Do these look infected?
This isn't a habitual thing, I just did it the other night when I got drunk.
I put neosporin on them the first couple of days, and then vitamin e oil today and yesterday.
They started to itch very mildly earlier tonight like they're healing, and they already look much better than four days ago, but I'm wondering if they're infected because of the sort of pink blodges around the edges of some of them.
Also, any tips for reducing scarring?

>I need attention
>>17854615
I don't plan to do it again, honestly. I got extremely drunk on Saturday and one thing just led to another.
>>17854619
I'm genuinely not looking for attention, I wasn't getting the answer I need from google, and I sure as shit don't want anyone to know I did this, so I thought an anonymous place would be good.
This is probably the worst site to ask this question but here goes anyway.
What is actually wrong with using autism as an insult?
I'm actually diagnosed with autism and I literally could not give a flying fuck if someone used autism as an insult. I feel like the majority of people who are offended by it are just being offended for other people. I don't really understand what's offensive here.
it's the same with any other insult that implies a group of people are lesser by throwing them under the bus.
calling someone gay as an insult implies that gay people are less. same for autistic people. it implies you are less than average, less than them, less than human. etc.
something that is more acceptable is calling someone a baby. nobody can get offended by that. babies can't defend themselves, and they are literally less than you, because they're stupid little shitbags that can't form sentences yet.

I got autism and I feel the same way.
It's mostly SJWs trying to virtue signal. Fuck them, I'mm gonna call everyone else an autist just to trigger ever one of those cunts.
I had sex like a week ago. No condom, and I didn't cummed. I was kind of drunk but still conscious.
Now I got panic attack for preggo shit. Is it possible?
>>17854555
lol get scared anon. i fucked a 43 yr old raw and was scared i caught something. im still scared. its gonna be a scary fucking ride m8. i feel like this is the same type feel as scared of getting a chick preggo
>>17854603
Get tested dumbass. You'll have to ask for a blood test for herpes or it won't be tested fyi.
>>17854555
The odds are low but possible
Some people argue that it's high but the reality shown through studies is that the likeness that someone gets pregnant from precum alone are about the same as condom sex
The more pressing matter would be STIs
All Drs would suggest a test but I'm no dr
I say let it ride and see if the next girl catches anything
Hey /adv/, I figured you guys were the most relevant board for my question.
My boyfriend is against me seeking treatment for my ADHD despite me having been formally diagnosed a few times throughout my life.
I never received any treatment however, as my parents saw it as some medical shill and overall a meme.
He said to me when we were talking about it "I don't want to be with someone who is taking pills" and said "people who take pills don't think straight."
He expressed more opinions against it and a personal account of a friend of his who took pills, but at 23 I feel I am long overdue for treatment.
My question to you guys is, how should I even approach what he said? I want treatment, and how he worded what he said, it seems he threatened to leave me if I do so.
I'm really at a loss /adv/, I seriously don't know what to do.
I don't want to lose him at the cost of receiving help for what I have, I'm seriously scared of losing him and being alone again, but I'm also very tired of going through life like this.
ADHD is a made up illness.
Most likely you're drinking mountain dew too much and are sensitive to the food dyes, which have been proven multiple times to cause adhd type symptoms.
Could also be iodine deficiency, lack of sleep, could be a million things.
Don't get ADHD pills, your bf is right. I took 20 MG adderall today for work and it was great, but the comedown was hell. I wasn't being myself or thinking straight. I would get hyped about something then fives seconds later hear a voice in my head saying "noooope, don't do that. bad idea."
ADHD pills are legal speed (amphetamine) and should be avoided. Doctor's prescribe them for daily use which is retarded. if you take ADHD meds you should only take it once a week, and most cases 25% of the prescribed dose.
I'm guessing it's your diet. Maybe you have a gluten intolerance or are consuming too many artificial colors.
(((formally diagnosed)))
>>17854565
My diet consists of a healthy balance of usually skinless, boneless chicken breast, salmon with the skin, and various vegetables, and I always cook with salt that has iodine because of the benefits of iodine consumption.
