About Daimeera
Hello there!
I'm a 21 year old female from Nova Scotia, Canada. I'm not as active on this site as I once was, but I will almost certainly reply to private questions sent to me.
Let's see, about me. I've been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Clinical Depression, as well as some other related mental and physical illnesses. Despite this, I'm happier now than I can ever remember being.
I've been a vegan since August 2007. In other words, I do my best not to consume anything of animal origin, ranging from the obvious (meat), to the somewhat obvious (eggs and dairy), to the not-so-obvious (honey, wool, silk, and more). I love this life. I have so much more appreciation for everything and everyone around me, and I feel so at peace with myself and the world. I wake up everyday and know that I'm making a difference. It's been a huge turning point in my life.
I recently graduated from high school after an extra three years due to my illness. It was a long road, but it felt amazing to walk across that stage. An added bonus was having the 15th highest average (over my high school career) out of 258 students!
I intend to pursue a career in psychology, first obtaining my BA, and then attending graduate school in order to study for my PhD. It's a little daunting at times, but I know it will be worth it. I want to help people, plain and simple. I want to make a difference. I want to change the world. And I believe I can, if only in a small way.
I think that's me in a nutshell. I also enjoy writing, knitting, multiple other artistic endeavors (including drawing, photography, music, and more), web design, and many other things. So, feel free to drop me a message if you think there's something I can help with.
Psst, guess what? I, like everyone else, have my very own message board! You can visit it here.

so i got my kitten 2 and a half months ago and she was great. then she started gettting very fierce. like she starts biting me and scratching me. i cant even pet her anymore! she bites pretty hard. i cant do anything with her cuz then she attacks me. what should i do?
and i cant have eye contact with her because she wont even look at me in the eye. like she would and then quickly turn away. she just doesnt like me. i cant pet her or touch her or hold her carry her nothing cuz then she starts biting me and scratching me! any advice?comments? anything?
thanks!!!!!!!!!!!
Depending on her age, she might be teething. Don't hit her, because rather than associating pain with biting you, she'll associate it with you in general.
Make sure you're playing with her enough. She might be trying to play with you; that's how kittens initiate play with one another. Give her plenty of toys and one-on-one time, make sure she has something other than you to chew!
You might want to take her to see the vet. Because this is new behaviour, it might be a sign that something is wrong with her health. If she's experiencing pain, for instance, lashing out might be her way of expressing it.
Best of luck.
