I have been dealing with anxiety issues in my life for the past several years, and what I thought would be an exciting new chapter in my life by adopting a foster kitten a few days ago has instead turned into a massive source of stress for me.
I got everything I needed for her, she’s playful and healthy and extremely cute but… I just can’t get rid of this feeling that something isn’t right. It’s like I can’t help but over fixate on anything she’s doing to a detrimental degree.
I feel like I’m having second thoughts and that she deserves to have better owners than me, maybe a family or something like that. But then the thought of having to contact her fosters to tell them that the adoption isn’t working out is equally stressful for me.
I’m not sure what to do. Does anybody have any advice or experiences with this? How much time should I give it to see if there’s some improvement on my end?
The saddest thing is that there’s nothing wrong with her, she’s wonderful… I’m just don’t think I’m in the right headspace for this.
