I often feel frustrated/angry. Any advice on how to chill out? I don't do drugs, but I'm considering getting into smoking oil and stuff. My brother is really into it and it seems to help him.
Not sure why I'm even so pent up. I'm relatively laid back, live laid back, and have a lot of free time. I feel pretty confident in my character, financially stable, not perfect in appearance-but I make it work. I don't know what I even have to feel angry/upset about.

Is there perhaps anything at all in your life that you might be resisting?
>>
>>18128586
I guess. I feel pretty stable about it though. Family expectations are a bit stressful. Feelings of past romance creeps on me a bit. Concerned a bit over the well-being of those I care about since they likely won't be where they want to in the future. I feel like I'm accepting of reality of these situations though. Maybe not though. It's possible that my psyche is resisting my own reason.

Avoid the things that make you angry.

Getting Headaches After Playing Choking Game

My brother and I played a variant of the choking game where the legs would squeeze the other person's neck until that person gave up (signalled by a "tap out"), whoever tapped out first lost.
I'm 18 years of age, 6'0 and 140 pounds and my brother is 11 years old, 4'9 and 60 pounds. Therefore, I was surprised that my brother had not tapped out after about 4 minutes before I let go. So when it was my turn, I thought that I would not tap out either. However, it was to my surprise that I could only last 3 seconds (he would count the seconds out loud) before tapping out. I asked for a rematch and after about 15 seconds I passed out. My brother didn't notice that I was unconscious and continued squeezing.
He said that around the 200 second mark he noticed that I was shaking severely and so he let go. After that, I was out cold for about 10 minutes, my mouth was foaming and I had urinated and excreted.
After that, I felt very dizzy and had a headache but I didn't feel that it warranted a doctor but now I've noticed some possible symptoms. I've thrown up twice since the choke (yesterday) and it took me about 10 minutes to stand up after waking up today. Furthermore, I'm feeling really weak and my reactions are significantly slower to the point where my brother beat me in an arm wrestle with 1 hand against my 2 which would obviously not occur in normal circumstances. When should I expect these symptoms to go away? It is making me feel really emasculated around my brother.
Also, what was the shaking about? Did I have some kind of seizure? I've read a lot about the dangerous side effects and I've had really intense headaches since the incident yesterday. Will this go away too? My friend told me that sometimes people shake after getting knocked out and it's normal, so I didn't go to the doctor. Should I go? What do you all make of my symptoms?

Just to add that the pic is of a separate incident between us where we had a play fight, that's not when we played the choking game.

I'm 18. I wanted to do so many things with my life. Now I work a shitty factory job that I work 8-7 at. I don't even make much (100 per day). When I get home all my energy is gone because I'm on my feet all day. I wanted to go to the gym, to learn more about music, to read and progress as a man should, but I'm just so fucking tired all the time now. I don't enjoy seeing my family, I resent them because they don't work like I do.
It depresses me to think about it; I have to do this day after day for 6 months until university starts. What the hell do I do? I can't get another job, nobody will hire me. I don't know why.
Please help

18yr old senior in highschool here, slacked off most of highschool but since im gonna be going to college next year i got my shit together and been working hard and was wondering if i bust my ass off in college in the 2 years im going to a community college is it possible to go to uni in another country without paying too much out of my pocket(scholarships maybe?) if so would it be bad idea or its fine?
(posted this in QTDDTOT but its dead so i thought i'd make my own post since this is open to discussion)

Work hard and apply for shit. It's beyond possible. Do not give up no matter what.

I'm I'm the exact same situation. I'm going to community college for 2 years then transferring and yes of course you can rock CC then go to a great uni. CUNY is great for this, since if you keep up a 2.5+ GPA and get an associates at a CC you have pretty much guaranteed admission to a lot of their 4 year colleges. Don't stress it too much, get good grades in community college, show up, do your work, and you'll be fine.

