So I have hepatitis C and I've been mostly symptom free until recently. Recently I've had a pain in my side where my liver is and have felt really tired (like really, really tired) and foggy headed as fuck.
Beyond the hep C my liver is pretty shit. I have fatty liver disease and heightened enzymes. Years of chronic drug and alcohol abuse have taken its toll.
Anyway, now I'm a bit freaked out. I'm not really religious, so I realize that after I die i'll either burn in hell for being a heretic or the picture will just cut to "black" for all eternity. I don't expect to experience peace, because I won't be here to experience anything, because there won't be a "me".
This maybe dying thing is really fucking with my head. I always thought I'd be ready to die, and secretly wished I'd get butt cancer or something, but now I'm just fucking scared.
And even if it's not my liver that kills me, something else will. And that'll be it. The unforgiving emptiness after I die scares the shit out of me. There's no control.
pic related, was me before, like i was a badass and not scared of death, then i got scared
I don't know why I expected any useful advice, /adv/ is full of sissy ass betas and cucks who have never had a hint of adversity in their lives.
Here's a picture of a cat.

This is actually my first time visiting this board in my years on 4chan, I'm usually on /b/ or /x/, and from that experience I think if you take this question over to /x/ u might get more of a response, not for sure, but maybe....also I'd like to let u know ur stronger than u think and try ur best to accept and make peace with ur situation....I feel kinda like I'm probably saying stuff that you've already heard, but anyways keep ur head up bro and just handle everything one day at a time.
Let's say you were dying.
The way in which you described your symptoms means that most likely you would die from organ failure.
Generally when this happens the body releases an outrageous amount of dopamine. Those who have died and come back describe it as the most amazing experience theyve ever felt, making them feel at peace with not a care in the world.
So if you really are going to die, just know that your body won't let you realize it. So you will die peacefully.
Also go to a doctor...
My crackhead parents are disowning me and are kicking me out at the end of January. Never had a job, dropped out of school, no skills, and no friends/contacts to help me out. No car, but about $20k in the bank from when my grandpa died. Living on the streets is not an option.
What's the best way to start my new life?
Good luck buddy
>>16623494
Doing crack. Maybe you can become a dealer and sell to your parents. Like father like son. A family that hits the rock together stays together!
>>16623494
I live in los angeles off of 1300 a month.
thats 15600 a year.
considering moving costs (furniture and deposits and such) you should have no problem finding a place and living for a year if its not somewhere stupid like new york.
with that in mind, start applying for jobs IMMEDIATELY. you dont have to figure out your life so fast, but having cash coming into help pay the bills while you figure out your next step is ideal.
go to craigslist and apply for each and every entry level job you can, even if it sucks. then go around town (a mall if you have it) and look at every single store and see who is hiring. inquire within. a lot of the time they might say 'no, were not hiring, but i hear the guy across the street is'
call centers and retail have the highest turn over, which means they are the easiest to get a job in.
even ask random people you strike up conversations with. go on facebook and talk to each person individually about who is hiring. doesnt matter if ur not friends anymore or dont really know em well. strike up a convo and ask. same goes for everyone on your phone.
DO IT. someone will say 'oh hey i heard this place is hiring' or even give you a recommendation
So how does one make new friends when your only obvious option (college) is terrible since there are only weeaboos (I study japanese)? Which are my other options? I am not shy nor introverted.
>>16623484
Go to the bar and hit up a conversation with someone.
>>16623484
what are your interests?
>>16623484
>studying Japanese
>hates weeaboos
Wew lad.
>be 15 (long time ago)
>spend year at French boarding school
>be outsider on account of being foreigner and of being quite uptight and square
>be especially at odds with one very "bohemian" kid (pic related)
>he's very anti-authoritarian, openly bisexual, and the school's resident pot dealer
>snitch on him
>he just barely avoids expulsion
>finds out I snitched on him
>he and a group of his friends come into my room a few days later and overpower me
>his friends tie my hands and feet together, then exit the room and leave me alone with him
>he slaps me once or twice, then pulls down my pants and underpants
>then opens his belt saying "I'm going to be your man ('ton mec') now, p'tit con"
>he spits into his hand, smears it on his dick
>try to get up in panic, but he pushes my legs back onto the bed, and turns me back onto my side
>plead with him not to do it as he lies down behind me
>he puts a hand over my mouth and fucks me in the ass
>"Oui...c'est bon, ton cul"
>wonder if the others know what he's doing to me
>hear them snickering behind the door
>get hard, he notices
>"You like it. Slut ('salope')."
