Yes. That and supply chain logistics are the top tier business degrees on the market right now.

>>17146955
Do you know anyone who is in this field? Everyone I talk to are a year or two ahead of me in schooling

>>17146966

Yes. I did my undergrad at the U of A. Sam Walton school of business there is a top tier business school nationally, they're consistently in the top 5 or 10. Lots of people I know got into MIS. A lot of them fast tracked into Walmart etc due to their connections.

You might have some brain damage, I would go talk to a doctor

How long do you tend to regulate your sleep for, and how often are you attempting to change your schedule?

What kind of environment are you in before you go to sleep? What typically occurs in during the time in which you are sleeping? Have you considered recording yourself sleep to see if there aren't outside factors contributing to your unrestfulness? When you wake up, do you immediate get up, or lie in bed for a bit? How is your blood pressure? Do you drink large quantities of caffeine, or consume lots of simple carbs?

Well this is a problem I face daily, I turn off alarm after alarm and later regret it, and the only things that have helped me are one , to drink a ton of water before sleep, to haveore urges to pee in the morning, and the other one is to sleep a nap before actually going to bed, like a 15 or 20 min nap, it doesn't make me getting up early a whole lot easier, but it certainly helps

How much are you spending on the ring out of curiosity?

>>17146792
I want to spend about $1900-2100 on the diamond alone and then probably $300-400 on the rest of the ring, so realistically probably about $2400. Using the bluenile.com diamond search thing as if I were going to just buy online, I'm able to find diamonds G color, Ideal cut, VS1 clarity, and about .6-.64 carat size for this range. I realize .6-.64 isn't that big but neither is my budget.

I am hoping I can find the same deals in person if I go to a store.

>>17146788

Look up reviews online, word of mouth from other people is a good source too.

Try to go for a local place or small local chain, avoid those big franchise places like Kay or Jareds. And for fucks sake avoid everything in a mall.

>>17146743
Why is it taking so long to see a psych doctor if you really need one, OP?! You may want to switch whatever is holding you back (doctor's office, insurance plan, etc.). Try to find someone else to talk to in the meantime...there are hotlines out there, or maybe talk to a priest or someone who can just listen objectively and may be able to advise you. GL!

>>17146794
I'm being held back by their lack of resources. The funds for out glorious socialist welfare state's public health care are being cut because the gap between the rich and the poor isn't large enough.

I am currently trying to figure out who else to go talk to, so far 4chan is being my best option. I'm not religious, and protestants don't do this "confessional box" thing and I don't think a priest would support my life choice of being a tranny disaster anyhow.

Lemme guess, it's the anon who needs a shrink for working through self-harm issues and signing off on HRT?

My suggestions are to start with standard coping mechanisms: exercise is a good replacement for self-harm since it also hurts and releases endorphins, but on the plus side actually helps your health and you can show off the results more easily.
Doing that right now myself, exhausted today. Probably going to wake up feeling like i got hit by a bus again.

There's also meditation, works for some people. And CBT programs you can try online, also works for some.
People who respond to one usually respond to the other too.

After that, there's more maladaptive coping, like workaholism and alcoholism.

Then there's over-the-counter and legal drugs, we'll get to that if you've exhausted the above.

Then go do it, before you marry and fuck her life up. It won't pass. You can regret what you lost afterwards.

>>17146721
I don`t think that relationships that began below your 20s (just a thumb rule) are destined to be succesful. Your desires obviously don`t fit what is considered stable and commited, which is understandable your age.

Don't fuck it up. You're going to have urges to sleep with other women because that's natural, but if you truly love your girlfriend enough you'll value your relationship more than some pussy.

Sounds like you overthink it, there are some great Ted talks on the subject.
In regards to presenting, do you make a transcript that you read through?
How do you prepare?

>>17146702

Usually I prepare a speech about the subject and try to study a lot about it to make sure I talk about everything I need to cover. I always have a ppt where I write the keypoints to avoid forgetting something.

What Ted Talks do you recommend?

thanks anon

>>17146733

Do you prepare the actual presentation?
I does wonders to stand in an empty room and practice your transcript. Try to just 'present' articulate and use your own words to explain the transcript you've made. It makes your presentation authentic and lessens the chance that you'll stop midway and think over the words.