The pain is mostly self-inflicted from their daily asperger meltdowns. The angst of childhood has been amplified by the internet a hundredfold. Back when I was a kid and I was moody and fucked up and alone all I could do was sit with my thoughts and talk to people in real life and learn to deal with my emotions in a healthy way.
Now with this place there is no challenge; no real life stimulus forcing people to grow up, just an echo chamber where teenagers and middle aged virgins can come and pretend to be victims.
I feel sorry for no one here. They're here because they're miserable and they're miserable because being miserable is easier than admitting that the only people to blame for their misery is them. The internet has bred a world of entitled faggots and this place is the crown jewel of its kingdom.

>am i overreacting by getting mad at my girlfriend for smoking hookah with her brother
Yes...
The fuck does hookah have to do with weed?
No shit Sherlock.... That's kind of] the purpose of this board. This is /adv/ people come here because they have shit bugging them that they feel like they need to talk about because they're either desperate, need to vent, or need someone to soundboard off of.
>Seems to be mostly cheating.
150 posts.
3 of them are about cheating (INCLUDING yours)
2 of them are about being doubt of their relationship and thinking about opening their relationship up/mention cheating
Even if we're generous and count the ones that are NOT about cheating along with those that do
5/150 = 3%
3%--by ANY definition--is not "mostly".
I need some help

>dade find out be angry but forgive me
>week later I steal moms watch sell it
>she finds out today
>Ifeellikeaterribleperson.jpg

What do?
P.S before you call me a piece of shit for doing this even though I am, I am asking for advice on how to Change myself for the better and to make my parents proud

Is it possible to launch a startup if you don't live in a big city? To be more specific, I'm thinking of starting a tech startup in Nashua, about 90k people. Would I be able to find employees easily?

>>18128228
depends on the startup. anythings possible but its more likely that you'd have to move somewhere big to be really successful.
>>
>>18128362
What reasons would one have to move a business somewhere bigger besides a larger labor pool? It seems like it would raise costs a lot.
>>
>>18128380
major businesses aren't centered in major cities simply because of labor, many of those travel / move for the job any way.
its becuase of the clients. even when you have clients on a national / international level you can bet your ass you get more business being able to meet in person in los angeles, san fran and new york.
A girl I liked who seem to like me and outright asked me out once in the past just told me she has a crush on another girl and plans to talk to her despite having had a boyfriend for 8 months.
I was deadset on asking her out, is it a really bad idea to do that now?

Yes. She told you this because she either a) wanted you to get the hint that she doesn't to go out with you or b) she actually is interested in this other girl and doesn't want to go out with you.
Don't stoop so low as to ask a girl out who explicitly stated she has feelings for someone else. Its kinda sad, dude.

Hold the fuck up.
What? There's multiple levels of fuckery here that perplexes me. My immediate response would be to find out what the girl with the bf wants. Is that girl bi? Is she in a really bad place in her relationship?

Allergy season sucks, I become a coughing, sneezing mess and can't function or sleep so long as anything green and living is within 5,000 meters from me
However, Claritin makes me drowsy, foggy minded and hungry as fuck.
Is there any way I can combat the side effects of these drugs?

There are non drowsy anti histamines. They cost more though

>>18128164
Fenofexadine (generic for Allegra) works wonders for me, but drugs are drugs so you'll probably just have to try every antihistamine until you find one that works.
Is there any ways to calm hypervigilance without drugs or alcohol?
Oh, An without going to a doctor and playing mind games talking about my feelings (I can do this for free with my girlfriend).
Alcohol is taking a toll on my body after the last couple years and It's starting to cause scarring on my liver

So is being socially awkward a good thing?
I can't tell so much at this point but it seems as if society has somewhat romanticized being socially awkward, autistic or having some form of mental disorder
What is a mental disorder anyway? If you pay attention to detail are you guilty of obsessive compulsive disorder?
If you are ambitious are you guilty of megalomania?

You can thank the pretentious fuckwits on tumblr for this
But, in the real world, this shit doesn't fly. If you're depressed or weird people will sense it and avoid you. Or even respond with disgust. Worst case scenario: they attack you.
Humans are magnetized to good feelings and success. If you exude these things, people will gravitate towards you. If you exude the opposite things, they will be repelled.
