This is a blue board which means that it's for everybody (Safe For Work content only). If you see any adult content, please report it.

I´ve had troubles my whole life getting to sleep, i used to think it was because of the ritalin i was forced to take from a young age. But it keeps persisting through my adult life and i´ve quit ritalin since i was 15.

I´ve had some traumatic things happen to when i was pretty young so i guess that doesn´t help too.

psychiatrist once told me with the amount of trouble sleeping i classify as severe insomnia, but psychiatrists just wanna earn dosh so who believes them anymore lol. Not like i can take psychiatrist prescribed sleepmeds the rest of my life anyway.

I´ve tried most common things like lavender, melotonin, valerian and the like, maybe i should mix some natural meds together for increased effect, don´t know if there´s any risk involved to that.

Any tips for sleeping would be greatly appreciated

I broke up with my girlfriend a month ago. She is a single mom, we dated for 5 years before we called it quits. Her daughter was 11 at the time we first got together. Her daughter and I got really close and became good friends. She was very upset when we broke up.

Even though I broke up with her mom, she still wants me to talk to her and has been asking me to do things with her. I don't want to cut her off and hurt her feelings so I've been contemplating on how I'm supposed to approach our relationship now. Now that I don't date her mom, our dynamic is not the quite the same. I was never her stepdad or anything although I guess I was a fatherly figure to her since she doesn't have a father but I'm in my mid-30s and she's 17 so it feels weird having her text me all the time now that the context is gone.

Is it okay to be like this? Should I try and gently ween her away from me or should I just let it be?

It's only as weird as you make it. You're someone she looks up to and respects. There's no reason you can't continue to do that just because your relationship with her mother has come to an end.
>>
Nah, she's old enough to decide who she wants to be around.
>>
just let it be m8 she just wants someone she can see as a father figure

My group of friends has this dude in it that has been my friend for a long time, but I frequently get into arguments with him, and it has led to him not being included on a lot of group vacations, because I'm normally the guy that ends up organizing these things.

He's in a really dark spot and has started acting like a total douche to everyone, and we have another group trip coming up, but one of our friends insists this guy can't come.

How do I proceed on this trip without making it look like it was my idea not to invite him along? I'm tired of taking the blame for it when really it's the whole group that doesn't want him joining.

that's one of lifes little lessons. I have no idea what you should do but I always feel sorry for the odd man/woman out
>>
>>18605881

I feel kinda bad for him too. I suggested we invite him but at least two people said they wouldn't come if he did, and I don't exactly want to spend a full vacation with him screeching and yelling and being a dick to everyone.
>>
Try to make it about him. Not about you guys going without him. It's obvious something's going on, so maybe insist he take time to take care of himself. Try to reassure him that you guys care about him and want what's best. Maybe even hint that he's not the same person and that collectively as a group, you guys have noticed. That way it won't sound mean but more of a helping hand. You could even try saying that the concern is that he wouldn't have as much fun as the rest of you guys.

My boyfriend doesn't feel the need to lose weight because I find him attractive, but being obese is unhealthy. He thinks he's fine though because he plays sports recreationally. Wat do? He should lose about 80-90 pounds desu

You either like him for who he is, leave him for who he isn't, or spend the rest of your time together lying to yourself
>>
>>18605747
He should lose 80 to 90 pounds holy Fuck. Well if you're attracted to him thats great but that seems like a lot of weight to lose. Perhaps a change of diet?

As long as you guys are cool but if its really an issue you should at least try and help him with it. If he doesn't want to then not sure what i can tell you to convince him.
>>
>>18605747

sorry that was kind of blunt, maybe you start by having him cut out processed foods and stick to raw food and preparing his own meals. If he doesn't want to do that, that's where my cynicism comes from.

Hello someone please

It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.

Lift you motherfucker. Your body is your most precious possession so don't let it wither away. Lift and witness the fire and beauty of life which nature has bestowed upon you!

Is it possible to be so much of a perfectionist that instead of being super in control of your life you're so obsessed that you're paralysed and can't get anything done out of fear of it not coming out the exact way you want it to?

Same problem, bumping for help.

Only thing I know is that I'm so scared to be happy (at the point that I actually feel bad physically) that my perfectionism is probably acting in between, to avoid me reaching happiness.

No OP, that's being lazy not a perfectionist

Perfectionists do
Lazy people are lazy, out of fear or out of will.

