When was the last time you slept deeply and felt well rested?

I was addicted to cocaine for roughly two years (this was the longest streak, I did it before and after that period too) and yes obviously cocaine is pretty awesome.

I also was struggling with an eating disorder and body image issues for most of my life, so when I discovered cocaine I would be high most of the time with the nice side effect of eliminating any appetite or feeling of hunger - so my cocaine addiction also heavily played into my eating disorder.
I got lucky and had the help of my family (not so much friends) in regards to getting to rehab eventually and I have a job in which a drug habit - and over a year of rehab in total - aren't a nail in the coffin. Also my nasal septum is basically non existant nowadays which sucks and is hard to avoid.

I don't really know what to tell you?

If you had to NOT do coke for a week straight, how would you feel about that?

If you're comfortable with the answer to that question, you don't have a problem... yet

Get off your butt and get a job. Find a hobby other than weed. Do simple goals. Take b-12 to get back energy to do things. Don't eat garbage. Do family things with family, like eating dinner together, watching tv, etc.

I live in a different country, alone. I have trouble getting a job since the laws of this country are different for citizens of the country where I was born. Feeling bad should be enough to want to stop smoking though, but I don't do much during the day anyway, and don't have money for a hobby. It's a cursed circle.

Well in my case I just started to try to pull it a bit more as I could every time I masturbated, after I'm done. Cause when you fap it lubricates or stretches or whatever. Anyway, try to pull it down a bit more every time right after you fap. I started by pulling it first on one side. Then back to normal. Then a bit on the other side. Then bacn to normal.
Basically pull a bit, then revert to normal, as it starts to get used to it. I noticed that after a few attempts it turned more loose and now I'm able to fully uncover the whole head, although it's still a bit uncomfortable. So basically pull it a bit more every time you finish fapping.

How long did this take you?

In a word, no. It will be small to a size queen, but most girls are not like. Think of it this way - would you dump a girl you liked just because you found out her tits were smaller and she was using a push-up bra? Or if you found out that her butt was actually kind of flatter than you thought after she takes her clothes off?

I mean, some guys might, but they are legitimately shallow. Same goes for girls. 5 inches is enough if the girl isn't fat and has layers of chub for you to burrow through.

As far as phimosis - just start slow. I don't like the idea of sticking shit in, primarily because q-tips aren't exactly sterile. My advice, pull back the foreskin every time you shower.

Take a warm/hot shower like usual, then before you finish get moisturizing soap for sensitive skin like Dove and get some on your fingers/hand.

Use the other hand to pull back your foreskin as far as possible. Get it to the point where it's uncomfortable, but not to where it hurts. Use the soap and gently wash with the soap.

Obviously the more you shower the better - so shower every day. Over time you'll get to the point where you can actually pull back beyond your head while soft. The first time that happens it will be REALLY uncomfortable because everything is hyper sensitive but relax and you'll be able to pull it back over. It'll also be nasty - don't worry about scrubbing it completely clean the first time, you don't want to scrape the shit out of your glans.

Now keep doing that every day (pull back 100% while soft). At this point if you have sex it'll still be REALLY uncomfortable. Find a nice girl who you like and who likes you - she will be understanding when you explain why you can't fuck for too long or cum. BUT, it's like pussy juice is magic - after as few as 3-5 sessions you'll loosen up significantly and it will no longer feel tight and painful to fuck.

What outside of your room DOESN'T scare the shit out of you? You're going to have to do something scary to realize how blown up your fear was. There is no other way.

Realist thing anyone has told me in months thanks anon

So I always planned on living 5 min away from my mom, no big deal. With my GF wanting to live in another city, this would be a crushing blow to my mom. She still has my dad, but their relationship isn't good at all and hes also sick (had a severe heart attack 2 years ago) so just generally it would be best if I could stay with my plan. But alas, my gf whom I love greatly wants to move to another city. Our relationship is pretty good, the anxiety she has is tough to deal with but we get through it. We talk about our future and we're just super serious about the whole thing, We're perfect when shes feeling okay, we're not as great when shes going crazy because its just like every little thing is a disaster. I absolutely want to spend my life with her and she has shown me that she also wants that. Our convos about staying in City A lead essentially to this point from her: "I hate it here, I stayed here to be with you and you are with your family, I am homesick for my family, I don't want to raise kids here, I have to go to whatever school accepts me and its probably going to be City C or D, please move with me there".
So I'm gonna list out a few reasons why this stuff frustrates me:

2/4

1. She moved away from her family in city B and still never plans on living there, she wants city C or D. So the homesick thing is ridiculous, this is really mind boggling to me because she is going to stay homesick, and now I'm also going to be homesick and we are going to lose out on all the benefits of living in a place with people we know. She already did it once before she met me, and she was lonely, but I get that now its a new adventure for us together but it just seems like we'd both still have times of homesick, and there is so much we'd lose out on. Her car breaks down, I know where to get it fixed. If we need money and I'm not getting enough work, I can head into a number of locations because city A is the mecca and city C and D would be very difficult for me to find in house work. I make a lot of money from home right now but its smart to have that back up plan, have those connections. Id be at home with no one, shed be in school making friends. We both have friends here though.

