselves, we also feel the love of others for ourselves.

Read "The Power of Self-Growth," "You Have to Believe," and "It Turns Out That Understanding Is More Important Than Love" with me. They'll help you bloom.

I am confident that the above will be helpful to you. The world and I love you.

If you want to continue the conversation, click "Find a coach" in the upper right corner or at the bottom. I will communicate and grow with you one-on-one.

Dear student, My name is Duo Duo Lian, and I am here to support you.

You dropped out of school, have no friends to talk to, and even the rabbit is sick. You must feel lonely and helpless. When you go to the pet hospital, there is no equipment to examine it, and it has not been given any medicine. You must be very anxious, worrying about the rabbit's life. You turned to the help platform, hoping to get support.

You are kind and considerate of others. I know there are obstacles to communication with your parents and limitations on their part, but I feel for you. If you can be considerate of others, you will accept yourself. When you faced a situation with your rabbit, you must have been very sad, but you took it to the vet in time.

If the rabbit gets sick, you can observe what it has eaten recently, look up some information, such as what medicine can be used, consult a professional veterinarian or ask online, and treat it accordingly. The rabbit can feel your care.

You are only a student, and you can only do things within your capabilities. Feed it more water, change its food, and create a good environment for it. If something unexpected happens, you won't blame yourself for inaction. Accept that animals also have a lifespan.

Every life that comes to this world is valuable. Cherishing life, being healthy, and being happy is important. Allowing yourself a temporary rest is also for a better future.

I don't know why you dropped out of school, but you had your reasons. If you can be tolerant of your parents, you will definitely be able to accept yourself. Life is a marathon. Some people run slowly, while others run fast. Follow your own rhythm and compare yourself to yourself. You can do it!

Hi, I'm Qu Huidong, a psychological counselor who likes to use images to communicate.

This question was posted just after 2 a.m. today. You couldn't sleep in, were you worried about your rabbit?

From what you've said, it seems like your pet rabbit has been breathing abnormally for a few days. You've seen a doctor, but the problem hasn't been solved. Your parents don't fully understand your anxiety, and their reassurances haven't given you enough support. You want to understand their powerlessness as first-time parents, but you also expect them to understand and support you.

You're hoping someone can heal your bunny, but you're also afraid of losing it and being even more lonely without this companion.

I know it's tough to think about the possibility of death and losing a partner. I really feel for you. But it's because we're emotional creatures that we grieve, fear, and long for intimacy.

Facing loss with courage is also a lesson that comes with being human.

I wish I could offer more comfort, but I don't have all the answers. I know you're longing for relationships and afraid of losing this one, even the one with this sweet little rabbit.

It could be that the vet's diagnosis is fine and it's still healthy, or it could be that it's really sick and there's no cure. Either way, make the most of every day with it and record its mischievous, cute, well-behaved moments. You can use a camera, a paintbrush, or words. These beautiful memories are a testament to the time you've spent together.

By keeping a record of your experiences, you can also record your emotions. This can help you understand your actions and feelings, give you a sense of reality, and help you get back on track with your normal life.

I'm not sure why you chose to drop out of school or what your plans are after dropping out, so I can't give you more advice here. It's good to see that your parents can take care of you in most cases, and although there is a generation gap in communication, it's not impossible to communicate.

When it's time to ask for support, make sure you express your needs clearly, and they'll be heard.

Wishing you the best!

Brian Jackson The pursuit of knowledge across different landscapes is what enriches a person's intellectual portfolio.

I can sense how deeply this situation with your rabbit is affecting you. It sounds like your bunny has been a big part of your life, and seeing it unwell must be incredibly hard. I wish there was more I could do to help your little one feel better.

Toby Jackson The melody of honesty is heard in the harmony of a just society.

It's heartbreaking to witness a pet struggle, especially when they have been such a significant presence in your daily routine. The changes in your rabbit's behavior are alarming, and the thought of losing it after building such a bond is truly frightening. I hope you can find some peace and support during this tough time.

Matilda Miller There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.

Your description paints a picture of a dedicated caretaker who is very attentive to their pet's needs. It's clear that you care deeply about your rabbit's wellbeing. If there's anything specific you need assistance with or just want to talk about your feelings, I'm here for you.

Paige Gold The more you engage in diligence, the more you discover.

The symptoms you've mentioned concerning your rabbit's breathing and appearance are quite worrying. I understand how scary this must be for you. Have you considered reaching out to an exotic animal specialist or a vet clinic that has experience with rabbits? They might provide guidance on what steps to take next.

Nolan Davis In a world of masks, honesty is the face of truth.

It's understandable to feel scared and uncertain when your pet shows signs of distress. Sometimes even the smallest change in behavior can mean a lot. I hope your rabbit finds comfort and strength, and that you're able to get the help you both need to address these health concerns.
