Any medfags on?
I regularly get really dizzy and often fall over. My vision generally blurs or goes completely black. Lately the spells have been getting worse, and my mouth or face tingles and feels warm.
I've talked to my doctor about it, and got the "drink more water" advice, but it's not working. I'm on some medications that might be contributing, but I can't go off of them. The meds are for bipolar disorder, psychosis, anxiety, and OCD. I've also had my brain scanned recently after having stroke-like symptoms, and came back with a clean bill of health.
So aside from drinking more water, is there anything I can do to prevent myself from fainting/falling? I've gotten really good at catching myself and falling into a sitting position, but I'd love it if it happened less often. I talk to my doctor again in a few days.
I didn't have a related picture.
See a different doctor because that one is clearly retarded.
Sounds like something I share with my brother

Well, she screened me for stroke and MS. She said that MS was her main concern, but I came up totally clean. We discussed going off of my meds, but decided they were too necessary. I might discuss switching meds at this next visit.
hi . is it normal that i feel really turned on by posting my gf hot pics here. sometimes we spend time on Omegle and i also feel turned on when she show tits to someone or similar things. we could never cheat on each other and we have nice and long relationship but i don't know why that turns me on and makes my dick hard. btw, sex is exelent and i'm generaly jalouse person (and it's not my gf in the related pic.)

100% bait, but I'd still fuck her until she cries.

