So me and my girlfriend have an age gap. Her senior prom is coming up and naturally ill take her. I told her we can do whatever she wants pre and post prom its her night. Just let me know and boom, its yours.

So her highschool has one of those after prom activities that you can go to if you like. She decided I wouldnt like it. So she bought herself a ticket to it and is planning on going. I didnt find out until a few days ago.

After prom my gf would rather go to the incredible pizza company by herself than be with me. I dont even know how to feel.

WTF?

/adv/, idk what to do.

Mom's been an alcoholic for years, but these last two have been hell.

Yesterday, we had to physically fight after she jumped on top of me, scratching and punching.

I have cuts and scratches all over my arms and neck, and now my most prized possession has been taken, and most likely thrown out or destroyed. It's stupid, but it's this stuffed monkey I've had since I was five.

I've had enough. I finally pushed back this time and she fell to the floor. I had never had to lay my hands on her in self-defense until today.

I'm 14 and I have to deal with this shit. Idk what to do.

(pic related because of situation rn; cliché, but still)

You might want to try to figure out the possibilities of what's going to happen or who is going to take care of you should the police or child protective services get involved. You do NOT want to go into the foster care system.

Your mom's behavior is a big problem though, and it's not something that you are likely to be able to deal with on your own.

It's very possible that you're going to get banned here. You might want to ask for help on another advice forum like reddit's r/relationships.

What do you do when you've noticed how boring and repetitive life is?

I'm not talking about the depression meme, I still have highs and lows, it's more about noticing the same highs and same lows within my life and I can kind of see them all the way till I die. it's about realizing "this sucks, and this IS life. this is it right here in a nutshell. same shit different day." and you look around town and its the same people going through the same shitty highs and lows and the same everyday motions.

hopefully this pattern noticing won't cut into my enjoyment of the few things I use for escapism.

Do something different. Get on a bus and visit somewhere for a day. or take up a new hobby. Humans naturally get depressed if their live gets stale.

OP, please remember that your brain is an organ. In addition, your feelings are a series of chemicals reacting to your thoughts.

Please try your best to stay mindful of your thoughts. Grow them like a little flower. Try to cultivate them. Eventually your thoughts will grow into the shape you desire. Yes, it will take a lot of time. Yes, it will be hard. However, you'll eventually bloom and you'll have more life in your heart and soul.

I followed Buddhism for a while. It's correct if you apply it as a philosophy. They say to spend time observing your thoughts, and then let them go without judgement...I don't do it that way if I have a problem like yours, OP. Suicide is serious. If I find myself thinking about something I don't want to think about, I say "NO' out loud or in my mind as loud as I can. Then I consciously change the direction of my thoughts to something more pleasant.

Honestly, this advice change my life. I spent a lot of time learning how to apply this skill, and it has worked wonders for my mental health. When I was 15-17 I almost killed myself, I was very close to it. I had the pills ready, and everything was put into place. I never did it because I tried to find a new dream, and force my mind into the direction of my new dream. I believe in you, OP.

I need a cheap phone that I can use to text and get rid of after a few uses. Something that doesn't require me to sign up for a plan and doesn't require me to submit any personal information. Does such a thing exist? Or is using a payphone my only option?

I won't get into the details or story behind this, unless somebody wants me to. But as you can assume, it's going to be used for a one time illegal activity.

i occasionally find myself very turned on by my own body.

i've never been attracted to other men before. however, i am incredibly turned on by the idea of being sexy, the idea that people are looking, i love being a tease, wearing tight clothing, etc. i have jacked off looking at myself before.

again, i've never been attracted to other men. but i'm like weirdly attracted to myself. do i have some sort of mental disorder or is this normal

I think it's called autogenyphilia. I don't recall if that's exclusive to people who think themselves as the opposite sex or not though.

I have fapped to videos of my dick before, or got turned on just looking at myself masturbating, so I'd say it's common.
>>
>>18087123
googled that, and it's the attraction to yourself if you were the opposite sex, yes. not what i'm feeling i don't think.

i don't know. i like to feel sexy. i wear tight clothes, i bend over teasingly when i'm in public (every girl i've been with has said I have a really nice butt). when i'm with girls i like to put on a show a little bit. i'll take pictures of myself and get turned on by my own body. when i'm jacking off, i'll touch my body. never finger-in-ass stuff, i'll just like fondle myself. i don't know if that's weird or not

Why does my skin look so shit on my face? I never really get blemishes but it overall just looks depressing.

I've had those red dots on my face for as long as I can remember. I recently found out they're broken capillaries? Has anyone had these before. They're quite rare from what I gather but they stand out.

