Who here knows someone that killed themselves?
If so, how hard was it to get over? How did it effect you?
I know this is a really jokey topic but if you're not gonna be serious please just ignore this.

I had a friend hang themselves many years ago.
>If so, how hard was it to get over? How did it effect you?
You don't get over it, you suppress and ignore it to try and not think about it. It is an extended grief that lasts much longer than a normal death. It stopped causing me grief and invading my thoughts once I became extremely blunt and jaded from living a hard life, nowadays only people I let in can get to me emotionally. Otherwise I don't feel for people. For most people the grief doesn't leave, as I said you just have to try to ignore it happened.

Suicides are said to on average directly fuck up on average six peoples lives, but suicidal people general don't feel they have anyone who cares.

I really badly want to kill myself and I want one extremely close friend who's talked to be about it a lot and she promised that if I do it she will too. Do you think she'd actually do that?
>>
>>18624497
Depends on the friend's mental state, but consider if you have any family at all they will get ruined too. I once had a super close friend, we dated for a long time after being friends for years. That ended with a very bitter break up recently. When ever they said they would kill themselves I said if they did I would too, I sincerely meant it and would have. But again, I am not your friend so I can't tell you what they think or feel deep down.

If you are under thirty you shouldn't even consider it yet, that is when doors start to close.

Kissless 18 year old virgin here. I've started hanging out with this girl, who I initially thought wasn't interested, now I'm sure she is. She's been with a couple guys and one of them was a much older, ripped, funny black guy who is supposedly a sex God. She's really in touch with her sexual side and taller than me. This all makes things very intimidating for me. We can hold conversation really well when we're together, but I don't know how to flirt or get physical (and I'm also a fuking beta). Any advice or thoughts you could share with me on this whole situation?

You're in over your head. My first sexual experience was with a 5 year old, well-adjusted, very attractive and experienced girl.
You won't know what you're doing and it'll be awkward as hell at times but don't let that ruin the excitement. Go for it but don't expect to blow her mind. Just enjoy it

Lately, noticed something about myself that would be rather disturbing. The reason I dont like socializing, flirting or romance is because I actually detest and hate people. This means everyone, either I am impartial or pissed off at someone. No other state exists. I like people getting hurt, I want to see peoples lives getting ruined, I wish the whole would die off. No edge, these are my genuine feelings; these traits are new and I dont know how they came to be, but here we are. I feel hatred, sometimes too much to control and I need to vent off (I dont). I fantasize about violence, I like it.

How do I reverse all of this? I dont take anti depressive medication anymore, but I am still socially isolated. Is this an onset of sadism or sociapathy and why would it happen?

Probably a product of your isolation, as I'm facing the same dilemma, while under the same circumstances.
Could also be a product of your upbringing, which would then make sense for it to be something along the lines of ASPD (just an anti-social personality, not necessarily aspd itself)

Moral disengagement is an achievement. Just maintain appearances and act cautiously and you're gucci.

About the violent fantasies, that could just be out of boredom, or perhaps you observe violence in video games, gore threads (or whatever), or you're just pushing your imagination outside the bounds of comfort. If you decide to act on these fantasies, remember: it's only a crime if you get caught.

I've been a carpenter for five years now after being denied university because I failed physics and maths.

Now I've settled down and I registered for a correspondence course in biology, zoology and geography because I was good at landy things at school.

Please tell me what job I should take after(if) I get my degree in this course. I'm looking for something where I don't really have to think too much because I am slow, just monotonous routine work is fine.

I don't want to be stressed out and running about everywhere, I would like to find a job that doesn't have time constraints

I might seem a bit too ambitious though so its fine even if its a small job as long as I can survive with the salary it gives me.

I hate the looks that people give me when I say my profession; their behaviour changes to treating my like filth and when I try to say that they shouldn't push me around they just say that maybe i should've studied harder in school and everyone laughs.

I don't care even if I don't get a job after this as long as I can say " hey you can't fuck with me now that i've got a degree in three different fields."

Alright /adv/, I have a problem and wonder if you might know what to do about it.

I am a very neurotic person, always thinking about what could go wrong and making sure that won't happen. Every time I leave the house, I go back a couple of times to check if I really locked the door and turned of the lights. Every time someone invites me for something, I am reluctant to promise them I can be there for fear of double appointments. I even check my own phone number or my employer's every time people ask for it to make sure I don't accidentally give them a wrong one. Staring at a unfinished e-mail for half an hour or more to find any typo or other mistake is not uncommon. I touch my pockets all the time to see if my keys and wallet are still there.

