I know this is probably one of the most asked questions but how do I stop being a lazy piece of shit?
Since I remember I've always been a lazy piece of shit, I got through school while literally doing nothing. Every day I just read 4chan or force myself to play a game that's not too demanding.
Now I'm at university still doing nothing, however here I need to do something or I'm going straight for NEETdom.
How do people have motivation to do anything? For me even getting a shower is a huge problem and I always feel tired, I can't force myself to care about anything even though I know I should.

Motivation doesn't last long and sooner or later it will wear off, whatever you do. The only quality that will help you bring yourself to do something is willpower, so focus on developing it.

>>17491767
Then how do you develop willpower if you don't have it?

You'd better look up on it on google, where you'll find the articles on this topic written by competent people, than ask here. As for me, learning a foreign language made me more disciplined and helped me develop it a lot. Taking up something that will be useful for you if you do/learn it is a good way to begin, I think.
What is the best way to ruin a vape? I need to make it not obvious though, I'm thinking about twisting the coils till they break and putting the whole thing underwater too. Pic related it's the vape, also have a bottle I poured out, would it work to fill it with water?

So you know those news reports about all those news reports about those "Hoverboards" exploding catching on fire? There are news reports of shoddily built and defective Vapes doing the same thing... but while in their mouths.
Don't fuck with things with batteries.
Batteries are known to catch on fire when compromised
Especially don't fuck with ones that are stored in a sealed, watertight tubes (which means that they EXPLODE when they catch on fire--because that's how fire works) whose function is meant to power things that heat up other like crazy, and are used next to peoples faces.
If you want to fuck with someone or make a point, do it in a less retarded and dangerous way please.
Are there dangers to punching yourself in the head? I got really mad at myself and I started to hit my skull over and over, seeing that flash of light maybe twice when I hit it just right. I don't have any mental illnesses (not that I'm aware of at least). Also, advice to cope with anger?

You are giving yourself minor concussions. I'd advise you punch a pillow or something instead.

I've done this maybe once or twice a month, would this be something I should be concerned about? I mean, in terms of brain damage or something.

Once or twice a month for how long? Brain damage should never be taken lightly

Hey /adv/,
I fell into the meme of attending free uni in Germany. I'm currently doing industrial engineering in TU Berlin. The thing is, I don't really think I'll enjoy working here because of the horrible language. How is the employment prospect of someone with a German engineering degree in the US? I'm also doing my degree in German, is that a good or a bad thing in the eyes of English speaking employers?

Hey OP I'm in the same boat, except I love the language and country. Where are you from?
If its a bachelors or masters you should be solid. Diplom might be harder, but I've heard in the past German diplom engineers had a pretty good reputation.
>>
>>17491725
Hey, I'm from Indonesia mate. The country is really nice, but I don't think my German will ever be as good as my English. Hopefully after staying here for a few years I'll get used to it.

>>17491765
Oh shit there were a lot of peeps from Indonesia at my preparatory college, did you also go to one?
Is it over? Last time we hung out was on my birthday the 15th. She came to drop off a gift but haven't seen her since until she sent me this on Monday.

Depends on whether there was ever anything there to begin with. Whatever the case, she doesn't have time for you in her life right now

I also have it skills
Personal experience with Windows, six, and Linux.
Experience with ms office
Experience doing networks
Inventory
Welding
I just keep in getting stuck at jobs that say that I'll be able to move up with those skills but it never happens. They always say it's best to keep me at the low wage positions because I am such a good worker. I have been employed continuously for the past 6 years.

Factory work. It's more physical, but you don't have to deal with people other than just about work. It also pays more like $15 at least. Look into anything manufacturing, forklift, machine operator, etc.
What does facial hair communicate to women? Is growing a beard worth it?
Extra info: I'm 20, 5'5", in good shape but not muscular, have a small bald spot and a receding hairline. The hair I have left looks pretty good

From personal experience: some women will be put off by it, some others will be incredibly turned on by it. I'd say it's good, I'd rather look awesome to a few than average to many.
Plus it's gotten me a lot of random compliments, even on the street. Overall it was a huge confidence boost.

What kind of a beard did you have? I respect facial hair, but personally I feel like they're almost too common now. I've only ever grown dirty college beards. Mine grow fuller than most, but I've never been bright enough to trim

HELP!
I am a 27 year old female in an abusive relationship. I moved to the other side of the world for my husband and he has become mentally and mostly physical abusive. He almost killed me because he saw my phone and read text messages between my mother and I. I was planning to leave and she was helping me but now this happened.
I do not speak the language here and I was so close..... this incident happened 2 weeks ago and he has been checking my phone constantly. Is there a way to hide the text messages between my mom and I? I've tried Google but I am not very good with these stuff. My search led me to this website.
I have an android and have no idea how to root it or do any of that stuff. Conveniently I just need an app that hides my mom's text messages entirely from my phone and access them in some other way.

Get out. Go. Whatever the practical or emotional difficulties of doing that, do it.

Use your savings and buy a ticket home, to get away for a while.
You do have your own personal money, right?

I've used ADD medication for several years on and off starting around my freshman year of high school.
I mostly used it as a performance enhancer for when I played music, or popped one before I wanted to write something cool/do some drawing.
Everything that I did while I was on the ADD medication was highly praised, while stuff that I did while off of it not so much. It really ate away at my self esteem, basically I realized that I was shit without medication.
I'm at a crossroads in my life right now, where I think I need to get back on medication in order to succeed, and I think the ADD stimulants are what I need. I think I should get back on them, but I feel like I need to sort this out first.
Basically, I just don't know how to cope with the depression of realizing that I'm garbage without stimulant medication, that I'm basically dogshit and untalented without the magical focus powers of smart pills. That everything I create should really be credited as 'me + adderall'. I don't know, maybe this is stupid, but it's destroying my pride and sense of worth.

