Ever since he cheated on me, whenever I see any girl my self esteem plummets and I want to cry. How the fuck do I go back to normal
Things will probably never go completely back to the way they were before. Either you can live with that or you can't

You still together with him?

I meant my self esteem.
My parents are helping me move at the beginning of August to an apartment in another state for school. The first day I can move into the apartment is the same day as the grad student orientation, so my parents have taken it upon themselves to unpack my things and set up the new apartment while I'm doing the mandatory orientation stuff. I don't want them to do this, but I can't talk them out of it/there doesn't seem like a good reason that they shouldn't do this for me. The problem is that I have a garbage bag full of BDSM gear sitting in my closet (pic...

Put it in a box and mark it: "Leave packed" or something like that.
Otherwise, if your parents are normal adults they won't say anything about your BDSM gear if they happen to see it.
If you're very desperate, maybe you could find and rent a storage locker in the area and keep the bag in there until you're ready to go get it.
That, or buy a box or luggage trunk with a lock on it, put the bag in the box, lock it, and hold onto the key on your person.

This.
Found this on my mum's nightstand once. Had a good chuckle, but I later started to wonder if this stuff might somehow be hereditary.
How do I choose my major? I just finished my 2nd year of college and I'm still unsure about what I want to do.
Do media studies. There, I decided for you.
Choose something that will get you a job and that you can stand doing. Seriously study something that gives you marketable skills even if it's not your passion. Fuck everything about leaving school with a worthless degree

You are not wrong, she is ungrateful.
sounds really materialistic, but not in a physical material sense. spoiled? i'm not sure.
but yeah that's fucked up.
Ditch her.
What drink should a man order on a date with a girl?
Unless you can properly drink hard liquor and can hold your liquor, drink beer or something like jack and coke. Something watered down that you can sip without looking like a faggot
Nothing is more unattractive than a man who is fucked up, slurring his speech, acting like a fool.
I didn't realize drinks had genders, order whatever the fuck you want you beta
A beer, faggot.
How do I live in la as a waiter
Do your research, mate. Will you have backup funds if you can't land a job, as well as a place to stay, etc?
Are you already in L.A, or going to California to do this? It affects things greatly depending on where you're coming from.
Sorry if this is lacking, but I don't have too much info of yours to go off of.

I think you look fine. im a guy though.
Just need to work on your face gains and hair, mostly. A beard might do you good, but because I'm not /fa/, I'm not sure if changing up your questionable attire would help

You should do it just for the keks.

OK, I need a discussion on morality and ethics of a job, or the nature of "killing". I should note I am not religious so claims that "it is immoral because god says so" are not really what I am looking for
Generally speaking, I am a mechanical engineer who potentially will begin working on drones (not hobbyist drones, as in actual war drones) hypothetically it is the perfect job, I am extremely qualified for the position, it pays well, is in an area I love, and I could potentially keep this job with benefits for life.
however I am wondering...

You are creating a machine that flies and shuts. You are not the one hitting the red button.
If you don't do it, somebody else will.

Do you believe that your country should have the means to defend itself? Do you acknowledge that other countries will continue to develop more advanced weapons, and use them against your country if they get the opportunity? Do you also acknowledge that in the defense of your way of life, other lives may have to be taken, either directly or indirectly?
On a more specific level, do you believe that drone warfare is a step too far, and that no civilized countries should use it?
Once you answer these questions,...

so ive had a pretty steady supply of benzos (klonopin, xanax, ativan) for a couple years now. in the last 3 or 4 months, i would only take one once every week or two because my daily meds were working pretty well. about 3 weeks ago, ive started feeling anxiety all day almost every day with constant panic attacks. is it possible that i developed a dependency on benzos? i thought you had to take them more frequently for that to happen.
i dont think taking it once or twice every week or two could cause that.
Benzo withdrawal is the closest to hell on Earth you can come.

Nah not having Benzo is
On Monday I'm going to campus, speaking with my advisor, and switching my major.
This fall will be my fifth year, and if I didn't plan to switch, I'd be graduating with a degree in finance. Why I got into finance, or business really (started as entrepreneurship), I'm unsure. I started as a psych major, and I think I remember switching to business for a stable job.
Anyway, for the past two years now, I've been disinterested in my classes. Idk why it took me this long to finally do it, but I'm going to switch my major to English.
I've always liked reading. I've always liked writing. I've always teaching. I've finished and revised two novels in the past year, while taking business courses, and this semester I told myself I'd indulge with a Shakespeare course with one of my favorite professors, whom I've never followed up with.
But instead of just taking that one Shakespeare course, last night, as I stayed awake until 7am thinking about my future, and reading Stoner by John Williams, I realized I want to go all out. I don't want to take business courses.
I'm 21. I'm two semesters away from a finance degree, but I don't want it. Has anyone been in this situation? Am I foolish for not going for the finance degree, even as a safety net?
So you want to take more than six fucking years to graduate with an English major? Jesus
As an English major your either going to have to write a best selling book and doing freelance stuff in the meantime. Or you'll have to be an English teacher, which means you'll have to get a teaching certification which is even more time for you to waste. If your miserable with a finance degree now, you'll be pretty fucking miserable doing it for 40 hours a week, but If you've lasted this long are you sure your not depressed or something to suddenly become disinterested. If you have the money and the time for more college work then keep going and "follow...

You've been privileged to attend college and you're going to waste it on a worthless degree?
From this point on, if you ever have to depend on anyone else for financial help because of your pathetic English degree then you're a huge faggot
Should I take an SSRI?
Do they work?
It seems like there's considerable evidence that they don't. Where there's smoke, there's fire. Can you imagine subjecting yourself to a bunch of shitty side effects for no discernible benefit?
Anecdotes are fine.
>>17364256
ive not had good experiences with ssris
It does not seem that way to those of us who aren't suffering from a severe mental illness.

I'm suffering from a severe mental illness.
Okay so I just transferred to a new school in the city because everyone dropped out of the class I was going to in the suburbs.
There's about 20 people in my new class and I'm finding it hard to make friends to do the work with.
I started sitting next to three guys but they weren't too interested in sharing the equipment when I tried to join in. They're alright to talk to but when it comes to the work things are a bit different. We're all on the same level in terms of the work but since I'm coming into a new class everyone feels...

Shit man, time to go out into the world.
Alright, rev up that advice, because I'm ready to fucking kill myself.
My current job blows. I've been at it for a month. I guess I have brain problems because I'm apparently picking up things very slowly, so everybody I work with hates me. Being there makes me feel like shit and I spend a few hours every day considering suicide.
Do you still collect the last pay period if you quit your work abruptly? I don't think I can last a two week's notice. At the same time, if I don't get that, I can't afford rent for this month. How much...

push yourself through the two weeks, look for a job at the same time
fuck the resume
everyone hates me and im still here
adopt the mentality of "they are wrong i am right"
Some jobs just don't work out. It happens. If it ever comes up in a future interview, which it probably wont unless they do the old question 'why did you leave your last job?', just say it wasn't a good fit for you or something.
I'm pretty sure they legally have to pay you hours worked.
Depends on the job if it matters.
They have to pay you for any hour you work
