Subject says It all.
I feel absent whenever I am reading, going backwards most of the times to read and re read simple sentences because I just dont get em.
Not only that, but it takes me a ridiculous amount of time to read a page (5+ mins)
What the fuck is going on?

Why not? Would you prefer me to discuss about my gf cheating on me while fucking a bunch of BBCs and asking you if I should forgive her like the rest of /adv/?
I've been thinking about killing myself for a long time.
What should I do before ending my life? Should I leave a note?

You should leave notes, novels, books.
You should empty your head on words, drawings, photographies.
Death is not only the ceasing of life, it's a whole universe, your spirit, wits, imagination, that goes into the grave.
Even in desperate moments like this, your own universe is working.
Make a piece of it real.
Extend this piece to touch other people's mind and heart.
Art is a form of expression for sentiments and feelings, try them.
A dark hour is a bright writing.

Donate a kidney, a lung, etc. give as much back as you can.
>>
Don't fucking kill yourself.
Also, >>16896477 is full of shit. Depression is depressing, not super motivating to help you write fiction.

My thread from yesterday was archived so I'm going to add on to it. It's not the same thing as what I posted yesterday it's just a continuation. anyways here we go
I know of this girl at school. I don't have any classes with her but I see her in the halls sometimes. I find her very attractive. I requested to follow her on insta and she accepted and did the same. how should I go about starting conversation with her? or am I supposed to know the people to do that?

I've got the work and home phone numbers of my father who I have never met.
I want to meet him, but he's a very successful person and I have heard his reaction upon me contacting him will probably be embarrassment.

try to get his address. send him a personal letter. a letter lets you send the message to him and say exactly what you feel you need to say without being interrupted or assumptions being made. the personal touch helps.
>dear, XX
>my name is YY and it seems that I am your daughter. I have never contacted you for ZZ reasons, but since WW I've been feeling a bit VV and was hoping we'd be able to talk. i dont know if we'd end up connecting, or being penpals or just friends, or what have you. I'm not looking to have a bond, or this or that and the third thing, i don't need money, or any of that jazz. I simply hope to have at least one conversation with you to get a better understand of where I come from.
>if you'd like to reach me, please call me at QQ
obviously refine that to your personal touch. id harp on the 'im not looking to get anythign from you'.

>>16896391
Lol, I'm a guy, more emotional than most but still.
>>
>>16896396
my bad, i assumed daughter. i think you might have a better chance at meeting him. does he have any other children in his current life? sons in particular?
but like i said, just make sure in the first message you insist this isn't about getting anything from him. just that you want to meet. it may end with that one conversation. it ma go great places. but you get the idea.
personal letters are more real. an email the first assumption is 'is this a scam? or a prank?' phone calls are like 'i think you got the wrong number'.
but a personal letter is pretty precise.

you cant be expected to go to court for an unknown reason. thats not how the law works. either they served you or they didnt.
if you have a court date you HAVE to know why, otherwise you wouldnt be able to have your own legal team ready.
on top of that, if it was rape there'd be cops involved. you dont really 'sue' over rape. you press charges. and for that police have to be involved.
>>
Your lawyer doesn't contact you about a rape charge.

Tell the truth... don't get angry or defensive. Say your sorry for any misunderstanding... kill everyone with kindness. Bring your family. Hug your mom ect. Keep eye contact with anyone asking you questions...
I currently have 2 direct paths to take in my life.
The first is the obvious "study life"
I currently have a few more subjects i need to complete to get my HS diploma.
After that i will have to look forward to 3 years studying in college for a B-degree in computer engineering.
After that i have the possibility to study 2 more years for a Masters.
The second choice is to accept the job offer i got to work at a call center in a tourist island.
My pay would be rather low but i will have lots of opportunities to earn more the better I do.
I would most likely work about 6 months possibly the entire 2016.
To take this opportunity would effectively push the first option up until im done with this job. There is a slim possibility that ill quit school entirely, but that is not something that im thinking about doing.
Taking any of the options would effectively make me leave my parents house and start my life for real.
The reason im considering pushing school up even more is that im currently stuck in a very depressing environment. Taking this job would effectively "jumpstart" my adult life
Waiting for school to start would leave me in this situation for another 5-6 months.
None of the choices would make the other choices invalid to pursue in the future, the question really is just, how should i choose to spend my next 6 months?

