hey moralfags. why you get so mad when someones self centered?
Because human beings are all in this together. We should share knowledge, for example, to help advance the human race.
Even more simply:
Self centered: Helps one person (themselves)
Not self centered: Helps others who in turn help others, thus benefitting countless people

someone disagreeing with your point of view is no reason to get mad. try again

Point of view? The fuck are you taking about? That's literally what happens. Was the monkey example not simple enough to illustrate it?
It is your duty as a member of a species to advance your species in some way, unless you are too physically and mentally disabled to do so. We would all still be amoebas if this didn't happen. Do you want to be an amoeba?
>TL;DR - Extreme hyperventilation just shy of fainting causing a lasting irregular heart beat?
Yesterday morning about 9am I woke up, ate breakfast...all the regular shit. Around 11 I took 30 mg adderall XR, did homework and went about my day as usual. I normally drink coffee and know what withdrawal is like when i drink too much but normally about a cup or two a day. But today I had a few more, maybe 5 in all.
About 4 in the afternoon I was driving to my friends house and started hyperventilating to the extreme (all the coffee mentioned...

It could be any number of things. Too much caffeine, the speed, low blood sugar, a heart defect. Who fucking knows huh?
Basically a cardiac event is a cardiac event and permanent damage will show classic signs and symptoms which is more likely than you have developed some new or rare disorder.
Read up on it. If you aren't informed then you aren't going to feel reassured and if you still feel you need the opinion of another don't use 4chan for medical advice.

you could also have triggered a panic attack from all the stims you took. panic attacks can cause real physical symptoms like shortness of breath, numb/tingly parts of your body, fast heartrate, mental confusion, inability to speak. they also makes you HYPER aware of all the small changes in your body which makes you panic more.
if you were going to die it probably would've happened by now so there's that. all of the shit you did yesterday is out of your system. you could just be suffering from the...

Some good insight. I really appreciate it, man. My dad had had all sorts of heart problems and every since I was a kid I've had all kinds of tests to make sure nothing has been passed down and up until now my heart has been fine. With that, I'm going to see his reg heart dr and just be honest with the guy.
You're right on the coffee too. The days I drink more than usual are typically boring. it's more like a way to pass time and take a break. Gotta switch to tea or something of the sort
So I had this thing for a girl for a while. Fell really hard for her, to the point where I would even say I was in love, although I'm not sure if that's completely accurate as I don't have any other experiences to compare it to.
She ended up transferring to another, out of state university, which I knew was going to happen, so I never pursued anything more than friendship with her. We'd study for between 8 and 15 hours a week and we had two classes together, so we spent a lot of time just hanging out.
I've spent this last semester trying to forget...

Been there before. You just gotta stop looking at her social media and stuff. Just focus on trying to live your life for you and nobody else. Eventually you'll get over it. Then another girl will come along and the cycle repeats.
>>17131932
you'll probably always have that "fish who got away" feeling and the sooner you become cool with that the sooner it becomes just a fact and not a knife to the heart waiting to happen just by clicking wrong on facebook. facts can be dealt with, but emotions will rule your thoughts.
it might take 1-2 years to get to that point where it's just a fact that you regret you didn't have more with this girl. learning to do this with this girl will help you out down the road when you inevitability...

this anon... this
Whenever I smoke too much weed I get extremely anxious, paranoid, delusional, and psychotic.
Because of this, smoking weed can be pretty stressful, but also entertaining and much more novel than the average high. Despite this silver lining, a pretty strong association between anxiety/paranoia/delusions and weed has been built.
With that said, I'm interested in psychedelics. LSD is pretty much off the table because it's practically impossible to get. Psilocybin could work, but I've heard it described as more intense and less controllable than LSD.
Does anyone here have a similar relationship with weed and positive experiences with LSD, psilocybin, or MDMA?
I've been struggling with depression off and on since 2010 and social/general anxiety for the past two years (partially because the anxiety was exacerbated by smoking pot daily in stressful environments). Because of my anxiety/depression, I'm think MDMA is the way to go. Ofc I can't stand EDM/rave/etc culture. It always seems obnoxious and hedonistic to me, which isn't why I'm interested in psychedelics.
So yeah, has anyone with a similar relationship with pot gone insane or been institutionalized after doing a psychedelic? It's my main concern. I've felt my pot induced delusions lingering long after the high passed, which freaks me out about my mental health.
>>17131899
mdma has a crash and will make you suicidal if you are depressed. my advice is don't do drugs, they sound like they give you problems. if you are worried about mental health then a psychedelic is a pretty fucking stupid idea.
dumbass
>>Whenever I smoke too much weed I get extremely anxious, paranoid, delusional, and psychotic.
Stop smoking weed and find a solution that doesn't involve substance intoxication.
You stupid fuck. Sit down and think back to what point you decided inebriation by controlled substance was a necessary part of life. Try not needing an altered perception to entertain yourself.
weed's a pretty good indicator for you're going to have a bad time with a lot of drugs. if you get into anxiety loops with weed then shits going to be worse with harder stuff.
get addicted to something like exercise and eating well. you'll feel high all day and there's obvious benefits.
Fellow men I require some opinions on a situation I'm facing.
3 months ago I had my ex girlfriend of 2 years break up with me while we were going through a rocky patch. 4 weeks after our breakup we both decided that it would be best to sit down together and discuss our differences and see whether or not the decision made was right and the night before we were going to catch up, a rumor made by somebody who I thought was my friend was made up which he had said I was planning on physically abusing her in my car when i met up with her which was far from true he got...

