I have a flight in 6 hours and I'm growing scared by the minute, how do you deal with it /adv/?
>>16623313
Chew gum while they lift off.
>better chance of being struck by lightning then plane crashing
>you could just drink a lot before the flight
>take a lot of sleeping pills and knock the fuck out
>use music to de-stress yourself on flight
>bring a stressball to squeeze on
>keep yourself occupied with books, movies, music
>>16623318
I will try to do so
>>16623337
I know that from a statistical viewpoint worrying is dumb as fuck, but with all the stuff that you hear lately and coupled with the fact that tomorrow is new year's eve, I can't help it. And it's not even the first time that I take a plane dammit.
how the FUCK do I stop having nostalgia over periods that weren't that good?
case in point, in summer 2014 I was doing an internship that was TOTAL SHIT and I recal hating it.
Yet when I think back about this period there is part of me thinking that it was nice because I was in a nice city and it was summer, so my feeling is to feel like it wasnt' that bad. Yet I know I felt like shit when I was experiencing it
why such a disconnect? how can I fix this?
Our minds lie to us. I suffer from severe depression, there have been many times where I am talking to someone close about missing a certain point in my life and they recall to me that I was actually still depressed at that time.
If you have an already existing mental disorder take that into consideration. Our minds are extremely complicated and I would say most of the problems humanity faces are caused by lack of self-awareness and of the sub-conscious.
As I am approaching 25 now and my frontal cortex is almost fully developed it is becoming much easier for my autistic beta-ass to rationalize with myself.
Alright guys, I need some advice.
Last week I invested 100€ in a online casino. I made it up to 1.800€ with blackjack and roulette but I couldnt stop so I lost it all again.
After that, I invested 100€ again, made it up to 1.200€. I wanted my 1.800€ back and lost it all again.
Now im broke.
What to do with my life?
Should I kill myself?
>invested 100€
>invested 100€ again
that's not what invested means. you spent

So yesterday I rubbed some ginger oil in jojoba oil on my head to ease a headache, but got some in my eye. I just sat for an hour watching TV and closed the eye it got in, because thats happened before when I accidentally got oil in my eye, before realizing that when I opened my eye and it looked like I had a smudge on my glasses, it was actually my eye that was fucked up.
I then rinsed with water, but the eye was burning a lot after that and vision was blurry. It was painful to blink. so I kept eyes closed, and nose got runny on that side of my face.
I slept a lot and now there is no more pain, just irritation in my right eye, but my vision is still weird:
Wearing my glasses, if I leave only the right eye open, my vision is blurry. If I do the same thing and take glasses off, it looks like my right eye vision has actually improved and I see as if I was normally wearing glasses, but gets slightly blurry if I focus on an object.
So what I want to ask is will my vision go back to normal soon, is my eye just a little inflamed, or did I permanently damage it? I will have ot wait until next year to go see optometrist.doctor.
Keep a cold compress (of just cold water on a cotton ball) on whenever you can. Likely it will heal, the damage caused by such oils isn't too bad, and the eye has a great healing capacity. Keep it not only closed, but blocking all light from it (so it won't burn any further), get some bandaging. See a doctor if after 3 days it's still bad, but it likely won't be. Just stop trying to see through this eye, avoid stressing it.
>>16623319
Would have helped yesterday, I'm passed that phase now, since there's no more pain or redness. Just a minor irritation and slightly disturbed vision. Just seeking reassurance it will completely heal.
>>16623354
It will, but even if your eye doesn't hurt anymore, you should still let it rest for a day or two. Get yourself an eyepatch and wish everyone a happy new YARRRR.

You should have kissed her

>What did I do wrong /adv/?
You didn't fuck her.
How should I tell my boss I like her and would like to pursue more than just a working relationship?
I think at this point it just might be too obvious as even my work friends are teasing me about it.
"I quit"
>>16623268
Not really possible right now. I'm hoping to be able to transfer up to a new department soon though.
>>16623264
If people are talking about it, she probably knows by now. So, unless she comes up to you about it, you say nothing.
I am trying to quit smoking but i am not sure about vaping... i see a lot of liquid companies giving away free juice but does anyone ever really win on these?

No.

Hi /adv/
I don't know if any of you have/had any eating disorder.
I had bulimia (recovered), BE (almost recovered), and anorexia (working on it, but in path to recovery), and I realized that when I don't eat enough for days/weeks, my body "shuts down" I lose all energy, I can't wake up from bed and spend all day sleeping (and also gain a lot of weight when I don't eat).
I'm not underweight, so I don't know if those two things are related, my theory is that my body start to keep all the energy? or something? Can this be possible?
>>16623213
Talk to a doctor you fucking idiot.
>>16623213
>and also gain a lot of weight when I don't eat
Antoine lavoisier would like a word with you...
>>16623240
I'll explain myself better, if I stop eating properly, I stop losing weight and for every bit I eat I gain some kg, instead of keeping my weight or losing it (as it happens with some of the people I know). This is for weeks obviously, not on the long term.
>>16623220
I'm not leaving in my country and I can't afford 160+€ to pay a doctor, who are usually rude as hell
Hello there /adv/
i have a question that has ben bothering me for a while.
How do i stop being Mr nice guy?
I always put other peoples needs before mine. i talked with a psychologist about this, however that dident change a single thing or answered my question.
I was dating a girl for arround 2 weeks, when i gave her a gift. She kindly said Thank you, but it quickly turned into her being honnest with me.
She said Im way to good to other people who treat me like crap. And thats a thing i've ben wondering about for about 1½ month now.
Anyone out there having the same problem or having any advice they want to pass to me?
>>16623205