2. The pressure of moving to another city and supporting us while having nothing to fall back on and no connections unless I like literally switch careers is daunting and not something she is willing to understand. She simply says she believes that ill continue to have work because im good etc etc and its very likely that I will, but its scary to me. Having family in the city you're in is like, you can never be homeless. I currently pay a large portion of her rent and her expenses, I don't notice the hit but I feel like right now its something I'm doing to help my girlfriend out, in another city it feels more like an obligation and that feels so very one sided. I would also feel very upset if she went and realized other slightly smaller cities also have triggers to her anxiety, and we'd be in the same place, except now we have no friends and no help. BUT, she hates this city. She just hates it and that should be acknowledged. No one should have to live somewhere they hate.

3/5

3. It hurts my feelings that she knows about the promises I made to my mom and while they aren't her problem at all, it just hurts my feelings to know that she wants me to make that sacrifice. She clearly made a sacrifice in staying in city A and missing her family dearly, but i just feel like she was gonna go there for a year and leave anyways.. I just can't see her side of this argument and she cannot see mine. So for me to have to now leave everything, and then work to support us while shes in med school just feels like a lot. Same kind of point though, she doesn't wanna live here. But its very tough to understand how she could know what I'd be doing to my mother and still want me to go through with it. She doesn't get it.

4. The situation with my mom and with my gf anxiety and illness wise etc are for all intents and purposes, unfixable. Ive spent enough time asking them to get help. They are both on medication.


So what are the ways this can go down realistically?


A. We move and I break my moms heart and support us till she can make money. I really think my mom would die immediately

B. I don't move and break my own heart. We don't think long distance is gonna work, she feels that the pain of her staying in city A to be with me the year and a half not being reciprocated by me following her would be too much eventually. I get it. Theres been too many fights about this moment for it go like that and us make it through.

4/5

>not a question, just a thought
>asks a question

yes, it is possible. upper class is not impenetrable.

>>18507110
In this day and age is when it's definitely possible, so many people becoming millionaires from dumbass shit (apps, "inventions", just for being fucking attractive, etc..)

>>18507115
My mistake, sorry.
But I always wondered like, from what point you start to become an upper class citizen. High school? College? Where, how? Some people just have it happen, others just have it normal.

I find resin in that condition smokes best if you roll it up into a ball, gunk that resin ball against the base of the bowl, kind of holding it sideways as you smoke it.

then if you continue to smoke small bowls ontop of that resin mound, it'll start to form another layer for the resin mount that can light easily, for when you're in a pinch and need to smoke. Almost never seems to go away either, so you always got some resin to smoke in your pipe.

Yeah but it won't get you that high and you'll more than likely get a headache from all the butane it will take to get that stuff to smoke.

Not to mention it's resin, your putting a thousand times more gunk in your lungs when you smoke it.

Get fucking wasted and just go ham on a bitch in a backseat of your car.

OP here, I do get nervous a lot when im having something like sex for the first time

>>18507051
I like your mentality where you will MAYBE have a sex and first thing you do is go to 4chan to tell us all about it.

I would tell you to eat her out before you insert but since it will be one night stand, you would get herpes not just on your dick, but on your mouth as well. So get condoms instead. Aids is real you know.

And then go test yourself for chlamidia

We're compelled to do so by the lizard men.

Why does anyone do anything?

That depends, will lactation porn give me good insight on how to play with a titty?
Are all those women enjoying cumming from their breasts?
These questions and more tonight on Dateline, NBC.

Watching porn to learn about sex is like watching Chuck Norris movies to learn about martial arts. So yeah, not really.

licking pussy is ridiculously easy ffs

Go outside. Cancer cereal really wish they can go outside and play but they will either be sniped to death or bombarded by the Russians. Think of the children and go outside and. Have adventure! Get some army my man and go to the river and play with them! Of course of time about the tiny plastic toys or you can assemble a group of strangers and have them cosplay as army man! There is adventure outside, you can dig your way to China!

Don't anger and despair count as emotions? Trying hard to cry isn't really gonna work, nor is forcing emotion gonna work.
You cry when you're honest with your feelings and show on the outside how you feel on the inside; you can't force yourself to be happy or sad on the inside tho'.

>>18506753
What?
>>18506759
Yeah, but I never feel anger or despair like a normal person does, I always try to rationalize these feelings and stop myself. Whenever I'm surrounded by friend I fake laughter, not even a woman's contact can help me, I'm there physically, lying my ass off, pretending, but emotionally I'm empty, and only when it's gone I miss it.

Girls who are hoes usually do not try to hide it.
Just the rape fantasy puts up a huge red flag.
