Jesus that's not PTSD, that's just a bad memory that came through sleep when repression is low. Please don't self diagnose with PTSD for your own sake. Also, yes bad dreams from bad memories happen. No big deal. Move on and be happy.

Mental illness from child abuse usually = Complex PTSD. It wouldn't be just one nightmare though.

Duh... Read Freud's essay's about histeria and then read late freud on the study of obsessive neurosis. 1984 by Orwell is really good.

>>18566660
This person is right, actually. Freud's Etiology of Hysteria is good. It's a shame he took it all back for political reasons.

If this happened in 2003 when 4chan became available to the public you're at most 20 years old, however if it happened any time after 2006 you're under 18 and need to be banished.

Your fine, stop freaking out.

and what exactly is your issue?

>>18566572

Yes. Giveing her any attention will validate her. Do you want that?

Yes. She banged a lot of guys and realized that most if not all were jerks and wants to come back. The only thing you should ever text back is "lose my number"

If you don't care about the activity you will struggle to not procrastinate. If you enjoy the activity or have to do it because of your salary, then the motivation is there. Try to enjoy what you are not enjoying when you are procrastinating. Also block youtube and twitter. That helps a lot.

acid is a hell of a drug. you live in florida? get some money together and go north. new hamshire has jobs. think long term, but stay in the now.

Being attractive definitely helps, but it's not the only way.

Is there anything else those people are doing that is helping them get ahead? Are they better at marketing themselves? Do they attract more fans with fanart? Do they have more of a presence on social media, and invite in more people by being active on social media?

Freelancing is as much business as it is art. You have to be able to market, advertise, promote your work reliably, make yourself present and accessible, build a platform, and basically do all of the business legwork to make yourself stand out. As good as your art may be, it won't get popular or noticed if nobody sees it.

It's not like I don't talk to other girls.

>>18566192
You can't. You like her, accepting her would make you suffer less I think. Now I know many people would say.. "go fuck 3 other chicks, see how much you care then" and personally when I've done it, it's not like the feelings go away that much.

God, I know that feel op.
Got the same problem with a girl who only wants to be physical but nothing more. Other guys would be jealous cause she's a stunner but I just end up feeling used and hurt, so much that i can't enjoy the time I spend with her zgh

He's emotional distance. Its probably has to do with how he grew up
>boys can't show there emotions meme
That's probably the problem. He wants to be apart of your life, he just doesn't know how to convey those emotions.

>>18566127

eh. hard to say. a lot of people do one thing but want another. my father once said that his biggest fear was I'd grow up, move out, and never talk to them again.

this assumption (when i was in 7th grade mind you) is probably what pushed me into that. he never seemed to like me much before but he defniitely liked me less after. he just kept me at a distance under the assumption that i dont love him and made it very difficult to love him.

he always had this weird belief that it was the childs job to engage with the father, which is weird. on the rare occassion id ask him to do something with me he'd yell at me and say 'its not always about what you want to do, you gotta do what other people want to do too' then he'd try to make me do something i wasn't really into and lecture me the entire time.

I'm not sure why i was a pretty good kid. I struggled with match and science, but i was one grade ahead in those courses so its natural. I didn't raelly talk back or break the rules or rebel or anything, I was one of those goodie two shoes who believed in following the rules. ironically my parents were okay with letting us drink but I only ever partook once a year for special celebrations whereas my brother was a teenage drunk every weekend.

bit of a digression there, but in the end he didn't have much of a reason to hate me, but he always seemed to. so as an adult hes maintained that 'its my sons job to build our relationship' and like your dad, has only called me when he needs tech help like torrents.

I was brain damaged for a month last year and he never called. when he finally saw me he only said 'whats wrong with your eye?' and 'whats wrong with your hair?' (my nephew had styled it for fun).

now i dont talk to him. he had a stroke and i paid my respects but since then i told the family im just out.

>>18566127
my dad does the same thing
sometimes he'll ask me to go fishing with him though

>>18566061
have him return it , give him his money back after , basic shit my friend

>>18566065
This.

Get a bad review involving a defect and you may get banned.

You may be able to appeal if he refuses Because then it looks more like hes tryna get a discount.

>>18566065

This. Have them ship it back to you. If it comes back damaged and you have timestamped photos of before you shipped it out then that might help you.

Tor is a meme and it is controlled by the CIA

Almost everything on pol is an autistic work of fiction you'd be better off doing almost anything else.

Yes and no. A baby is expensive. Its not a bundle of joy but rather a bundle of responsibilities/expenses. Take two jobs instead and I think you should wait until the kid is like 3-4 where the expenses is slightly down (since it has been potty trained already by that time) before going back to school (which is also time/money consuming). And be prepared to be a working student/dad by that time. Good luck OP.

>>18566042
My father went through something a lot like this, there are a lot of options out there schooling wise and once your kid is 5 - 7 I would suggest trying to go back to school.
Shits going to be very hard for you, and your wife if you have one. It's not going to be easy, but it will be worth it

apprenticeship. learn a trade.