Hi /adv/.
Saturday night i hooked up with a cool, foreign girl after being introduced to her at a pub. We ended up having lovely sex all night and morning, smoking weed and talking. For me it was really special, i've never experienced these feelings during and after a one-night stand. We talked a lot, laughed, kissed, and i felt really good in her company. Two days later i still get butterflies thinking about her, i'm not really sure what it is. She's a really free spirit and i'm by nature somewhat shy, and i'm wondering wether that could(or should) be an issue. I felt this really great connection to her and i'm wondering if there's some way I could find out if she felt that too, without asking her. She seemed to like my company too, but how could i better tell if that was the case? Sorry if i'm rambling a bit, but I just really need to come to terms with this, i'm not really used to these emotions. Any answer would help :)
the feeling will go away after some time or after a fap
Anon you have to ask her first. If she's into you she will say it if it was a one-time thing she'll tell you.
Sucks I had one. She was my first talked chilled and then as fast as it happened she forgot about it. I felt used after that a girl told me "there is no true love" I'll prove that slut...
>>17125745
maybe, but I kinda hope not.
>>17125826
defender of the faith, good for you. I'm scared shitless of the thought of asking her :(
I'm 20. I have a good job that leaves me room to advance and pays well. There's an equal number of women/men. They're all of the same culture, background, etc and I always feel left out.
One day one of the guys noticed me and invited me out after work. We had sex. It was a mistake and I wish I didn't. But I liked the company, because I don't have many friends. Then a few nights later another coworker offered me a ride home and out of no where started to kiss me and rub me. It was really awkward and uncomfortable but I didn't say anything. Now even more of the guys will talk about me and blow me kisses and all that. And the girls give me stares.
I just want to be left alone and I feel really depressed. But this is a very good job for me.
I want to die. I don't know what to do.
Holy shit that second guy sounds like a total creep. You should have blackened his eye at least. Wew lad.
>people treat me a certain way because of my actions
Golly gee, who would have though that?
>>17125557
Either keep being seen like a whore ot get another job and don't fuck up this time. Sorry but no matter what you do now, it's way too late to save your image.
I have diagnosed Major Depressive Disorder with melancholic features. I take SNRIs on a daily basis at the recommended dosage (for the last 1.5 years), and it pretty much keeps things on track in terms of being able to function. I can work, have a good relationship, go to gym, and can hold a social life insofar as I show up to events, chat and all that. My depression is basically gone barring the odd bout when something triggers me.
My problem is I am finding it goddamn hard to get into the things I used to enjoy. I was once very much into reading philosophy/politics, enjoyed binge watching series, and just general banter. Now it feels like a chore and I just seem to be going through the passage of time doing things with no real strong connections. It is all fine, just not really inspiring or worthwhile; I would rather be, well, I am not even sure. Most of my time seems squandered being listless and absent minded.
I have pin pointed it down to the following things as causes (or a confluence of the three):
>My mother dying, making me despondent (I was on medication before that).
>The medication dulling things, which is what they are intended to do.
>The MDD itself.
Does anyone have any advice regarding how to get back into things? Similar experiences?
>>17125556
Talk to your doctor about what you're experiencing--maybe a modification to your meds dosage is in order! Allow yourself to grieve over your mom, and try to avoid thinking of your hobbies in negative terms...as soon as one of those words pops up in your head--stop and tell yourself that that's not true and try to resume or do another activity that you liked--or even discover new ones! GL!
>>17125603
Thanks. I found your advice regarding avoiding thinking negatively about my hobbies useful; I do tend to think negatively and give in to the absent feeling.
Right now, writing this post, I went, "Why bother replying?" and then I told myself to "Stop, remember you enjoy thanking people for their help."
So, yeah, thanks, anon. I'll keep trying that one.
>>17125556
Try a (temporary) change of environment. Travel, get away from your routine for a weekend, or more, if you can afford it. Taking a break may refresh your interest in what you used to enjoy. Also, everything this guy said:>>17125603
How do i make sure not to get fucked as a seller on Ebay?
Seems everything is on the side of the buyer.
What do you mean? You put up your item the buyer pays and you send it. Done.
>>17125537
>Someone wins a bid
>You don't get any money or even postage money until you pay out of your pocket and ship the product first and upload tracking number
>Once you do you may either have to wait 7 or even 21 days for payment despite buyer getting the product because of some bullshit paypal policies
>You even get taxed from ebay and paypal when you sell something
Selling looks kinda shitty here.
>>17125528
>Seems everything is on the side of the buyer.
Isn't that kind of how it works for like, every seller everywhere?
Hey /adv/.
Ive never really posted or lurked here before and I'm sure you get a lot of threads like these, but I'd love some advice on what to do.
This morning my girlfriend of a very very long time broke up with an extremely hypocritical excuse. I haven't really been phased at all by the break up but I can feel it affecting me more and more as time goes on.
Do you guys have any advice on how to quickly get over a girl? Or at least things will help take my mind off of her until I can forget for good.
pic un-related. Its Dave Mustaine.
I know exactly how you feel I just went through a similar situation. All I did to take my mind off her really was to put my mind on other things. I started talking to a lot of different girls and put my mind on one thing and focused on that. This might seem like simple generic advice but it really does work. Good luck OP sorry for your loss
>>17125520
Have you considered alcoholism? Works for me.
/mu/ has some pretty nice solutions if you're into music
My friends class is having a high-school graduation party, I have ticket. He went to mine. He's been messaging me twice the last week about it, I haven't answered. The party is today, I really don't feel like going. What do
>>17125489
Time to just tell your friend that you're not feeling up to it at this point, OP! Truth is best BUT if you have to make up something, saying that "something came up" can be somewhat accurate, even if that "something" is mundane. GL!
I've known him for a really long time, and I don't feel like blowing him off. We're good friends, and I feel like I don't see him enough. These types of parties are basically clubbing - you can't even talk. It will be full of strangers and the alcohol will cost mad-much.
>>17125502
Then you need to commit to going, nurse one drink if you can for as long as possible (so not to spend so much money), smile and try to stay close to him. Try to at least make it through 15 mins before giving a reason to leave--maybe even offering an alternative to being there if you still want to spend time together!
I'm fat, but I want to lose weight. Fact is, I have no idea how. I allready eat healthier, no junkfood or soft drinks.
There's no gym near and I have no friends nor family to help me, any advice?
I am 1,74cm and my weight is 143,6. I just want to lose 20-30kg, any advice?

Eat less, move more.
If you eat fewer calories than you use in a day, you'll lose weight. It's not easy, but it IS simple.
Make small changes to your lifestyle and diet that you can stick to. Harsh short-term solutions don't work because you (like everybody else) won't stick to them.
Expect it to take a year. Don't make a plan you can't see yourself sticking to for a year.
I told my gf I'm against abortion and the pill and now she won't have sex with me anymore.
>>17125447
You got off easy. I'd have dumped you on the spot.
>>17125451
I think it's the same
She doesn't respond to my messages
Why do women have to be such cunts? If she's scared of getting pregnant, she shouldn't have spread her legs in the first place
>>17125453
That what she's doing now. Enjoy.
How do you get past being afraid of talking on the phone? I have a crippling fear of making phonecalls, even if it's something I absolutely need to do. I can't even call about something as inconsequential as ordeting a goddamn pizza.
Has anyone moved past similar problems?
>>17125443
Can you do things in person?
>>17125450
It makes things easier but for things like paying bills I have to do it over the phone and I always avoid it until the last possible moment.

