Hey all, so I take a public speaking course at my university. My goal is to be a better public speaker, but I have a terrible anxiety problem. I can practice a speech countless times and still end up withering like a retard when I'm finally up there. I'm not the worst, but certainly not as good as some of my peers. Seriously, how can I become a better speaker? How do I shake these stupid nerves??

The bottom line is practice
That's the point of the course

But in the mean time remember that it's just a game
You're playing a game, they're playing a game
Look at them, sitting there, not doing anything
They're playing a role
Like you are
It's like charades or anything else
Nobody there is "real"
They're all acting some way because of the circumstances

I pubclicly speak as part of my job in a military environment.

Practice. Taking a slow, deep breath before hand helps but really the most important and only thing is practice.
>>
>>18087959
Shit anon, you're right. Maybe I should stop taking it so seriously. I'm a bit of a try hard...meanwhile those who do it effortlessly make it seem so easy. Maybe I should think of it more as a game.

I will continue to practice though. I had a speech today that went...meh. Not terrible nor profound. Rather blah. I've been beating myself up over it all night ugh. I practiced for days leading up to this moment and it was so fucking mediocre.

Gf complains I don't last long enough. Been trying to edge for a month, but I have no self control. Tips?

Have a bottle of lotion.
Masturbate.
Take a welding rod and insert into urethra.

Can't ejaculate due to obstruction.
After about 5-6 times, hole is wide enough to produce massive load.
If gf is not satisfied with volume dump her ass. In a river. Wrapped in a carpet.
>>
>>18087944
Just fuck her twice then. I cum on like two minutes. Then I rest, chat for a bit, and go back in for seconds.

This question is asked far too often. I shouldn't be the only one to figure this out...
>>
>gf complains

Firstly, sorry you had to experience that.

Okay, solutions. Cock ring, cock rings help a bit, they force more blood into the shaft and increase size a bit as a result. You can try pills like extenze too. Or you can try a penis enlargement pump, it basically draws fat into the penis and decreases sensitivity by a huge factor, also increases size (especially the medical pump kind). However, there are people who say penis pumps can screw up your dick, I've used em and haven't had a problem really, but it's a possible side effect(?) Another alternative and probably the healthiest of all, is simply stop fapping, if you do so, even if you do so rarely, stop all together. You should also try stimulating the muscle that allows you to discontinue your pee stream, stimulate it every now and then.

Good luck.

So i have been in a pattern for a while were all i want to do is sleep in the morning and it takes me a while before i become productive. I feel my life needs a shake up so whats the best way to change this about myself?

I have the same problem on weekends but not on weekdays, when you don't have a reason to wake up you don't really get to it.
I recommend setting an alarm on your phone for when you want to wake up, set the volume high, use a song that starts pretty fine but gets pretty loud after a few seconds; there you go, you now have to wake up fast in order to prevent your neighbors from complaining.
>>
Consider yourself lucky.

If I wake up too early I feel physically ill. Bad enough that if I so much as take a sip of water I run the risk of vomiting. I also get really bad drymouth and want that sip of water. This happens until the point where my body says its time to wake up and then I start feeling better.

Doesnt matter how much sleep I get. The only thing that matters is the time. I can get 2 hours sleep and wake up a 11 and only feel tired or get 8 hours sleep and wake up at 8 and feel like shit.

I asked this girl who i text alot if she wanted to start a streak with me over snapchat and she read it but did not respond. Its not like i only text her, but she texts me first about the same. Should i say anything or just not talk to her because she is a b*tch

I can't connect with people

I'm 21, people just don't generally like me. I keep an average body language, I have a flowing conversation and make sure I don't do anything autistic. Just no one seems to one to be around me.

Never had a close friend cause as soon as a girl came in, I never saw them again except on facebook.

In about 5 jobs I've had, no one really wanted to have anything to do with me outside of small talk

I've been to several meetups, everyone has their own group of people and I've talked and interacted but again, no one wants anything to do with me. No one returns texts.

I've tried making friends around common interests, same problem. I theorize that everyone is just too busy in their life to invest in someone else.

Generally it's fine cause I just work and go online but it aches when no one is on my side or I have anyone to vent to.

