I'm worried about a friend who takes medicine for a deadly illness that causes her to generally be racked in pain. If she doesn't take her medicine, she will likely die in a matter of a month or so. Her medicaid was shut off due to bullshit reasons involving a job, and they're having her go through the months-long process to reapply again, but she only has about a half of a month of medicine left, and she needs to see the doctor to get it represcribed. Is there some sort of temporary and fast thing she can apply for to get her medicine and doctor visits until medicaid pitches back in? America, btw.

Yeah you call a doctor and pay the full price which is like $200.
>>
>>18716672
If she could do that, I wouldn't be on here asking about it. I can't afford to help her either, unfortunately. Her total price of medicine a month is around twice as much as I make a month, not even counting the doctor's visits. She started a new job so she has less than 100 to her name, too.

This

Feel totally lame about myself because I'm in my 30s now and yet to know what the hell I'm doing as far as jobs/career etc kind of goals. Not to mention a lot of it being overwhelming and having lots of things be basically against you like how employers just want the most perfect candidates and aren't really willing to train or anything and expect someone out of college to have tons and tons of experience. I mean I did go to college and graduated years ago but other than that not much has happened as far as accomplishments in that area nor am confident that I even know or even remember enough.

Hi, I am interested in this chinese girl I met recently. After knowing her for a short time I knew I wanted more than friendship and kind of asked her to be my girlfriend (it was a little awkward). She didn't respond negatively but made it clear enough that she didn't know me well enough. I understood it and accepted the rejection but I tried to keep being friends. I kept texting her and being sensitive to her emotions. I realized this was beta orbiter status and trying to stick around wouldn't make her change. forced myself to ignore her and wait for her to initiate. I became terse in my responses and stopped initiating conversations. She started texting me and suggested we get coffee on Thursday! She's sometimes unaware of our customs, but I previously explained this was a romantic gesture so I think she understands. I have no expectations but I am excited to see her face again with the possibility of a relationship.

I want her to desire me. Ideally, she should be at least as interested in me as I am in her. She texted me after setting the date for coffee and I haven't responded or initiated since. I don't want to give her my interest too easily, but I also don't want her to get bored of me either. I know ignoring women doesn't help attract them, but neither does showering them with attention. How do I strike a balance? Should I stop texting her until after we get coffee?

Lol. Are you 16?

You never ever talk about relationship or love as a boy. All you had to do was to simply ask her on date. Until she brings the subjects like gf/sex/relationship questions herself, all you have to do is to keep asking her on date, flirting and trying to cuddle the bitch and possibly escallate it to sex.

Playing hard to get is valid strategy, but not being retarded and simply not playing mind games is also very valid and adult way on how to do relationships.

Pic related. Talk and date the bitch.

I'm a 21 year old autismo. Working on it so give me good advice.

That stuff won't work with this one. She's a virgin and chinese. They are much more conservative about sexuality. I dont think shes been kissed and she said shes never done anything with anyone of either gender and was questioning her sexuality in front of me.

We went out on a walk and i tried putting my arm around her but she wouldnt let me. She let me put my hand on her leg while we were watching a movie, but after a certain point I think I was making her uncomfortable. She's not very experienced so it makes sense that she feels nothing. Her body just doesnt have a sexual association with that stimuli. She lets me get close to her she just doesnt react positively or negatively. another night we stayed up until 2 am talking with my head hovering an inch next to hers while we sat on a couch. I think she was using girl logic to convince herself nothing was happening.

How to I deal with being a literal narcissist? Not in the sense that I'm proud or full of myself, but that I legitimately want to fuck myself really badly. I'm sexually attracted to my own body, and I fap to pictures of myself. I also am in love with my own personality. Any advice on how to stop this? I don't even know how this started.

Is it a bad thing? Are you open about it at all, or if you are do people find it annoying? Do you care what people think about it? If not then maybe you should just enjoy it, I mean it doesn't sound too bad.

I'm super ashamed of it, haven't told a soul except for you guys. There's a lot of downsides to a "relationship" like this, too. It's physically impossible to fuck yourself, and I can't exactly have a conversation with myself. I really wanted to start a family and nurture an authentic, natural relationship, but compared to myself, no one else comes close. One big factor as to why I like myself is that my physique satisfies my own fetishes. I'm bisexual, but I have yet to find a man or woman with such a specific desirable body such as my own.

How do I jump back in the saddle? And if I do start working on this project again, how do I maintain momentum? I always procrastinate and feel like I can't do anything, but working on that project made me realize that isn't true. How do I turn that silly child's dream into a reality?

True motivation comes from focused attention and ultra-desired outcomes. You have to WANT it, that end result, more than you reasonably should. That's how people keep motivated. Just staying focused, and dreaming of that sweet, sweet outcome.

