I posted in here a few days ago about my therapist. I haven't seen her in years and I've gotten super bad since I've last seen her.

I tried to make an appointment, I got an answering machine. "I will get back to you within 24 hours, leave your name and number" I did this and it's been 48 hours since. Did she reject me? I haven't had a good history of showing up to appointments to various counselors in the past including her.

I really need some kind of counseling or professional help. I need help as soon as possible really. I'm a fucking neet and I don't know where to find help.

Should I get a second job, /adv/? I'm an 18 year old girl, going on 19 in a month. I have a job that gives me anywhere between 22 and 28 hours a week, and is usually in the evenings, so I was thinking I could get one at the cefco down the road and work the night shift.

The closest thing I have to an authority figure was telling me these are the years of my life where I'll have the most physical energy and stamina, so I shouldn't waste it on a single part time job and get a second, but I'm unsure if I'd be able to handle it, since just my first one makes me feel pretty tired. What are your experiences with juggling two jobs? Is it worth it?

>Be smoking weed
>Getting mad paranoid
>All of a sudden another version of me steps into the room, telling me that I'm stronger than this
>He sits down, smokes a cig with me and starts speaking confident talk to me
>Paranoia and Anxiety are purged from my body
>Before he leaves he tells me to be more selfish

Am I developing a split personality? This isn't the first time I've seen this other version of me. When I'm sober and watching TV he'll plop down on my hammock and just chill.

>tl;dr seeing another version of myself and interacting with him. Am I crazy?

I received a knee injury over a year ago and it hasn't healed. The first time I went to a doctor, I got x rays. They said everything is fine, "it's just inflammation" and tried to throw pharmaceuticals for pain relief at me. I took one whole pill bottle worth as the doctor recommended but no results. I've sustained pain on the outside my right knee and now it's starting to get weak. I can't run anymore, I can't bend past parallel, sometimes my whole knee will stiffen/swell up if I stand to long. I'm poor, my work doesn't provide health insurance and I can't take the time off if it needs surgery, I'm already behind in rent a car fines. I want to look for new work, but I don't know if I can keep this up. I can take the pain but I feel like my whole knee is about give away soon.

What should I do? I just want a better job and my knee to be better.

I have a cute trap wife that I take care of.
She does not enjoy using messaging applications.

She would rather talk in person.

I understand that. But there is some advantages to messaging applications that can't be ignored!

Anyways nagging her to send me a message with her phone isn't working to well.

I need some job advice. I want to change career paths, but don't have any money to pay for another degree. Alternatively i could get into more debt and do another degree, but i nee a 100% guarantee i'll be earning a good amount afterwards and have employment.

As for my skills, i'm a very hands on person. I'm not great with math, but good at thinking outside the box. Ideally i want a job that will be fairly automation proof.

I'm transferring to a four-year university next year and I don't know where I should go.

School 1: Unbearably hot weather 7 months of the year. (Already live here). A lot of programs, resources, and opportunities, low cost of living). (Large city = More competition)

School 2: Nice cold weather that I would enjoy all year, high cost of living, lower amount of opportunities, small city of only about 60k people.

Weather seems to be a big factor to me for some reason...

My mother is an incredibly toxic person. She's been abusive, physically and emotionally, since I was little and now that I'm legal, it doesn't seem to be getting better. Our relationship is very strained because she doesn't know how to control her anger and lashes out at me for very little things. We've talked, argued, and both cried over this when I came back from college for the break and I thought our relationship would change. However, she is still the emotionally damaging person I have grown up to resent.

She's told me about how she was raised and how I should feel fortunate to have a stable life like I do now. And I am forever grateful but I can't stay near someone who continuously calls me useless and berates me.

Very recently, she found out I was intimate with my boyfriend. I don't know how but I can only assume she looked through my phone. One day, she got furious over me trying to clean a tub that didn't work (I thought she had told me to earlier but I guess not), storms to her room, and yells out "Go be a slut for all I care, just go away."

Of course, I'm furious and how these two situations correlate is beyond me. I want to cut ties but I'm financially dependent on her and don't know if I should actually cut ties or continue to stand this. What should I do?

How do I give less of a shit about somebody?
I find myself getting saddened if they don't reply to a message after an hour or two.
I'd rather just not care as much. She still likes me, it's just that she always takes a while to respond for some reason.

My aunt and grand mother nag me so much about not having a girlfriend. I am 26 now and I have a job and such but a relationship just has not come my way yet.

I usually just say "none of your business" and I grumble off. I kinda just want to unleash the fucking MGTOW pill on them but I am not even a full blown mgtow.

I will admit, I am bitter because I effectively have no relationship experience and women aren't looking my way anyway. A part of me just wants to unleash though and give em the pill.

I always wonder how I even got to this point. How is it that I got to be this age and have never experienced what some humans have been experiencing since their teens? Why is it this world leaves a bitter taste?

How would I be able to set-up a private internet connection at work?

I currently work at a job that is supposed to be 40 hours of office time, but the work I actually do only amounts to about 20 hours. Looking to get a remote full-time job from aforementioned job, but I need a private internet connection. My current employer has free, solid wi-fi, but I don't want any of my activity tracked. Any work done for job #2 would be done from my personal laptop. Thoughts?
