I used to do all kinds of bad drugs a lot(like every single day and most things besides heroin pretty much) for a few years and now i have some abnormal mental problems. It has been a year since I have touched anything besides alcohol and some weed. How long do you think until I return more to normal? i probably damaged my brain a bit but do you think there could be hope for me?
By abnormal mental problems i mean i had to spend time in the hospital for psychosis and hallucinations months after i stopped doing drugs but now i am a lot better and people just think I am...

did you use benzos?
>>17148391
Fuck. Yeah i used a lot of benzos. Xanax in particular. Benzos were the cruz of my drug problems
>>17148369
what kinds of hallucinations? not all of them are serious
I feel pissed off and stressed out right now.
It took me a few weeks to build up the courage to decide to do a overseas trip all by myself. I have a little bit of anxiety, so it took a while to actually decide to buy the tickets. Anyways, I told some co-workers about the trip and they ALL said "wait... You're going alone? Are you nuts? Go with some friends, you have to go with people! Take some friends, it will be much better"
God dammit that makes me feel like shit. Of course I'd go with friends if I could, but none of my friends want to...

You're doing good. All I want to do is travel but not by myself. And you know the drill, everyone is just so busy.
Have a blast! Your co-workers are tools.
>>17148321
I knew 2 people who travelled alone. They enjoyed it. You shouldn't second guess yourself if people put doubt in your mind.
>>17148334
>>17148337
i guess it just stirred up my anxiety that i had under control. it just causes me to think and my mind to race sometimes. it fucks me up
Have a final test in 11 hours and have studied very little to nothing.
Should I sleep tonight? I slept 14 hours last night I've been awake for 12 hours.
>>17148318
being well rested is very important for your test, also drink plenty of water and I know it's cliche but make sure you eat a good breakfast.
>>17148318
You will do better being rested than trying to cram in information. Also, about 20-30 minutes of semi-intense exercise before an exam can raise up your test score a little bit
>>17148318
wake up at 7 am like me :^)
Is it "too" abnormal for someone to feel like a little kid , sexually? It's hard to explain but this person feel they can only relate sexually to little.kids but they haven't acted upon it yet.
>>17148267
There's a difference between Feeling LIKE a little kid, and sexually relating TO little kids.
One is ageplay, the other is pedophilia.
I'm going to assume out of the goodness of my heart that you mean ageplay, which means an adult pretending to be younger in a sexual setting.
Ageplay is fairly controversial. You'll do best by introducing first general Domination/submission and seeing the reaction. The people who are already into BDSM or have an open mind about BDSM will be more...

Well I mean like I'm not attracted to people my age.
>>17148319
How young are you talking? Sexually attracted to 13-17 year olds? Sexually attracted to 2-6 year olds?
If you're just an ephebophile and like teenagers, then that's easily dealt with. There are plenty of 18-23 year olds who look and act like teenagers. Hell, sounds like you're one of them.
If you're a real pedophile, please reconsider.
How long do you give a girl before you flat out know she isn't interested anymore?
I started using Tinder a bit ago, and there was one girl who I matched with that I was particularly fond of as far as looks go. I got her number, we set up a date, and then she flaked the night of. She seemed really interested, but who knows whether her reasons for flaking were authentic. Anyways, it was radio silence the next day, but I didn't want to push anything so I didn't bother texting.
The next day, I went out with my friends to drink. I started texting her...

I give her one collage try and that's it.
You are on an App which' entire premise it playing the number game. It's literally like call-center-advertisement.
"Make the call.
Do the lines.
Make the sale
or move on!"
Am I wasting my time even using this as a dating app, or is it strictly for flings. I actually wanted to get to know this girl, but I don't know what she wants at all.
>>17148210
You probably ruined your chances - your best bet is to act distant and hope she likes a chase
I think I'm gonna kill myself. Not sure what else to do with my life

You can move to another country or city and start again. Suicide is for gays and women.
>>17148176
please leave the gays out of this, that was so 2014. suicides only for women these days.
>>17148154
literally anything?
this is how retarded your logic is
>I'm not sure what to eat tonight
>so i might as well never eat ever again
>>17148181
Or gay men who think they're women.
Either way I'm just trying to shame OP into living it's what Christ would want.
>>17148141
Depends on your country where you at?
You need to be less slutty.
>>17148167
Or more.
So i'm 19 years old and I am still having issues with acne. Most people told me that acne would just go away as you age but it's not showing any signs of stopping. I've tried some remedies but nothing seems to be working for me. It makes me self conscious about my looks but people generally say I would be very handsome without the acne
Any help /adv/?
>>17148119
See doctor
Get a prescription for Isotrentinoin/Accutane. You take it for like a year and then the results are permanent. Worked wonders for me.
Acne isnt as simple as parents made it out to be. if its only in one location its usually caused by a specific problem (for example (thisi s wrong but for example) acne on the nose would be a dairy issue). I had acne on my chin only, and thats a hormonal issue. however i cannot fix that as a dude (whereas women could just take birth control etc).
there are two approaches that worked well for me. the first is how i went from pic related to second pic related.
>tretinoin in the morning
>salicylic acne wash in...