Are you from a 3rd world country?
So recently ive been faced with this question alot...
Why when a man sleeps with lots of women is he a player yet a woman does the same and shes a slut?
My thought was always that men dont respect their bodies and women do
Also men have obv way more testosterone
MALE AND FEMALE anon answers please...
I would like a concrete answer so i can end this looping conversation
Cheers
>>17125442
Because women always know their baby belongs to them. The man doesn't know unless the woman is faithful. If the man is sleeping around, no biggie. If the woman is sleeping around, the paternity of her child is in doubt.
I'm a young male.
Truthfully, I don't really care either way.
It's not my thing.
I suppose there is a natural inclination to be jealous/envious of men who are able to easily get with women because so many of us find it difficult to become intimate with others.
I think it's for that same reason that some men are jealous of women, as typically, a women doesn't have to be considered above-average in order to engage in casual intimate relations with men, as a lot of men generally don't hold that high of standards.
I imagine the spite or distaste that women have for other women who act in this manner likely spouts from either self justification, or a self-important sense of self respect.
As I stated though, I really don't care. I try not to look at male and female, but rather just people.
What it boils down to is: It's hard for you, so it's awesome if you can do it. It's easy for you, but that doesn't mean you should do it.
Just bullshit overall.
It's very simple.
Having sex as a woman is absolutely easy. There is very little effort involved. The average woman could ask most men she knew to have sex, and they would do so at the drop of a hat.
The average man on the other hand has to really work to get laid. They have to be confident, funny, conversational and entertaining before anything else. Getting laid as a man is a serious challenge.
Women are meant to be choosy because it's a biological imperative to choose the best genes for future offspring. On a base level, women who sleep with a lot of men lose respect from others because A/ they're easy and B/ they aren't selective.
It's not a matter of sexism, it's a matter of practicalities. Getting laid is easy for women and hard for men.
I've heard it is around 200 people competing for one tenured post so your chances of getting it is about as slim as you becoming the next Taylor Swift. Why would anyone want to do research then? Being in a publish-or-perish environment ain't fun. You will be flipping burgers if you have nothing published.
>>17125438
In fact I am giving up.
Maybe one day the world will realize that best outcomes are obtained by giving normal wages to everyone rather than going crazy about few 'super-professors' and tons of poor adjuncts.
But today is not that day.
>>17125457
See, this is why I do not get why anyone would want to do research. Your chances of becoming tenured are slim as fuck. It is less than one percent.
They dont know about the situation
I have been struggling to get people to like me, how can i improve my looks? The guy in the picture is me.
>>17125421
People like you based on personality, not looks.
I like you. Are you Brit?
>>17125421
honeslty?
you look creepy as fuck in that picture. It might just be the no neck thing because of the... whatever the fuck that is you're wearing.
I am from Hong Kong. People here tend to think of learning a new language as very difficult. Parents spend tonnes of money for the language education of their kids. Any kid who learns English quickly will be praised as adults think that this is very tough.
However, I've noticed that Anglos tend to talk about learning a new language as if it is very easy. You have sites like Fluent in 3 Months and similar webpages talking about how the author reached flunecy within less than a year. Similarly, I've seen Anglos posting online about how they became fluent in a new language in a short period of time. I've also met Language majors who became fluent in a new language within four years.
Why the attitude difference?
I want to make love to that dog
Coming from a small country in Europe, it's basically mandatory to learn English early if we are ever going to have a shot in the global world. My language is spoken by roughly 8 million people on earth. That's it. I'm sure Hong Kong alone have more than 8 million in their city that speak Cantonese/Mandarin, the prospects are simply better. It's not as important to learn a new language the more people on earth that speaks that language because you are already able to communicate with a lot of people.
It's just a different approach because of the culture.
Anglos valuate effectiveness and efficiency.
