I'm not sure that's what victim mentality means. Here's what wikipedia says:

"Victim mentality is an acquired (learned) personality trait in which a person tends to regard themselves as a victim of the negative actions of others, and to behave as if this were the case even in the lack of clear evidence of such circumstances. Victim mentality depends on habitual thought processes and attribution. In some cases, those with a victim mentality have in fact been the victim of wrongdoing by others or have otherwise suffered misfortune through no fault of their own; however, such misfortune does not necessarily imply that one will respond by developing a pervasive and universal victim mentality where one frequently or constantly believes oneself to be a victim.".

Victim mentality is the same as a victim complex, ie. a person playing the role of victim like the SJWs going out of their way to be offended. People who believe they are a victim. It's not being highly sensitive and thinking others are disparaging and looking down on you.

>a person playing the role of victim like the SJWs going out of their way to be offended
This is more of an offensive trait, since these kinds of people go out of their way to attack others.
I guess the way I thought about it is that I feel like a "victim" of a perceived mockery, when in fact nothing is happening at all - or even if they were it wouldn't really be a big deal.

>>18057566
This is textbook paranoia, not "victim mentality"

Look into cognitive therapy and anti-anxiety medication. If deemed necessary by a doctor maybe even anti-psychotics.

I have the same delusions and it's a pain in the ass but I just deal with them cognitively (meaning I just think about it for a second and remind myself that I'm not the center of the universe and have done nothing that would spark a laugh)

America to be quite honest, I knew someone who looked 90% like her, there were only a few differences. Main one being that she was a total bitch.

>>18057529
I know one girl who looks like her and she's Russian.

Use a hand bidet or even bucket to drip hotwarm water down your ass . Helps to stimulate you to shit like an enema but not as extreme. Also u need to clean ur ass anyways

Other than that. You have to start with your diet and exercise. I drink a couple fruit smoothies everyday with my vitamix. Mix strawberry and banana as a base then add anything else like carrots or flax seeds. You wonr taste them but you get the benefits.

I am a daily easy shitter now but normally i would take a shot evrry 2 or 3 days. Those would come out easily regardless though. But they come out long a d heavy

Stay hydrated, don't eat shit, but also in read in a book you're supposed to sit in more of a squat position and doctors recommend you shit with your feet on a little stool in front of the toilet

Oats.

I'm so desperate

Sure, why not?

What is this, the 70s?

If you're asking if fapping to loli hurts any real children, no it does not. If you are asking if it makes you a pedo, it's debatable but I'd say no. Especially if it's loli alone, with no feelings of attraction towards actual children, and you have additional, primary attraction to real post-pubescent women.

I have no idea what you mean by the "fight against pedos" though. Child molestation is probably illegal where you are and law enforcement is in charge of enforcing those laws.

This girl looks like someone who might lead a "refugees welcome" protest on a college campus or betray you in a student organization or job. Would not trust.

>>18057466
thats anne frank

>>18057471
Ah then so she probably would if she were around today. Overrated.

>>18057335
why, sure
On a side note, why are people here so afraid of deciding for themselves? I mean, that's your life and even if there are more intelligent/observant people on the internet, you are not giving them enough context to work with

How do you act around him? I am curious!

JUST FUCKING ASK IF HE WOULD WANT TO HAVE A CUP OF COFFEE WITH YOU SOME TIME GODDAMN SHIT

>>18057281
Elaborate.

Are you a student just looking for extra money or someone trying to eke out a living working retail?

I had a similar problem. It seemed to me, at one point in life, that there are 3 kinds of jobs:

1. Shitty retail and gastronomy jobs.
2. Demanding low pay jobs.
3. Demanding high pay jobs.

I seemed to be unable to even think of a job thats part time, or at least not demanding out of the ordinary (normal 40max hr work week, with no deadlines) that pays somewhere in middle...
Everything i saw was either a very demanding work, that payed a lot and was dependent on your skill set and luck, and very demanding jobs that payed really low, that dependent on your willingness to do the shitty job. I was baffled and had many problems in my life because i couldnt come to terms with this.
I just wanted a job to pay for my rent and food , that allows me to commit to my hobbies as much as it is possible , without having to make them into a profession. But i coudlnt find anything that didnt require some level of commitment from me, and wasnt totally shitty.

Fast forward 3 years of working a shitty high pay 70+hrs work week job later...
I now know which of my interests i want to make into a profession and i dont mind doing it all week if necessary to achieve my dreams and goals about it.
Try to go out in the world by any means, and your personality and wishes and priorities will eventually crystallize out .

Apart from that, there is that site : upwork.com , where you can find a lot of freelance jobs, done over the computer.. from no skill jobs like data entry , to jobs that require experience and skill in various fields, like programming or desing and etc. It really helped me later on to self sustain my self during the initial period when i started my studies, since i could make some money at home, with a textbook not far from me.

Fuck this is me right now. I'm making mid five figures and like my job alright, but the schedule is shitty lately (wierd hours, working weekends) and it feels hard to have a life outside it; I'm getting burnt out.
Is it too much to ask for a strict 9-5 that pays decently? I have a CE degree and currently do sysadmin type stuff.

That's what you get for stealing phones

Remember, sinners go to hell.

Fats are essential for your brain. And there's no other food source that have omega 3.

It has been a while since I did the research which convinced me to add omega 3 supplements to my diet, but I've been taking 3 grams of approx 70% EPA & DHA a day for a few years now.

I'm no nutritional expert and only a casual armchair scientist, but what convinced me is that a diet with a ratio high in omega 6, 9 and 12 compared to 3 tends to change the permeability of cell walls over time and the cell walls built from omega 6 fatty acids tend to be less permeable and flexible than those built on 3.

Because my diet is fairly western and 'typical' even though quite healthy my ratio of omega 3 to the other fatty acids isn't very high without supplementation. Do I feel a benefit? Ever so slightly better health in general, mostly lower joint pain and better recovery from heavy lifting and exercise. I hope that the benefits will be better vascular health though it is a long term thing really, like ask me when I turn 50 or something.

examine.com is quite good for reading collected evidence and studies on supplements.

>>18057162

Wait, so if omega 6 fatty acid decreases permeability in cells, doesn't that mean that gases cant pass though as easily cos the cell membrane and walls are too thick and rigid? But then isn't that like, really bad cos the cells wont be able to breathe properly?

I was like you a few years back. I'm still very friendly and do nice things but I learned to say no and assert my position.

>>18057047
You don't have to swing the pendulum all the way to being an asshole. In the long run being a nice guy will get you further and bring you more happiness than the opposite. You just have to decide on your boundaries and limits - the point at which you begin to feel exploited - and learn to protect yourself there.

As you have seen in other people, sometimes saying "No" is neither too difficult nor necessarily an unfriendly act. People will recognize the legitimacy of your limits when you assert them.

>>18057051
I definitely need to assert my position more. Depression/possible low t makes me just feel inferior. I just don't have enough energy to keep up an authoritative persona

>>18057008
option 1: experience (start small and repeat)
option 2: therapy

do not use alcohol/benzodiazepines

>>18057020
How do I start?

>>18057026
small, with a friend, roleplay, small stakes

how to make it easier:
-talk in third person
-no eye contact
-skip hard parts
-talk in past tense