For sugar I usually just consume some honey or eat fruit here and there, and I get an adequate amount of sun exposure and drink milk every so often.
I also take a multivitamin once daily.
My diet if anything is perfect for anyone trying to live a healthy lifestyle, and I regularly walk 4-5 miles a day, with some days reaching 8-10 miles on particularly warmer days.
I do respect that you took the time to respond rather thoroughly to me, but I don't believe my diet to be a contributing factor to my diagnosis.
Is there any other information you would be able to provide, such as possible causes, etc?
And in regards to my question, how do I approach my boyfriend on this subject?
I would really appreciate more help anon, anything is appreciated.

My girlfriend hates that I'm a weeb and gets mad at me for watching anime and the like.
Like now she's not even talking to me because I told her I'm watching perfect blue while she's out running errands.
How do I resolve this problem? I care about her but I don't feel like my enjoying anime is a legitimate problem.
Why does she dislike you watching anime?
Does she
1) feel you are watching it too much and ignoring her
2) feel that anime is pathetic and looks down on you for it
One of the two options is a fixable problem but the other one really isn't
>>17854502
your gf is embarrassed. I would be too. Stop being such a weeb
>>17854502
My guess is that she thinks you're watching anime instead of being productive
Do you pull your weight when it comes to chores and shit that needs to get done? Maybe she's not mad at because you like anime, but rather because anime is preventing you from doing better things
Should I join the legion or NCR.
House
And wrong board amigo
None.
You Kill House, then you become independent of all three.
Legion
AVE CAESAR
The irony that if you kill yourself you'll bring your fear of meaningless after death to reality. How does one deal with an existential crisis? I've had this on my mind for years but there's nothing I can do.
Any wise anons?
>>17854559
You continue to live on until you find meaning in it.
The "meaning of Life" is to live as you would, and you never will unless you try your goddamn hardest to
If you see no meaning in that, then simply die
>>17854497
It's best to figure it out on your own that way a personal meaning is attached to your existence (more potent)
But I would suggest reading about existentialist philosophers to get some idea
My top 3
Sartre
Nietzsche
Camus
Black 18 year old here. I think I might be having...racist thoughts. Not towards whites but towards Caribbean blacks and possibly Asians....
Is that bad? Amd if so how do I stop it amd turn back to normal?
It is not bad to have racist thoughts, just like how its not bad to have an opinion.
>>17854438
It is bad but also normal
You sound like an asshole though
>>17854438
You sure? Because I think my dad made it where I start thinking these thoughts towards Caribbean blacks when I'm angry. I think I'm not racist towards asians, I think it's me anxiously creating these scenarios in my head when I got angry at mei in overwatch
Anyone here had personal experiences with closing the gap in a long distance relationship? How did it go? Ive been in a ldr for 8 months with my gf and i see her twice a month. Fights get pretty toxic sometimes and Im not sure if most of it can be remedied by closing the gap but id have to say at least 60% of them stem from the distance. Also ldr general thread.
My LDR and I talked online for 3 years and have been together IRL for 3 years.. We haven't done long distance since-as we decided we want to live together and like each others company.. We would fight before I got here because I kept saying I would visit/move where she is and would push it off due to fear.. but I said fuck fear and bought my plane ticket and everything has been great since..
>>17854359
would fights ever be over insecurity stuff like the potential she would or you would cheat? how did you guys resolve these
>>17854338
if you're already fighting its not a good sign, especially since you say only a little more than half of it is caused by distance.
the real question you have to ask is: is a temporary romance really worth one or both of you giving up your lives as it is?
the movies have convinced us that love is the only thing that matters, and if it means meeting some girl you have to give up your life, your friends, your job, everything you built, just to see if it will work out.
its a myth. there is a reason that romance is only the 'subplot' of every movie, and only the actual focus in childrens stories or movies for girls.
because tahts all love is meant to be, one small aspect, one small part of a much greater story about you and yuor destiny.
if you foresake your life to go be with a woman, you are saying you are not worthy of destiny. that all you are good for is the most fragile of all human relationships.
