The part of your disk that boots the operating system is corrupted. You'll need to reinstall the OS to fix it and preferably on a new hard drive.
Lately I've been a lazy sack of shit. I just sit around on the computer all day and don't accomplish anything I have to do. It's gotten to the point where I'm so lazy that I'd rather jerk off than have sex.
How do I stop being lazy?
Take steps towards building a busy routine. Maybe clean the house or your room every Wednesday, no skipping. Remind others to do things like removing their shoes when entering the house, and then talk to people around you, see if they need any help with whatever.
Once you've done that and successfully become active, you can sit down one night and think about things you want to do. Eat an apple pie, certain kind of ice cream, bike around the neighborhood, visit the library, go hiking.
>Stop jacking off
>Look at videos of miserable shits or visit a furry fetishist website, that will scare you straight
>Eat better
>Take vitamins and get at least 20 minutes of sunlight a day. Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and B vitamins are necessary for feeling active and productive.
>Get a good night's sleep.
>Stop looking at porn
>Always ask yourself "What can I do right now that would be more productive than what I'm currently doing?"
>Think about your desires, and then work on achieving them. Want a girlfriend? Start working out, go on okcupid or tinder, and practice flirting with random girls.

Im this but at university, i've lost pretty much all motivation to do fucking anything except sit at my desk and play video games.

>Whats the point
I think I am losing my boyfriend to a fat ugly girl and I don't know how to keep it from happening. I do not want to lose him, our relationship was wonderful before she waltzed in but now shes fucking everything up for me... I try to keep him from seeing her but shes fucking diabolical because she runs into him all the fucking time, she also just so happens to be into literally everything hes into... fuck that... I need to get rid of her but I don't know how... any ideas?
>>16856437
This is cracking me up. Are you seriously losing your boyfriend to a fat ugly girl, who is possibly goth because pic related?
You must have the most terrible personality to be losing to her, anon. Lol good luck!
>>16856437
You can't stop someone from feeling whatever they feel. The more you try to control someone the less they're likely to want to be with you since no one likes having their life controlled. Consider being a less jealous, controlling person, maybe your BF will like you more and see less in the other lady.
Just a thought...
Maybe try a different tact w/ your bf.
Communicate with him. Ask for his opinion on things. Then listen?
Like I said, just a thought.
I haven't slept for 45 hours because i took ritalin everytime i became tired, does anyone know how to end the effect early (I don't have ADD or ADHD, just needed the ability to be awake to finish an assignment in the nighttime and work in the daytime) any tips would be appreciated as i want to sleep so badly. For your guys information, I've tried to get a blackout by the help of alcohol, but it didn't work.
Pic somewhat related, feels like my mind, and brain is the same way as it is illustrated in the picture.
>>16856430
Have you tried just laying down, and sleeping?
My brother used to take t3's or anything else with codene to helo him sleep. It took him a couple months to lose the addiction though
>>16856439
I tried to do that for an hour, this was before i asked for advice on this board, but thanks for trying to help me to get some rest/sleep
So my parents are getting a divorce, and my Mom is telling me shit about my Dad that she can't prove, and I don't know who to trust anymore. My brother and I don't know what to do, and my parents are letting us pick who we want to live with. Any thoughts?
Well, in the end, the only thing that's going to matter are your and your brother's personal opinion of them.
But as a general rule, be wary of the one that is actively trying to slander the other person : In this case, your mom.
Does your dad also tries to make you distrust your mom, or does he keep quiet ?
Both my parents slander each other post-separation. They say awful things about each other but I chose to ignore everything they said, and I live with my mom because of my own personal experience she is the more respectful of the two.
>>16856482
Well then, it seems like you might already have made your choice.
And your brother, did he took the same decision for the same reason ?
I want to make 60k annually but I'm shit at math beyond calculus. What are my career options?
>>16856417
Depending on your area one of the skilled trades could easily make that much.
>>16856417
Literally ANY career option that is not stats/econ/accounting.
Easier to say that, than list ALL your options.
>>16856417
What do you enjoy doing? There are a lot of jobs that (eventually) make that much money. One example is: welder. If you're willing to put the time and effort into what you do you can make a decent amount of money doing all sorts of shit. What you are willing to work for and your available resources will decide your options.
If I were to make weed pancakes could I just through the weed in the pancake batter or do I have to to the thing with the butter?
You need the butter to get the THC out of it, you can also put the weed grinded into heavy alcohol for some days and then use this.
You need to bake the ground-up weed for a while first to activate the THC or w/e.
Then you need to cook it in butter or oil. THEN You put it into the pancake mix.
