No it proves you're beta as fuck.

Why did you stop improving yourself? You think attractive people just sit around and things fall in their lap?

After I had a breakup last year I went on a date the very next day and got laid. I got a new haircut, started exercising daily, stopped watching porn, stopped smoking weed as much, I focused on improving myself in every way possible.

That's what you should have been doing for TWO AND A HALF YEARS. Today is the day you get off your ass and start improving yourself. Stop being such a low energy fuck.

Don't fall for this meme, after my divorce I did a lot of self improvement and now I'm just a better looking bitter ruin of a man

>>17936736

I stopped because I never really started

I am hitting the gym now at least.

>>17936712
Clearly she should be your personal whore

>>17936713
OP this guy is right just make her your personal whore

>>17936713
>>17936720
sorry but thats not happening

>>17936706
Stop caring so much about other's opinions about you. Everyone has sex, everyone masturbates. Did a lot of people see it potentially or was it just people who were walking by?

>>17936706

lol

maybe close the curtains next time

Keep masturbating in the open since everyone knows already.

GIYF

have you even tried doing internet search for

nevada math proficiency ?

>>17936711
I did but I couldn't find some sort of conversion chart for raw score to graded score.

>>17936737
>I did

well your internet competency could use some improvement too - try this search

nevada math proficiency raw conversion score

i saw a few links

For starters, get a new therapist. If your current one is failing to recognise your issues, he's useless.

>>17936681

even general practicioner doctors can & do prescribe zoloft & those kinds of pills

poke around here - nami.org

Hi OP, I struggle with recurrent major depressive disorder, anxiety, suicidal ideation, and an eating disorder. I'm currently on meds and have gone through DBT therapy. You know you the best out of anyone. If your psych's answer is to say that tyoe 1 bipolar is more important than the other types out there, it's time to get a new psych if possible.
As for my experience with DBT therapy, I really appreciated it. Being able to interact with others like you and I in group therapy was the best thing for me.
When it comes to meds, I wasn't too keen on taking anything. I really hate I have to take meds but, after having done it for three weeks now, I feel clearer in my thinking.

>>17936618
What I do is force myself to think about something else if my thought drift in that direction.

It all goes to hell though if I develop a crush on someone. Then it's utter hell. That's where I am now, it sucks. But hopefully I'll fall asleep soon and get a few hours reprieve from the pain.

unleash your inner homo ?

if that doesn't work then realize your assumption about females is incorrect and based on faulty data

>>17936641
>faulty data
What faulty data? OP has probably got at least a decade of empirical data backing up his hypothesis

Remote to non-existent.

Are you a kissless virgin? Then zero. Your odds are the same as back home.

same as in the US.

Raspberry Pi or a cheap Android box

>>17936511
find a digital/analog tv converter with that feature. mine was like 30 bucks

>>17936524
Thanks
>>17936529
Yes, this is exactly what I'm trying to do. What's yours called?

>>17936494
Start talking to women and get laid

That's what NoFap forces you to do.

The point of NoFap is quitting the porn. Not edging for hours without cumming and getting blueballs. You already relapsed so what´s the use? You´re just doing more harm to yourself.

Edging (without release) is like the single worst thing you can do to your dopamine

>>17936499
>Start talking to women and get laid
This is a meme that only works if you're attractive

It's not hypocrisy at all. Some people are just too close to certain situations to effectively be of any help. They might be too emotionally attached to a person, relationship, etc to be properly objective. This might skew the help that you're attempting to give and can even lead to manipulation.

Each situation is different, of course.

>>17936482
So depressed people are supposed to seek help from their second once-removed cousins or their delivery men instead?

This is not about the psychological help from professional medicals - which of course must be objective - but about the support accompanying it.

>>17936500
I think that depends on the issues, causes, relationships, etc. This whole topic is rather general.

Let's say someone has depression issues that stem from family members. Those family members might not be the most effective support simply because of past events.

Again, it's very hard to say without any familiarity with the situation.

Op here, sleeping not seeking

>>17936412
Let her know you're there for her and bring up talking with someone on campus or her doctor or her parents. Someone who says they're suicidal and not sleeping well needs help. That's her way of asking for help whether she realizes it or not. this is serious.

>>17936422
She sees a therapist, but it clearly isn't doing shit

No it means you're fapping too often.

If you fap and you feel apathetic and uninterested sexually after ejaculating, you're cumming too often.

Limit ejaculations to once every 4-5 days. You should feel energized and eager for more sex after ejaculating, not tired and apathetic. This is a crazy premise to people who ejaculate too often because they've never taken the time to understand their body's sexual chemistry.

One fap a week.

>>17936647
>another nofap/nosex shaman
>i-i-it brings peace and tranquility into your life!

>>17936654

I never mentioned nofap and I never said peace or tranquility. Also the fake stuttering is autist tier

Fapping too often is just beta and makes you low energy. Low libido and weak erections are the result of cumming too often. Every real man knows you gotta save your nuts, especially in the cold season.

>>17936347

dude if you can't figure this out then really we can't help you

>>17936360
Seriously. She's into you. What're you doing playing with yourself?

>>17936347
She must be talking to a wall.
Make a move ohpee

>>17936346
No.
She has a mental disease and she should go and see a doctor about it.
She probably knows that not eating is dangerous for her health, but she's sick.

It's like saying "can you talk a person out of schizophrenia?".

>>17936353
Yeah. This is completely true minus the whole calling it a mental disease. It is a mental disorder much like cancer is a physical disorder/sickness. I myself struggle with an eating disorder as well as depression and anxiety. Your gf needs to speak with a trained proffressional (sp?) in order to get on track to recovery and managing well. Reasoning isn't going to help. It'll cause more anxiety.

>>17936346
I thought to be anorexic you had to weigh less than a specific percentage of your expected bodyweight?

In any case, you can try, but it likely won't work. Anorexia is typically linked to control, self esteem, body issues, trauma, and other psychological issues that aren't just nutritional ignorance. She needs therapy.

>>17936337
Not really sure if this relates 100% but i can give you my view on some interactions.

Sometimes i talked to friends who were really cool sometimes and i was just straight up bored or full of them and didn't talk back to them for months or years aswell. Sometimes it just hits you and you remember the good times you had and you get interested about this person and just decide to text back and sometimes i even realize why i wasn't in the first place after i get the response.
Generally i talk back after a response i initiated so that part seems odd to me aswell.

>>17936356
Thanks for responding. I figured that might be the case like maybe she had second thoughts after messaging me or after my response. I did allude to the fact that I was absolutely into her back then and said it was weird rereading those messages after the time has passed. Maybe that offended her? I thought about messaging again to banter her a bit about her lack of response but I decided against it as I don't want to give the impression that I care too much or want her in my life now.

Also for more context this is someone I knew in real life and we are mutually attracted to each other but my game was (and probably still is lol) super weak so I walked away with what little dignity I had left.
