Why do you want one so much? Do you actually think you have ADHD or are you just trying to "score"?

I think I have had it since youth but my parents vehemently insisted that I don't get tested back then. However I also understand how suspicious it is for a college age male to randomly decide he wants to be tested and medicated.

haha nice try dude i have it and i know ur full of shit

Exercise

Sounds like you found that experience about a violently feministic body positive genderfluide transfat homo post mtf. Nobody does that. And if they actually do, why would you care?

The fat girl community is almost as toxic as /r9k/. They love to make other people feel like shit, just like they feel about themselves. Why would you listen to what they have to say?

>>17493165
Hmm i need some info fist before it can be solved,
Do you feel at times restless at night , having hard time stuggling to stay awake?
Do you have any issues with the past that cause a tramatic lesson that you follow by when you are mad?

>>17493257
No to all of those. I just have to deal with a lot of daily annoyances that pile up by the end of the day.

>>17493283
Hmm ok have you ever tried meditating or try to do something like doing exercise to release that anger

When high school ended, I got a job as a cashier at a department store. I was optimistic and thought interacting with customers was my pathway to becoming a social butterfly. I figured I just needed more exposure to become socially confident and cast away my anxiety. I was wrong. Being around all these people just made me even more shy. Dealing with so many assholes and bullies opened my eyes to how scary people actually are. I used to think my social anxiety was an irrational fear, but having the experience of working in customer service made it clear to me that people are a rational thing to be afraid of.

I had also been taking classes at a community college part time while I worked. The 1st semester classes were easy, and I didn't have to socialize with my classmates at all. The teachers would simply lecture and not require the students to interact with each other. The first semester went well and I got straight As.

I was stressed out about work, but I enjoyed college and was proud of my success enough to keep myself sane. Then comes the 2nd semester. This time around, the teachers didn't merely lecture. They expected us to work in groups. The first time they had me work in a group, I was too nervous to concentrate, and I came across as a complete retard to my classmates.

I had a mental breakdown, and in a week I dropped all my classes and quit my job. I spent the summer doing nothing but mooching off my mom. I decided last minute that I would continue going to college in the fall, as I felt despicable just sitting in my room being useless all day. I don't know what I'll do if it's just a repeat of the 2nd semester. (2/3)

I want to be social, and more than anything I want a girlfriend, but I don't have the basic skills and confidence needed, and I don't know what to do to get them. People tell me to just get more exposure to social situations and to learn from mistakes, but social interaction completely breaks my mind and makes me recede into my shell even farther. What should I do? Should I kill myself? (3/3)

I'm 4 years older than you and similar in a lot of ways. What's helped is being around people and interacting with them. Don't dismiss me right away. Like you I got a job working with people, but I got one in a nursing home which is a lot better for your social skills and growth than being a cashier because people are generally asses to cashiers. A lot of old people are very patient, and grateful if you take care of them and treat them with dignity. They're so patient and often take control of conversations that it's easy to pick up social skills from them. When you're a cashier you don't get deep interaction. You're not having conversations with your customers. I know, I used to work at a place like that.

If you get a job where you're interacting with the same people every day, things might improve. I know it sucks right now, but don't kill yourself. Just make small changes and see where life takes you. Try seeing a psychologist? That helped me see things in a different light. My GPA went up by 1.0 and I started being able to participate in group work (without it being painful, it was actually fun for the first time in my life). It's awkward, but it can help if you vet the psychologist first.

I'm still a shut-in loner with issues but I'm capable of enough charisma to come across well in job interviews, maintain a romantic relationship, and to not be seen as a weirdo (some of the time). I never thought that'd be possible at your age.

When you're older the not-having-friends thing doesn't matter as much. SO many people who had friends in high school and college lose touch with them, move to different cities, and find themselves alone all of a sudden. You'll be in a better spot than them because you'll have learned to manage being alone. If you work on yourself and develop interesting solitary hobbies (making you an interesting person) you can connect with those people in a few years. Most people are also so much less judgmental over small oddities as they age.