As for getting back in, solve the problem that made you quit. Don't give up anymore, keep hitting that wall with your head until it cracks. Trust me, the euphoria you'll get from finally fixing that issue and knowing you can move on will be enough to push you farther.

I basically just have to want it more than anything else in the world, right? I know I CAN do it. I have all the tools necessary to get it done. I let one stupid thing get in the way.

I think the most annoying aspect of this is that whenever I'm at work or doing something else, I'm motivated to work on it. But when I get in front of the computer, I get distracted and don't have motivation.

I think I'm gonna make a list of tasks and checkpoints and set a timer. I have to do one hour of work each work day. If I can work eight hours for someone else, I can surely put in an hour for myself.

If you're clinically autistic, there's no hope for you.

If you're self-diagnosed, then you have a chance. Just give into peer pressure whenever anybody interacts with you. That's it.

Anons, I need serious help but I don't even know where to start.
After 2 years of failing at college and having no motivation whatsoever I've finally faced the fact that I'll never achieve a high education and the concept of spending 6+ years of effort for some far off future possibility of a job means nothing to me. Particularly in the fields of philosophy and social science where even your proffesors tell you you've made a shitty choice.

It all kinda culminated this summer when I was seriously contemplating suicide for the first time in my life because I have no clue what the fuck I want to do. Honestly, I have no plans whatsoever. I can't even make long-term plans for next year, let alone plan out my life and career. I don't have marketable skills, I've never had any serious responsibility in my life, I was coddled as a child, and while I'm perfectly aware of this it doesn't help me. I'm 24 and a fucking manchild who had some fantastical dreams of becoming an academic because I spent a few years reading western philosophy. I feel like I've faced the realistic prospects of my life for the first time only recently and it's not very encouraging. Finally, my parents know nothing about this, they still think I'm studying hard, I haven't been home for months and I don't know how to communicate to them the depth of my apathy and depression after being financially supported for years. I think my only chance is trying to get a low paying job for retards but I don't know the first fucking thing about seeking employment. Help me.

Well, you've taken the first step, that is being aware of the problem. Next one is much harder, finding solution. Do you have anything else you like or could see yourself doing? Thirdly, you need to have someone close to you with whom you can talk this issue through, sitting on it yourself and consulting internet isn't going to help you. Each situation is specific. Fourthly ask yourself what is important to you in your life?

Professor writing here.

College is not for everyone.

I am NOT saying you're not good enough for college, but college may not be good enough for you.

Colleges are designed to serve two populations - those who want to go into a field that requires a degree, and those who just like learning for its own sake.

If you are not in either of those groups, college has nothing to offer you and may well be a waste of your time.

And remember, I'm a professor admitting this.

It may well be that you would make a thoroughly successful Something Other Than Academic. Instead of bemoaning what seems to be failure (but is probably just a basd fit) in the academic world, look for your true calling.

And you can always read philosophy in your spare time.

24 y/o Canadafag here, I often hear that the farther away you go from big cities, more chances of meeting traditionnal girls. But where? In small towns/villages, there are no bars and no way to meet them. Or is it easier to find one in Europe?

Op I think they're everywhere. I would say most women are still traditional with some compromise. Some want to be "traditional" as well, like my cousin. Just talk to lots of women.

I'm a fucking dog in heat. When I get thr occasion, I talk to every women I can. It never goes anywhere, maybe a date and that's it. I'm average guy with a cool job and coming from a upper middle class family (women living far from cities are often poorer so more interested and easier). Sources? Well I went once with a friend that meme'd me into going in a small town. I dressed up with a clean shirt and jeans, very average in any kind of bar in a big city. But in 5min, I had 3 girls approach me. They definetely smelled money and that I was not from there. But they weren't my type so it didn't go nowhere.

I'm starting to get old (24) and I am really no interested in women over 20 so I've got little time left before it starts to be creepy dating a 18-19 y/o

Problem is, she lives in the same hall as me and all my friends happen to be friendly with her too. They're going out to party and it would just be too fucking weird for me to be around her. What the hell do I do? Could she have been too afraid to answer me?

Having an evocative and colorful vocabulary works wonders. Use adjectives, images, metaphors...instead of abstract words. Don't explain, tell a story.
Reads lots and lots of books. Very important.

The moment you can communicate relatively complex ideas (or really, just make others understand what you're saying) without coming across as a pseudo-intellectual is the moment you are articulate and well-spoken.

Patience is key. There's thousands of people that see hotter girls than their girlfriends and they think to themselves deep down inside, "Damn, I should've been more patient and stayed single".


quit being a little bitch by the way.

Put this thought into the darkest corner of your mind and leave it there to waste away.

Also, take a deep breath and tell yourself, that now you're free.
Only you can decide, what to do with your freedom - should you spend it on slowly murdering yourself with past regrets? It doesn't seem like a good pastime activity to me.
