What reasons could a doctor have? On paper he only lists anxiety but he's suggested I may have BPD but that was once and whenever I ask he goes on about anxiety or mild depression.
However I just heard from family that they've been told I'm bipolar and dissociative and that the evolution is pretty bad.
I don't know what to believe anymore, I'm being treated like a fool and it's pissing me off. Why would he tell me otherwise, why would he tell me every ime that I look better and seem calmer with a smirk on his face and that 'no, no you're gonna be fine'. Same old, same old
Are all psychiatrists like this?
They, like every people try to avoid confrontation. They do what's on their payroll with as minimal confrontation as possible.
Also:
>the evolution is pretty bad
You don't tell mentally unstable patients this because it makes them worse.
>>17188396
But blatantly lying to their face that they look so much better every time even when the patient says hell no, I feel worse is just absurd and annoying.
>not telling mentally unstable
Is it only in the case of mood disorders cause I've seen schizos knowing their condition, and that it's bad, without it making things worse
>>17188390
>Are all psychiatrists like this?
Basically. It's a losing system.
Why do people on this board normally only reply to advice that involves relationship trouble? and on the rare occasions that people do reply to advice not relating to relationships, they normally call op an autist.

bump
what advice are you looking for?
Because a major part of life is relationships. Everybody is looking for love and people love to give relationship advice, also it gives hem an opportunity to tell their little stories as examples so they can vent about their relationship struggles. In short everybody wants to be loved.
>Be me
>talk backnforth with a qt3.14
>she keeps and even starts talking to me
>sends some flirtyish pictures
>we were at a party,and her best gf started roasting me infront of m8s about not asking her out. Later on i asked best gf for some info
>turns out she likes me
>finally have the guts to ask her
>she says "its not a no,but not a yes atm"
and even explains that she had no past relationships
What to do guise?

Buy some coke, go to a bar, take coke, become an over confident normalfag for the night that only talks about himself, have great sex on coke and then either hate yourself for a week or do it again.
If I decided to post in only one board for the rest of the year which one should it be?
>>17188289
/r9k/.
>>17188291
Why's that? I'm not an emofag.
>>17188289
Whichever board talks about the thing that interests you the most. Got any hobbies?
Been talking to her for awhile and we just hit it off and we're finally meeting up , would taking roses be a bit much ?
Yeah, you want to keep things casual. Roses would be weird.
im not sure. i have been arranging a date with a girl for a couple of weeks now. i dont really know her so i doubt i will lay it on so thick.
wine is romantic and consumable, and not soppy. wine...

Hello /adv/
Let's build a library of solutions to common problematic situations that one could use to simplify his life.
You can post your scenario, and of course, answer to others.
I'll begin :
-Somebody asks you for help, but you don't want to, and it is obvious that you have time and can easily do it (you don't want to help because you simply dislike the guy, who doesn't know it), what is your answer?
>wanting to make a catalog of social situations
Do you know how I know you're autistic?
>>17188225
Why'd you post a picture of yourself?
Everyone who has a LDR, Online friends, family abroad etc etc
I'd like you list and experiences with multiplayer games I can play with a friend. It can be mobile or PC, but we have to be able to at least play together, of not directly then at least among other people.
Too many mobile games are for playing against strangers, and PC games are huge titles that require decent hardware besides all the io games
Pls help
>>17188158
Try this game

Very fun top down shooter that's very coop focused. You have to work together to accomplish missions all while being swarmed by wave after wave of enemies. Also friendly fire is on like 150%, you will kill your allies, you will get killed by your own gadgets, etc.
It's good fun, 2-4 players.
Vainglory agar.io, league of legends
All free, all can be played with another person.
diablo 2 works on everything and its great