Are you talking about doing the job before you've gotten your HS diploma, or just before college?
If the latter, it sounds like a pretty easy decision to make. [spoiler] take the job [/spoiler]
>>
>>16896355
Do the study life. It will open up more opportunities for you as time passes
>>
>>16896498
Could you explain why I should do it?
Pros/cons etc.

I have a brand new laptop, full of bloat ware. I would like to clean install Windows 10 but I am afraid I will be risking my computer's functionality in doing so. I can't seem to find any straight answer so I'll ask here: is doing a clean install of Windows on a laptop safe? I am a bit iffy on getting the drivers back installed.

yes. worse comes to worse, you'd just pirate windows 7 (which is essentially legal at this point

If you're still here, I'm at a point where I must delete or keep partitions. Is it safe to just delete them all and install the Windows file?

>>16896407
thats generally what you do. otherwise you'd have seperate partitions. hope you savfed the files you want to keep on an external tho

Where the fuck can I take an actual IQ test? I want to pay for an actual accredited and professionally administered Stanford binet or Wechsler test. I've tried googling around for testing centers and such but I haven't found anything. Are there any nationally recognized companies that do this stuff?

IQ tests are not accurate. Its how you perceive the question. Everyone thinks differently there is no wrong or right.

>needing to prove IQ
>thinking IQ means shit
Diagnoses: Autism.
I'm a psychology and neuroscience major and I'm really into the content. But it's changing the way I think for the worst I feel.
I'm constantly paranoid about myself and others. I feel like there's so much wrong with me and everything in my life. Based on what I've learned, I feel like a lot of it is beyond my control. I feel like my genetics and slightly fucked up last decade have ruined me. None of the advice people give me means anything because I feel like they have no idea what they're talking about, like if it disagrees with any widely accepted theories or findings pertaining to neurology and psychology I disregard it. I apply scientific principles to nearly every aspect of my life and it makes me feel miserable, powerless and depressed.
I'm going through a lot of shit right now and not even my therapist can console me. I disregard anything intuition-based. I hate it. Anyone else have this problem? How can I still accept and apply what I learn without being a paranoid robot? Any theories or findings that would constructively challenge my position would be greatly appreciated

You are human there is nothing wrong with having faults.No one is perfect under a microscope. Its your decisions you make that will decide for yourself who you are.
>>
>>16896277
I'm not a neuro-scientist, I can only give you advice that has worked for myself and others. For most people, that is enough evidence of truth to follow the advice, but for you, since I can't cite any studies or papers to back up what I say, I got nothing.
Let go of your pride there, college boy, and partake of some common wisdom, even if your 'highly developed mind' can't fully grasp it. That ego is gonna fuck you into more misery than you can yet comprehend.
>>
>>16896350
It's not even an ego thing. I'm not trying to brag. I can't stop myself from thinking this way and agree that it's excessive and unhealthy. That's what I've always tried to do, but it doesn't seem to work anymore. I figure I need to change my entire perception which I admittedly have no idea how to do, realistically

>Reposting from last night
Long story short, my ex and I still hang out, largely because we still have college classes together. She's met a new dude and when I learned that I immediately made sure it was okay her and I still hang out.
>I'm completely over her romantically, she's just a great friend
She says he knows about us, and that he's fine with us spending time together. But often when we hang out it goes way into the morning, like 4am plus, even though it's literally just us talking and listening to music.
What are the odds this dude starts to get jealous or something? I cherish our friendship but I don't want to fuck with her future.
Bros, if your girlfriend talked to her ex a lot, had classes with him, and stayed out with him about once a week until ~4am how would you feel?

i'd feel pretty suspicious desu

id feel awful, but since you told the guy is cool with it, fuck it. the moment he starts feeling jealous you stop hanging out. simple as that.
>>
>>16896263
The guy will tell ur ex to to stop talking to you. itll happen. Then shell have to choose. If she chooses you youll get together again.
I started dating my gf instantly after she broke up with her ex. She asked me if she can meet him. I said no. Best decision of my life.

I'm terribly hungry.
I've been unemployed for some time now, but going to school.
I'm going to school for a bullshit, humanities degree.
I'm considering dropping out to pursue an entry-level tech job.
What knowledge should I acquire before applying at businesses?
I know I should look into servers, routers, switches and basic Linux OS.
Any and all advice is helpful, thanks.

seems like you want to get into IT ? the only IT-related job you'll get without experience, certificates or some IT "degree" is a helpdesk job.
>>
>>16896266
Basically this, but go for
A+, network+, security+, Linux+ certifications before you attempt any entry level job.
Fortunately all those courses are free online, you just have to pay for the exams.