You should go to google for this, not /adv/. God damnit I hate lazy fucks like you who come here asking stupid questions that a quick google search could answer. How do you even function in society?
No, you will waste weed, how about googling how to make edibles instead of asking to be spoonfed
Good place to start is how to make budder
I can't lie I dislike this board alot and I am surprised that I find myself desperate enough to come here for advice, but I fear for my own life honestly.
Each day that goes by I am coming closer and closer to killing myself and its the only way I think that I can escape the pain that I feel in my head and body its probably just mental but the pain is there.
I'm not going to lie I don't want to kill myself but the thought just gets louder and louder in my head and it just seems to make sense at the point.
I've decided that if I want to end my life that a drug overdose would be probably the easiest. I've never done anything other than drink so I've bought about 300 dollars worth of heroin and figure that I'll just get drunk and try to shoot as much as I possibly can after drinking for a while.
It scares me that I've put that much thought into this.
I have been sober for a little over a month now since alcohol no longer even makes me happy and I feel like quitting.
I don't want to but I am at a loss now. I can't picture myself living life feeling this way for years to come.
Any advice at all?
Things just have been falling apart for the last 5-6 years of my life and that doesn't help as well. Consciousness is a pain in the ass I just want to sleep all day I hate being awake.
>>16856404
>berates the people he seeks help from
>wants to kill self
>won't kill self
>decides how to kill self
Advice? Kill yourself faggot.
>>16856409
>berates people he seeks help from
Should I have just lied?
I guess I didn't have to add that, I just thought it'd be valuable to show how desperate I am at this point.
whats your life like? Btw 4chans not the best place to ask these kinds of questions. If you want more serious answers, maybe seek them in more popular forums dealing with depression/suicide.
Does anyone have an experience like this..?
I started dating this girl a couple years ago, my first girlfriend ( I'm 24 she's 21 ). We dated up until a couple months ago then broke up. Until that time we lived together. I'm pretty sure I fell in love. Then I broke it off.. I had to, for personal reasons. But we still talk everyday. I don't want to get back with her, for various reasons. One being, that there is a very high chance that, for all intents and purposes, I am gay. But I love her still, and I just want to make sure she's okay. She was and is very insecure.. Extremely so. And so I don't tell her I love her anymore. And I don't flirt or anything. But I still tell her she's beautiful, I don't want to lead her on but I want to continue building her. I talk to her almost every day, she tells me about her day and stuff. I just want her to be okay. I hear in her voice the.. complete surrender that we had together.. I tear up almost every time we talk, but she can't hear it.
Just wondering how many people continued talking to their exes for a long time, staying friends ( we live across the country now so it's only
Over IM facebook phone ) and stuff and how that worked out for you.. Appreciate any response I get
>>16856387
I guess you can't tell her you're gay?
Personally I have a hard time talking to exes, but it's not like I have close female friends anyway.
>>16856448
We are very open, I was telling her I was probably gay before we broke up. I don't have a hard time talking to her at all. I don't talk to anyone else, I don't have any friends I talk to regularly besides her. I've heard exes can't be friends but I think maybe her and I can. I just don't have any relationship experience ( well until this ) so that's why I asked.>>>>16856448
But then all these websites say staying in contact is the worst idea.. Fuck.. I suppose it will resolve itself eventually
OK, this is gonna sound weird, but how often should you text your girlfriend?
I've been with quite a few girls before. Some of them, I couldn't reply to them fast enough (they sent a lot of texts.) Others, I feel like I'm the one texting too much. I've had ONE girl, just one, who texted me and I texted back at a seemingly healthy rate. Coincidentally she was the hardest breakup that I'm still not 100% over.
The girlfriend I have now seemingly never texts me. Maybe its because I text too much, but I just got off of work and I hadn't gotten a text from her the entire day besides when I told her good morning, and she replied back. I texted her asking her what she had planned for today and I went to work for 8 hours, come back, she hasn't even seen my text.
Is this normal? To me, its not. Idk what I should do. Its hard to talk about it, obviously lol.
So there's this one girl that's interested in me. Thing is, she isn't really my type; I just don't find her that attractive. I don't know her very well (at all, actually), but at a glance she doesn't seem like a terrible person.
I have very little interest in her, but I'm considering dating her anyway. The reason being that it's been nearly 8 years since my last date, I'm clearly a little rusty. The only reason for me to date her is so I can get some practice in, and use that experience on a girl I'm actually interested in.
So, good idea? Bad idea (if it's bad, then how is it bad to me, not the girl)? Any suggestions?
Don't string people along, it will come back to bite you in the ass. When you learn how to manipulate people like that, it's very hard to stop doing it.
go ahead and date her, BUT let her know that you're not looking for anything serious/you're dating other people.
