Welcome;
I give a lot of advice, whether it be on this website, irl, or even family matters. I am always the person people go to if they are in a bad spot. I guess you can say i've gotten good at it, and so I come to you on this monday evening with one question: What's on your mind?
Ask and thou shall receive. I would say I am well versed in all topic of discussion, (depression, money, suicide, motivation). Nothing is off limits.
Feel free to ask away, P.S try to be as accurate and through as you can, for the advice is more accurate with the more information I have.
I'm depressed to the point where I can't get anything done. I've quit drinking some time ago, but sobriety really sucks, and I'm having a particularly bad day, full of regret and memories I miss. The pic is quite related.
How do I deal with smug, condescending OPs?

I'm obsessed with the notion of becoming the most virile and masculine male possible. This is because I've realised it's the only thing that actually matters in life. You are put on this earth to spread your seed as much as possible.
But I'm not doing anything. I keep thinking of joining the military to toughen up but I haven't followed through on that yet.
What should I do? Follow through on the military? And please don't give me some soppy bullshit answer, I've made my decision that I want to be super masculine, now I just have to do it.
Airborne training coming up.What do I do? How do I overcome a fear of heights?
>>17324205
By jumping often.
You may find that your fear of heights isn't so bad from an aircraft. That might sound weird, but that's how it was for me.
Now, admittedly, I've never jumped, but I was a Loadmaster on C-130's and spent alot of time standing in open troop doors and on the ramp after an Air Drop. Have a serious fear of heights when I'm up on something high. Tall buildings, balconies several stories up, walking across the Golden Gate Bridge... scare the fuck out of me...
But looking out the troop door on the 130 at 1,500' AGL didn't bother me a bit.
Where has your fear of heights manifested? I have problems with "Grounded Heights". You may be the same.
To quote a buddy of mine, "The second jump the scariest."
Just drown yourself in technique and training and go for it! You won't feel it til it's happening...
Alright so I need the honest truth, don't spare my feelings or anything. Am I ugly? And how can I look better? I'm 18 but I get told I look a lot younger, how old do I look? Sorry for this shit, I'm new here
>>17324122
The ugliest thing about you is your hair. Either don't dye it or learn to keep dying it so roots don't show. Other than that you are fine.
your attractive. don't do anything stupid like getting tattoos and you should be able to find yourself a good husband.
Have some confidence, you look fine do your own thing. don't settle for people who don't like you for who you want to be, etc etc (make sure you touch up roots frequently with super-dyed hair like that tho)
It's been 10 months and I still can't get over a girl. I'm still feeling sadness and anger. It's occasional. I don't think I have depression or anything.
How do I get rid of this? Does it ever go away?
It does. You find someone better.
Can take a day or a decade.
>>17324081
Delete everything about her that reminds you of her. You gotta wipe your brain. No pictures, names, stuff from her. Wipe it all so that it's harder for the memory.
>>17324096
I've gotten rid of pictures, don't stalk social media, etc. I just feel like this is taking too much damn time.
The most helpful advice you will ever receive, ever:
You don't matter, your problems don't matter and existence means nothing.
You are just byproducts of the universe, you were not made by Gods or put on this world for a 'special purpose.'
Don't let that stop you from living a happy life though.
Make money, use people for your own personal gain, succeed, die happy.
>>17324015
I wonder what were the final thoughts that passed through cioran mind before he died
>>17324015
You are a dumb faggot
>You don't matter
The vast majority of people and life in general don't matter
>Not here for a specific purpose
>LOL live a happy life, k guiz ;) Just make sure to fuck other over lololol XD
Fuck you. Life is worthless past the age of 18 if you weren't born into a rich family or had determination to make it through. Posts like your's give me the motivation to actually kill myself. Fuck you, you dumb faggot
>>17324015
Thanks, Rand.
To a degree, I agree with your point. But the way you put it just makes you out to be a selfish asshole.
Srs question.
If you don't like doing it, don't do it. But if you want to satisfy women, you should warm them up first.
I mean this seriously, sex is better when you care about how your partner feels.
>>17323985
My wife's girlfriend says yes it is.
Foreplay comes in different variations. Sometimes you finger the girl, sometimes you fingerbang her, sometimes you eat her out, sometimes you fist her, etc.
I want to slay normies like the knights of old slayed dragons... How can I go about this?
I think the church has stopped making saints, so this would effectively be impossible.
Though luck, OP. You'd have to leave the house to do that
How would you tell the normies from the non-normies?
What if someone you think is a normie is actually a person that does a lot and I mean A LOT for charity and really dedicates his/her life to make the world a better place?
Would this plan work in real life?
>be walking down some empty street with a girl you know
>previously hire guy friend to show up there with his face covered and pretend to assault you two
>get him to hit you and violently assault the girl as well, as you pretend to fall to the ground
>get up and pull some karate move on him, knocking him unconcious
>run away with the girl
>suddenly she's in love with you because you faced a dangerous situation together and you "saved" her
I'm not interested in the moral point of view. Also, assume that both guys are willing to do this. Would the plan work to get the girl? And no, I'm not going to try it in real life, just asking hypothetically.
Well as a girl, the first thing I'd want to do is contact the police.
>>17323957
A million things can go wrong, and a few thousand of those involve the girl somehow seeing the face of your friend. Now you've got a friend who you have to effectively cut out of not only your life, but all your friends' life as well, due to the chance of her viewing a photo of him or whatever else.
Dumbest idea ever.
>>17323957
Don't have the guy attack the girl, she may actually try something like pepper spray and it causes too many variables.
Other than that, I have no idea on if you should do it or not. I like that you think like you're in a sitcom. You and I have a lot in common lol.
Hey /adv/,
I'm a high school senior who needs some serious advice.
Throughout high school, I took very mathematical-oriented courses, as well as a minor focus in social studies. I had planned that I would go into computer science or a related career, but I now realize I would be a better fit within politics.
If I were to want to have a political career, and I majored in political science, should I give up my attempts at becoming a politician due to my focus in math in high school? Do they take high school into deep consideration?
Thanks guys. I know that 4chan is an awful place to be asking such life advice but it was my last resort.
Do not go to school to be a politician.
Go to school to get a job
Become a politician to solve problems (or be corrupt)
You are not elected based on your degree. Most politicians are lawyers anyway.
>>17323850
Most politicians went to Ivy-League school. if you like politics, take economics.
>>17323850
If you are good at math then you won't make it as a politician.
I knocked my flowerpot over trying to move them to more sun. They're only seedlings. How do I save them?
>>17323837
Carefully repot them, any broken stems you will need to use a thin piece of wood and carefully tie it so it is "upright". Shouldn't be too difficult.
>>17323846
They are about the size of my thumbnail, I will do my best.
I am literally watching them wilt and die in front of me. Is there any other advice? These are so small I don't know what to do.
Based on the "symptoms". It seems that i've been dealing with depression for over 3 years.
I've never talked about it with someone. I don't want them to get away from me, think i'm crazy, think I want to draw attention or pity me.
I try to cover when I'm deep low by trying to help friends not feel this way, I try to "look and feel" happy in a normal, moderated way. Helping them, listening to their problems.
I don't want to be a bitch, but I really feel worthless, I came to the point where I made an entire plan to kill myself without involving/damaging anyone, trying to avoid as much people as possible and make the pick up of my body easy by not leaving a mess. Haven't "executed" it because I don't have enough money for it, sadly I have my "special savings" for it.
I have a gf, she says i'm an overly sensitive person, that I exagerate stuff.
Friends say the opposite, my gf is actually a bad person, she manipulates me and lies (according to a psychologist). I'm going to dump her, sadly she's 1 of the 2 persons I know that make me forget my depression, it's hard for me.
But I never talked about it, not even with my psychologist. More than 3 years passing every birthday, christmas and vacations wondering why the hell i'm still alive.
Is it a good idea to put it out of my chest? Tried to talk it with one close friend, but to be honest I just bursted in tears, he didn't knew what to do and started to tell me a story about his soccer match.
Any tips?
>>17323659
Just a question.
How old are you?
>>17323659
Sounds like depression. I recommend you not cut ties to anyone if you can help it. Work on being less sensitive(because you do seem to be). And truck on. Resist the urge to isolate or emotionally vomit on people. find a middle ground.
>>17323659
Hey man, I've been through the same and depression is not something that goes away. But I'm a stranger on an anonymous board, tell me anything you want and I'll answer honestly. Don't keep it to yourself.