I've really tried. I just don't know what to do from here

SSRI's don't help, I've looked on reddit and people were rude making passive aggressive faces (I could tell when they use :O when saying it's not that hard) saying I should look on facebook or go outside and try. A few games (like Rocket League) I don't play well with someone then they say I'm the one that sucks when I say that I'm only a decent team player and the other guy wouldn't work with me

I've also recently had IRC interactions where someone came out of the blue to be rude to me when I was talking alongside everyone and I didn't even say anything much.

I have no leads or ideas.

Again, it's not so bad but when I have no foundation where I can say "Fuck you" and go to my own personal friend(s) that like me and would back me up

Anon, you sound exactly like one of my friends, except that he has friends.
He asks me "How do I talk to girls?" and often complains about people not wanting to interact with him or being fake with him for (insert reason).
The conclusion that I've reached from my personal experience of living in this planet is that people are superficial as fuck and always have ulterior motives.
If you can't draw peoples attention, positively btw, then they won't want anything to do with you.
My friend for example looks like a NEET who spouts autistic shit from time to time so people won't really want anything to do with him.
Improving yourself might work. Then again the problem might not be you but the people that you're trying to befriend, can't really judge without context...

No, I'm in uni, and I have a decent amount of friends. I feel like sometimes they can be a bit condescending, because they think I'm a weirdass, but I'm 99% sure it's just me overreacting. I used to talk to a few girls, but it kinda fizzled out since every time I meet them it's just awkward silence. I have social anxiety (not bad, used to be much worse) and I suffer from anxiety (like I am right now), but my reputation isn't really that bad.

I just really fucking hate myself. I am constantly surprised by the amount of attention I get and the amount of friends I have. Nothing seems to ever work. I am too much of a sperg since I never talked to girls in high school that when they started talking to me I was too much of an autist to know how to flirt (I remember when they'd give me hugs I'd stand there like a fucking tree) or move in. I want to shoot my mirror image every time I walk in the bathroom. I'm not a cuck so I'm not suicidal (yet) but it's eating me alive.

So I have a bit of a problem I guess, I'll greentext it but they'll also be a TLDR for the lazy people.

Also I hope this makes sense, I'm not the best with words so if anything needs clarification feel free to ask

>New semester
>going to all my new classes
>Barely anyone I know in most of them
>get to my English class
>Actually some good friends and alot of people I know
>one of my friends knows this girl in our class
>she starts talking to me often and flirting
>my friend notices and starts to get info and help me out
>tells me that he asked some of her friends and they said she liked me
>He's constantly trying to get me to ask her out and such
>She starts to flirt more and more even to the point of saying "anon we should chill"
>friend tells all my other friends in the class that she likes me
>now all of them constantly are telling me to ask her out and such
>I just say no because she's pretty popular and sporty and I'm a loser who just played vidya and messes with computers
>also I'm bipolar and have some other problems but don't take any medication
>Never had a girlfriend never even hugged or kissed girl
>not interested in sex I just want someone who won't leave me once they find out how fucked in the head I am

TLDR: popular girl like me and people are trying to get us together but I'm messed up mentally and interested in a serious long term relationship

Stop worrying about a long term relationship. Worrying if a girl you're dating is going to be with you long term almost always guarantee she won't. Girls hate feeling pressured. Worry about dates, not girlfriends.

Also sort yourself out. Focus on improving yourself, don't stress about this girl. You don't have to do anything.
>>
>never had gf
>girl likes you
>want long term gf
anon this is seriously the best chance you have
don't feel like you're lowering your expectations, treat it like the beginning of your dating life
and if this girl is great maybe it will turn into a long term relationship
>>
>>18087775
If she likes you enough, and provided she's naturevenough, she'll turn a casual relationship into something bigger herself. A lot of serious relationships start out less than serious. Date her, anon. See where it goes. Dating her now isn't going to rob you of the ability to date people in the future.

Either she is telling the truth and there is no way you will get involved with her or she has constructed (consciously or not) a personality around being asexual, in which case she has some significant mental issues and you are better off not getting involved. Go meet some new people.