Lazy is lazy, you can't change that


Stop the excuse

After a year of dating a chick I've really been pondering just leaving her.

Like many young women are today, she is a SJW, but even worse a bedroom one. On the outside a timid and shy girl, on the other a person who believes she is oppresed.

It wasn't all bad though until she made a new lesbo liberal arts major friend. I think this friend is slowly convincing her to make her distance herself from me.

What i fear is that I'll just end up with another lost cause and is it worth being in relationships at all

What should I do /adv/ break up with her or try to get her to boot the friend

I was dating this girl that I got along with really well, we made a bunch of plans together and instead she just broke off and started volunteering at a horse ranch and spends all her free time there mucking and doing chores with the animals. It's basically an obsession now, she doesnt go out or socialize. she just goes and visits the horses. I go sometimes and there arent any hot dudes there or anything so I don't get it. I started raising an eyebrow once she said she'd put the horses over our theoretical family.

She made no indication of having this obsession the first year and a half into the relationship. And my friends keep telling me to watch out for "horse chicks."

Seriously what the fuck is the deal?

Why do some people obsess over cars? Why do some people obsess over sports? People have their interests, if you don't think it's normal for someone to have an interest in something, then you must be the most boring person in the world
>>
Yep she will be one of them chicks you see on the internet that is sucking off a horse.
>>
It is not just women anon, there are Men who are obsessed with horses. Actually I would say Men are more obsessed with Horses than Women.

Horses are a cult.

How are you supposed to cope with PTSD?

Therapy is best. With a professional.

Failing that, talking about the incident to a supportive lay person, a lot, until you have said everything you can say about it. Until you are bored with it. It will take months and months.

I had to see a therapist to even get diagnosed in the first place. It didn't really help. I can't afford it anymore anyway.

I've tried that. No one particularly wants to hear, and even if they do it just makes you feel horrible to go over bad memories.

I currently use music, drugs, food, and masturbation to cope at the moment. I've been trying to replace food with exercise though.

How do you make working 10 hours a day liveable?

I'm 20 years old, and I've been doing this since I was 18.

I'm thinking about just killing myself as I can't find friends in any of my co-workers, but I'm currently too ignorant to what my life could become to do so.

I've never had a girlfriend before either.

Has anyone here ever successfully made friends outside of their job? How did you do it?

Finding friends is hard just look at what your interest are and look online for groups the share said Interest and may hold meetings etc ergo get friends or an online friend is still a friend
>>
>>18605486
Most of my friends are from when I was a kid, I know what you mean about co workers. Most just aren't friend material. You must have a tone of cash, go traveling? Join a local sports team or some form of club? I know times an issue for you but if you look around there's got to be something you can do
>>
>>18605504
You're right.
I think I'll never really get to have enjoyable face-to-face human interaction ever again, but that's why I'm grateful for the advent of the internet.

It's hard to only speak through text though.

It's like there's no true replacement for speaking to a good companion in reality, but I'll have to get used to it.

I have no friends, no one to talk to.
People were mean to me at school (although, I don't have nobody in my life, so nobody can be mean to me).
I used to be the victim.

I don't know what to do. I wake up the morning, I feel resentment and lonely, I just eat and sleep.

Try to swallow your resentment and make some friends elsewhere. It's the only way.

wanted to write this answer for you on /b/ but the thread timed out. If by some amazing conicidence it wasn't you posting almost exact same topic with the same picture, ignore this:
if you play the lottery and expect to win, you are 1: clinically verifiable mentally challenged
2: gonna be dissapointed every week for a long time (unless you are that 1 in a million, which we will assume you aren't, for the sake of this argument)

If you play and don't expect to win (which some people do for legitimate reasons i do not care to explain right now) you don't get dissapointed every week, you confirm your prediction you won't win and feel good about yourself for not thinking you will win, and you might win a small pot like 200$ or something and it's gonna make your day.

People can only be mean to you if you show yourself to them.
I know hiding yourself from people isn't great either, but it's better then being depressed how shitty people can be.
And when you recognize the right person, slowly open up. you might end up with an amazing friend. sure worked for me.

I'll post a second response that is more suitable for the specific question you posted here.
>>
>Get a job
>Set life and career goals for yourself
>Make friends and build relationships along the way

What you put into life is what you get out of it. Nothing good is going to come from sitting alone in your room all day.
