So i have been tripping on βk-2C-B some days ago. Its an ketone analogue of the good old shulgin favorite.
While the trip was nice, clear and very long, i had to puke. Now it wasnt bad physically, but that shit tasted like the stuff i clean my pissbox with smells. What is up with that ? It shouldnt be unhealthy, but this was by far the worst i ever had to taste in my entire life. I suspect the bromine plays its role in this.

That picture is three years old. All I did was rename it.
Sometimes they keep me up at night. Like tonight. I take Benadryl and melatonin but it doesn't always work. Or if it does, then I sometimes wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep. Like tonight.
I'm having nightmares but I need to sleep. Is there anything I can do? Usually I sleep fine. This doesn't always happen.
>>16798041
we can't really help you if you don't tell us what you've done
>>16798047
It's not like I murderes anyone or anything. But the guilt is about the same. Or is for me.
I just need to sleep. Maybe I need prescription sleeping now drugs.
>>16798053
i didn't think you murdered someone, i'm just saying we kinda need to know what it is you're so guilty about or else we can't really help
guilt don't really go away before you have dealt with it and talked about it
I’m fairly drunk, so please excuse anything that doesn’t make sense. Mild drunkardness was the only state in which I could do this. Whatever this is.
I have something to say, but saying it would mean that I’ve said it, which I’ve always said is ‘too chocked by finality’, or however the saying goes*
But here I am with the thing gathering steam on my tongue, and I gotta get it out before it burns my mouth.
I can no longer tell the difference between opinion and fact, between earnestness and sarcasm or an artwork and an ad. I’m not saying this is a bad thing, as, if history dictates, it could be a phenomenon confined to my mess of a mind, but I feel as if someone’s gotta take to the internet with a color coded binder system, separate the things from the other things and give every single thing a clear label.
Strangely, even though my relationship with the net is as tangled as a Guinness Book of World Records-acknowledged game of Twister, I relax into that mass of sweaty limbs and bad breath and laugh as if I’m having the best of times. It feels like home to meet the eyes of a bright screen, to press ‘refresh’ and ‘see comments’ and ‘back’ and ‘forward’ and back and forward and back and forward until oscillating URL’s rocking me to sleep.
Okay, so I’m avoiding the real reason for this rant, and being a bit of a wanker, sorry. The whole purpose of this is to explain an embarrassing truth to a particular woman. A woman who I will not name, but who needs to hear the following. Once I allude to the details, she’ll know this is addressed to her. I apologise to everyone else who has to suffer through this (that is, if anyone is nice enough to share it anywhere at all), but there’s no other way I can think to get it to her.
From here on out, I’m going to call her ‘you’, purely so my mind doesn’t run off track.
Hey you.
(Continued in file - sorry, too big)
>>16797957
Do not bother to answer this. It's bait.
The guy claims to be writing drunk, but this is word-for-word identical to a post he put up yesterday. He obviously pre-wrote it and is pasting it in until he gets a response he wants.
>>16798015
Hey, I said in the title it was night two. I just reposted it, that's all. And yes, I was hoping it might find her if it was shared. But it was written last night, and the title says it was night two. Sorry, i'm new to 4chan..i assumed that was obvious.

How to improve my small talk skills?
>>16797930
two things, one of them is really obvious
Practice
Be genuinely interested in the people you are chatting with
>>16797930
two ways
>listen in on conversations to get a better understanding of how they flow
>talk to people and implement what you learned from above.
if you are super autistic, record your conversations, play them back, and see what you did wrong. keep in mind chemistry. some people just dont want to be talked to nno matter how kawaii you are.
get off the internet and away from people who spend all day posting trump memes littered with outdated black people slang
I feel like suicide is inevitable for me. My life will never improve, and actually keeps finding ways to keep getting shittier. I'm a kv and I have only 1 friend who I don't see very often. I've always been an outsider, the person people don't care about. I'll never been valued by anyone, or #1 in anyone's book. I'm doomed to live a lonely, miserable life, and there's nothing I can do to change it.
I guess I don't really need advice, but it just hurts so much to lead such a useless, lonely existence. I'm so sad that I don't get to be like everyone else, and I don't understand why life is so cruel.
>>16797903
the core concept of existentialism is that the universe has no inherent meaning. We are organisms with the opportunity to make choices. its the choices we make that give our lives meaning, if we choose to declare any.
the moment we start claiming we have no choices, our lives lose meaning. we cease being humans or even organisms, but simply become tools that a hostile universe uses to carry out its will.
the truth is the universe isn't hostile. it is indifferent. if the universe actually had it out for you it would have made you one of those chinese child slaves that simply can't commit suicide because of nets outside the window. forcing them to work their entire lives, suffering.
the universe is in fact indifferent to you, which means that you have the ability to change, shape, and improve your life. of course nothing good comes without some sacrifice, otherwise we would just have it.
now, what is more likely
>you, not having put in enough effort to carve out a good life for yourself
OR
>some magical force of the universe made you blessed enough to be born in a first world country where you have the luxury of whining on a Hungarian cartoon pictograph forum, but ultimately needs you to commit suicide after years of being mildly depressed in order to activate its endgame.
do you really think you are so insignificant that the universe wants you out of the way ASAP, but somehow so important that it made you live to begin with? what god, what force, what universe would create you wiht the soul intention of giving you first world problems worthy of suicide?
you ARE like everyone else. life has not been particularly cruel. it has actually been more kind then it has for most of the world population. the big moments are going to hit you no matter what. but its what you do afterward that define who you are.

