I can't tell the difference between reality and /po/ rhetoric anymore. I fall in and out of segments where I fully believe in white genocide, the jews, etc. What do I do?
You get trolled to easily. Stop browsing /pol/.
first, stop going to /pol/
second, try to read a mainstream newspaper like the new york times or washington post every day if you can (just browse the headlines if you don't have time) so you can keep up to date on world affairs.
third you need to understand that conspiracy theories are not real, the world is not controlled by a shadow government or DA JUZE or anything like that. There are elites with a lot of money and therefore influence which they use to acquire more wealth and influence because that's human nature.

>try to read a mainstream newspaper
Just go to /news/, you don't have to read the comments but it's probably less biased.
Also, you don't know if there's a shadow government, anon, that's the point of a shadow government; you don't need to be completely absorbed in theories but keep an open mind.
As I enter my early 20's, I am beginning to show identifiable signs of some rather mischevious mental disorders.
Borderline personality disorder and bipolar type-I.
I am concerned that I will never have a stable social life.
Can someone give me hope? Is there a chance for someone like me to become stable enough to offer fulfilling interaction with others?
I will try my damndest to get on the proper meds and get appropriate therapy, but in the mean time, my self-esteem is eating shit for fear of me never being able to normally connect with another human being due to emotional instability.

have you self diagnosed these conditions or has a trained mental health professional done so?
Because if its the former I think you should find a psychologist and discuss your concerns with him before jumping to conclusions. Both of those conditions are curable by the way, but it will take a great deal of effort on your part.
A number of years ago I was diagnosed with severe depression and was able to cure it through a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy and medication. It was very hard and...

I want more opinions.
I see and hear stories about lots of women coming out as bisexual. About how they're getting stuff off their chest and being out has changed their life and shit.
I have felt an attraction to boys and girls since I was a little girl.
I already know my family is against gay people. And we're already not that close anyways...
Only a few friends and my boyfriend know I like girls too. As well as the previous women I have hooked up with.
It's a feeling that I don't know what to do with. I don't say that I'm bi openly because...

Being bisexual is a meme for girls. No one will take your sexuality seriously because it's been abused too often
>>17173181
>only a few friends and my boyfriend know
>as well as the previous hook-ups
You already came out you doofus. Shit like your sexuality shouldn't entail your identity. It isn't something that needs to be advertised on fb and instagram.
It is peronal, intimate, uncomfortable and bland. If the people you care about know than thats enough.
>>17173194
Exactly. Which is why I also feel like it'd be impossible to even date and love a woman even though I am attracted to them.
>>17173201
The biggest issue I face is that a lot of people assume I am anti-gay rights. Generally acquaintances or friends that do not know my sexuality. Usually it is because I get physically uncomfortable/awkward when people talk about LGBT stuff. And I don't know why I come off this way, but I have very often been accused by my liberal nazi tumblrina acquaintances because I am not shouting from the rooftops that I think women are hot. And it puts me in the uncomfortable situation of wondering if I need to be more public about it.
It's hard for me to even talk to pretty girls. I can't give a girl a compliment without wondering to myself if I meant it sexually or wondering if she thinks I am a strange pervert. Which is hard as a female because females are so physically intimate with each other, even as friends. And I act so fucking rigid and prude because I am afraid it will expose me.
Basically, I'm just about to consciously hurt/cuck myself and I know its wrong but I can't walk away from it

yeah just cancel no point in putting ur self thru misery mate.
unless u really want that closure.
>>17173174
I do, but I'd much rather her not bringing someone with. I think this all fell apart roughly around the time I met the person she's taking. I know this is easily the worst fucking thing I could do to myself but shit man I actually did really enjoy talking to her even when it fell apart, like she was genuinely cool at a time where I've lost so many friends
How in the FUCK can I land an administrative/office assistant job? Can you lend my pointers/your experiences?
I've ONLY had retail experience, which is why I think a lot of employers are looking over me. I'm looking for a job that will get me out of my parent's house.
I'm 21 and I'm desperately seeking to get a job that will send me into my first taste of independence.
>>17173114
Take your resume, and in your retail expereince, add anything you've done in which you can apply to admin assisting/office.
Then just apply to them, call em up, and lie a little (believable lie that you can back up) and keep doing it until you get an interview.
can you temp?
>>17173197
I'm literally willing to do anything so I have a better looking resume. My ultimate goal is to get a CalState job.