>finally takes his hand off my mouth and asks if he should cum in my ass or on my face
>just reply "Non!"
>puts his hand back on my mouth
>"Alors, le cul"
>picks up the pace, moans loudly, then sighs
>gets up and wipes his dick with a tissue, which he drops on the bed
>slaps my ass, calls me "putain", and leaves smiling
>the others holler when he comes out, and one asks him if I was good (can't make out his answer)
>they come in and untie my hands, now asking me if he's fucked me well
>tell them to go to hell
I've now come across him on FB, and am wondering if I should somehow confront him about it. Or should I just leave it be, as we were both very young, and I kind of "had it coming" (not that rape is ever justified, but you know what I mean).
>>/hm/
THINGS THAT TOTALLY HAPPENED
>>16623475
>>16623475
>i had it coming
sorry, sure it was a dick move, especially with what we know of pot today, btu the point remains that this guy knowingly did somethign illegal for his own benefit. you did not. you turned him in. he responded by raping you.
frankly im surprised you didnt pick up the tissue and go right to the fucking cops. all you did was prove that he deserved it imo.
Thoughts on getting a CPA? I'm an Econ student at a top 20 university with not-so-stellar grades (3.2GPA). I like accounting and finance and I'd like a longer term career goal to be a Financial Planner and Analyst. Is a CPA a good way to start? Am I too late/early to start it?
>>16623462
yes.
I need a shit ton of weed before saturday, and my dealer got arrested last week. Any suggestions?
Try a mail order service - a couple do actually work. But some don't so ask around for reviews and proceed with caution
>>16623421
>Smoking weed
Degenerate.
Hang out where your dealer hung out, if you are lucky, your dealer's dealer may seek you out.
How can I get sexual with a girl?
I dont know pic is related or not.
Be charismatic
>>16623401
Get her on a couch, watching a lighted screen of some sort.
Snuggle.
If she likes it, use hands on her somewhere, such as stroking or massaging.
>>16623422
I was talking about how I can get into that stage, but thanks for the advice anyway.
I'm currently NEET and living with my parents, literally in their basement. I'm also stupid depressed, and in order to stave off suicide, I like to smoke weed.
My parents started really getting on my case about getting a job and moving out, but they caught me smoking once and they flipped out (understandably) and said I needed to get a job and move out asap.
I applied at a factory, which is the only place that I know off that I can work nearby that will pay me enough to afford rent and will actually hire me. I made sure that I hadn't smoked in two weeks before I went in for the drug test, and I made sure to be drinking a decent amount beforehand. I was pretty confident I was going to pass. I even got to do a day of orientation, so I figured I had passed. I went back to smoking, feeling safe in the assumption I was fine.
I just now got an email that my urine sample came back as "diluted" and I'd need to take the test again, asap. I guess I was drinking too much water.
I have no clue what the fuck to do now. If I take the test anytime soon (i.e. within two weeks), there's no way I'll pass. Do I try to postpone the test for that long?
Why would you start smoking again after the test? You know that if you got the job you'd probably be randomly tested anyway, right? Take this as an opportunity to quit
>>16623386
In my state, employers can only test after an accident or if they have reasonable suspicion. If they want to randomly test, they have to test like all their employees at the same time (to avoid ~discrimination~). So as long as I avoid accidents and didn't reek of pot when I arrive, I'd have been fine.
Also, not sure if I made it clear, but getting stoned makes me not consider suicide, so, uh... it's nice.
I love you. Is ok.
How do you leave someone whose life is completely intertwined with yours?
>>16623374
Kill yourself.

Suck their dick
Hi /adv/, unforseen circumstances forced me to move from GA to FL immediately. I need to find a job, but I've only been living here for a day. I have my GA ID and License, Birth Certificate, and SSN. Do I need anything else to get a job? Even if it's minimum wage? I don't have proof of residency since I literally just moved here, will that be an issue? I have to pay rent and utilities in less than a month, what do I do?
>>16623351
Apply for a job.
>>16623366
Not just a job. Apply for all the jobs.
What should I do if I get into this situation?