How old are you?
Why does 1 person hating me who I really don't care about hurt me more than 10 people liking me?
>>16797898
we focus a lot on pain, but not regular touch.
10 people liking you isn't like a tickle. its like your foot touching the ground or your head on your desk. just a normal every day sensation.
whereas someone saying they hate you is like stubbing your toe.
>>16797898
Cause you obviously do care about that person or what it thinks. Otherwise you wouldnt be hurt, eh ?
>>16797904
Embrace the pain, feel your power, grow by the hate

Hey, /adv/.
I'm confused as fuck right now. I'm worried, I'm confused, pretty intimidated, and most of all, I'm constantly disappointed in myself.
I've worked out since my senior year in high school. (I've worked out in eighth grade for a 6 weeks, sophomore year for a semester, but that shit don't count). I've been working out for about a year and a half straight, plus some change. I hit my peak a few weeks before graduating, and now I'm just going down. I'm weaker, my diet has never been great, so I'm small, and a manlet. I hate the idea that people think I'm some new-years resolutioner. It's so demoralizing. Do you guys give any shits about small guys in your gym? How did you guys deal with just starting? I feel like I've not made any progress, it's like I'm constantly new, but what do you guys think?
>>16797844
i think you worry too much. most people mind their own business, and most are like you: too self conscious to actually judge others.
the few that like to judge tend to judge the fattest ones there, mostly old guys who your like 'why are you even trying? just lose weight' etc.
today i saw a guy walking around, wearing brown pants, not sure what he was doing, tryna figure out why only half the machines have handles to pull on. he looked embarassed. he looked shy. it was endearing. probably wouldnt be if he was a megafat but he was just a confused guy at a new gym walking around tryna figure stuff out
>>16797859
I only ask because this massive dude kept looking at me and my gym bro and chuckling. It made me feel bad about my progress.
>>16797871
yeah hes a dick, but what would you rather do, give up, thus proving someone like him right, or just keep going and have some gropeable pecs?
you gotta remember these are passing moments. a thousand little things are going to go wrong in your life. even when fit the entire world will judge you one way or another.
so just do what you actually want and stick it out.
dont get me wrong going to the gym was an extremely anxiety inducing experience, but liek most moments, its like getting a shot from the doctor. you know its no big deal, its just pain for a single moment of time. then as soon as it starts, its over. you wont even remember this guy in two weeks.

I will be very brief. After a lot of reading, I have come to the conclussion that even though love exists, sexual faithfulness is a myth.
I always wanted to get married, now I realize that dying alone doesn't sound too bad if it's inevitable that I will be cheated on.
How does one cope with that kind of knowledge?
Except it's not true. Sure, a lot of people so cheat, but the most accurate data we have points to somewhere around 20% of people are unfaithful. That's the minority. And it's pretty easy to pick up on who's a good partner if you're smart.
Would you ever cheat? I'm assuming you know you have the self-control and moral fortitude to confidently say no. What makes you so special then? Have faith that there are others like you, because there are.
>>16797848
>Sure, a lot of people so cheat, but the most accurate data we have points to somewhere around 20% of people are unfaithful.
Source? Not being a dick, on the contrary, I desperately want you to be right. According to my research it's 40-60%.
>>16797831
>now i realize that dying alone isnt so bad
>how to cope
sounds like you already coped. that being said is being cheated on really that bad? i dont really see the big deal. i mean yeah, its something you'd leave them over, but is it any worse than any other break up?
especially if it was purely sexual. its just a series of hormones and shit that made htem think 'I HAVE TO HAVE SEX NOW'. a lack of control. an influx of strange chemicals in the body.
sure, dump them and move on, but how is this any worse than them just not being in love with you or the countless arguments and attempts to actually hurt each other?>
So the other day I went to Wal-mart with my girlfriend, and we went about business as usual, but all of a sudden I got spooked. There were a lot of people down an aisle we went, and I just froze up, got super tense, and could actually feel myself beginning to panic. I felt like I was a massive inconvenience being in peoples' way, and that I was taking up too much space. No one said anything or gave me a dirty look, nothing. It didn't go away until we left. I don't have a history of social anxiety or anything like that, and I've been anxious in general and kind of depressed for a while now but haven't scraped together the will or the funds to start seeing a therapist. Is this just some new manifestation of what's clearly like, mental illness? Should I just stop freaking out about it?
There was an alien nearby throwing out a psychic deflector net.