I'm about to drink a 4 loko for the first time, what should I expect?
Tastes like precum. No I dont know what precum tastes like but pussies asking questions like these do, just drink it allready
>>17854330
I think they are great. Really helps me forget the overencumbering weight of my anxiety and depression especially if you throw a thc in the mix.
they taste terrible and get worse the more you drink
How do you cure yourself when you've lost the enjoyment in everything
I can't play vidya for more than 20 minutes without getting bored
I get bored of any and all new hobbies I try
I don't like talking to people
Things I used to like I now have no time for, even though I have endless free time
What do I do
>>17854312
>Things I used to like I now have no time for, even though I have endless free time
Get a job.
Get a job and achieve currency you'll feel better
>>17854312
first, let go of ego. you have convinced yourself that you are beyond our earth, that nothing could possibly entertain you. you vocalize it as being less than everyone else, but its a victim complex, its what makes you 'special' in your head. let go of it.
if you go into something hoping to hate it, you're going to hatei t.
that being said can you tell us what you tried out side of
>video games
>new hobbies
be specific.
I have terminal cancer. Since my diagnose it's been nothing but pain, like you have no idea, I can't sleep or eat, play vidya, or watch a movie or even fap or do anything whatsoever. I'm just too afraid of dying, I don't want to die, I'm on my fucking late 20s you feel me?
I'm honestly considering going to church, read the bible and become the most spiritual asshole in the world and all that but anyway I don't have a lot of time, I just want to leave this shitty world happy.
/adv/ help a dying anon.
You will respawn in a world where anime is real!
>>17854286
Going to church might provide you with some peace, especially if you bond with the people there and tell them about your illness. People have been very loving and open at the churches I have been to.
Fill your days with gratitude too, stop and think for a moment each day to meditate on how thankful you are for all of the things you have enjoyed in life. This will help you feel more positive.
Also I want you to know that it's okay to feel pain, allow yourself to feel it, feel every emotion you have don't push any of it away.
I know that you are afraid of dying, and that is okay, but do not let it keep you from living the rest of your days.
How much time do you have left anon? Let's figure this out together.
>>17854286
Go to a high price gym where they have classes for cancer patients who aren't pussies and will fight there cancer with modern age cancer fighting.
What are the possible downsides to telling a girl i'm in love with her
If you have to think about it, don't do it. I have no information about your relationship or things between you so it's literally impossible for me to comment, but the chances are you just shouldn't do it. Hell, the chances are you don't even know her, you've just projected a lot of your own desire on to her and fallen in love with that, because it's easier to do that than love yourself.
~
>>17854273
She pretty much owns you from that point on. Doesn't matter if she feels the same way, she'll always have it over you
Never tell someone you love her/him. It should be obvious if there is love. Pretty cold to make it known that way. Just think about this for a while
Is it important for a serious girlfriend/potential wife to have hobbies?
My current girlfriend is kind, and she cooks well and is neat and tidy, and loyal. Those are really good qualities. But she's very ... boring. She doesn't have hobbies, aside from watching TV and movies/shows on Netflix. When we talk, I usually talk and she is enraptured and is so interested in what happened to me today, what I think, what I did. I just wish she could sometimes provide some conversation, aside from what character in Games of Thrones killed whom.
Has anyone ever dated someone boring?
>>17854224
She sounds like my fucking dream girl.
What's her number?
No, but seriously....that's a gift from God. If she's attractive you should wife her up immediately. She will be a huge asset to building your empire.
>>17854230
Okay, of course she is a good asset, but it would be nice to have a normal conversation with her too
Like I say something
Then she says something
Then I say something
Then she says something
Etc
>>17854238
Sounds like you're communicating with her incorrectly.
The proper way to communicate with women:
>Ask her questions, get her talking about her nostalgic memories, her passions, her interests, whatever. Most girls aren't interesting.
>Make sure she's doing 80-90% of the talking. Ask questions about her answers to your questions
>Eventually she'll open up to you and communicate deeper subjects with you
>Slowly get closer and closer to her until you end up inside her.
That's about it, m8. Post pics of your gf.
