Hey /adv/ I was thinking about enrolling in Santa Monica Community College fall of 2017. Have any of you gone to school there or known someone who has? If so, could you tell me either your or their experience?
>>17338720
It's above average for a community college.
>>17338756
That's what I heard, did you attend?

AND I REMEMBER THE DAY
WHEN YOU LEFT FOR SANTA MONICA
I'm on 20mg Prozac and I have been for the past two months. Can I take lsd? Will it ruin my trip? What is okay to take with my medication besides weed?
I wouldn't do it.
Especially if you have a disorder that causes derealization that the Prozac is helping you with.
Two months and you will just be getting settled on the Prozac, now is definitely not the time to go fucking around with LSD.
Don't be retarded anon.
All you really need to know is that the LSD's effectiveness will be reduced by any SSRI medication.
Aside from that, you should still be able to trip just fine.
Refer to this chart for more info on drugs you can use with your medication. Assuming you aren't on any other medications, SSRI's generally reduce the overall effectiveness of most drugs, though there are a few fatal interactions.
Most importantly, make sure you're happy going into the trip. If you feel down for any reason on the day, I can't stress that you just save it until later. LSD is a massive emotion amplifier, and if you're depressed on the day, it'll be a disaster.

To expand on this a little bit, don't increase your dosage to account for the possible reduction in effectiveness. The anon above makes a very very good point, but if you feel you are comfortable enough to trip, there's no reason you shouldn't do so. It's a very magical experience with the right set and setting.
Got myself in a shit show, how to ghost people when they know where you live/go to school? What about your online presence?
No need to ghost. If you tell the truth and you're just talking that's your business. How other perceive it is theirs. If they don't want to talk about it, then let it go. No use of worrying about someone who obviously might not want to talk to you. If it truly bothers them they'll discuss it with the other person like an adult.
>>17338662
>how to ghost people when they know where you live/go to school?
You don't. You can't ghost if you can't vanish.
Not that you should anyway. Ghosting is an incredibly cruel practice. But in your case, it wouldn't even work.
Comforting words..
How much do you need to smoke in order to get withdrawals? I've been smoking 1 cigarette a day roughly for a little bit more than 1 year. I've been on and off with it though. I like it because it gives me a good base of calmness and boosts my mood and lessens social anxiety.
This past week I binged a little and was having 3-5 a day. I never done this before and I felt gross so I decided to cut it out.
2 days later I get a little bit of cravings, but right now I feel super depressed and a little anxious. Is it possible in any way that I'm facing withdrawals or are those only for the heavy smokers that smoke half a pack-full pack a day? Or am I stressed because of other external factors?
Smoke more than 1 at once and you should be good.
>>17338675
This is some pretty opposite advice
>>17338658
Have fun with that cancer
When is the best age to have kids, /adv/ ? What are some factors to determine if you are ready to have kids?
25 is the ideal age, by then you should be married, established in your career, and own a house. After age 30 your child WILL have birth defects.
>>17338646
during your 20's. around 30's thats when most women biological clock starts ticking
>What are some factors to determine if you are ready to have kids?
have a good paying job, money and a partner you can trust
>>17338651
Would you say early 20s or late 20s? Is this from experience?
I am sad, depressed, and lonely. Make me feel better, /adv/

Got pic related prescribed for my depression/OCD/6billion different kinds of anxiety, I've started yesterday, and tonight I had such a hard time cumming while fapping, it lasted more than 2h (my dick fucking hurts), is it the loss of libido side effect ? if yes is it normal that it starts so early ? my therapist said that the effect would kick in in about 20 days
Yes they are a side effect. I don't know how early they can kick in.
if the side effect is troublesome to you, talk to your psychiatrist and see if you can try another medication
>>17338559
Yeah, ask your doctor about NDRI treatment as an alternative if libido loss bothers you.
Also have OCD and SSRIs fuck with my libido badly. Like its caused relationship issues in the past. Also weird weight gain. Fucking hate SSRIs - not even as useful as CB therapy.
Also, unless they are controlled release, they will start to fail you. Generics are almost never CR and namenrand CR formulas are expensive.
Probably not what you wanted to hear but oh well.
.t. OCD bro who has been off and on SSRIs for years.
So a little background about me, 22 year old lady. I've had a lot of sex, between being in multiple months-years long relationships. Always wear a condom and on the pill so I've never been preggers, no STD's, all that. But I have a problem committing and I hadn't found a guy that I felt was truly compatible with me.
I've started dating this guy, 22 year old dude I met online, lives nearby and we've been on about 3 dates. However he's never had a girlfriend (he says that he hadn't found anyone compatible either), and I'm 99% sure he's a virgin. I don't know, but I doubt he's even had a woman touch his dick at all. But he's cute, funny, and most importantly I feel compatible as friends, which is something that I've been lacking with dudes.
So we had our first kiss yesterday and it was obvious he had no idea what he was doing. And he knew it. So I told him that it was fine (I don't really care, I'm sure he'll get better over time) but now I'm wondering how I should handle the fact that he's inexperienced.
I don't 100% know for sure he's a virgin (it said so on his dating profile but who knows how long ago he answered that) but I'm pretty positive he is one. He's physically hesitant since he's inexperienced and I'm physically hesitant because I tend to rush too quickly into sex.
So TLDR; How should I pace things with a virgin boyfriend? Should I ask him if he's a virgin if we've only been on 3 dates? Should I wait for him to make the first move as far as making out/etc goes? Any advice? I just don't want to be patronizing or emasculating
pls help
I met up a couple times with this Okcupid chick. Aside from being batshit crazy, she asked me straight up if I'd had any relationships before. When I said I hadn't, she went something along the lines of 'Really? But you're so handsome, how can you not have had dates or relationships before?'
Even though it was meant to be a compliment I assume, it still hurt. My advice is to not mention it.
What exactly about that hurt you though? Like that she was saying that your looks were all there was to you or..? Just trying to understand better.
And I just don't want him to be nervous or anything, and I want to let him know that I like.. support him, if that makes sense. I don't want him to feel pressured one way or the other, but should I just let him come to me about it?
My life is worthless and I want to die. Any tips for how I can make things better?
have you tried embracing despair to ensure the continued survival of the universe?

