I feel like an idiot as always
I feel completely horrible. I have anxiety never known a time I didn't. But something happened today bit of context. I noticed my dog was itching a lot so I'm thinking allergies simple right, so I gave him a medicated bath. That's when he started wining and scratching more im thinking that I've just made it worse so I panic and get his clippers and shave the area he most itching so I can apply ointment directly on his skin. He keeps wining. So I'm thinking I'm such an idiot and I've made it worse I'm the reason why my dog is uncomfortable and in pain, and that I'm this completely inadequate person to look after my dog that I'm stupid and should be trusted. My rational side of my brain is like no you did the right thing that I may have irritated him more but its was for the best to be able to make him more comfortable.

Well, sometimes self-medication can help, but you probably should have taken him to a clinic or something. But you tried to do the best you could, based on your knowledge and skills. It's already happened, and no matter what, you can still fix the situation. The main thing is not to beat yourself up; it won't help the situation physically, but it will destroy you psychologically. So I hope you can pull yourself together and make the right decisions. Hang in there and good luck!
The medicated bath and the ointment is from a vet clinic I apologise I should of mentioned that in the post they are both use as needed treatmentsince since its skin allergies
