What is depersonalization?
>>
>>18093043
from good ol wiki: "Depersonalization or depersonalisation can consist of a reality or detachment within the self, regarding one's mind or body, or being a detached observer of oneself. Subjects feel they have changed and that the world has become vague, dreamlike, less real, or lacking in significance. It can be a disturbing experience."

I'm thinking of majoring in Electrical Engineering. what should I expect during college? Anything I should know beforehand?
11 posts and 2 images submitted.

Depends a lot on the school. There's usually some math and physics courses you need to do and a lot of people struggle with this because it's more theoretical. So get ready for that, it's good to know physics and math if you want to be a decent engi, don't be a fucking retard and learn that shit.

>inb4 math/physics people start sperging out about how engineering math/physics is sooo easy

Also, don't ever think "I don't have the brains for X". It's usually math/physics, if you sit your ass down and study and work on the problems you'll learn it. You don't have the right to say shit like that at least until you're working on a phd and even then it's debatable, masters degree is just about being disciplined and studying. Sure there are some people to whom it comes naturaly but none of that shit can't be learned just with hard work.

>>18093107
Alright thanks, the coursework seems to not very challenging. Is the job market doing fine?
>>
electrical engineers will always be in demand.
especially since robobobots are becoming more normal.
i'd probably get a computer science major tho. you can do a lot with a comp sci degree.

I am really fucken angry right now. I live with my parents and are married but my husband is in the military and is away. I own a business doing art and its really doing well I make 400-600 weekly with only working around 15 hours. My parents are always undermining it saying it I should focus on something else. My husband does not think of it too highly either he sees it as a nuisance. I am really proud of my work but my family is always constantly shitting on it. While I am working on commissions my parents will tell me to do different tasks to help them, I have set out times when I am available but they are constantly saying that my work can wait until later.

I am getting tired of how self absorb my parents are husband are it feels like they are constantly creating conflict for me to get a kick out of it. I am always doing what they want but my own needs are never met so I started this business in order to be able to become more independent and it seems like they are all pissing on me even more now.

I am just extremely frustrated.

Yeah Im making custom paintings of people pets I am making good money doing it and on the side I sell prints too. I do not have the health to work a normal job so I thought this be best because I can work when my health is good but my parents and husband keep eating up my time that I need to work. They all want me doing things for them constantly and never want to help me in return.

So I've been going out with this girl for almost three months now, and I was struggling with whether or not I should ask her about us being serious partners - you know, defining the relationship. I decided to postpone that, and, last friday, she asked me some questions to seemingly scan my opinion on open relationships.

"I watched this video on youtube about a couple that has an open relationship, it's pretty interesting". She asked what I thought about it, and I told her my first reaction to it is negative; I've not been in a serious relationship before and the longest one I had before her was about a month long.

"Well, I think I couldn't do that, being held up to just one person." I didn't answer after that, I kept quiet because I was burning up inside. It wasn't really rage, just shock at what I heard and a sense of impending doom.

Anyways, a week before that, I was introduced to this girl by a friend. One of them told me she was definitely into me, laughing at every joke, etc. I hadn't noticed because I was still in the middle of deciding to postpone my question about defining the relationship.

So, after that, she asked me to her birthday party, with just a couple of people that were my friends. I went there this monday, after my date had told me about the open relationship thing. We drank quite a bit - about three pints of beer - and ended up making out a bit twice, we didn't have much alone time with our friends there.

She mentioned something about us going out to drink some other day, which I don't really know if 'us' meant me and her or our friends as well.

The weird part is I thought doing this would make me feel like absolute garbage, like scum. I believe the fact that my date kind of dismissed the importance of our relationship has to do with that. This made me think of maybe going with the open realtionship stuff.


I don't really have a specific question for you guys (and gals) or anything, I just need some experience talk and some general advice on stuff like this. Thanks in advance.
>>
>Well, I think I couldn't do that, being held up to just one person."

Just drop your emotional attatchments to her. She's not good for a relationship, but she is good for a Pussy fuck.

In the future she might change her mind but right now she's just trying to "have fun"

Anyone else have a girlfriend who's sex drive is far higher than theirs? I genuinely feel bad for turning her down but she's way into it 65/70% of the time when i just wanna do my thing. A lot of the time when we chat online she's low-key transitioning the conversation into sex talk and it's boring to have to deal with.