Dear Danny DeVito,
I had a dream last night that you were feeding my fried chicken in a Kabul slum.
I shouldn't have taken the breast piece. It was too chewy.
All the best,
John

Dear all bitches who have rejected me before i got engaged.
I'm speaking to you 3 whores of course, you know who you are.
That's right bitches I fuck regularly now and will soon have a wife while you are still doing your completely pointless shit you were doing back when I was dumb enough to fall for your shitty routines.
I hope you get rekt and faster aging. I will be infinitely times happier with my life than you could ever be, since you hate yourselves too much to do anything with your lives.
Choke on dicks and die,
Me
Dear Facebook,
Stop putting her on the top of my contact list. She's not even the person I talk to the most, what the fuck. It's just not gonna work anyway.
Just fucking stop goddamnit.
I can't stop sweating lately.
I don't know if it's my body or the heat or what.
In the middle of the night, 75ac in my house, sweating like hell as I try to sleep.
step outside for two seconds, come back in, waterfall off my forehead.
just sitting under a fucking fan in the a/c, and I am STILL sweating.
I've been having to take like 2-3 showers a day to deal with it all.
What color is your pee? You might be dehydrating.
drink water my dude
You're overweight and you ingest too much sodium in your diet. So when it's hot, you suffer I've been there. Eat healthy, drink water. Give it some time. Poof, magic.
I think I might be a creep /adv/
There's this girl, we're friends, I told her how I felt and she wanted to stay just friends. After the initial kick in the gut I got over it well. We pretty much stayed the same. We'd go out in our group of friends, we'd hang out just the two of us, and we haven't talked any less than we used to.
That changed. I thought I could handle it, but I've noticed that every time I see her, or know that I'm going to see her (we work together and overlap at least once a week), or even just hear her name, I get anxious and excited. And when I'm not with her, I think about her. But the worst thing is, if I don't hear from her, or see that she hasn't been online in a while I start assuming the worst. "She doesn't have time for me", "she's probably out with 'someone' doing 'something' ". If I don't get a message back but see she's been online I feel jilted or insulted.
I don't want this to get any worse. By which I mean I don't want to constantly feel like this. I hardly look at other women now, and the things I used to enjoy have gotten a bit plain.
What do I need to do?
>>17323505
a) get over it
b) man up and tell her about your feelings
>>17323505
Stop being friends with her. You want more and are being friends to still feel attached. Need to break the chain and go find happiness elsewhere. No point staring at her FB and doing mental gymnastics about what she is doing and with who.
When you do, you'll wish you did it sooner.
>>17323505
If your happiness depends on her this much, it might be a sign of depression. The obsession side is especially unhealthy.
Don't just shrug it off, at the least bring it up with a doctor and find out for sure.
Hello guys. How can I get these lines under my eyes to go away?
>>17323448
stop being a stressed out faggot
sleep
Get a good restful sleep.
I've had those marks since I was ~10 OP.
They've gone away at really high points in my life, but they come back.
I hope you're not under too much stress, as >>17323465 suggests.