Hey, What are some Alpha boy names for a male child.

i feel very insecure about my 5 inch dick.
how do you overcome penis size insecurity?
Sorry, you can't really please a woman. You must become a cuckold and let your girl fuck a real man.
It's the only way you can keep a woman, if you don't, she'll cheat.
Sorry, you have to choose the lesser evil.
>>17148105
Hide it inside her.
there are women out there who are genuinely ok with small penis.
i'm smaller than 90% of guys and my gf has no issue with it and we have had a good sex life for 4+ years
How do I tell my friend that she's not attractive enough for me?
>>17148076
Is she really ugly or do you have overblown standards?
But yeah tell her you're just not attracted to her and you see her as a friend, like a bro
It's not you, it's me :^)
U G L Y you ant got no alibi you ugly!
i just can't bring myself to respect women. I want to be in a relationship with them, i want to spend time with them, i want to fuck them, but I just have no respect for them as individuals. Literally, nothing about women is respectable to me. Mothers are somewhat respectable especially if they actually take good care of their kid, but thats about it. I see no other value in women aside from that.
Am i a liberated red pill bro or something?
Yeah judging people without knowing them is sure 'le redpill'.
/pol/ is basically an industrial grade pussy repellent, so you better get off that shit if you want any action
Women are shitty as fuck, OP. You can't respect them.
Or you put a facade and fuck them, or you masturbate.

I don't really know where else to turn.
This is the third summer in a row I've been jobless. (Just turned 21)
I always took every piece of (good) advice I was given on getting a job:
>Apply long before the summer starts (I always start applying in February)
>Apply everywhere, even to places that don't have signs up or where you might not be qualified to look, some places might need an errand jockey
>Apply wearing a dress shirt, dress pants, nice haircut, looking sharp
>Have references available (I've done some temp work for a family friend working a sales table at some gaming conventions, and the guy's known me for a long time and would totally give me the best reference ever, if they'd only call him).
I had good grades in HS and I have a >3.5 GPA, just finished my third year of college double majoring in math and education. I wouldn't say I'm attractive or ugly, and I smile about as much as other people.
My main issue is, every place seems to want experienced people- even entry-level shit. Dunkin' Donuts wouldn't hire me to sling donuts and coffee unless I had barista experience, for Christ's sake.
What am I doing wrong? What else can I do right? Even my best friend has gotten a job two towns over, but his mother drives him there at 9am for free.
>>17147863
I don't know if I can help you. I got my job due to nepotism. The college my dad works at was looking for people to do some work unboxing and hooking up computers and stuff. I did that last summer and then started working in the records department. I'll probably do more physical stuff this summer. Maybe you could try something like that.
>>17147863
a few things
first is dont be so hard on yourself. namely because getting a summer job is kind of like trying to learn how to do a back flip, once a year. by which i mean its a really weird task.
perfectly hirable well resume'd experienced full fledged adults can spend months looking for a job. so you trying to find a job during the biggest job rush of the year (except for maybe the christmas season) where every fucking student / person at your level is applying for jobs on top of the adults...

I do actually have a part-time job this summer working for that aforementioned family friend, but it's only on the weekends and I need to get a job for during the week.
So at least I have SOMETHING on my resume.

I hate sex, that is I found it disgusting.
Not the act in sé, but what is around it: sexuality, hoookups, affairs, cheating.
Also I dislike the modern view of sex: if you don't argue with some extreme views of promiscuity and sex, you're bigot and open-minded.
Gender sexuality is the worse: male one sucks, the female one is worse. I'm afraid that we'll soon live in a future where open relationships are normal (maybe we're already in) and loyalty and monogamy are from the "past" and people behave like animals, without having self-respect...

there was a time when being homosexual was more or less forbidden, technically illegal, and gay bars were getting raided, its patrons getting shut down, and whatnot.
the point of this story is to illustrate how easy you got it. yes, the world (or at least the country) seems to be moving more towards open relationships and loyalty / monogamy are from the past. but no matter how deep that gets, there will still be plenty of plenty of people who are fine with monogamy and actively practice it. and you can...

I don't want to be cheated on.I've read terrible stories. I'm afraid of having a relationship today, and I'm not into hookups. Maybe I'd prefer to become entirely asexual.
Also, what's the point of having a society with 50% of divorce? What's wrong with modern marriage?
>>17147858
You don't become asexual. You become celibate or practice abstinence.
What's a MGTOW?
Where do you live? I've found that people tend to be in monogamous relationships where I'm from. Polyamory is becoming talked about, but I don't actually know anyone who practices it.
Why do you focus so much on it? If you don't care about it, then don't put energy into it. Find friends who care more about hobbies than they do about getting laid.

Do sophisticated people still exist? They don't necessarily have to be rich, just well mannered and groomed. I grew up this way and I feel like an alien in society. I'm not saying this to be pretentious, I just can't relate with anyone with my hobbies and interests.I'm 19 by the way, I know there are a bunch of older people like this.
There are no sophisticated people in your age group, not even the wealthy. In an age of social media, everyone immediately sinks to the lowest common denominator in order to try to feel inclusive with the group. You are "alien" because maybe you don't think poop jokes are funny or understand dank memes or think banging a washed-up whore while drunk is a good time. Whatever the reason, don't expect anyone to change for you, because they would rather you sink to their level rather than climb up to yours.
And, unfortunately, a real-life Diogenes Club doesn't exist.
>>17147845
can you tell us what your hobbies are? and i dont mean those things you do once in awhile, but what is your daily type hobbies?
>>17147845
Even if it is hard to imagine, most your schoolmates who are now just raging hormone filled teenagers talking and behaving like shits will grow up and mature into "well mannered groomed" human beings with like 40% chance.
You being sophisticated 19 just means you have very strict parents or easier puberty thingy. This however shouldn't put you off from trying to "being friends" with them, because you might enjoy hanging with them.