>It's always been my dream to live in Japan for a while, I've studied the language and I'm about intermediate at it. I'm hoping to move there early next year if I'm lucky.

Sorry to break to you senpai but the only job you could possibly get in here is as an English teacher. Unless you pass the jlpt n2 you will only be able to get shit jobs.

Think long and hard before you buy a ticket to come here. Life ain't easy here senpai.

If it's for pussy and you're white and somewhat fit then it shouldn't be a problem scoring. Waifu? Young girls don't want to marry, you will only find +35 yr olds desperate to grab some walking paycheck to pay for her to stay at home and fuck other dudes while you work.

>>17493150
Well what do you do since you implied you live there.

I'm planning on taking the JLPT 3 test at the end of the year.

>>17493150
Well I know he's an exception but like I mentioned, Ilya lives in Japan and lives off his artwork. Makes a good living off it too.

There's no name for it. It's just a weird abomination. A sleeveless top with a collar?

You are stupid for putting yourself on a leash and going for girls who want you to be their personal entertainer.

>>17493089

I'm not putting myself into anything, i'm just more docile and agrees more easily to things when i have feelings and truly love someone.

You are just all around stupid.

Shit shes straightforward , hmm are you in a relationship rn with anyone eles?

>>17493088
No, but I have no interest in her in that way. She's too sharp and skinny and stubborn and all over the place, and even in the rare incidents that I do find interest in girls, she's the opposite of my type.

>>17493103
Hmm are you in any job or school ? If so then just say that your a cool girl but i can't really do a relationship because im focus on [insert topic here].
If shes rational she will understand.

No.

>>17493059
I dunno, if you're that on the fence about it, I probly wouldn't. Children are a major lifestyle readjustment.

>>17493061
Oh well

Yes.

Yes. Go to a fancy hipster restaurant in manhattan, Brooklyn, or Queens, and AVOID Times Square. Seek out comic book shops and hipster art spaces, as well as major art museums. Consider checking out UN stuff. Look up what concerts are happening. Brooklyn, Queens, and Manhattan will likely have the most interesting things to check out, but also check to see if anything neat is happening in The Bronx. There is no reason why you should ever go to Staten Island, it's lame and there are some dangerous shaolin.

Go see a pro, get therapy and meds. If you can't even work due to this issue, it's serious and you need help.

/adv/ won't help you with this one mate. Find yourself a psychologist.

>>17493034
>>17493037
Oh man, now I'm really scared. But alright, if this winds up being more than it seems I need help. Thank you both for being honest.

>I would be studying my favorite subject such as Western Literature and Languages plus a bunch of cool stuff like Medieval History and Geo politics.

Why don't you just flush money down the toilet? Seems like it would be less of a hassle.

>>17493005

I'm not American so University is way more affordable for me. Plus I live in a country with fuckloads of medieval history.

mate....

No, it doesn't fucking matter. I had 30+ colleagues in college (I was 18-22) and they had no issue fitting in. No one treated them differently. Actually one of them was on of my closer friends in college.

No one cares if you're 25 as long as you're not socially retarded.

Why would you want to cut off part of your dick? Just do stretches if you have phimosis or something.

>>17492966
No, you don't need to. Yes it hurts for weeks and ruins your penis.

If you have phimosis, stretch it, if weird africans can get their lips around plates you can get your foreskin around your glans. If you HAVE to be operated on, just have them open it up, not remove the entire thing.

Well, you have some experience in the chemical sector, so I'd start looking there.
Having Mensa on your resume doesn't add that much, 'cause it doesn't list the skills you've acquired. You've got the intelligence, but you've got them to acknowledge your skills. So stress the experience you've gained.

This world is about skills and your college degree only shows that's you've mastered processing information, but what they really want to know is how you process it
