everyone in town thinks im gay, closeted or bi. im older than 25 so its serious because people take other peoples word for it and misunderstanding is annoying as fuck. possibly ruins potential dating.
i did get asked by a friend if i was bi curious when i was drunk. i said no a few times and one friend pushed more i said maybe and then they pushed on and on. one of the girls says its ok and its normal i just shrugged. there are rumors spread and all this shit. they say i act gay when im drunk. i don't do gay shit i just feel happy and cheerful because alcohol makes me feel like nothing is really wrong in my life and they mistake it as acting flamboyant. i get shit on and all sorts of shit my friends are two faced as fuck. i quit hanging out with those people but my social life is non existent. i lost my virginity to some local girl and the sex was terrible and it was only once and she heard the rumors and doesnt give me credit. I never had luck dating because im short.
what can i do? i cant move away.

should i go out of my way and set the record when i hear people talk?

I think the first step here is to figure out which mannerisms you have which are interpreted as gay and correct them. Stop acting like a homo and people will have less reason to suspect that you are. And, of course you should correct people if they speak falsehoods about you in your presence.

It sounds like people around you are closeted as hell. Where the fuck do you live at, SLC? Deep south?

lots of shit here that contributes to what you said:
the friend who asked me if i was bi curious in front of everyone and pushed it has had a history of being friends with a legit gay guy, like they spent a great deal of time together. he has also kissed a dude. he gets no flack or anything about it either. This guy has placed his hands on my lap when we were alone drunk and gave me a crazy eyed look. says my other friend is gay who was raped as a kid.

This "friend" who was raped as a kid apparently some girls he dates suggested that he's gay and his sister thinks so. I certainly caught him eying my body when i went to his pool party. He still dates girls and other shit.

another "friend" used to draw erections and shit, has subliminal gay shit in his work but dates girls and because he is a pretty boy, he gets attention. He is also two faced as fuck and overheard him explain to his other friends that im closeted suggesting they don't believe him.

all these dudes i hung out with because i wouldnt have anywhere else to go all are two faced and shit on me, exclude me from real parties and other shit.

>>18550606
its probably my mannerisms because i can be a spaz and cant keep my shit together at times. alcohol gets me excited and happy and energetic. i cant help it man. most of the time i dont peacock, talk shit, or act "hard". ive been through some humiliating shit to where im humbled, timid and quiet.

hey 4chan. getting evicted in a few days. we still haven't found a new place to live. my mom and i both don't work and just get welfare. probably going to be homeless. any tips?

you guys in the USA? Every state has federally funded programs to prevent situations like yours. https://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/HUD?src=/topics/homelessness/localassist
find a phone number and call, ask questions, ask them to redirect you to people who can help if they can't. Talk to your welfare case manager.

Is Nyquil the cure?

For me the cure for this is putting on youtube videos as I fall asleep. Long ones that last from like 30 minutes or longer. It's gotta be something you've seen before though or you'll be paying too much attention to it to fall asleep. Could also be episodes of a show you've seen a million times before

You need to tire yourself out. Legit exhaust yourself to the point your thoughts can't even keep you awake. Start running after work. Run as hard, fast and long as you can until it feels like your lungs will collapse. Then go home, shut off your pc, your phone, anything to distract you, and go to bed when you can no longer stand. You WILL go to sleep.

I have been taking new anti-depressants that work really well, but I honestly think I'm having a hard time dealing with not being depressed.
I feel frazzled as shit like I'm taking in so much new information constantly, even though it's enjoyable for the most part.
It feels like a high you don't come down off of, and since I've had bad trips I instinctively want to escape that concept.
Does anyone with a similar experience know if this mentality goes away? I doubt it, it's incredibly specific but there might be someone.

I don't know if I have. How were you like before those pills, and how are you now?
>>
>>18550466
I was depressed, anhedonic, but calm and all my thoughts were collected and I was pretty centered. I have been that way for many many years, since the beginning of high school and now I'm 23.

Now I am responsive to outside stimuli, able to enjoy things, but feeling like I cannot process everything my sensors are throwing at me. As a consequence my thoughts are quite less collected, but aside from that the consequences are primarily good, it feels like a high.

The primary complaint is that I am averse to the very concept of not being able to come down from this "high" if I keep taking this pill, which makes me have some pretty bad moments of anxiety. It's probable that my past bad trips caused some trauma and are fucking with me right now.

Guys, how I find a smell in my room if I can't smell? I think I have mold, but I literally can't tell. I've been cleaning out my room over the past week, but my nasal polyps still won't go down. I'm going to take apart my A/C tomorrow but if that's not the case, then I'm fresh out of ideas.