Might be an issue of real sexual incompatibility, if it's really that much of a stretch then sit and reconsider the relationship,god forbid she tries to go get it somewhere else

>le communicate with her meme
yeah and then she gets fucking insecure because she thinks unless you want to fuck 100% of the time, then it means you don't find her attractive

and even in you explain to her that's not how it works, she will still feel insecure

hi, my cousin was kidnapped yesterday in ciudad juarez, mexico.
His mom got a call from the kidnappers asking for a ransom and was told not to talk to the police. Do you have any advice I could use? I'm desperate :(

>>18092914

Don't pay, otherwise you're just encouraging them and setting an example to other criminals that you pay ransoms and give in to extortion.

If you have to, let him die. This way you'll be setting an example that you do not give into extortion or pay ransoms, likely deterring other criminals from going after you or your family again. One dies so the others can live.

Also, dedicate your life afterwards to hunting them down and making an example out of them.

Do you have the money?

>>18092914
I don't know much about the topic anon, sorry. Take what I say with a grain of salt.

What I know is:
These groups sniff money in a family, then kidnap relatives of said family.
Of the cases that I know of (not in mexico), they return the person alive.
The issue being they tend to insist (kidnap again, at a later date) to get more money.

I have no idea about the police. I also don't know how the dealings proceed on such matters.

Just answering because I'm not seeing anyone taking up your call :\ . I totally don't feel qualified to answer this.
You should probably seek help for someone more qualified on a more informal note, support lines, friends in law-enforcement, relatives etc...
Good luck OP

What should I go for? Amalgam or white fillings? Which one is more durable, and lasts longer?

Lastly, what would you personally recommend?
16 posts and 2 images submitted.
>>
White fillings are much more expensive and only covered under dental for the front teeth that people will see. At least that's how my dental covered it.

So if you want a white filling on your molar be prepared to fork over a large sum of money.
>>
If your teeth are like 50% cavity like in the picture, I'd go for the amalgam because you don't want to have that whole mess replaced.

But if it's just a small filling get white. I had a couple tiny cavities and that's what I did.

Amalgam gasses out mercury.
It's the most toxic non radiactive substance known to humanity.

Composite fillings have BPA (Bisphonel A) in them and make you literally a homo.
BPA works like a bad, unnatural kind of estrogen in your body.

>MFW I see that people still put mercury in peoples mouth

So, I was on tinder and matched with this super cute boy. We started talking and we went from tinder to Snapchat. He said he didn't have any social media [obviously a lie since you have to have Facebook for tinder.(idiot)]

Anyways, I look him up on Facebook. (Not hard since we are both from the same town.) Everything looks normal... But wait... He has a gf! So, he tells me he is gay and not out though and he wants to go on a date. He says he is single. So my question is, should I bring it up before we meet and go on this "date," or should I wait and see how the date goes and what he says, and if he doesn't, then I should bring it up?

Tell his girlfriend and cut contact with him. He straight up lied to your face, is this really someone you want to be with?
>>
>>18092849
Like, I get that, but if he's gay and not out stuck in a relationship with a girl, then I could at least see what is up with that. I don't wanna be a crazy person what if she's like his beard, or they just broke up or something. It's pretty balsy to be on tinder in a smaller city where you grew up if since everyone knows everyone.
>>
>>18092852
No. Tell his gf and cut contact. Or go fuck him, since he's not gay.

Help me, /adv/.

I'm 18 years old and living in Texas. I really gotta get my ID but I don't have my social security card. I know the number, but my mom lost the card a while ago and never put any effort into getting it back. I don't have a school ID I can use, and while I do have health insurance and an ID for that, it's medicaid, so there's no date of birth on the card, and that's what really fucks me over.

I also have a ticket for trespassing, and I heard it can be used as a source of ID in a pinch, but I doubt the social security would accept it. It wasn't on the website. I tried calling them today about it, but they close really early on Wednesdays, so I was outta luck.

Anyway, with all this info, do any of you know what steps I can take from here? I also have a school record with my social on it, but it's from 2011, when I was in 7th grade, so I doubt it's usable in social security or at the DMV. Help a dude out, all I can do right now is jack off and hope my juicy semen forms into a new card, which never fucking happens, cus my sperm's just a hivemind of jackasses who won't help their daddy. The rascals.

