Had two bad nosebleeds today, and now I have a blood clot sticking out of my right nostril. Do I pull it out and almost certainly have another nosebleed, or leave it as it is?
Also every time I put paper to my right nostril it leaves a small spot of fresh blood.
Am I about to bleed out and die, or will pulling out the clot help?

Pls send help this is the first time I've had a nosebleed this bad.

i get them sometimes
the way i look at it is this: there is only a certain amount of blood in there. so i just blow it all out max psi and it stops. there are a few times when it seems like it will not stop, like it pours. then i wad up a piece of tissue and shove it into the bleeding nostril and pull it out /put in new like every 10 minutes.

I'm a woman, slightly older than this website's demographic but I fit into the "slightly autistic, probably quite smart".
I am not unhappy being alone. I would just like to make new friends and maybe date a bit. However, I just don't know where to meet people now. I never really went to party but I no longer go to school and there aren't that many people my age at church or the FLGS. Nobody really talks to each other at the gym. I tried online but I don't find many people with similar interests and who are respectful of my religion (Europe is pretty secular). Where else could I look?

I'm seeing this girl, and I really like her. I also like showing my affection, especially by kissing. However, she often pushes me away when I try to show it. It never feels good trying to kiss someone and they jerk their head away.
When I want to be alone, say no to hanging out with her or just act distant when we're together, that's when she shows the most interest, not being able to keep her hands off me or nagging me to let her come over. I love when she shows interest in me but she only does it when I'm acting distant, and not when I show affection. I dont want it to be that way, what am I doing wrong?

Ok,diagnostic mode. How old are you. How old is she. Has she been in a relationship before?

She is acting a bit conflicted, which is fine in age 12 to 15, but should be clear by 16+.

Plus she is acting like she isn't sure if she wants it. By 16 she should be totally clear that she wants it - a lot.
>>
>>18608177

Either you two are too young or too dumb. Either way, don't stay in a relationship that makes you feel bad. Learn to say "no" and don't be bribed by "affection" that only shows up when you are leaving.

I can't get over the feeling I'm a coward. I have so many fears and anxieties, and each time I confront one it feels like I'll never be able to get over it. It doesn't help that I feel like this cowardice trait will be baked into my thought if I don't sort it out before 25. How do I go about making myself less of a coward?

Pick your absolute worst fear, get hyped about dealing with it, and everything else is easier.
Or join the army, seems to sort a lot of people out.

>>18608308
Shit, that's a good idea. What if my biggest fear is something like having my life ruined or my peer group ostracizing me though?
>>
>>18608151
you're no coward, feeling fear is natural, and it's possible for your wildest most irrational fears to come true. you just have to learn to control upon what urges you act on.

challenge yourself and remember that in the beginning you'll fail most of your challenges and you'll feel even more fearful and anxious, but as long as you keep on going you'll improve

What's the most comfortable piece of furniture for prolonged periods of sitting while reading? My room doesn't have much space, so I'm considering buying Ikea Poäng. Any other suggestions?

the poäng is oretty comfy, but i prefer unusual positions when reading, so sitting straight in a chair won't cut it. the poäng has wooden arm chairs, so thatms not very comfy to "slouch" in. i prefer a huge bean bag. that way i can adjust my position as i please and always have the right support in the right areas.
>>
>>18608149
Poang is the right choice. I have it, it's excellent.
>>
>>18608162
also, if you get the poäng, buy the foot rest with it. trust me.

Is it hard to win a girl's heart? Basically I'm talking to this girl about dating and having some fucking. She said you'll have to fuck my heart first.

If she has a crush on you, then just keep doing what you are doing. She is clearly into it.

Don't kiss her out of the blue. Hold her or hug her first, to break the ocntact barrier. Have fun.

To be fair, she sounds crazy, but good luck.

I can talk to people, go to parties, smile, tell jokes and laugh. But in my head, I have serious problems. Panic attacks, anxiety fits, existential crises, chest pains, throat tightness, dry mouth, pains in my skull from all the stress all while talking to a group of 5 people about how I think it'd be great for organic grapefruit fleshlights would be the latest sex toy trend. I'm so good at acting normal that psychologists deem me to be a normal and mentally healthy person. Sometimes I get so depressed I zone out in the corner of my screen with my eyelids barely cutting my vision off. What's wrong with me?

Why arnt you letting out your really thoughts and emotions. Holding them in more only make it worse. As a kid were you encouraged to keep your feelings to yourself?

>>18608134
Your a normal person, congratulations. Now just try and imagine that most everyone you consider "stable" is going through the same shit in their head and when they're alone. Deal with it and find some people that understand it.

Not encouraged in the sense that others would do so, but encouraged in the sense that my environment simply made it beneficial for me to keep them to myself

Been trying to get closer to this one girl I work with. She's super cute and we have several similar interests. She's super into Marvel and we went and saw Spiderman when it first came out, then spent a few hours after the movie just walking and talking. However I was pretty awkward is asking. Now she has me borrowing the Marvel movies she has that I haven't seen yet. I've been keeping contact with her and we hung out one on one again last Monday, but both times I couldn't bring myself to be blunt and say I wanted a date. When I asked her to hang out with me on Monday, I was shaking real bad and half my face was hidden behind cardboard I was holding, but she still agreed and we had fun. She's pretty smart, and she said she would like to do it again sometime when we parted ways on Monday. So I don't doubt she could've picked up on what I was trying to do.

I'll see her a bit this weekend at work, I wanted to either/both A. Be blunt and tell her what I actually wanted both when we saw the movie and we spent time together on Monday & B. Ask her out to dinner at a nice place nearby that does candlelight dinners. Do you think she already knows what my intent was? How would I go about explaining to her both I wanted them to be dates and asking her out to dinner?

