She may be OCD.

She needs a therapist if she's gone that far.

>>18392985

She is diagnosed OCD and refuses to go to a therapist - she believes they "can't do anything" and are "out to get her."

>>18392971
>>18392991

I guess I should append both of my posts - she used to be a model that explored the world and was the last thing you'd ever think of as a homebody. She's still got a lot going for her, but is just super afraid, for reasons I don't get. And she insists she isn't.

you can have a thing where you get yeast in your stomach that produces alcohol from any sugars you ingest. also thc gets stored in fat cells and can take a long time to go away.

>>18392969
who did the test?

>>18392989
I exercise 5 days a week and drink at least 10 glasses of water a day. There's no way marijuana would stay in my system for that long.

>Is it just a part of transitioning further into adulthood? 25 y/o male here
yuuuup. same age too. my thing was I outgrew them and started going a different direction in life. then none of us got along anymore, shit went real south.

friends come and go.

>>18392965
well same age as when it happened to me without being a thing where people moved, or I moved, but where we just stopped being compatible types of people.

this is why I always thought the
>bros before hoes
thing was stupid. bros don't stick around forever, or at least very few do. if you find someone that you really mesh with though, that can last a lifetime and you share life in a way that you don't with friends, and you grow together in ways you don't with friends.

take beta blockers or talk to your doctor about anxiety and get an anxiety medication prescription.

>>18392929
Isn't that Overkill/ unsustainable?

>>18392934
you're asking how to be drunk 24/7 yet you think anxiety medication is overkill?

you could just try therapy or something I guess. cognitive behavioral therapy to be precise.

Looks more like streptococcus pyogenes to me, but I wouldn't say anything definite without any lab tests.

Does mouthwash help kill the bacteria and are there other ways to treat this without a doctor's help?

How the fuck should I know? I don't know what you look like, I don't know how you talk to girls, and I can't read your stupid mind

>>18392837

you're probably ugly and your true intentions become known and they stop pretending to care.

>>18392837
Everyone wants to talk about themselves so STFU and let them.

>>18392827
dude hes probably depressed or going through something, don't be a dick and assume the worst about people. ask him whats wrong.

He sounds like a little asshole, don't put up with his immaturity. If it were me I would find a new roommate.

>>18393402
Almost this. Deal with each problem on a case-by-case basis. When he whines about X, confront him on it and tell him why it's not something he gets to whine about. When he whines about Y, do the same thing. Rinse and repeat until all issues are dealt with. If he goes back to whining about something you've already covered, move out or kick him out.

sheer force of will.

>>18392825
Getting into a habit helps with the will power stuff, if you find it getting more and more exhausting, taper off a bit and add habits progressively.

>>18392825
It takes three or four months to see a real difference

you need to hang in there

If you're already planning on hooking up with some randos while traveling, you've got two options:

One, you can just end it with her and save her the heartache. If you think you're going to cheat, then that's a sign you should not be in a monogamous relationship

Tow: Propose an open relationship while you're gone, or simply tell her that you don't mind her hooking up with people while you're both apart, as long as you're allowed the same. This is risky because if she says no, you may have probably killed the relationship- even if you agree not to hook up with anyone, she will never really be able to trust that you kept your word and that WILL fester.

Or, you can just, y'know, enjoy your time abroad without sticking your dick into some rando. It's very possible to do that.

why would either of you financially help the other with college? that's your own responsibility.

besides that have you thought of the ramifications for future employment? who's going to want to hire a slut for a professional job that requires a degree?

>>18392680
Because he values your closeness and wanst your body to exclusive to him and only him and vice versa. He also prob isn't comfortable with 100s of guys jacking it to you online

>>18392686
I'm currently employed and have two jobs but I go to a private institution and it's still fairly expensive

I can't risk transferring out because most times all the credits don't transfer over and I'll be behind

I've never taken up on these offers but they wouldn't include me showing my face
I've had men telling men they'd like me to verbally degrade them for money or simply just buy my socks or shoes for big bucks

I've had conversations with my boyfriend and he still doesn't feel comfortable with these circumstances
Which I respect and I haven't participated in

>>18392556
you gotta eat anon.

>>18392910
I just can't. When every time I think of that person I feel sick and butterflies and loosing my appetite.
I don't know if that person will feel the same as I feel? Or it's mostly just myself being lovesick?

Here's what you do...

You go to the gym daily, and lift weights with vigor. I mean, you really gotta kick your own ass.

It'll clear your mind, and make you absolutely starving. Eat ASAP after working out! If you wait, the hunger sort of fades away.

I think it depends the amount of money you want to invest.
I think i would buy houses or something near the beach. People rent them during holidays and prices go up during summer.

Well as for money if you don't have an emergency fund I'd highly suggest starting one. It is always good to have a safety net for a rainy day. You won't know how valuable this is until you experience your first major expense - maybe you need surgery, maybe your whole car is totaled and your insurance company pays jackshit, etc. Having $5000 always in your checking account as this emergency fund is a good idea.

Beyond that you can start investing your savings, but don't waste your time with stocks. Only 5% of day traders actually make more money than the overall market, and you're not going to be the 1 in 20. Once you've got your emergency fund squared away open up an index fund (vanguard's S&P500 fund is the most popular because it has the lowest expense ratio, but there are other good ones as well) That's what you should be putting your savings into because your return will closely mirror the performance of the S&P500 which is about the best bet you can make. Here's the one I like https://personal.vanguard.com/us/funds/snapshot?FundId=0540&FundIntExt=INT

>safe
>lots of money
pick one.

Just try to be understanding. Don't make it all about you, don't take it personally if he wants to be alone sometimes, understand that you can't necessarily "fix it" just by loving him.

>>18392416
By dumping him and finding yourself a normal man instead of a chronic crybaby primadonna. You are welcome.

>>18392416
Talk to him, make him cry on your shoulder, force him to get a job, adopt sport and go with him to psycholog.

Also chances are high he doesnt have clinic depression, just that he is sad and generally lost with his life.

try some dark chocolate and maybe some cranberry juice. Don't forget to offer some to any friends doing ecstasy as well :)
Happy tripping

Just fucking deal with it you pussy, holy shit it's just a comedown.
Do you cry about a hangover as well faggot?

>>18392404
Thanks! I'll keep that in mind