> prioritizing potential offers based on location
This is why we have invented "rent an apartment" thingy. Do you know you can get decent paying job in shitty area, try being there for a while and still looking for better places? And if you find yourself enjoying the place, you can stay.

Also chances of getting better jobs in better areas are higher with gained experiences in your current job. So as long as you don't accept some bullshit like "I have to work here for X years before I can go elsewhere" you are free to do whatever you like.

Just read your work employment contract carefully for such clauses.

>>17147578
Are you like 14?
You clearly have no fucking clue about whats going on here....

>>17146657

OP take the job thats the most "ok"ish on offer abd stick it out. After you have exp. In your feild then move. Then again as man child above me said you may like what you find in the more rural areas...

>Is it possible to literally live your entire life in a constant state of stress? Is it possible to have permanent stress for literally no reason?
Yes, it's called GAD.

>How do you reduce stress when there's literally no cause of stress?????
You go to a doctor and get medication for it.

>>17146648
I've been diagnosed with depression and left untreated for like 4-5 times now.

How do I convince them that I actually have a problem that needs to be treated, and actually GET treatment?

>>17146653
Go to a different doctor.
If you've been to 3 and they all say the same thing, do what they say.

>>17146611

No, really smart realistic people give the best advice.

>>17146611
They can, but not all of them do. Figruring out which omes to take advice from can be tricky.

>>17146611
On the average, yes. Simply because they have more life experience. But obviously it's a case by case basis. And it also depends a lot on what you want advice for.

I'm an older guy and like to think I give better /adv/ice than most people, just due to my life experience.

On the one hand she isn't your gf so you don't get to be possessive of her... But on the other hand she is signaling to hat she knows you are interested by doing to you what her "exes did to her" and trying to justify it that way.

Basically take note of her behavior and decide if her personality is one that you like enough to deal with this sort of thing.

You have no relationship, so you have literally nothing to be paranoid over.

>>17146621
Will do.

I've asked her a couple times if we are gonna keep this going when she comes back and at first she said yes, and then(about a week ago) she said that it's hard to say because she hasn't seen me in so long and the distance is messing with her. I get that, and can understand what she's saying. So now I'm questioning whether or not she still likes me, or if it really is the distance.

It's hard for me because I'm at home, just going to work and not much else. She's in Europe, going to different countries and all this. So I appear really needy, texting her all the time and stuff and that makes me feel like a bitch.

I'm considering not talking to her while she's in Europe, just because I don't want what we have to fade even more, but I don't want her to lose all interest and find someone new or something either.

I forgot to mention, I'm planning on asking her to prom, but I'm not sure how I can isolate her from her friends.

Don't overthink it, just say happy birthday. On another day, ask if she wants to go out with you.

OP here. I wrote "It's your birthday so let's fuck!"
Hope she laughs.

Have been through this. Stop masturbating right now. Don't do it again till along time after you are cured. Next step is getting used to a condom on, have her give you hand jobs without or try anal if she is willing (tighter). There is now a mental and physical aspect of it, stimulation and the fear of going limp. This fear you need to get over by proving you can do it. Should be overcome by the first its of advise. Are you under a lot of pressure from studies or work?

>>17146471
Ps have been in your situation

>>17146480
No more masturbation is a given at this point. I've deleted all the shit I had saved on my tablet/PC and will be keeping away until this is solved.

I'm not under pressure from work at all, there's nothing that preocupies my mind during the act, it's just that I need maximum focus with absolutely no sounds or anything to distract me when masturbating, which affects me when I try to do it during sex.

What are you good at?
What are your symptoms?

Go to school.

>>17146423

I don't really have symptons as far as I know, I'm a bit slower at understanding things, and sometimes its hard for me to explain myself. My current job says they calculated I work about 60% of what a normal person without autism would work. They do say that they like that i work slowly at times, cuase i get things done right instead of quickly rushing things.

>>17146446

Unfortunatly School isn't an option for me right now

>>17146271
Sorry in a rush.

IM TERRIBLE AT COMFORTING PEOPLE WHAT DO I DO?

Shut up. Let her talk. Listen and actually listen, tell her your they're for her. But fucking listen, don't fake it

I'd bounce desu