We gonna get a TL;DR?
>>17131872
Live your life in such a way so that if someone were to speak ill of you, no one would believe them. Maybe this person did spread a rumor, but the best lies have truth to them too. You aren't as blameless as you would lead us to believe, I would wager. That being said, clearly it's time for you to find a new group of people to associate with. Try to be a better person with these new people so you don't fall victim to rumors like this again.
Also, I spoke to both my ex's best friend and my ex yesterday and they told me the same story both unaware ive made contact with either.
My ex kept resenting me because she thought i was lying to her the whole time. I'm going to say at this point he is trying but hasn't gotten what he wants and I refuse to let somebody's betrayal ruin my future with somebody. I don't intend on getting physical but I'm not a coward and I won't be afraid of showing him a reflection of the pain he inflicted on me by lying to everybody around me to get what he wants.
What do you do about fake friends who are nice to your face, but never offer any genuine friendship?
She's so deeply ingrained in my friendship group so I can't cut her out of my life, and I really don't want to antagonize myself.
Make her a pizza and that will help smooth things over

How about you not be an entitled cunt and realize not everything revolves around you and what you "feel"?
Just go about your business and stop caring so much
I have a "skinny fat" physique. Pic related is not me but exactly what I'm talking about. I'm tired of it though so I've been going to the gym to lift 3 times a week.
My biggest concern is the fact that I think I look like I have small tits. I don't think it's gyno though because they are not huge but I'm not sure
How long will it take to work off if I'm exercising 3 times/week?
Also which exercises would be most effective?
>>17131819
its water weight, u have to lift weights and drink more water (if u drink less ur body conserves it )
that´s a pretty hot bod anon

2 questions about exercise /adv/
1. is it normal to feel really cold after exercise? I usually do. Sweat evaporating but even after I get out of sweaty clothes and under covers I feel really cold.
2. I had breakfast today but haven't eaten since and it's 10:30pm. I thought I'd eat after working out but in fact it killed my appetite. I have a feeling that if I did eat something it would awaken my hunger but I'm kind of inclined to just not eat anything. It would mean an approximately 500 calorie day. Bad idea?
for information I am pretty...

1) You're cold not just because of the sweat evaporating from your body, but because your blood is rushing out from the core of your body to the extremities, which has a higher surface area which, in turn, allows for more rapid heat loss. It's why you can see your veins in the summer time poking out of your skin, but in winter they "recede"; your body is trying to regulate itself by putting all of the blood in your body as far from your core as possible;
2) A 500 calorie diet is suicide. Your body will start to leach proteins from your muscles, rendering...

Doctors of /adv/ :
what is that thing called when you have some lighter dots on your genitalia?
I have read that it's completely harmless, but it looks kinda strange, so in case I'd ever be about to lose my virginity I want to be able to explain what it is so she doesn't freak out.
>pic unrelated
Your dick is not printer paper. It's gonna have bumps and spots.
If your spots are
• weeping
• burning
• sloughing
• painful
• strangely-shaped and pronounced
• pits full of little "hairs" of skin
you could have an STD. Skin discoloration on its own is not cause for alarm.
>>17131738
yeah, they are spots.
but they don't itch, nor hurt nor anything, they feel exactly like the rest of the skin.
should probably add that I remember one wikipedia link that exactly looked like and described my thing.
It said that it was harmless, just like moles.
bump?
Is there a term for watching others without their realization that's less intense than spying and snooping? Similar to voyeurism but minus the sexual gratification. Thanks so much! I need this for my thesis so it's important.
Feel free to ignore the image.
like eavesdropping?
observing?
monitoring?
i hope to god you're not an English major.
>>17131705
Thank you although none of those will work for my purposes. I'm writing an essay on Rear Window if that helps. Observing is too light of a term, monitoring just isn't right for the overall attitude of it, and eavesdropping doesn't really have anything to do with it at all.
And no, thank god I'm not.
I guess for now I'll stick with snooping but use less intense phrases for it in the body paragraphs. But I had to identify the theme I was going to talk about and voyeurism wasn't the right word and I didn't want to have to use a whole sentence just to name the theme.
Hey so I'm about to fail my AP English exam tomorrow any last minute tips?

call in sick
I've been unemployed for 1 month and I was just offered a job I feel is beneath me.
The hours are ok, and it's conveniently located. The problem is, the pay is significantly less than what I'm used to. It's only been a month, and I've got other interviews, but no firm offers yet.
Should I decline the offer and hope for something better? Or is there any reason I shouldn't just take it until I find my dream job?

No but I have some savings that will last me at least a few more months.
The work seems easy, I don't think I'd have any problems. I'm just worried I'll take a step down in my career.
My SO wants to take a break from sexual activity because she doesn't feel the connection when we have sex. She says that I don't do anything wrong, but can't fully articulate it other than saying that she is just not feeling it lately. I told her that this is an issue we can work through but she isn't sure about that and we're both pretty upset about the situation. On a different occasion she said "pay more attention to me" during sex, and I try but it doesn't seem like it's enough. Outside of the bedroom we are very close and have...

Let me tell you something anon
As a femanon who's been working in the sexual health industry for years: girls need to put as much effort into cumming as guys put into making them cum.
Seriously, if she's feeling dissatisfied in bed its something you both need to work on.
How is your openness in the bedroom?
Do you talk about fantasies? Likes and dislikes of sexual activities? What's your floor play routine?
A good sexual relationship needs communication, only she knows what she's feeling and only she can communicate that to anyone.

Penis size matters not man
Unless you have a micro penis
But even at that, if you can eat pussy first and work the clit like a pro while you penetrate, you're golden man
Seriously
Most girls get very little from penetrative sex, you need to train your g-spot to have internal, good feelings from sex
Kegels exercise will help streghten the g-spot, same as masturbation focused on the g-spot for long periods of time (not in one fap session but in general)
