sup /adv/,
I've had a strange year or so
>be high achieving University student, attend University/Law School, have internships, win awards, achieving high marks throughout degree (1st class, so probably 3.9 GPA)
>had a great circle of friends, exercised regularly, partied, had good social interests in poetry/writing/sports
>Aged 22 suffered a psychotic breakdown. Used to smoke pot once in a while, had some stress with finals looming, and it just destroyed me.
>Had psychotic delusions that I was the second coming and I was here to be mankind's redemption, my friends were trying to kill me etc.
>Got committed, and spent 3 weeks in a psych ward
>Suspended University studies, moved back home
I return to University next month, and I have no idea what to expect. I've recovered now. I'm mentally fit and well. See the therapists and doctors once in a while just to check in. Took my course of meds, exercised, never touched drugs/alcohol again.
It was a manic/psychotic episode, associated with bipolar disorder. It sucks that it happened, but i'm just grateful to be healthy now.
I know this is a really strange question to ask, but how will people see me ? Will I be seen as the local freakshow or what ? I just want the truth, it's hard for me, from the outside looking in, to have a clear understanding of it.
When people ask me what happened, should I tell them 'I was hospitalised', or should I tell them 'I had psychosis' ?
I've been honest with all my close friends, and my close friends have been really nice about it. But I need to move on with my life and put this behind me, I don't wanna be seen as a crazy guy going forwards.

Act normal and people will forget about. Some close friendships will be strained depending on the extent of what happened between you. Don't worry about it, basically.

Put your old hard drive in your new computer, and access it from there. It isn't hard.

Sup /adv/, I need your guys' help.
So long story short, I'm home alone for the next two weeks and I'm planning to get some pussy. I'm a pretty good looking guy, and I was thinking of using Tinder to bring home some girls.
So, any advice for a good bio? Maybe even a template I could use?

So here is my story, I am 20 years old, studying computing and information technology. I have a gf for 2 years, it is a pretty stable relationship, a couple fights here, also my looks and confidence are decent.
It is just that I found out that I can't contribute anything to humanity and I have a feeling that I am only taking space on this planet, I don't see a reason why I should be here if I don't contribute anything, I also have a problem of not having self control I hardly study anything and get amused with anything else, it is just that I have a feeling that I won't end this University and in 5 years I will accomplish nothing. Do you have any advice how can I get a deeper meaning to this life and a way to get more self control?

Nop, life wont get better sadly. There is no deep meaning. Kys m8.
>>
>>18622573
The meaning of life isn't some fucking universal constant that we all have , we all have different reasons to exist you simply haven't found yours yet if you have shit grades and you don't study or ask for help you shouldn't be wasting your parents / states money for no reason,
>>
What do you mean you found out you can't? You've got a working brain, and if you're able to do computer work then that'd indicate you have a relatively usable body, so it's not for lack of physical faculties. It may be so that most of us probably aren't able to change the world, it's a big thing to accomplish, but in your own world there are things that you assuredly have the ability to make an impact on, so if you alter your perspective somewhat then you can probably find something to go on living for. It may require doing something new or different and making a commitment to that however, so you'd do well to get this self-control issue under control so you can apply yourself.
Hey /adv/ can anyone help me identify what this is or direct me to a reddit board that would know or something?

It is a primitive revolution counter.
Push the sharp point against a rotating shaft and time the number of revolutions on the big dial.
Usually the big dial turns at 1/60th or 1/100th of the drive shaft revolutions.

So I was wondering about my future and came with the idea that to really live a good life o have something in the future to be proud about is necessary to have a dream. The problem is that I just don't have anything that I want to accomplish, I thinked a lot but I just don't know, so please share with me what are the things that make you move on and what you want do accomplish in the future.
Pic not related, I just love dogs.

My dream is to start a family. That's it. Don't want a lot of money or to travel the world or to be famous. I just want a quiet simple life with a wife and kids.
Its not going very well.
>>
>>18622469
Good luck with that friend.
For me the problem of having a family is that you will have a lot of responsabilities, stress and less time to enjoy yourself.
But at least you will find support on them and they will help you in the future when you will be senile.

My dream is to one day have a qt trap gf , yeah yeah fag , but it is a dream I'm working towards ,

I want to teach myself how to be dedicated and how to actually learn.
My issue is that I'm not dedicated and I don't know how to learn. I mostly "study" if I ever do by just mashing my head against a wall for maybe an hour doing problems in a book but I don't absorbed the content. It all just leaves my head when I enter to take the test.
My other issue is that I burn out so early in the year, do nothing the middle 50%, and then try hard as fuck only when I've already failed.
Are there books I can read or things I can try?
I feel like the problem would resolve itself when I start waking up every day and trying but I can't. I don't. I don't know why I carry on like this and maybe one of you have overcome this so please tell me your secrets.

One book that really helped me out early was 'Self Discipline in 10 Days' by Theodore Bryant.
Be wary: It will not radically turn your life around as a magical tome of +10 wisdom, it will require effort and more than just the book on your part.
However, it is filled with neat tricks I still use to this very day around 7 years after I've read it.

Hope this helps..

I find what works best for me is to develop a routine and to never deviate. If you want to study or exercise then do it every day with no exceptions.
for me at least, it is really easy to fall into the trap of "oh I'll start doing X tomorrow" and the only way I've found around that is to start and then never stop, even for a couple days. A day or two break will turn into a week, then a month, then a year...