You can stop making this thread
OK so I feel like this is a stupid question, but I can't find the answer anywhere. I need to make lots of permanent emails relatively easily, but every website I find either requires a phone number, stops working after I make a few emails, or it doesn't work at all.
tl;dr
How do I make lots of email addresses quickly and easily
Which website is it?
You can usually get away with throwing a period in
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]
Or, if it's a gmail account, you can use + to differentiate emails. And everything will be sent to your inbox. Plus (hehe), you get to see who sold your email.

>>17338329
Get a real job you waste of space, instead of trying to scam people on the internet.
>>17338368
I'm not sure what you mean. I've been making the emails like
[email protected]
[email protected]
Etc
Every service that I've made a few emails with just stops working after I've made a few emails. It's very frustrating.
>>17338371
I'm not trying to scam anyone, I am trying to sell accounts that need emails to be created. I'm just providing a service, I would never scam people.
Hear my story /b/tards:

>Get more mature
>I really want to date her/ fuck her hard
>I get weird signals from her that I might be able to make a move
>Her best friend dates my brother
>Don't know if I have a chance
>Don't know if I am just the thirsty guy
>Don't know if I could get out of the friend zone
>She knows so much about me
>Idk if I have any chance with her
Whats this post about?
What are you even asking
You can do one of two things
1. Go for it and realize that the worst thing that can happen is you getting turned down.
2. Be too scared of the possible consequences and live with the "what if" for the rest of your life.
Don't be a bitch OP. Pick #1.

Anyone have any advice for how I can guess my IQ, or gauge my intelligence? I was adopted and had a really traumatic childhood, so it is often difficult for me to tell whether my actions are due to stupidity or trauma (especially social skills).
Also does anyone here know how I could take a proper IQ test in Canada?
>>17338143
Your actions are yours alone so take responsibility for them.
IQ can be measured by an official iq test.
same. Wasn't adopted but had shit parents. It's self doubt btw that makes you do bad things as well. Same self doubt that makes you think you are stupid.
>>17338143
You can buy a do-it-yourself IQ test book in any bookstore.
But it will be worthless. IQ tests were discredited decades ago and no school or university or employer uses them.
If you care, here's the history. IQ tests were invented over 100 years ago, and since people scored differently on them, it was assumed they measured something. But decades of testing the tests proved that the IQ test measures only one thing - your skill at taking IQ tests.
For a while it was thought there might be some connection between that and doing well in school. But even that was shot down, since a lot of doing well in school involves being good at taking tests.
There are other kinds of tests, that measure your reading ability or your math ability. But nothing that defines how "smart" or "stupid" you are.
How long does it last in your system?
I got back from vaca early last month and smoked twice, once on the 4th and once on the 11th. Just one bowl each day. Prior to that, I smoked once - roughly 2 months ie late march. I have not smoked since june 11th
I literately just got off the phone now with an amazing offer for a job and they mentioned a drug test. I'm really fucking nervous. I told myself I wouldnt smoke in June until I find a job just in case they ask for a drug test. But it has been like a decade since I needed to take that test and figured I wouldnt run into any opportunities that required that test.
I eat healthy, I go to the gym about 4 times a week for about an hour. I drink tons of water, hardly any juice or soda. I sleep well. I have a healthy, fast metabolism.
I've looked online, one source said due to my infrequency, it would probably last in my system a couple of days. I'm sure next week I'll start going through the process of the background check etc. Will I pass a drug test? It will be roughly a month since I've smoked.
I'm going to go to the gym the next few days and sweat like a mad man with the cardio.
From what I've read thc will stop being g detected after two weeks, you outta be fine anon
marijuana stores in your fat cells so don't eat too much fat. Get one of those Niacin clear out kits at your local head shop just to be safe. I've passed a test the next day before when I wasn't smoking frequently, if you have a fast metabolism you should be aight. Good luck!
Stays in system for 3 months

But they sell pills to clear your system from it being traced.
I always get so attached to a certain person, one I have a romantic interest and a crush on. I just want to stop caring this much. I work, I lift, I do a lot of activities, but I still think about crushes, and I often get pissed of from the slightest shit.
I just want to stop caring. Maybe it is a desperation that I get rejected a lot, but it is annoying. I get to involves and if I get rejected, it stays on my mind and I take it personally.
Tl;dr OP is a pussy who gets attached too fast to crushes and wants it to stop.
Sounds like me except when I get rejected I magically stop caring somehow. It's her loss because I'm fucking awesome.
>>17337431
I mean yeah. That happenes to me as well. But when she tells me. When I feel that it is done, that is when I get annoyingly stupid
>>17337428
Yeah man I know your not gonna want to hear this but that shit just takes time. It'll go away months or years but it will go away
Is it worth chasing my sissy fantasies or will it ruin my mental health and chances with girls in the future?
Would you prefer someone who owned who they were, or pretended to be normal to fit in?
>>17337394
Jokes on you Anon, everyone pretends.
>>17337401
Yeah, but do you want to?
