>>16919426 i wish my life was as shitty as yours. The choice is obv. Take The job and tell The bitch youre working to provide her massice shills

>>16919426
Take the job, as this opportunity may not come to you in the future. If she cares about you and your family's well-being, she'll understand. How much longer will it be until she's done with school? Because if it's less than 5 years, you taking this job will be a great start for your future. It seems like a long time but it'll pass quickly when you're busy.

She's got 2 years left. We've been together for ~2 years

Seems you know what you want to do already. Just do it. There is no secret to picking up hobbies, same way as there is no secret to picking up women.

It's not black and white, if you wanna read more books then go to a store and buy some fucking books.

I'm a college guy in a fraternity who enjoys sports, literature, and cooking, as well as anime and manga. You just like what you like, that's it.

>>16919412
You try different things out and decide what you want to get good at. I like bowling and snowboarding.

Same here, brother. I have no fucking willpower at all. I can't even attend night class a few nights a week without skipping a few. I have a 2015 fender stratocaster sitting on my wall and I can't even pick it up and play. I have all these aspirations in life but can't get off my ass to get shit done. I keep waiting for the day I "snap" and motivation surges through my veins and I take everything I want.... but it seems to be the day that never comes.

I feel the same way guys
The only thing that actually pushes me to be active with my life with rather big doses of adderall.
I would recommend talking to your doctor about it and see what kinda drugs they can give you to help you out.

>meat
>raw meat

If it would honestly gladly eat cooked meat, go for it I guess. But raw meat has too much bacteria and parasites, and likely wherever you got this Ferret from doesn't have he Immune System for it due to being fed Storebought food.

Use the pellets. If you're concerned about treating your ferret, there are all kinds of yummy treats, cheese based snacks, and pastes that my Ferrets try to pry the lids off to snack on.

If youre like most people, you're gonna hate the smell. Hopefully the scent glands were removed, otherwise you can do that by Vet. If you dont have the money, there are special Oils you can drop into their Water to reduce scent by a lot.

I SERIOUSLY RECOMMEND getting a second Ferret once you get the hang of the first. They are very social animals and depending on how much timr you have in a day to play, they get VERY lonely. The first one I owned stopped eating because I was at work almost 7 hours a day.

Litterboxes can be as simple as shredded newspaper (comes specially cubed and shredded in Pet Stores) or you can go fancy with Scent-Blocking Super Absorbtion Lavender Scented shit.

They usually find corners to poop in if they're walking insidr your house, thank god. But they usually just piss wherever. I bought a bulk pack of Shop Towels and some basic Pet Stain Remover. I dont even get bothered if they piss on me now. I just tie a Bathrobe over me during playtime.

1: Dont take drugs.
2: Find something in life you enjoy, besides isolating yourself.

>>16919183
When you say drugs do you mean SSRIs or other drugs in general? Because I did used to take a lot of drugs but I've decided to move away from that now.

>>16919189
Everything, there is nothing that cant be cured without pills, before pills where invented they used conversations and herbs to heal people. dont take that shit.

Hey man, I've been there. I persevered through uni and then took off overseas to escape the bubble that was my life. It's been tough at times but I don't regret it in the slightest.

In terms of your studies, it's just a matter of pushing through. I'd recommend going part time for a while if you can afford it but if not, what can you do except maybe take up a reduced study load if you don't mind extending your time at university a bit? It's a matter of how long you can maintain burning the candle at both ends, as it stands.

>>16919187

i'd like to take a break, but then i'd completely fall behind and i don't think i could catch up again. it'd probably be for the best if i did only take one course at a time, but then i get reduced financial aid.

you had that trip planned for after university? how did that go?

Hell, man. We should have a one-of-these-threads general since it's so common around here.
I'm in a similar boat, btw:

>no aspirations in life that don't make me feel guilty and egotistical
>second to last semester pre-med student
>almost 30 y.o.
>behind in studies out of sheer negligence (i didn't show up to classes during whole semesters)
>studying just in order to get more money
>work part time
>have gf but don't really care much about her
>live with parents for the time being

I cannot bring myself to give the slightest bit of a fuck about my studies or work (used to, then I realized fucking company keeps 75% of my paycheck), but I cannot imagine what I would rather do instead.

Halp.

I'll cut to the actual advice and suggest therapy. You've done a good thing in identifying that this impulse and your low self-esteem are not good for you. Do something about it.

>>16919175
Yeah, I know i need therapy. I was just interested in the subject of lying, since I see a lot of people on here telling various white lies to their spouses and such. I think it affects you on a subconscious level, for instance making you more untrusting of others.

>>16919157
I used to lie a lot when I was a teenager, but after being caught, I stopped. I'm now blunt and very honest, sometimes to a fault, but people seem to respect that. And if you have weird, awkward stories from being young, then it will make you seem more human. Humans are imperfect creatures.