She cares about you, it seems. Do you care about her?
Also, you lucky bastard, she actually cares about you.
I don't see a problem u find her attractive and she has a good personality.
r u interested in more attractive women? Is that it?
I'm thinking of moving to Utah to find a Mormon qt to marry. I think the Mormons are actually pretty based in general. I need somebody to be the voice of reason and list some pros and cons for going from agnostic to Mormon, and adopting that lifestyle. Oh, almost forgot to mention: training to be a plumber or electrician, or something to that effect. Is the construction job market good there?
Not op but I saw a Mormon choir over Christmas and was inspired by it.
Ok firstly one of my good friends is a mormon, they accept me into their house and really don't care at all what religion I am so long as I'm nice to them. I'd say just moving to utah is good enough to get a mormon qt I'm sure construction is good there as it is a growing tourist state.
>>17173110
OP here.
I thought Mormons made you convert?
I'd be open to the idea, the only reason I'm agnostic is because I believe in a higher power, but I don't agree with any of the religions I know enough about to form an educated opinion.
Okay so today I looked at my back because I felt a tick on me,so then I went to my bathroom and found not just a tick bit horizontal scratches on my back.They're not stretch marks.
Go see a doctor. Ticks carry disease.
You probably scratched yourself earlier and forgot. The tick you felt was something rubbing against the skin and made you check it out.
See a doctor immediately. Ticks carry more diseases than Lyme. One of them causes your muscles to eat themselves. This isn't something you ask advice about online, see an IRL doctor.

Hello /adv/,
I've been getting red cheeks lately after I get out of the shower, sometimes for a quite a while after. Having a cooler shower seems to somewhat help, but in the mornings sometimes this is an unsatisfactory process.
Should I start moisturizing? I've never done it before. I'm 22 years old and male and from Australia, does anyone want to give me the low down on moisturizing? How will it help? What brand should I buy? How often? What do I moisturizer? etc.
Much appreciated.
(Pic unrelated, anyone know any good piano only...

Sounds like possible rosacea but I am NOT a doctor. Go to dermatologist and get it checked. In the mean time use a moisturizer in the morning and at night. It should help with blotchiness.
I like Ludovico Einaudi
Anyways does the redness persist throughout the day or just after you get out of the shower?
Also does your skin feel dry/tight? Do you wash your face with any kind of soap, and how often do you shower?
Where the fuck can I go to print things off if I don't have a printer? I need to print off some resumes by like 8:30 AM tomorrow, and I don't own a printer because they're too expensive. It's a vicious cycle.
I hate to say it but you could hand write your resume. Depending on the position this may go over like a lead balloon or not.

My problem is that recently I've been having some weird pain on the left side of my chest, this usually happens at night on days when I eat like a retard.
Just an hour ago I had the strangest pain, felt like someone was squeezing my heart.
Question is, should I go see a doctor?
>>17172997
You should see a doctor. That's what they're there for.
>>17172997
>this usually happens at night on days when I eat like a retard.
Might just be heartburn

2bh, I would kill things just to get to your level of life.
I'm a guy who just pushes carts in and out all day, handling people's groceries, and I have to plaster a fake smile all day. It's killing my soul and what little dignity I have left.
It seems like I'm the smartest or most ambitious member of every group I'm part of. Every time I relax and let someone else direct, our work turns out mediocre. How the can a group work effectively if only one person is competent or only one person seems to care? I'm fed the fuck up with always being the one that keeps shit together.
simple, you kill the batman.
no but seriously the person leading the group needs to have enough of a vested interest in the successful outcome of a project to make them give a shit.
I've never done any work in group projects.
So without going into too much detail, I have a very specific, very unique sexual fetish. Because of this, it's basically impossible to carry out in real life, leaving me dependent on roleplays and cybersex. However because it's so unique, there's no easily found community or fellow enthusiasts to carry out this RP with.
Is there a good way to go about finding a partner for something so unique? I've tried posting on /soc/ but never receive any interested responses. I've considered offering to type someone through paypal, but I'm worried that'll...

whats ur feddish?
>>17172990
I'd prefer not to derail the thread by going into detail about that.
Trust me that it's not the interesting kind of weird, just exceptionally unique.
Is this fetish the only thing that gets you off?