None of this would be so bad if it actually works, but it does not (except for the pockets part). I keep sending messages with mistakes that lead to misunderstandings. I keep accidentally making double appointments and even forgetting people's birthdays. Earlier this summer, I messed up a job interview because I wasn't 100% sure of not having any plans in some week.

None of this has ruined my life yet, but it certainly ruins my mood and my ability to relax. It sure doesn't benefit my relationship either. Part of it just boils down to personality about little can be done. I guess I have two questions:
1. How do I stop worrying about what I could do wrong and quadruple-checking everything all the time?
2. How do I make sure all this compulsive behaviour actually serves me and prevents the problems it seeks to prevent?

As much as the two options contradict each other, I am fine with whichever one is more realistic.

Do you keep a planner? That'd probably good for dealing with double appointments and scheduling mishaps. Plenty of calendar apps for that. Just put events into it the second you learn about them.

As for relaxing in general meditation might help. There's a lot of materials online for it but basically you just sit for about half an hour each day and try to focus on your breath. If you keep it up it works well for anxiety, at least in my experience.

If you're interested I found this book pretty good on the subject. Some parts get a little religious/new-agey for my taste, but the practice tips are good.

I use a planner, and it mostly works. The only catch with that is the kind of situation when I get called up for work on the middle of the road and have to make a wild guess about my availability, as I am using the device I can use to check or make a note of the day to call.

As for mediation, it didn't work much if by meditation you mean doing breathing excercises while sitting in a lotus position, but things like writing down my thoughts or listening to some meditative music while working with my hands at least helped to calm me down. Unfortunately, they did not change my neurotic tendencies by much.
>>
>>18624429
Can you put the phone on speaker mode to check while calling? Or is it more you don't want to be looking at it while driving?

Sorry to hear the meditation didn't work out, I suppose it does depend on the person. Out of curiosity what were the issues you ran into when trying it?

Employer is jacking up health insurance rates again, beginning next month. To insure me and my wife, I need to enroll in the Family plan, which has gone from 150/month in 2013 to 300/month in the last half of 2017 (was 250/month for the first half). There is no sign of slowing, as retired people are allowed to continue paying with employer contributions.

So I'm looking into alternatives. Stumbled onto Liberty Health Share. This image is a little outdated, but if you aren't over 65, the rates are the same.

Anyone have any experience with these guys?

Depends on what job you can apply for and what lifestyle you have.
Use google to find out how much people spend aprox. in your area/city, look into bills from your parents and then do thesimple math as if you were living alone,add more money on your end number for just in case and you are good to go.
>Also i would advise you to stay more with them and work along the way, save up and then move out.

It will be much easier then starting from 0, and you wont risk the chance of going back after you miserably failed.

Getting into relationship with someone with same goals will help you out a lot, since you can both split the costs and help eachother out.

Check Craigslist for rooms to rent. It's whatever an apartment/house would cost divided by the number of tenants. So if you've got a 4 bedroom there for 2000/month you would only be paying $500 each and then maybe another 50-75 each for utilities depending on you guys.

Confront your mistake and solve it.

You've demonstrated you're not very trustworthy
Fucking up and putting in the wrong gas is not the issue, lying and trying to cover it up is the big issue and now nobody will trust you for a while

I work in animal husbandry, around feed and bedding and shit dust. When I first started, I sneezed constantly, now I've developed a mucousy cough. Even when I'm not there my nose clogs up with hard dark mucous all day and even after clearing out I still can't smell, I've lost near all my ability to smell since starting this job a couple months ago. Should I care and go to the doctor, or just suck it up? I know one woman there who said she had the same issues when she started and wanted to get them fixed but didn't have the money, otherwise it doesn't sound like any of my coworkers have had trouble with it. I seriously only smell now when I'm cleaning out a flooded cage full of dead rats, otherwise I smell nothing all day, food has lost most of its taste, lol I've lost weight just from no longer even getting the appeal of food.

It sounds pretty obviously like an allergy - that would explain why some workers get it and others don't. Over the counter hay fever pills might help, but they're not designed for long-term use. A GP could send you to an Allergist who could test to see what among the several things you're inhaling is the culprit, and you could be desensitized to it.

But this really looks like a deal-breaker case, where you'd have to look for another job that doesn't expose you to whatever the culprit is.

We can hardly see anything on that pic.If it doesnt hurt and its only spot where you have it, then its probably nothing.
If it gets bigger over time or becomse a wound, seek more help, otherwise forget about it.

A true friend would tell his friend if he thinks that a wedding is uncalled for. Maybe this will be a wake up call for him, maybe it wont.

But at least you'll have tried. Go for it. Be persuasive and honest about the whole thing.

Dont mention your dj or the clothes, they really dont matter.