Britfag again here, I posted here about my mum yesterday but I'll try again.

Basically my mum is an alcoholic and her upbringing mixed with this and choosing to do this is causing her own self inflicted problems like fights, arguements etc. and can cause the rest of the family problems either with her abuse or the people that she has upset starts on us as well.

She has no self control and needs forced help for any chance at a normal life again, what can I do?

Does she acknowledge that she is an alcoholic? Or at least acknowledge that she has a problem? Does she has other mental problems as well?

The best thing you can do is to let her know that you'll help her, by whatever means. Getting her into AA might be the best first step.

Also, as you said, because she has no self control, you shouldn't be mad at her for binge drinking or falling back. Alcoholism is an illness.

Good luck.

Smashed the shit out of my thumb half an hour ago while hammering, my nail is beginning to turn purple and I still have a dent in my thumb. Anything I can do now to mitigate pain/swelling in the next few days?

Cold and compression.

This might be necessary to avoid the nail popping off your thumb if it swells too much.

I know this is probably just a weird coincidence, and it doesn't mean anything, but it's odd enough that it's been bugging me all day, and now I turn to all of you to tell me that it doesn't mean anything.

This morning, at work, I found out that some seemingly random person had accessed my company email account and had sent and received a few emails over the weekend. After contacting our IT department, I was told that it was accessed by someone at one of our company's other locations in a town called McAllen in Texas, whereas I'm based in Portland, OR. He said it was probably just a weird wire cross/glitch in Outlook and he must have gotten logged into my account by mistake, no big deal.

While I was talking to IT, I got a phone call with an area code from my hometown in Southern California, which I ignored because I was busy and didn't recognize the number. Some time later, I did a Google search for the number to see who it was that had called me. It was the number for a local bicycle repair shop I had never heard of, run by a guy whose name sounded vaguely familiar. So I searched that guy's name in Google, and found out that someone with that exact same name died seven years ago in the town of McAllen, Texas.

I know it's all a weird coincidence, but I needed to share that with someone, and I have no friends. So feel free to call me a faggot or whatever; or what's more likely to happen, ignore the thread entirely, since I'm not a teenager with girl problems.

Have IT record the error to ensure a paper trail in the event of identity theft or misuse.

You know just in case.
>>
>>18087538
why, that seems logical. I mean, people in one area share some common traits and thus are more likely to act similar. So that implies that it's more likely to find two people with the same name in the same city, than in two completely different ones. Also, the last name spreads with the family and the family likely stay mostly in one place.

Also, nice story. million times better than that "how to talk to that girl/boy" spam here

IT probably had to open a ticket for it.

I was just trying to google this, but I couldn't think of a term to describe it.

Is this a normal ability? From a young age I've been able to hold my breath and kind of push all the blood to my head and face to turn my face all red and make my brain feel all numb and tingly and "like it's gonna explode". Would you call this a head rush?

I'm a 21 year old guy and I don't do it often since it's probably unhealthy in some way. But I've realised lately I enjoy semi gently strangling myself while I orgasm, and this head rush thing feels similarly good... Err. I guess my main question is what is this called, and is it dangerous for my health? Like does it kill brain cells or something?

You'll always get attached to people you're having sex with. You're sharing an intimate moment with somebody you think is really attractive and when you have sex you both feel like you're really into each other.

To not get attached from something like that is impossible.

It makes more sense to stop wasting your time and instead just get a boyfriend instead of doing this. The boyfriend sex is hotter because it's with somebody who's really into you on levels a casual encounter doesn't have. And that makes the sex way hotter. You don't have to worry about getting attached or whatever because it's your boyfriend. Get attached as much as you like.

It's better to get experience with boyfriends anyways. You want to go through all these relationships with different boyfriends to get enough experience to make the relationship work by the time you meet Mr Right.

To not want a boyfriend because you don't want to get attached or commit to anything makes little sense. If it's somebody you really like as a boyfriend then you'll absolutely love committing to spending more time with them. It'll be a good thing.

So yeah go get a boyfriend.

So how would breaking up work? Are you able to stop living together? You might want to investigate what your options there are going to be first.