Do I go to a dermatologist and get them zapped away with a laser?

Has anyone here ever seen a psychiatrist?

I've looked into psychiatrists in my area, but most seem to be the type with which you divulge your whole sob-story and they coach you on how to improve emotionally.

I'm interested in a more objective consultation after which I could be prescribed medication or other, less abstract forms of treatment.

I don't want to sit on a couch and talk about my problems; I want to list my symptoms, do some tests, and go from there.

Am I SOL?

Psychiatrist does what you are looking for. Therapist does what you do not.

>>18087008
>I don't want to sit on a couch and talk about my problems

That's not really how it works. The psychologist (very probably a psychologist at first and not a psychiatrist) is way more trained at picking out your symptoms than you are, and that's going to take some sitting on a couch and talking. after some sessions (probably like 2-3 tops for insurance reasons) the psychologist is going to have a diagnosis.

IF that is something that needs medication, then you'll go to a psychiatrist for the 15 minute meeting you're hoping for, since the psychiatrist is the one doling out meds, and they usually don't have the time to see everyone they need to see all the time. Usually you'll be on meds and see the psychologist once a week or month as you adjust to them, and psych meds take about 2-3 weeks to even see if they have an effect, since they're basically magic and we have no clue how they work. so you need regular appointments. Especially since the bad side effects of some of these meds include your problems getting way worse or you wanting to kill yourself or others.

Hope this helps.

I'll be as brief as possible, no life story.

The problems in short:
If I am not threatend I do nothing.

My motivations towards other people fall in either masochism, sadism or indifference.

It swings between me wanting them to harm or destroy me, particularly giving them mental leverage which I then hope they try use against me, not in a sexual way although I have explored that avenue to some extent but found it lacking. I somehow seem to enjoy feeling mentally trapped, pinned in a corner with no way out. It is the most intense sensation. I am drawn to being denied, threatend, and most of all, confined, it is as if I am addicted to fight or flight state panic with a sadistic/masochistic twist on top.

The other side of the coin is a very analytical way of dissecting others, every piece of information they give, eye contact, body language, movement, stance, facial expressions, every question I ask, it's all inescapably tactical, it's to establish a sense of safety and comfort, then to ascertain what their vulnerabilities are, (and they see this as being 'open' and amicable!) what they value, how to hurt or manipulate them, what drives them and by that information, how to control and cause them distress so that they become vulnerable so I may dismantle their value system piece by piece and watch them destroy who they are in order that I may get company in my own ruins.

I don't want to view social interaction like a tactician pondering how to lay siege, I have successfully controlled my impulses all my life so as not to cause harm. I want to let go of this perspective but it seems to be a case of 'what has been seen, can not be unseen'.
I can't let go of it no matter my will.

Can it be undone or curbed into something functional? How does one stop seeing every bit of social interaction as social warfare while not being completely reckless either? What is the outlook here?

as a psychology student I can tell you that psychology itself doesn't know how to help you yet.

That being said, as a veteran hitchhiker I can advise getting some completely new perspective in life. New experiences, especially new people. At some point you may come across a person you won't be able to disasseble this way, and it may make you find another way of interacting with them.
Or possibly they may offer you their way of seeing things
>>
>>18087050
I have met quite a broad range of people, and shared my inner workings, cards openly on the table style, but to no avail, it emphasizes the disconnect, being fundamentally opposed or disconnected from that kind of mindset, out of reach, it leaves me with an affirmative bitter taste which turns to disdain and a sense of hostility or alienness if I let that go unchecked and don't just put it out my mind.
The problem with perspectives of others is that no matter what, it can always be reduced to either a strength or a weakness, the primordial perspective is transcendent over all, the value template is always there no matter how it is filled in, not everything can be solved or relegated into a matter of perspective, no matter what, it will have vulnerabilities unless it values nothing.

Do you think changing the environment completely for a life alone on the road for a while might be good? Perhaps force myself out of my own control and away from any lasting social interaction, only transient encounters.
>>
>>18087129
I don't really have enough context to advise pro or against any drastic measures. It may help, indeed. It definitely managed to change my view of many things in life. The advantage was, that I always had to rely on other people - I've thus seen them valuable, strong and kind to me. Thus I could always trust them and value them.
Remember that you haven't tried every possible worldview at this point. There still may or may not be a person you won't be able to cope with using your tools.