Is this a good apology to send to someone and should I send it? i don't think I ever will bump into her again, nor do I expect her to reply at all
>Hey, I just wanted to apologize for how I behaved last year as your roommate. I treated you quite poorly and created a toxic environment which you did not deserve. I was struggling with substance abuse at the time, and i just wanted to apologize to you for everything i did. Anyway, I wish you the best
>>16856352
I think it's good, and it's definitely a good idea to send it to her. Just for peace of mind for both of you.
>>16856352
Great. Just dont expect anything from her. This message probably will comfort her.
>>16856352
bitches love apologies
do it. it's great.
I'm personally a little torn on the excuse part, because to me it would feel like deferring responsibility, especially if she already knows about it. but, on the other hand it also shows that you've been working on yourself, maybe even because of her.
whatever. it's perfect enough. just send it.
Hearing my friend talk about his GF or how happy he is with her makes me want to hurt myself. Its stupid, i know.
I don't like the girl btw
why is this? what can i do to stop these feelings?
You feel this way because you miss your friend. You want your old friend back, not this mindless girl-crazy dumbfuck shell of a human being.
You either need a girlfriend of your own, or a new friend.
>>16856361
>You feel this way because you miss your friend.
i did use to feel romantically about him, so this could make sense.
>not this mindless girl-crazy dumbfuck shell of a human being.
hes not really, its just this one girl
>You either need a girlfriend of your own, or a new friend.
a girlfriend will have to wait on, a new friend i dunno.
Honestly, this kind of stuff happens when i see anyone talk about being with someone they love, or doing couple stuff.
Everytime i see other people being happy with eachother, i want to just throw myself off a building or just die in general.
Its dumb.
>>16856366
>i did use to feel romantically about him
There's your problem, you're a faggot.
You're not even one of those cool faggots like bears and macho leather types. You're an outright twink with girly emotions.
Alright. I've been dealing with social anxiety and awkwardness for all 18 years of my life. It's not to the point where I'm some weird ass kid who can't interact with anyone, but I am pure shit at social interaction. I am very smart and I want to be able to express my thoughts with others. I want to be able to have fun at social gatherings without wanting to blow my brains out every time I talk to someone. I want to be the type of person who is glowing with character and charisma. Right now people always say I look depressed (which I am) and they always bring up how I don't talk much. I can't change my expression to display emotion whatsoever. I always look sad and tired. I've watched hours upon hours of online tutorials on how to be more outgoing and confident but none of that shit works. I tried taking Xanax to make me more comfortable in social situations but that doesn't work either. I have a decent amount of friends but I want to have the ability to socialize with people I'm not familiar with. I can't remember the last time I talked to a woman. I don't know how to initiate conversations out of the blue with pretty girls and truly get to know them. I think I'm gonna try going to the doctors but I'm not sure if my problem will be taken seriously. Do doctors take social anxiety and awkwardness as a serious problem? I'm just tired of having to live everyday feeling so isolated from everyone else and I don't know what to do. Sorry to rant but I'm just out of options. My depression worsens everyday I have to deal with these issues.
>>16856340
Do you ever laugh? Like, ever? Here's a trick to faking a natural smile: thinking of the most hilarious shit you can remember, then when it makes you chuckle freeze that face. Congrats, you now look like a happy, approachable human.
Beyond that, socialization is a skill that just takes practice, time, and effort. You're very young, don't beat yourself for not knowing how to handle yourself, it's pretty normal.
Any ethical doctor will take you seriously. You may be referred to a psychotherapist of some kind.
It helps to pay attention to whatever social situations you're a part of, even if you're just observing them. How do people great each other? What do they talk about? When someone does or says something that makes you feel good or bad, remember what it was and why you felt that way. It's likely other people will respond similarly. Ape the good stuff and avoid the bad stuff. After every social interaction you should take some time while alone to pick it apart and examine what was going on as objectively as you can. Understand that small talk is not about transferring information, but about getting comfortable with one another. It's how people feel each other out and find common ground. Master small talk and you'll be able to move on to real talk, which most everyone enjoys more.
A good question to ask yourself is: why do you feel like you want to die whenever you talk to people? Is that a realistic thought?
If you're worried about what to say in conversation, try to ask questions people enjoy answering. 'What do you do for fun?' is a great one. Pay attention to what they say, ask follow up questions, try to find a point of common interest that will let you find a comfortable conversation topic you both enjoy. Cultivating a genuine interest in people is probably the easiest way to avoid social fear, since you're focusing on them instead of worrying so much about yourself.
How does a non white boi such as myself go about getting a white gurl?
fat/ugly girls are less picky, go for them
