Shouldn't you be studying engineering if you want to specialise in robotics? Also I'm just curious, how are robots going to help animals?

i will be finishing my biology bachelors degree in a few weeks. if youre in it because you want to work at a petting zoo you will be unpleasantly surprised that its actually a science degree. many people drop out in the first few semesters when this hits them.
on the other hand if you kind of want a bit of everything biology is just right in my opinion. we had courses in mathematics, physics, tons of chemistry, anatomical biology and of course ecology. it was quite modular too, i took a course in bionics (designing machines based on biology basically) and you can focus during your masters later.
look into the programs offered to you and see if they have courses involving robotics/engineering etc. and decide from there.
i personally loved every minute of biology and it gives you a quite nice toolkit to switch into all kinds of master programs and fields. quite fun practicals and field work too.

if this sounds too soft for you i recommend just going full on engineering and picking ecology stuff on the side.

i also want to mention that you know jack shit at 18 and you will change a lot personality wise in the next couple of years so if you want to hear my 2ct you should keep your options open as much as possible.

How in the fuck have you been dating for 2 months without making out?

>>18523072
>tfw i'm used to getting sex at MOST week 3 easy

I pity you senpai. You must be blue balled as fuck

Just fucking go for it though when you two are alone. Grab her armpit or stomach, move to her chest and then kiss her. At your stage that shit should be easy.

Just shows how gullible the kind of people giving advice in these threads really are.

>>18523019
seems like you have your shit on track? keep it up i guess.

>>18523019
Depends. Are you happy?

albino mommy sounds cute

Bumping for help.
I feel isolated even though I have some people to talk to.
I feel like I'm only on everyone's peripheral.

I'm 31, and been married for 5 years. I can't really help you. I stopped trying to find "true love," and that was when I started having good relationships. But really, when I also stopped trying to find true love, I also had a certain mentality. "Fine. Fuck it. I'm alone for the rest of my life. May as well be someone I would want to be around." Then the chicks started flocking to me.

You'd be shocked how single women don't respect marriage. At all. "I won't tell if you don't," and the like. Weird shit.

Nothing is left for me is there?

Get morning after pill just in case. Better safe than sorry

>>18522896
Probably, but I don't like to gamble 20 thousand dollars per year. Pick up the morning after pill for 40 bucks at your local pharmacy. No prescription required, although you need to ask the pharmacist for it.

Also, start using condoms with spermicidal lube in case something like this happens.

Also, the sooner you get Plan B, the more effective it is. Don't wait any longer than you have to.

Idk about PTSD, that just sounds like plain mental trauma and you should probably seek help asap.

>>18522851
Someone close to me has PTSD for most of his life now (due to abuse, witnessing murder, being in a war zone as a child etc.)

For him, he gets images of those traumatic events in his head when something triggers it, he's prone to bouts of anger and hurts himself and others as a result. He gets nightmares and has insomnia, and has an eating disorder and can't eat. Also suffers from panic attacks, low self-esteem, feelings of guilt.

It could be possible in your case, but how long ago did this happen? If it was very recent then it could be a normal reaction to what you witnessed. If it's already been over a month and you feel the symptoms you described and still feel them strongly, it could be PTSD.

If it continues I will advise you to seek help for it. Living with mental trauma is very difficult and in my opinion should not be left untreated

You get clinically diagnosed. Goodness knows there's enough people on the internet with self-diagnosed PTSD.

Guess I should give some back story.

It was about 2 and a half months ago and I had just come home from work. I had eaten like a pig and had a ton of coffee. Then I smoked a blunt. I had smoked weed regularly but this wasn't right. Next thing you know it felt like a thousand knives were digging into my chest. It was awful and I couldn't sleep. I induced vomiting. I took peptobismol, tums, and even milk of magnesia later and got everything out of my stomach. It was as if my heart were beating faster. Maybe I was having a panic attack. So I don't smoke anymore and I don't drink coffee.

Fast forward to now and well whenever I eat the things I like it's like someone is lighting a torch in my chest. I just burp and fart continuously until I go to sleep. My chest is so damn tight and burping relieves things but only for so long. This is why I'm gonna go see a doctor.

> I'm so beautiful that people love me / are too attracted to me
/ thread
> pathetic bait

>>18522731
This cracked me up.

In all seriousness though, it's just that those who do happen to like me, like me a tad too lot. And for the virgins on this board, even two persons that do this could equal many.

>>18522720
remove yourself from the situation. decline relationships and dates. you are probably someone who can only have casual sex.

>>18522714
Dont try to suppress the emotions. You have to learn to be aware of them. You already made the first step and got help with therapy. You have to ask yourself brutally honestly, why is it's that I am acting this way? Literally don't be afraid to be honest with your therapist, they are there to help you with your problems.

>>18522714
You need medication and serious help.
There are so many places to do that. It's that you're brain is injured and if it were your arm you'd get it fixed.
