My upper back muscles hurt, how do I fix that? I've been really working on my posture, but, it doesn't seem to help. I've followed youtube videos, stretches, whole nine yards. Been watching my chair posture, getting up every half hour. Nothing works.
haallpp
How do i be more positive and stop hating everything?
I'm aware I'm negative and it's bad for my mental health but I never change
>>29519222
isn't there a board for this already?
>>29519505
I'd see a physician or your doctor about that. Working on your posture is good, of course, but it can actually be quite bad for your back in some cases.
I know the best position for a person's back is in a reclined position, so maybe lay down whenever you get a chance?
Other than a doctor, maybe you could ease the pain with one of those icy-hot pad thingies.
Lemme know how that goes for ya
Are you the advice anon from years ago when we used to have these threads all the time? Guy was taking a psyche class or something i think.
>>29519546
Tried all this.
Doctor sent me to physical therapy. It hasn't helped much. I started swimming and that sort of helps for a little while.
>>29519523
It sucks. It's full of normalshits. Stacy's talking about riding the cock carousel and shit.

I've struggled with this a lot, and still do to this day. I could list off all of the generic, hallmark bullshit about counting your blessings, etc. but that won't help, probably.
I discovered, after looking into it, that I actually have mild clinical depression. However, if you're just trying to be a more positive guy in general, then you probably aren't depressed.
Something my therapist once told me to do is to catch myself when I'm saying/thinking negative things about myself/other things and to not say them out loud if you can help it. Then, think of as many things about yourself/subject that are contrary to what your original thought was in a positive light.
It's corny, but it helps more than it seems on paper, trust me.
>>29519564
Nope. I'm just trying to help people out how I can.
>>29519523
>>29519574
This, basically. I find this board is full of people that have actually relevant problems and might actually need some help.
>>29519582
>I actually have mild clinical depression
that's, at minimum, literally everyone here except for the tourists.
so "just bee positive" doesn't come that easy.
>>29519576
Personally, I think no fap is a little unhealthy.
It's totally fine to masturbate, as long as you aren't doing it every day/opportunity or to the point where you get PIED.
I find a healthy amount is 2-3 times a week, and maybe get your gf to send you nudes/sext if she can, rather than relying on porn.
If you're really determined though and you just wanna stop your boners, then they have meds for that. Else, ice your privates
>>29519568
Sorry to hear than, anon. Try to keep at the physical therapy, i've heard it tends to help a lot in the long term. Godspeed, my dude
>>29519634
I did it for 6 months. It's a ruse.
>>29519620
I know man, that's partially why i started this thread.
Therapy, as well, is always an option. Or even just having somebody to talk to. If you really think you might be depressed, you should see your doctor who can recommend you both a therapist, and medication if you think you need it.
>>29519650
Hmm, I dunno then. Maybe have your doctor have another look at it, if it's been going on for 6 months, you might have a much bigger problem than it seems.
>>29519659
I did therapy for 4-5 years, multiple therapists. Also saw psychiatrists too, who fucked me up on the jew drugs.
the mental health industry is shit, it's for failed normies not robots. we are too far gone for help
How the fug do you ask a girl out?
Im friends with her and stuff and I've not even flirted with her because I don't fucking know how and I'm not confident enough to flirt either way and it's not like she's a Stacy, we're both about 5's but I just like her personality a lot.
>>29519707
I dont think anybody is too far gone. I'm sorry therapy and your hebrew pills didn't work for you, however, maybe you haven't found the right outlet yet. Sometimes it can take a little more, like finding out what truly makes you happy in life, for a person to even begin to get better.
Remember: If Daft Punk can go through 3 albums and then realize they were humans after all, so can you. I hope everything starts to look up for you anon, and I believe in you.
>>29519742
If you like her personality a lot, that's fantastic! Being friends with somebody and growing to know and like them for who they are inside rather than out is probably the best way to get the girl.
Asking somebody out is nerve-wracking and scary, but once you do it, you will be so happy you did, trust me.
A good way to do it is to ask if you can talk to her in private or wait for an opportunity when it's just the two of you. Since you're both friends, it'll be easier to talk to her, and all you'll have to do is say something like
>"Hey [qt], I really really like you. I think you're an amazing person, and I want to be dating you. So, do you wanna go on a date sometime?"
Of course, it's best to use your own rendition. If you're extra nervous, feel free to practice in the mirror and don't forget to take deep breaths to calm yourself down beforehand.
I believe in you anon, you can get that girl.
>>29519821
Something I should add as well, if she turns you down and wants to just be friends, that's okay. Chances are, you'll still be friends, and that's what counts.
And hey, there's always a chance that she could fall for you in the future too, no?
>>29519742
I've had the experience of asking out friends before with mixed success. Try to have a few conversations about romance in general beforehand, but usually you just need to man up and confess your feelings.
>>29519821
>>29519841
Fug, I'm scared ;_;
>>29519859
I know anon, but that's okay! Like the other anon said, you've gotta buckle down and just tell her.
You can do it, I know you can.