I don't know what to do with my life.
I'm 21. I failed my first year of college. I made a mistake and chose a major my freshman year. I'm just going to be doing general credits this year. I have degenerate arthritis, so I can't even join the military for you fucks that think that's ever a good idea for anyone under 25. I'm thinking of applying for disability so I don't have to worry as much about money while I go to school. I really don't have anything else going on besides the part time job my dad gave me that pays just enough to cuck me out of disability right now. I'm really bored with my life. I honestly can't even see a future now.

Equine science. I like horses, but it's basically the industry of horse PEOPLE. I was getting failed for shit like skipping a daytime Halloween party where they dressed up the horses. I was miserable and somehow my parents convinced me to go again a second semester to finish the year.
I was born with clift foot. No doctor will even prescribe me a pain killer because I'd just be hooked for life on some opiates. I'd get hurt in high school doing shit like running to warm up for sports. I feel like an old man.

Should you get married if you get a girl pregnant? I got an acquaintance pregnant and I'm insisting she marry me. She says it won't guarantee that our kid will grow up well, but I say that's bullshit. A child needs a mother and a father.

I'm a shut-in with social anxiety and I want pizza. This pizza place only accepts orders over the phone. I'm scared to call. I told my mom and s he told me to grow up and call and she'll answer the door. Any tips for me? When I pick up the phone my heart races.

I get scared a lot over the phone. But the only way you can get better at it and not be so worrisome is to do it a few times. What I do is write down exactly what I want to say on a piece of paper, especially if I'm nervous. And after your done speaking, just wait for them to say everything they have to say, try not to butt something in, or you might feel even more nervous. Another thing to keep in mind is, as much as you might think the person on the other line cares about every detail you say or do over the phone, the person at that pizza place is not worried about those small details. They are just placing your order and have no idea who you are, so even if you think you messed up, they don't even know. I answer phones at my job several times a day, and people even fucking stutter over themselves constantly and I could not give the slightest fuck because I'm at work, why the fuck am I worried about someone I don't even know? Man, anxiety sucks, but it is definitely something that can get better, that first step is hard, but the relief and accomplishment afterwards is well rewarding, I promise. You can do it champ.

Why do people always comment on my style of writing? I get called a pseud a lot, but I feel like some words are genuinely better at expressing thoughts better than others.

What's the point of having a big vocabulary if you're not even going to be permitted to use it? Lol

I'm adopted and I met my mom not too long ago. We hit it off pretty good and we ended up spending a lot of time together. That was bound to slow down eventually but whenever I tell my mom I don't want to do anything, she gets upset with me. Most recently she got really upset and started crying and said I don't like her and I'm avoiding her. It took me awhile to calm her down. She's been pretty clingy since we met which is understandable since I'm her son but it's always been a little smothering. Whenever I go to her house, she tries her best to get me not to leave. I've ended up staying with her as late as 2 in the morning, it's a little excessive. She texts me all the time and even gets upset when I don't answer her.

My mom is a little too attached right now. I don't want to hurt her feelings so I'm finding it difficult how to deal with this. I kind of overlooked it at the start because of the circumstances but she just gets clingier by the day it feels like. How can I get my mom to calm down a little?

I think you should ride it out. She'll probably ease up on her own. She just wants to spend time with her child, don't hurt her for being a mom.

Classic loser here: How do I get control over my life again?
I'm basically leeching off my parents money for an apartment+ food since i started "studying" and I hate myself for it. I can't keep any stable relationships because I'm too unhappy with myself. Do you guys have a plan how to get out of this mess? How to remove that inner barrier? Was anybody of you folks in the same situation and got out of it?

You need 3 things: a job, time and dedication. Forget about relationships for a while, shits never really going to work unless you're feeling good about yourself.
Write down all the things you want to fix about your life and keep it somewhere safe. Get a job and dedicate yourself to it 100%. Get as much overtime as possible and save as much money as possible. Having cash opens up a lot of options. Try to become a little bit more independent. If you're out of shape, try working out. Look back at your list and try fixing one thing at a time. Use all your resources, anything you have that can help complete the list.

I like my best friend's neighbor a lot, he's like three years younger that me (I'm 25 he's 22) but we have a lot in common and we seem to have a decent friendship going, however he was homeschooled and really socially awkward and seems to be buried in work, school and hobbies,
How do I hit on him (without scaring him away of course, and at the very least I'd like to walk out of this unscathed if I get rejected, and still be able to maintain a friendship)?

We have a lot in common and his signals are are a bit odd but I'm like 75% sure he might dig me too but he's definitely a virgin and never had a gf as far as I know.

TLDR how do I ask out a dude who is very, very shy and not people friendly?

Pic somewhat related, the dude in pic looks a lot like the guy I like, right down to the expression and facial hair