There is a situation that comes to my mind:
I have always been ruled by my head. What my brain wanted was being done, what the body needed could be neglected at any time for any period. I loved (and still love) absolute control. For the same reason - even though I tried them - I don't like drugs.
Anyway - when I was 19 or 20 yo I accidentally
came into my gf (falling condom issue). While the problem was being processed and we were looking for a solution (neither of us wanted to have a child at that point), I got invited by my friend to join some yoga workshop in the mountains. I was really depressed heavily all the time then.
I was ordered to perform some kind of exercise I didn't knew how to complete. The teacher told me then:
"no, anon, it won't be the way you want it. You will bow your head." I did and it worked.
That experience broke me, but in a positive sense. I've seen then that there indeed may be a situation in one's life, with which they aren't able to cope using their usual ways. It has taught me some humility. Since then I managed to feel better.


So some experience of this kind may prove very beneficial and if you are willing to try it I see no harm in this. Just remember, that if you try and achieve nothing it doesn't necesserily mean this approach is wrong.


That being said, keep in mind - your case is way more severe then mine. It very well may be you have some kind of mental condition with which only a doctor may help you.

Stuck in a rock and a hard place.

>Roommate has had trouble paying rent on time about 6-7 times since he's lived here
>Understand if there's extenuating circumstances (like he got laid off and couldn't find work for two months)
>But most of the time it's that he spent too much money on toys or junk food
>Rent is $420, very reasonable
>Tells me that he's taking his "girl" to Cali for a nice vacation, talks about all the nice places they're gonna stay
>Worried about rent, but just advise him to be careful because he's an adult and his girl sucks
>Text him today that rent is due tomorrow
>Him: "Uh I need to talk to you about that brother"
>Me: "Yes, we need to have a very serious talk when you get home tonight"
>Clearly he won't have the rent because he spent it all on his shitty girl that fucks other dudes

I can't really afford to float his part of the rent anymore, because our other roommate moved out, and these things eat into my savings. I want to let him know that he's on a one-strike policy from here on out, and the next time rent isn't on time, he will be evicted. Plus I want to tell him it's time for him to stop buying toys and going on vacations and contributing to things like detergent and trashbags and chores around the house. Unfortunately, I'm over a barrel and can't afford to just kick him out and take over $1200 in rent and utilities every month. Plus I don't have a renter's agreement. (Stupid of me, I know, but I've never lived with anyone that wasn't responsible and someone I'd known for a while.)

I wanna go fucking nuts on him because I'm fuming. What should I do?

id honestly kick him out and say that you spoke to the landord and since hes not on the lease, that he will evict you, but you convginced the landlord to give him thirty days notice.

then find a new roomie or two.

you could also consider saying 'ill float you this ONCE but you need to sign this sublet agreement (which says he will have thirty days to leave if he cant pay rent by the first of a month) and that you will also orgnaize his finances for him.

if he cant agree just kick him out
>>
>>18086959
>What should I do?
ask him calmly to shape up, give him a 2 months to do so, if he doesn't, give him 30 days notice to vacate.

I don't want to be a downer, but he has rights, unfortunately. You can skipp the giving him time to shape up and go straight to the notice to vacate if you want, but in the US you very probably in most states have to give him the 30 days. You may need to go to the city hall for an official document.

>>18086970
during the 30 days you'd be looking for a new roommate, obviously.

Anyone else have weird side effects while taking Prozac/fluoxetine...or any other antidepressant? I started taking 40mg about 5-6 weeks ago, and I've been having trouble sleeping, bizarre/vivid dreams, along with anxiety attacks that wake me up in the middle of the night (which has never happened prior to taking it). Also I feel jittery yet tired at the same time. I don't really notice any changes with my depression, either.

Should I give it a little more time to see if these side effects subside or is Prozac just not for me? I plan on going back to the Dr. if things continue. I just wanted to hear other peoples' experiences

I had the really crazy dreams. I hate prozac.
>>
>>18086933
my experience was the opposite, i was on a couple different types of antidepressants (including prozac at one point) and i just felt overly tired and sluggish all the time. 12 hour sleep cycles, etc. apparently feeling sleepy is pretty common, i dunno about anxiety attacks though, so i'd definitely bring it up to your doctor next time you see them, they'll probably be willing to switch you to a different medication.
>>
this are all pretty average side effects. almost all of them have them in the warnings (mine even includes "uncontrollable bowel movements"). i get pretty bad jitters, talk rapidly a lot, and typically sleep in 2-3 hour cycles 3 or so times with gaps between them.

i think it's worth talking to your doctor about, but it's worth considering how it affects you and if you've tried other meds and this one otherwise works for you. chances are you might swap and it'll do the same thing and you might get meds that won't. i would definitely talk to your doctor because they might be able to adjust the dosage. if it otherwise works be really adamant about it.

good luck, man.