Right now I'm applying for a bunch of jobs, ranging from really good jobs to "kinda bad, but I know I'll get accepted"-jobs. Let's say I get hired at the bad job and then all of a sudden the good job finally answers my applications and I get accepted to work at the good job while employed at the bad one?
Is it bad to just leave a job like that because a better opportunity came along? I don't want that following me around like "Anon just randomly quit the job when we needed him!" if future employers look up my job history. That could be really damning toward my future prospects.
>>16623330
If the good job has a significantly higher pay, then I would leave the bad job. Pay would have to be over $5 more.
>>16623338
*$5/hr
It's crappy, but you still have to do it. If it's some entry-level retail or food service job, it's very unlikely to follow you, especially if you're diving straight into another job. Apologize profusely, realize they might not accept your apology, and then never look back.
I have a flight in 6 hours and I'm growing scared by the minute, how do you deal with it /adv/?
>>16623313
Chew gum while they lift off.
>better chance of being struck by lightning then plane crashing
>you could just drink a lot before the flight
>take a lot of sleeping pills and knock the fuck out
>use music to de-stress yourself on flight
>bring a stressball to squeeze on
>keep yourself occupied with books, movies, music
>>16623318
I will try to do so
>>16623337
I know that from a statistical viewpoint worrying is dumb as fuck, but with all the stuff that you hear lately and coupled with the fact that tomorrow is new year's eve, I can't help it. And it's not even the first time that I take a plane dammit.
how the FUCK do I stop having nostalgia over periods that weren't that good?
case in point, in summer 2014 I was doing an internship that was TOTAL SHIT and I recal hating it.
Yet when I think back about this period there is part of me thinking that it was nice because I was in a nice city and it was summer, so my feeling is to feel like it wasnt' that bad. Yet I know I felt like shit when I was experiencing it
why such a disconnect? how can I fix this?
Our minds lie to us. I suffer from severe depression, there have been many times where I am talking to someone close about missing a certain point in my life and they recall to me that I was actually still depressed at that time.
If you have an already existing mental disorder take that into consideration. Our minds are extremely complicated and I would say most of the problems humanity faces are caused by lack of self-awareness and of the sub-conscious.
As I am approaching 25 now and my frontal cortex is almost fully developed it is becoming much easier for my autistic beta-ass to rationalize with myself.
Alright guys, I need some advice.
Last week I invested 100€ in a online casino. I made it up to 1.800€ with blackjack and roulette but I couldnt stop so I lost it all again.
After that, I invested 100€ again, made it up to 1.200€. I wanted my 1.800€ back and lost it all again.
Now im broke.
What to do with my life?
Should I kill myself?
>invested 100€
>invested 100€ again
that's not what invested means. you spent
>What to do with my life?
professional gambler
>Should I kill myself?
probably

So yesterday I rubbed some ginger oil in jojoba oil on my head to ease a headache, but got some in my eye. I just sat for an hour watching TV and closed the eye it got in, because thats happened before when I accidentally got oil in my eye, before realizing that when I opened my eye and it looked like I had a smudge on my glasses, it was actually my eye that was fucked up.
I then rinsed with water, but the eye was burning a lot after that and vision was blurry. It was painful to blink. so I kept eyes closed, and nose got runny on that side of my face.
I slept a lot and now there is no more pain, just irritation in my right eye, but my vision is still weird:
Wearing my glasses, if I leave only the right eye open, my vision is blurry. If I do the same thing and take glasses off, it looks like my right eye vision has actually improved and I see as if I was normally wearing glasses, but gets slightly blurry if I focus on an object.
So what I want to ask is will my vision go back to normal soon, is my eye just a little inflamed, or did I permanently damage it? I will have ot wait until next year to go see optometrist.doctor.
Keep a cold compress (of just cold water on a cotton ball) on whenever you can. Likely it will heal, the damage caused by such oils isn't too bad, and the eye has a great healing capacity. Keep it not only closed, but blocking all light from it (so it won't burn any further), get some bandaging. See a doctor if after 3 days it's still bad, but it likely won't be. Just stop trying to see through this eye, avoid stressing it.
>>16623319
Would have helped yesterday, I'm passed that phase now, since there's no more pain or redness. Just a minor irritation and slightly disturbed vision. Just seeking reassurance it will completely heal.
>>16623354
It will, but even if your eye doesn't hurt anymore, you should still let it rest for a day or two. Get yourself an eyepatch and wish everyone a happy new YARRRR.