>>17188106
She has atrial fibrillation? Is she not on meds for it, because most people with that condition control it with meds. Since I don't know the specifics of her case I can't really answer your question but it's unlikely she would be very limited. Ask her and her family though.
There are a million types of arrythmias, some are not dangerous and require more intensive treatment, some are less.
>>17188106
>So my question is can she play sports the same and can i scare her or prank her stuff like that
It depends on the type of arrhythmia. Can you tell us what type she has?
What I'm thinking is
>drag her by her hair onto bed
>slap her and pinch her cheeks saying something along the lines of
>"Shut the fuck up. You don't get to talk from here on in"
>Firmly run hand down body
>"Let's see what you have here"
>She makes noise
>Grab her by her bra and pants
>Lift her
>Drop her
>Put hand over her mouth and nose
>"I thought I told you to shut the fuck up"
>One palm on neck, other palm firmly working its way up her thigh
That's all I have so far. Where do I go from here?
Just ask her. Your pretty pathetic to begin with.
>>17188050
Are you that guy that got his TV stolen by a woman that said if you touched her it would be rape?

Did you save the pic of that persons cat?
My four years with my boyfriend is today. He didn't plan anything and told me that we should "at least get dinner or watch a movie since it feels bad to not do anything". Neither of those things on its own seems like a very "4 years dating anniversary" thing to do. I planned our 3 years together and I'm kind of bummed he has nothing planned. I understand that we both don't have a lot of money right now as students but it's still....disappointing?
I almost don't want to see him today because it feels like I'd rather not see him at all than be upset over something I know objectively is trivial.
Thoughts? Or even ideas?
You're at the point in your relationship where you shouldn't have to do anything fancy to justify it.
Getting upset means you aren't secure about your relationship and need the validation of it being special, despite having dated him for 4 years already.
What do you think that would be appropriate?
>>17187958
We started dating in high school so we never got to do anything fancy and he's never had a job either to get me anything fancy. I guess I wish he were just a little bit romantic or put a little bit effort into being romantic, you know?
I have been with my gf for 7 years. We both still live with our parents in order to save money to buy a house. She is a very scatter brained person who is hardly ever organized and often drifts off into lala land. She is often late either coming to my house, showing up for school/work etc. She forgets about events until the day before or of, etc.
This past semester she was super busy with school so I barely got to see her. Maybe once on a weekday for 3 hours then sleep, and then maybe once on the weekend for 5 hours then sleep. I understood this and supported her and knew she would be busy so I never made it an issue.
However near the end of the semester her birthday came up and she also had a four day weekend. Instead of spending it with me she made plan after plan with her friends for 3 of the 4 days, each day blowing me off on that day saying "oh I didn't mean to stay that late" "i'm tired, I'll come over tomorrow" etc then the last day she sent me a text asking me to come with her to some dinner with her friends and I got really mad that she had blown me off all weekend and then decided to what seemed like to me, just tag me in at the last minute just so she could go to this dinner. Maybe I should have went, I don't know, but at the time I was just so pissed I had been blown off all of her birthday weekend that her inviting me there just seemed like she really just wanted to be with her friends. So I didn't get to see her that weekend, and it wasn't until the next weekend I was able to see her.
Then when the semester ended she had to stay home and watch her sister for two weeks, which again I understood, I just felt sad I couldn't see her then.
Well after she was done with that, now the past two weeks she's had nothing to do other than prepare for next semester, no job, not in school right now.

In 10 days I leave to start driving trucks over the road which means I'll be gone for 3 weeks at a time and back for maybe 3 days before going out again. She knows I was hoping to spend as much time together as possible before I left but she has just been flakey, telling me she will be over at 5pm, then it turns to 7pm, then she'll text she's actually not coming over, she has to "clean" or "organize" or get stuff ready for next semester and set up her internship. Today I won't be able to see her, but yesterday we were both free all day, but she decided to just stay home because she "felt tired" and needed to do stuff, which I told her could be done today when we couldn't see each other. She only responded with "it's not a big deal, we have plenty of days left" knowing it's only 10 days till I leave.
She knows what it's like to be away for awhile because for 2 years of our relationship I was in the Army. I don't understand why she's acting like this, and when I bring up the fact that she's flaking on me all the time, she says that I'm "needy." All I want is to spend time with her before I have to leave home to drive trucks for at least a year and I feel like she's just flaking on me often, and not really prioritizing seeing me, when my most important thought at this point is to spend as much time with her as I can before I leave.
Am I being too clingy or something?
Sorry for the long story, but I felt I should explain it well.
>>17187844
>She only responded with "it's not a big deal, we have plenty of days left"
I forgot to mention, after that I tried to call her, but she ignored my call (another thing she frequently does if she's upset because I'm upset), and then texted "I just don't feel like dealing with it right now, I'm tired and we can talk tomorrow"
It infuriates me that she ignores my calls when I'm angry with her about something.
Sounds like she doesn't want to be in a relationship with you, but doesn't know how to break it off with you.
Whats a good way to remember women's names when drunk? Even after repeating it 10 times, I only remember for like a minute. 7+ shots of different drinks normally.
Try associating her name and her appearance with an absurd story.
>>17187829
say her name in a descriptive sentence about her 10 times.