Everything you've done while medicated is still yours to celebrate. You did those things. Find a new way to focus your creative energy. Start eating healthy if you don't already. Exercise always staves off my self-doubt and centers my mind
>>
I feel you Anon
I basically had to take ADD medication starting from 3rd Grade, took it about 7 or 8 years and was top off my class at that time
Then I decided to lay it off because I felt like a living robot, no feelings or anything whatsoever, just learning and being good.
My grades slided from A-B to C-D but I still felt better as a whole.
But lately the thought crossed my mind to get on medication again because I just can't focus for shit
If I'm drawing I start something new every 10 minutes because a new idea comes to my mind, basically I numb myself with drinking to switch my mind off, I know it not the best nor the smartest idea I just can't help it.
I dont even know what I'm trying to say here, just verbal diarhea all over the place.

I used to be very disconnected from the world, very aloof and quite a loner/hermit/whatever.
I got into a relationship with a girl like a week ago and it changed me. Since then I can't help myself but want to be with her all day long every single day. I get uncharacteristically mad and anxious when she doesn't immediately respond to texts even though I know for a fact she's sleeping or something, I want to see her all day long even though she's ill and can't leave house for a few days, I get angry when I feel she responds shallowly even though when I chill and reread the chat, she just replied like she normally would. Texting is another thing: I used to NEVER text anyone ever and I even told her that at the beginning, yet I'm still texting with her like mad (not spam, we talk normally through texts throughout the day). We even joked about it, how I never texted her before we got together and I just laughed it off saying she made me crazy (the irony)
Yesterday she felt very sick and simply couldn't come out, and I got unreasonably sad and angry. I went outside with my bike to chill a bit but couldn't clear my head. Came back home late at night, just texted her good night and went to sleep. She responded like she normally would though, all kisses and wishes of well, have a good day tomorrow, things like that.
She told me today she must wake up at 7 to go to the hospital, so I simply texted good morning. No response. I know she likely didn't wake up but I still got mad she didn't respond.
In other words I'm slowly getting obsessed and it's honestly unhealthy for myself and in the long term, our relationship. How can I change for the better and not be so concerned, what can I do?

Lol, wait for the honeymoon period to end. Its been a week for fucks sake.
>>
>>17491624
I know, which is why I'm so concerned.
I never told her (because it's only been a week) but I love her. I never felt love for any other girl before.
It weakened me, all I want is to be with her right now.
She hasn't introduced me to her parents yet because it's soon, so I can't simply knock at the door and be invited inside and it's killing me.
I want to relax, man. I want to be with her so much I'm afraid I'm hurting the relationship. All I can do is play an act for a while longer, then I'll eventually tell her I want to pursue something serious with her.
Help me /adv/, talk to me

You remind me of myself a bit, anon. Stay calm. Do you have any hobbies? Make time for yourself. Realize that you can have just have much (non-masturbatory) satisfaction alone as you can with others

So let's say i have a friend and his 18th birthday is going on.
His and my family have a tradition veiled within the sound of silence in which we give a, let's say ''enough'' amount of cash to each other for our birthdays.
Since it's his 18th birthday, i am giving him the same amount of money again, but let's say i need to gift him something else, something specific and symbolic and that doesn't cost too much. My boy's getting legal, after all.
My question is: What should that thing be?
What do you think of, /adv/isors?

a box of condoms.
Also tell him he can use them in your butt if he pleases.

You know what, that's a fucking good idea. I would've gave him that, but i can't.
But let's just have one more thing in mind here:
SFW.
>>
>>17491621
honestly is really hard to tell.
If you are looking for generic gifts I would go with books or video games. Maybe some clothes?
if you are looking for something more specific according to his personality then you'll have to give more details.

HOW can I get my nefew (13) off the computer and most importantly out of the house? His parents are pretty much always working and I'm worried for him, as far as I know he doesn't suffer bullying in school and has a decent amount of friends.
He probably watches a lot porn too since he is alone all day and that's what worries me the most... It can't be good for a kid to just sit in the house and beat his meat all day err day.

We don't know if that's harmful to kids or not yet since this is the first generation going through it
Let him stick with it
For science
If you're really desperate, take him out pokemon hunting with the pokemon go app, I'm sure he plays it or has heard of it

How about you just let him be a fucking kid and go find something to occupy your own time with.

I have to work this 9-5 job (more like 7am, but whatever) about a year, in rural ass place.
This means co-existing with "normal" people for that amount of time, while having almost no contact with people that understand anime and vidya.
I've given the appearance of a person that's friendly enough and approachable on plenty of subjects (they approach about everything from travel to mma to religious stance and I usually end up wasting a good hour or 2 sharing experiences and listening), but would rather be left to work.
A +6hr time difference means I almost never get to hang online with my buddies since I'm usually passed out my 11pm.
I'm lonely as fuck, and I miss all that Otaku shit I've stockpiled that I never have time to play or watch.
I'm 30, and I'm sick and tired of making new friends and checking to see if they're cool with me liking anime without talking shit about me.
However I'm sick of never having time for what I enjoy, as conversation or activity.
Anyone here deal with a similar situation?
Got advice for me?