So, for one, it's rare that "Hey wanna date?" works. There's like....literally no one doing this outside of middle school.

You need to keep taking her out. Go places with her, show her a good time. Get to know her, what to say and what not to. Eventually it will happen if it was ever going to.

Women almost always have an intuition about what men want from them. Men have the problem of never thinking they understand. If she went out with you, odds are she was interested enough to see what would happen.

Be cool, be you. Ask her out as many times as it takes until it feels right. It has to start casual. If you start by asking her do "be your girlfriend", odds are it won't work AND you'll have to continue working with her.

Has anyone done intermittent fasting?

I fast sometimes but it's usually because of depression. Idk if it's healthy but I haven't died yet so that count for something r-right?

Anyway I'm a spooky skellington because of it so I guess it works for weight loss if that's what you're going for.

I started uni 9 years ago, but never graduated due to clinical depression, apathy towards all subject matters/majors, and just generally not having any idea what I wanted to do with my life. I decided to major in Anthropology (I know, I know) because it seemed to have the most lenient graduation requirements; I was just looking for the easiest way out of school because I was sick of reading and writing about shit I don't care about, but still wanted a degree of some sort to make my resume look better. I didn't (and still don't) actually care all that much about the field and have no interest in any careers related to it (assuming those even exist). But I never actually finished the program.

I have 102 out of the required 120 credits to graduate. I don't know whether to just suck it up and finish the damn degree despite it being in a fairly-useless field or go in a completely different direction, which would take more time and money. The problem is I still have no clear idea what I want to do for a living; all I can think of is something low stress and easygoing. It's almost like I don't really care what it is I'm doing as long as the work environment is nice and the company treats its employees fairly.

Given my noncommittal attitude towards careers and life in general, should I just finish what I've started despite it not being the most useful of degrees? Maybe try to find a comfortable job somewhere that just wants someone with ANY degree? Like some generic civil service/paper pusher job? I don't know what to do. Maybe someone here's been in a similar situation and has relevant advice?

you might be able to transfer a lot of those credits to another major, talk to your advisor and find out.

Problem is I'm in the liberal arts college and most of the majors they offer are about on-par with anthropology in terms of usefulness. Not sure if switching to a different one would be a net gain, really.

There are some hard science degrees, but I'm a brainlet who cannot into math and shit. Getting through math and physics and biology in high school was enough of a struggle. Since I have no passion for any of those fields anyway, I think it's safe to just say I'm not cut out for them and look at other options.

So I've internalized that, as a man, no woman will "love me unconditionally" like the Disney stories say they will. They will love, sure, but it'll be conditional regarding what I can provide to her.

This has gotten me being equally skeptical about concepts of trust, loyalty and 'true' friendship, mainly with other men.

If the trope is to take women off the pedestal, should men be taken off the pedestal as well, as friends? They tell you in life that you'll only have 1-5 friends you can count on to have your back and be there for you when shit goes south, but I'm beginning to see the patterns of flakiness and selfishness in them too.

Is there anyone really in life that you can trust to not fuck you over? I know your parents are supposed to be that support for you, but what if you're not close to them or come from a fucked home? what then?

>So I've internalized that, as a man, no woman will "love me unconditionally" like the Disney stories say they will.
Good, It means you grew up.
>If the trope is to take women off the pedestal, should men be taken off the pedestal as well, as friends?
Definitely, we're talking about people after all, men aren't better than women morallywise like some want to believe in.
>Is there anyone really in life that you can trust to not fuck you over?
Yes and no, you can trust someone, but there's no guarantee that they will always be loyal to you, you have no control over this.
>I know your parents are supposed to be that support for you, but what if you're not close to them or come from a fucked home? what then?
Focus more in yourself than on the ability to depend on people, nobody owe you anything, even your parents, that's the harsh truth, if the quality of your life is dictated by how many people you have supporting you, then, be prepared to play a luck game for the rest of your life.

Try reading about stoicsm, its a good philosophy, and will help you to rely more on yourself than in others, so they will not have the power to fuck you over.
>>
Let me put it this way, what people want from you isn't always something you don't want to give away. As far as friends go, mine keep me around because they like my jokes and advice. I hang around them because I like their jokes and they care about what I have to say. No one will love you or like you unconditionally, but some people will love you or like you because of who you are. I mean do you only like your friends because you can mooch off of them?

Hi /adv/,

my best friend often criticizes me in very substantial personal traits. I deeply love her and she loves me, but she is currently ending (or not?) her last long-term relationship and it is not sure that we get together at some point. I hope to, but at this point (half a year after we told each other) I am just not sure anymore.

I definitely have some flaws that I need to work at, I am in therapy (depression) for a reason and do my best to treat her as good as I can. But since this critique goes on for quite a while and sometimes hit very deep I started to wonder if it is worth it to change myself so dramatically at so many points. Or will she stop to love the person I am to become, as he will be in some parts different from the person I was when she fell in love with me?

What do you think?

No she won't, find another girl

>>18608023
If she bond with a man to the point of falling in love with him while already in a relationship, she is not gf material, the same thing will happen to you, to her next bf, and to the next one, its never ending cicle. Find a woman who understand the boundaries of a relationship and accept who you are, don't change your substantial traits for anyone!(i even doubt its possible t b h) also, don't chase taken women, nothing good come out of it, have some self respect.
>>
You're disgusting for trying anything with a girl who's taken. It's shows you're weak and lack both morals and respect.

She's disgusting for cheating, same reasons. She won't be loyal to you or anyone else. It's a cycle that continues, the only difference is if she ever gets caught again.

Block her, and work on being something other than a week piece of shit.