Good thought
I think I'm addicted to porn, /adv/. I haven't missed a single day since the age of 11. Since then, I've had issues with social anxiety, I've felt unable to connect with other people and keep relationships, I'm unable to focus on everyday menial tasks, and I've lost interests in many of my hobbies. I've just now realized that I never had these problems until I after I started regularly fapping. I've been to psychiatrists who diagnosed me with depression and ADHD and was put on drugs plenty of times, which seemed to help while I was on them, but as soon as I felt okay and stopped taking them, my symptoms started coming back. Now that I'm at the age of 21 still having not missed a day, and often even doing it multiple times a day, I feel like the symptoms I'm getting are starting to take control of the direction my life is headed. I think It's about time I reevaluate my life choices, and the main thing I want to do is stop fapping, and if not that, then greatly decreasing how often I fap.
I don't even fap to seek the pleasure anymore, I just do it because it's a thing to do. I have it so ingrained into my daily life cycle that I haven't seen it as a problem, and to be honest, I still don't know if it is or not. I just want to try everything I can to rid myself of these symptoms naturally before I go back to a shrink again and get put on meds; but another part of me is saying that fapping isn't what's causing these symptoms to begin with, and that getting put on meds and continuing fapping is the best course of action. I've tried stopping and I just can't. I don't know what to do anymore.
What is the best course of action for deciding whether or not quitting porn would be beneficial to me?
>tl;dr is nofap actually beneficial or is it just speculation
Dont quit fapping just do it less and go completely without porn.
Try fapping 3x a week or experiment with different patterns. There is a point for me where I just get so frustrated I have to Fap.
>>17187809
The without porn part I can definitely do, but I'm finding it hard to hold off for even one day, let alone more than one. I've been through physical opiate withdrawal a few years ago due to constant surgeries and I weaned myself off of it and ended up fine, is it the same process with fapping? Should I focus on decreasing to once a day for a bit, then once every other day and work my way down, or is it better to just start off with the three times a week only rule?
Step one: Delete history, and go through all your saved files, bookmarks, external storage, etc and delete everything pornographic. Assuming that you will encounter porn again at some point, enforce the resolution that you will never save any pornographic videos or images again. This alone helped a whole lot because it turns like a 3 hour porn collecting spree into 10 minutes browsing tube sites and adult content aggregators.
Step 2: Get rid of all chairs in your bedroom. get a standing desk or some other makeshift arrangement where you only go on the computer standing up. I have found that simply sitting in a chair makes my internet addiction a whole lot worse, whereas standing it is 10x easer to peel myself away and go outside or go to sleep. If you absolutely must sit on your ass at the computer like for work or school. Make sure you have a window open where people outside can see you, and you are wearing pants and underwear. Better yet bring a laptop outside, which will further reduce procrastination/cyberslacking
There were originally more steps but I went into detail and covered everything. TLDR: Delete porn, stop looking at porn, go outside.
>>17187809
fuck you, fapping is the strongest correlate with porn addiction and the easiest way to quit porn is to stop fapping and fantasizing abut sex so you have no reason to go looking at xxx
Looking at porn while still fapping: Spend hours and hours looking at porn, while edging as long as I could and cumming several times a day
Looking at porn after I quit fapping: Browse porn material a few minutes, get bored and stop
