Came home from taking my partner to work & saw that our dog got into a toxic houseplant, but I was also late for a meeting. Was trying to log on, respond to "where are you" WhatsApps, concentrate on the shit I was supposed to be in the meeting for & contact our vet simultaneously

The vet said to just keep an eye on the dog & get back in touch if she shows signs of toxicity (drooling, puking, etc) & frankly it was impossible to focus on what anyone was saying on that call. I feel whiplashed and frantic, even though the meeting ended nearly 30 minutes ago

Now I feel irresponsible to my dog, inadequate and disconnected from the project I& #39;m supposed to be helping on (what the fuck did they say I& #39;m supposed to do before we meet again?), & generally derailed. This kinda feeling takes me a long time to recover from, for myriad reasons

That& #39;s all, I don& #39;t have any conclusion to this thread and am mostly just venting, to be honest. I& #39;m stressed about the dog and I& #39;m hella fucking sick of having elevated cortisol every minute of every g-ddamned day.