So I've been in this relationship for 2 years now and it's pretty great, she's a good girl and her family seems to like me. Lately we've been chatting about what it'd be like if we were married.
First thing she says is "I can never be a house wife anon" and "its just not my thing"
Now she does have a legitimate reason for this, being that she's a Doctor (just qualified) and is very open to starting a family and I'm a wagecuck waiter who's barely getting by financially. I do have career asperations but that isn't what my main concern which is that if we ever got married and had kids I would obviously be the one staying home with the kids, being a house husband. In all honesty I'm not happy with this idea, there are certain things that naturally work together and one of them is the mother raising the children while the man provides for the family.
I've seen testimonials from other house husbands and they all sound like cucks who have had their balls locked in their wife's purse while she's at work being the bread winner.
Help me out /adv/, I don't want to the lose this girl but I also can't see a happy future together with her long term.

>can't see a happy future together with her long term
There is your answer.
It would be pointless to pursue a relationship if you "can't be happy with her"
>>
>>18605525
you are probably right and shouldnt build a family with her. hard to shit on such a good earning wife, especially considering everyone will know it's from some inferiority complex, but not much to be done. if possible find another gf and cheat on this one so you can say you love that one more and (pretend to) save your face. you will know the harsh reality tho
>>
>>18605578
Wait, I don't understand who would have the inferiority complex? The doctor girlfriend or the waiter OP?

Eating habits.

>>18636432
including drinking water more than any other fluid.
also, Oxyclean type stuff can help release odors.
otherwise, just wash things twice, or plan to throw crap away and replace it.

When was the last time you showered?
Honestly, if there's no redness or blisters or anything visually shitty, it could just be your body's bacteria.
Go shower, and put some baby powder all over your junk and asscrack. That'll kill the smell.

How to deal with being very very uncomfortable all the time...
As you can see I'm like ready to pop and I feel like I'm practically dying. Wasn't this bad with my other kids but I'm on bed rest with this one and I can't stand it! I'm worried about the labor since there's been complications and also I just can't stand being pregnant any more. Everything hurts and I feel like I'm trapped in my own body. It's worth it, I love kids are really want a big family, but how do I better handle the stress and fear till the baby gets here?

Are you the Mormon girl who posted a few weeks ago about how you made a promise to have as many babies as often as possible?
>>
>>18635164
No, my husband and I arnt religious at all.
>>
Just try not to focus on the fact that there is a living parasite residing in your abdominal cavity. Also try not to think about how your relationship with your husband will inevitably fall apart once you have a tiny, screaming human being to raise. Everything else will take back seat to the needs of this child. Your life, as you knew it, is over.
Have fun tho and don't worry too much. :^)

How do people fall in love with ordinary people? All the people I've fallen in love with are extraordinary, either they were near genius level intelligent, incredibly unique someway or true artists.
How can someone develop feelings for basic people?
I'm not putting anyone down necessarily, I just want to understand how to develop feelings for someone who isn't that interesting. I'm baffled by people who can.
It would help me personally too as I wouldn't need to be chasing after amazing people who are hard to get, and can just fall for any old person.

Either you're an emotional retard, or this is bait. Either way there is no helping you.

>Look at me, I'm such a special snowflake I can only love other snowflakes!
Quick question: How many times have you been "in love"? And how many times did she "love" you back?
>>
>>18634972
I never said I was special myself, I just fall for the special people.
I've been in love twice, and both men (I'm a girl) did not love me back, although one said he had feelings for me (but we were never together)
Of course they didn't love me back, I can accept that they were way out of my league.
Which is why I want to know how you can develop feelings for normal people who are in my league.

I woke up with a slight tingle in my pelvic area and I think it might be the beginning of a UTI. I don't want to go to the doctor's unless I have to, what can I do to prevent it from developing further and/or flush it out? 20/M and not sexually active.

This, OP. Drink a shit ton of it.

Drink a large glass of water every 30 minutes, or more if you're not peeing constantly.
If you have pain in the balls, then go to the doctor, you might need antibiotics.

Hello fellow anons.
A good while back I made a thread where people could ask for help, advice and counseling for whatever they wanted.
I am not a mental health professional, I just legitimately wanted to help (despite expecting a shitstorm of trash coming my way).
I was surprised with how educated and how respectful everyone, yes, everyone on the thread was. Many of them appreciated the help (and if I was not exactly helpful, at least appreciated the outsider's input), and that drove me to want to try again, which I will now.
So please, ask me anything, let me help. You are all great people with a lot of potential, I know that, and I don't care what everyone says.
tl;dr.: Ask me anything - i'll try to advise and help the best I can.

I often want to kill myself when I'm in public because of my cowardance. However when I am alone I am very encouraged. How can I not be suicidal. Thank you.

I work a 9-5 job. When i come back home i want to work on projects... improve my self etc. But my mind becomes so muddy after a few days i just can't focus. Think of other stuff. Some sort of anxiety kicks in. I lack the discipline and i dont know how to build it. The moment i feel like im not being productive i procrascinate. Sometimes i feel like i could really keep it up. But then after a few days after motivation dies out it starts feeling like a routine

I'm going back to uni soon after being away from the country for four months.
Prior to leaving for the summer, I was texting this girl who seemed really cool. We had joked around, and even agreed to go on a date sometime. But the timing was wrong, since we had exams and then the summer right after. However, I want to text her when I go back. She genuinely seemed cool and I did want to date her. How do I just text her after months without it seeming weird or creepy? I don't want to weird her out because I'm genuinely interested in her. Thanks lads.