It's a kind of one-off claustrophobia, a sense of being trapped. It is most likely not real claustrophobia, but a product of some other anxiety or pressure.
I know someone who is totally sane, He has a very intense job, and when he's under real pressure at work, he has moments like yours somewhere else.
In a way it's healthy, and a bit like dreaming. Dreams are a safe way for your brain to get rid of its crap. An attack like this gets all the anxiety out of your system in one big go, and in a relatively safe place.
Bf and I were talking possible children. I am not against one kid, maybe two, but no more than that. I also do not want to quit working because of them. I don't care for a career but I still like my job and all the money it brings me, and I absolutely refuse to give it up for anything. I'm the child of a working mother myself.
However, he wants me to stay home instead. We've fought over this. I've thrown it in his face if he attempts to force me to quit my job I will dump him because I want to be with someone who loves me and respects me, and if he tries not to let me keep doing something very important to me, then he does not love me and respect me. Everything he's said about love, etc. was a lie to deceive me and he deserves the worst of deaths.
So he's begrudginly accepted this, but I've heard in the news about too many men who were seemingly okay and then suddenly snapped and killed their partner brutally. Even moving out didn't help as they stalked their partners and then brutally murdered them at first opportunity. What signs should I look out for so I can respond timely to a possible attack?

I can't get ahead in life at all. Things always look up then suddenly crash down. Here's the situation I'm dealing with right now.
>got my first full time job and at it for a year now
>looking at buying myself a condo because fuck renting
>also looking into a technical school so I can move up from my low teens and hour job
>turned out some manager made a complaint about me to HR and they spent a week working on getting me fired
>they threw down the write up saying I'd be suspended pending termination because manager said he saw my phone a week ago
>was allowed quit on my own will to avoid a termination on my record
>offer on the condo was accepted today and the seller's told me they specifically liked me
>supposed to sign and seal the deal tomorrow
This is so unfucking believable. I'm semi confident I can find another full time job quickly, but my mortgage lender will most likely find out I quit my job yesterday and my deal will completely fall through. Going to be stuck as a min wage slave again, continuing to rent and throw away my money. I'm mostly just fuming but any advice would be appreciated.
>>16797778
maybe if you didnt use your phone at work you wouldnt get fired.
See, you cannot blame anyone else then yourself.
Yeah it's unlucky that they saw you, but you still broke the rules.

These need to be done, other stuff can wait.

Thanks, anon!
Though,-
My experience is almost nothing (a few months at a shop as a temp help.)
Ideally want to do a cleaning service job (cleaning houses/offices, etc) but like said, I'll shoot out my resume anywhere I may qualify. is a cover letter even worth it, though? I would say I can write well in essay context.
>>16797773
im not going to pretend like you'll take any advice on the other 'issues' you have, but as far as acne goes, i managed to manage mine.
>tretinoin in the morning
>salicylic acne wash in the shower
>erythromicin at night
>moisturizer as needed (especially after a shower)
tretinoin is a prescription cream you can rub on your face, it peels the skin fast, basically killing acne.
salicylic acne wash is pretty generic, geti t at rite aid or most any store that sells soap. it dries out the face hella hard, getting rid of any oils that cause acne.
moisturizer should be something without a scent. i use aveeno naturals with sunblock.
erythromicin is prescription anti biotics you rub directly on your face. do it at night. kilsl the bacteria that cuases acne.
pic related is me. acne comes and goes but they are more manageable and i can still get laid, etc.
i recently switched over to accutane and its great so far. after 5 months of use i may never get acne again. wish me luck
