I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. I am not happy. I am in constant pain. It has also caused my anxiety to worsen tremendously, and I can't spend a moment without being afraid of nothing.
Anons, do you have illnesses? How do you cope with it? I'm scared that I'm going to allow this to completely ruin me.

Something's up with my digestive system but doctors can't figure out what, and I'm too much of a big ol vagina to undergo a biopsy cuz it's surgery. I've eaten BBQ and had to have the car pull over so I could waddle into the rain and spray shit on some plants. I've had to skip school because I kept having diarrhea. It's gotten better over the years, but today I realized apparently drinking coffee after going without it for a while is a big fucking no-no

Stop eating things with gluten. Stop eating or drinking dairy. Google specific foods to avoid with this disease and avoid them.
Pot will help too believe it or not.
All of these things may help significantly.
>>17113870
pot isn't legal in my state, but CBD is. will that be ok.

>This is just one incident. Wat do?
If you insist on hanging out with irritating people you will be put into irritating situations.
If you don't want to be irritated, stop hanging out with him.
Thats it. Make your choice.
>>17113798
Pretty much this. The great thing about life is the ability to pick and choose who we spend our time with. At the very least, have smaller doses of the people we can't stand.

Fuck, you're right.
I've known him since early high school, so I've been kind of hoping we can show him the error of his ways, but meh...
This is going to sound so stupid.
So my friend moved out to Los Angeles, and this friend knows a (lot) about me. He's also kind of an obnoxious, overweight person. He gets drunk and tries fucking everything then tells secrets and "forgets" in the morning. He kept saying he wishes he could meet friends down there, and if I know anyone down there to let him know.
I've been trying to distance myself. Well, he added my girlfriend on facebook a while ago and she accepted. Not a big deal, but the problem is: if me and my GF go visit her friend who lives close...

>Advice?
Man up and decide what you want.
Either tip-toe around this guy and run the chance of having an awkward encounter with him or confront him about his behavior and set boundaries with him like an adult.
If he asks to hang out tell him no, when he asks why, tell him the fucking truth.
You can't get what you want out of life and relationships being scared of confrontation and boundary setting.
Those are your options. Good luck.
>>17113780
>confront him
Thing is he hasn't done anything too fucked up to me for me to say "we're done", and if I confront him he might blackmail me because the shit he knows about me can ruin my relationship and life. I remember him getting mad at some girl for telling him to take care of his dog for a chance, and he got so mad and threatened to ruin her life by admitting something she had done that could get her deported. He didn't go through with it though.
He...

This doesn't change my advice. If keep him in your life he'll continue to be irritating and you'll continue to have to tip toe around him.
If you want to stop doing that, get him out of your life, even if its messy.
You seriously have...

So a few months ago I had an LSD trip that gave me an intense psychotic episode where I saw God and the devil and descended into hell after being told I was Jesus by messages through the tv. It took me quite a while to recover from that and to come back to my senses.
The thing is, everytime I smoke weed now it takes me back to that place. I start hallucinating noises that remind me of that trip or I start think my friend can read my mind or that I'm in hell or that the tv is giving me messages. It takes a little while to recover every time I smoke. But, I think I'm...

Bumping with C&H
I had a somewhat similar experience but it was a 4th plat DXM trip that I was in no way prepared for physically, mentally, or emotionally. After that trip I could not smoke weed without getting horribly anxious and paranoid, which had never happened to me before. This was about a year ago and what ended up helping me was two things, one of which I for sure recommend and one which I can't in good conscience. The first thing is that I just stopped smoking with other people for a while, and I stopped smoking to get high. I would get "buzzed" and then quit there,...

I have stopped smoking altogether and plan on never doing it again. Even when I think it's safe to smoke again it takes me right back

Last time I got some nice pics I need some more so don't skimp on me.
How can I avoid being an autistic gay retard?
>>17113754
you did not pay the fee
>>17113754
This cat doesn't work fore free but I will let this one pass.
I have no clue what is autistic gay retarded so explain what makes one.
More detailed question better answer.
Is this hazel? Or just simply brown eyes?
>>17113732
Just brown.
Brown. Hazel is green and brown together.
>>17113732
Brown.
Im about to add this girl on instagram. Any advice? Anyone here done it as well? Im trying my best not to come over as a creep or stalker. Im a an average looking guy, am fit, not autistic, but since she got a lot of neckbeards who bombarded her social media before i feel that she could have a prejudice against strangers adding her.
Any advice is much appreciated

Katya Lischina?
>>17113655
Yes. Why do you think this is bait?
>>17113659
Because I'm sure she's used to it by now, considering everyone and their mother knows who she is. Stop thinking you're special, because you'll never mean anything to her.
Okay, I really need advice.
I'm finishing up a transfer degree this spring, and then will be moving on to a four year school out of town. I'm married, and though both my husband and I work, (him full time, me part time while I finish hard as fuck classes) we can't make ends meet. Our landlord and internet provider (which I need for school) both upped their prices on us, and because we've been juggling paying bills for so long, we have back car insurance, back electricity, and even back rent past due.
I still owe money to my current college...