For example, when I was in middle school, I was in art club with a few good friends. We took a trip to the arts section of the local college and had an assignment where we had to draw depictions of the Holocaust. I don't know what happened to me, but I started feeling hot and cold as soon as we got there. I went to the bathroom and immediately started shitting and vomiting EVERYWHERE. And there was no way for me to clean it up. It was also one room with a toilet, so it's not like there were stalls around for others to use--there was a line outside. They were out of paper towels too. I tried to hide my shame, but it happened again 30 minutes later. I think they knew something was up, but I couldn't just leave. My friend told me to eat something and got me some apple juice. Same thing happened a third time, and at that point, the bathrooms on that part of campus were on lockdown until they could clean it up. On the way back, with my jacket wrapped around my waist and my shit-smeared pants, another friend piped up, "What the fuck is that? It smells like a zoo out here." And then my grandma came to pick me up and was freaking out, as I was trying to keep myself from chunking in the back of her car. And when I got home, I stayed on the toilet (by candlelight), shitting my guts out while vomiting into the trashcan as my mom hand washed my soiled underwear in the sink.

Friends make me tell these stories at parties, because they think it's hilarious, and it makes use out of my "tragic" past. Embarrassment is a good way to connect with people.

The only two ways you're going to make decent money are:
1) personal connections in the industry or
2) being sought after for your qualifications and experience.

Obviously you're right in that the amount of money you're being offered is insufficient. I suggest being patient, getting whatever certs you can while you're working your current job and looking to get more hours and/or a better position. Right now you don't have anything attractive to offer.

>>16919134
How was PC technician gig? I am looking into that industry

>>16919166
It's alright, that's what I do now, pay is crap though, which is why I made this post.

Going in I had never used a Windows or Linux computer in my life. I had no experience with hardware, or software installations. I just had my degree from a good school (in RoR dev and Node dev) so I was hired because they needed more people with degrees.

>Someone bumped my old ass thread that got no attention
Thanks

I dropped out of college but didn't withdraw from my classes. Ended up with 3 F's on my transcript. I went back to college 4 years later. Eventually re-took those classes. Ended up graduating with a 3.4 GPA.

You either need to man up with the proper help of course, whether it's medication or therapy, or just take a break. You could talk to someone in administration and most likely be put on some sort of academic probation.

i want to eat only meat because i m neanderthal and heterosexual

the fuck is a cucurbit??

also, OP make sure your almonds are activated

>>16918677
See this sounds good on paper but what all good diets need is variation.

Have some base ingredients that are healthy (fish, veggies, chicken, etc.) And find different dishes that have them.

But yeah you're fucked.

Since you have no tolerance, you will most likely immediately throw up, waste your time, waste money and be found laying in a pool of vomit.

>>16944505

i have a pretty strong stomach. i have a history of a lot of DXM (cough syrup) use and it kinda made it so that i almost never vomit from anything. do you think if i added benadryl it would make a difference? i have 450mg of that. or maybe something to settle my stomach, too (although benadryl does that for me)?

EMT here, nope. Pills are about the worst way you can try to kill yourself, all that cocktail is going to do is make you extremely sick and a few hours into complete agony everyone calls 911 no matter how much they wanted to die. Then you get taken to a hospital and your stomach gets pumped but the amount of pills that got absorbed by your system absolutely KILLS your liver and most people who attempt suicide by pills end up with liver failure ~a decade later.

And as the other guy said since you have no tolerance for alcohol you'll just going to get sick and vomit it up long before you get anywhere near alcohol poisoning.

If you want to kill yourself your best bets are to just use a gun, helium inhalation, or hang yourself, very low failure rates.

English

Depends.. Would you get a loan or do you live in a country where education is free?

>>16943912

Probably any degree if you're not going to join a trade or go to vocational school. Lesser degrees are stuff like music, language, gender studies, archaeology, unless you want to continue working in academia, which isn't a bad goal if that's what you want.

But really, it's all in what you do with it. Getting a degree is a prerequisite to just getting your foot in the door in most cases, though.

It's fun to feel like satan and jesus at the same time. I like playing guru. I love all of you motherfuckers/

I want to kill myself but too scared to do it

I have nothing to say...

>>16942948
Interesting results. I'll add this to my observation notes.

>>16942948
Go to a therapist

>>16942948
Yea, you can read it even on wiki that drugs can accelerate mind problems when you are weak willed or with hidden problems.

Stay clear of drugs.

>Physicists, philosophers and other academics
Stop reading such literature if you can't live with the information it gives you.
>I'm afraid
Stop being afraid anon and keep living your life.
>mean for my mental health and sanity
Until you develop depression and ask 4chan how to suicide, you don't have problem. Go eat a cookie or something.

Its something I'd expect a 15 year old goth girl to wear.

Forgot to say, it is way darker, not as shiny as in the pic

looks like you are some guy interested in devil things. And maybe insecure when you have to ask about this on 4chan :-D

>look childish?
Never seen anything like that on adult person so yes.