I have a friend of mine that I really like, because of reasons im not gonna go into we can never be together and it hurts because we connect so well together. Anyway I literally had a dream last night of me and her just laying in my bed together, no sex, no nothing just laying there cuddling and just chilling. I have no idea why honestly but I think I love her. I dont know if its possible to fall in love before getting into a relationship but I think I might be. Before I got to know her more I had a lust since she is very attractive but now I think overtime that lust turned into love. I honestly rather just hangout with her and cuddle then actual want to have sex with her.

wanting to cuddle doesn't make it love. Though it depends on the definition. you clearly have some sort of feelings for her, or at least some perceived version of her.

>what does it mean

it means you're into a girl.
>>
>>18092776
Its more the cuddle but just to be with her is what I mainly want. Like the other day I asked her if she wanted to hangout, and me and her have hungout just us two at her house and mine plenty of times before but for whatever reason my heart was racing when I waited for a response like I was shaking in excitement which has never happened in the 1 year ive been talking with her. I know I like her alot but I think its starting to get deeper and deeper now
>>
>>18092780

doesn't really make a difference here if its love or projecting. all that matters if she is interested in you.

but since you said
>We can never be together for reasons i wont get into (re: she doesnt like you)

than there's no real point in making this thread, is there?

I am 30. I run my own business and can keep whatever hours I feel like. I always set my alarm for 9am M - F.

I usually go to bed anywhere between 12:30am and 1:30am.

I think I sleep well and don't wake up during the night, but I am always tired until the afternoon. Right now my eyes are heavy and I feel tired.....I could probably fall asleep if I went to bed, however, if I tried going to bed at 10pm tonight I would lie there for at least an hour and a half.

Do you think I could remedy this by gradually going to bed earlier, so that after a week or so, I am getting an extra 6-8 hours of sleep per week?

When I was employed I went to bed about the same time but work up at about 8am, so I was getting less sleep, but felt about the same.

growing up, more sleep is good, but less sleep is necessary. as you turn past 30 more sleep is necessary, but people still act like they're in their twenties.

a human can survive off of nothing but twinkies for many many many many many many years. but that doesn't mean he should. sleep is no different.

>i tried going to bed at 10

our bodies know when they're supposed to fall asleep and it takes some time to fix.

>i lied there for at least an hour and a half

good. cuz you're still getting at least an hour of extra sleep doing this. what id recommend is finding an audio book or radio play or a calm TV show that you can just listen to for an hour or so before drifting off. it can help.

id also suggest maybe taking a melatonin here and there. 1/4th of one usually does the trick for me

Completely cut out caffeine. Go to /fit/ read the sticky, particularly the part about what to eat.
Very important. Bunch of carbs and/or a nutrition deficiency can keep you up at night.

monitor your sugar intake and heavily cut down if its excessive

seriously, this will help heaps although prepare to get cravings like a bitch

I posted this on /an but I'm not getting any replies and I could realy use some advice on this if anyone has any.

I found a baby squirrel about 3 weeks old and I've bee having troubles with him aspirating the formula.I always make sure to hold him upsidedown to get the fluid out and i haven't had a problem with that. I've had him for about a week now and as of today I can here some clicking coming from him. Hes never made those sounds before but I've read not to jump the gun and to watch and see if it persist into tomorrow.

My question is, if it turns out to be pneumonia, what kind of medicine can I give him?
Unfortunately its illegal here to take care of orphaned squirrels and i would be afraid of what might happen if I take him to a vet. I will if absolutely necessary but if there's somthing I can do myself,id like to.

Any advice would be appreciated

About 36 hours ago I came accross some expired vicodin pills and figured I'd have myself a good ole time and popped about 10 of them in a few hours.

Now, me being an idiot and all, I also had a few drinks.

Long story short, the next day I vommited like hell and I'm worried my liver might be failing from acetomiphen OD + the alcohol I drank. I had a little under 4 grams of acetominophen from the pills. I've been reading and apparently the time I'm in is the "latent period" for liver failure. I feel mostly fine but I'm extremely paranoid, because I'm finally getting my life somewhat sorted and death by pills isn't where I wanna end up.

So am I being paranoid or should I go to the ER?

You're probably fine, then. Just pay attention, if you start getting very nauseous and drowzy or experience anymore vomiting or diarrhea, you might wanna head to a hospital. Better safe then sorry. You might also want to get checked for idiocy.

This, if it gets worse, go to a hospital. If it doesn't, kill yourself.