have you tried not living beyond your means? Where the hell did your husband's bad credit magically appear from I wonder.
where the fuck do you live. quit pawning shit and start selling it.
>>17113627
We don't try to live beyond our means. I don't go on amazon shopping binges, I don't buy vidya gaems, I don't even go out to eat that often. I haven't bought new clothes in over a year. I'm struggling to pay the basic necessities. LIKE FOOD. It's not like I have an Xbox live account or whatever, and am refusing to give up that. I don't have cable, I don't get things for myself to make me feel better.
I only have what I need. Electricity, a roof, food. Internet...

Alright /adv/ give me your advice on this situation. Met this girl in grad school (Shes 23 I'm 26)...should I pursue next semester or let her go?

She's obviously using you as a spare wheel (no pun intended).
It was obvious that she was shifting through a bunch of guys and ends up finding a better guy than you and wanted to cut you loose, forget about her famili.

Well this might for sure get you out of the friend zone.
A few years ago, I introduced my gal pal to my friend. 4 years later, they are getting married, and the wedding is coming up in three weeks. While they were the ones to make their relationship work, they would not be getting married if I had not introduced them to one another.
My Gal Pal has not included me in the bridal party, and I am not invited to her bachelorette party. This is all because one of her bridesmaids hates my guts. This Bridesmaid and I used to be friends, but our friendship ended after a huge spat nearly 6 years ago. I won't bore you with details,...

(Continued)
I was invited to the BRIDAL SHOWER, and had to work with The Bridesmaid to write down who got what for gifts. I thought we were getting along, but apparently the Bridesmaid later gossiped she couldn't stand to be around me, etc.
WTF, pham? The Bride is literally saying, "My friend is a brat and hates you, so to avoid conflict, you guys can't be in the part together or even the bachelorette party." I have talked to close family and friends, and they all say this is nonsense, and The Bridesmaid should be expunged for being a brat,...

It's her wedding you selfish twat. That being said she is a shit friend. Cut her off
>>17113542
Seems like you needed more of a rant. You already know your friend chose her friend over you and you just wanted to let off some steam.
Can only find generic help that doesn't really work.
Does anyone know any effective ways of promoting content on YouTube without giving the guys over there cash? It often doesn't work and it costs more than you'd expect.
Just to let you know, I'm up on social media, I am trying to collaborate, and I am trying to make videos frequently.
Unless you are previously famous or at least internet famous, you're mostly shit out of luck. For every 10 videos of the thing you search for, there are likely 100s of videos that never get more than 50-100 views.
It's just the nature of the beast.
Your best bet is to latch onto something trending and be one of the videos that might come up when people are searching what's going down.
What are your videos about?
>>17113404
This is a good tip, find an unfilled and emerging niche and make it your thing.
My brother is trying to get YouTube famous and he has an app on his phone that gives him subscribers. He's actually gotten hundreds since he started using it and I would think having a high number looks good to potential actual viewers. I can ask him the name of the app if you're interested
>>17113404
I mostly do YTPs on current events. Recently, I did one on Keemstar, which might go down well.
Other things include the simple ones that get views but don't engage the viewer with the channel, like compilations and clips from other videos. These bring in the views, but not the subscribers.
Is there anyway to lower my sex drive naturally as a 23 year old male? It's through the roof and not good for me.
Why: In short Im rather unattractive, so no sex for me. No, my standards are not high...they are basically dont be too fat. However not even 300lb women talk to me, ever.
Im finishing college next year and having to see so many pretty girls around and none talk to me is rather depressing. If sex wasn't on my mind i would not be depressed.
Some will ask, well anon try eating healthy and exercising: Iv been working out for over 2 years,...

Did you even engage any girl ever? Fill your lungs with air, rub that sweat off your face and have a chat with some girls?
>>17113361
Steroids will eventually tank your sex drive once you've shut down endogenous test production.

not trying to risk my health, I work out and eat healthy to be healthy.
My grandpa is turning 91 tomorrow but just got his license taken away. I want to give him something that he could do at home that might cheer him up. Ideas?
hire an escort

What does he like to do? For example, my grandpa and I used to build airplane models because he was a pilot back in the day.

My girlfriend is an RCMP officer and she volunteered to help with the Fort McMurray evacuation and left 2 days ago. The phone calls of what she describes is intense and scares me, I'm really worried about her safety.
She left without giving me much heads up, she just texted me and said she was going, came by and grabbed some things, gave me a kiss and left. I'm not really too hurt over that because that's what drew me to her in the first place.
I am worried about her safety though and she was going door to door to clear households while the city...

She's just your girlfriend, not your wife or a relative. She's replaceable.