Hello /adv/,
I have no current goals in life. You could count the number of people I can really call "friends" with only one hand's fingers. The thing I'm currently studying in university, despite being quite interesting, won't lead me to anything concrete after graduating and it is more and more difficult to cohabitate with my parents, who think I'll become a failure (even though they don't want that for me, I'm in the path of becoming one...).
Everything I do, I see and I feel are currently meaningless to me.
Because of this, I hardly find any motivation to do anything; all I do is staying at my house (thus, I'm often skipping school) playing video games, reading and browsing the Internet, I have trouble going out, even to see my friend. The only time I kinda force myself to go out is to go to my music lessons but I barely practise them at my home.
I'm genuinely aware of that and it really scares me, considering I'm only 19.
I want to change that.
I've been thinking a lot lately about backpacking around the world for at least one year. I really, really want to travel. Though, even if the thought of it is really appealing to me, I'm kinda scared of it and wonder if it would still be a good idea.
So, here are (finally) my questions : Is it wise to go backpacking considering my actual state of mind ? Could some people who started a new life (not necesserally by traveling) before me share their experience and their advice to me ?
>>16623191
Do it, I'm sure you won't get murdered by some stranger.
>>16623206
I'm sure I won't too. The thing I'm scared of is the unknown. That's why I would like to hear some stories to reassure myself.
>>16623191
Hello, Random Guy. You sound like me, but with a goal in life. Good! :D
Here are your options:
>studying in university, despite being quite interesting
Make the most of it. Read/study and expand on what interests you, and find ways you can relate it with other areas of your interest. eg. If you're studying physics, relate it to your music lessons. Find a common ground and explore that area. See what others have done similarly. Internet resources are vast, you may find something. Finding relations may help you reach meanings.
>won't lead me to anything concrete after graduating
I'm doing odd but related jobs to my field. See how diverse you can spread yourself while still relating to what you've studied. Work experience is anyway VERY different than what you study.
>difficult to cohabitate with my parents
Find a part time job related/unrelated to your area of interest. Or study or practice outside. Get away from their negative thoughts for as many hours as is possible for you. One of your goals can be moving out, for which you will have to earn accordingly and so will have to orient yourself that way.
>backpacking around the world for at least one year
If you're scared to try out, then start with a more touristy place close to home. And it can be just a few days trip. Then as you cover more ground, you will come by very different experiences. As a guy, you can actually meander through alleys and slightly shady areas too (if you're into that). With this base, you can take a leap of faith and cover new territories far and wide. And the globe will be a small place then.
Good luck! ^_^
This week it'll be 2 years since my ex left me and I'm not over it and I still miss her.
What a fucking faggot I am right?
Any advice for moving on ?
>>16623185
>What a fucking faggot I am right?
yes.
>Any advice for moving on ?
Stop being a faggot.

>Any advice for moving on ?
Stop being beta, realize that life sucks sometimes and that there are still other women out there, I mean you actually had a GF so you're better off than a lot of people on 4chan in the first place.
Stop thinking that you need a SO to be complete, learn to love yourself stop being a faggot.
Where could I find a list of deviantart users who post pictures of people with extra limbs?
Sorry if this is the wrong spot. This is my first 4chan post.

Probably on deviatart.com

google and fuck off
>>16623163
Go ask /d/. They probably have a multi thread.
I've been with this girl for a few months, and it turns out she's really into being dominated in bed. No heavy stuff though. Problem is I'm a huge pussy, and I've had no sexual experiences before her, so I really have no idea what to do. All I've done so far is been a little rough with her, like holding her down while fucking her and grabbing her hair to have her head in control. I've also tied her arms up once, but I really had no idea what to do after that, so it wasn't very exciting. She's also expressed a desire to be punished, but I have no idea how I'd go about doing that in bed.
Prepare yourself to be cheated on
And what you want advice on is?
>>16623125
This basically. Got close to a girl in college who confided she was a sub. She was dating somebody when we hooked up. Found out I was sharing her with like 5 other guys. Scrubbed my dick raw. And again, hooked up with another sub, found out she was dating somebody too. My cousin drunkenly admitted she was a sub when we went out drinking one time, then she went home with some random guy while I was in the bathroom, it was kind of awkward going back to her place where her boyfriend started asking questions of me and I kind of had to tell him he was dating a slut.
should I date a girl I have no romantic interest in just ti make her feel better? would me not calling her for a second date make things worse?
She's a beautiful person with few friends and she's borderline depressed but I have 0 interest in her. It's honestly just ti make her feel better and laugh together for an evening.
I also already have a gf but she's out for work
Then no don't do it if she's depressed and you have a girlfriend an she found out you'd just look like some loser cheating
Horrible idea. What will you do when your GF comes back? Sooner or later you will have to "break up" with this girl and that will hit her harder than you not dating her at all.
If you care about this girl spend time with her as a friend. At most be her wingman.
>>16623071
no.
