So I've been smoking cigarettes for years now and it's definitely taking a toll on me. Not trying to quit cold turkey but I don't want to smell or taste like cigarettes anymore. I want a Vape. I've purchased plenty of different vapor sharks and they all have the same issue that they leak. Oil leaks through the mouthpiece which numbs my tongue and taste like shit. Anybody have a vapor shark that hasn't or doesn't leak oil into their mouths?

I like that part where you decided that you have enough lung cancer, but not enough mild poison (nicotine).

Why are you so pathetic and cant simply stop?

i need advice on this stuff

There's a long-ish backstory to all of this which resulted in the end of her leaving her 5 year relationship and getting together with me, after a couple of years of texting back and forth, dating for a while at the beginning on a break between them.

It's now gotten to the point that she tells me that the whole relationship is literally shit, that there's a certain angry atmosphere towards me and that she's generally unhappy with the whole LDR. For me it's pretty clear that, although not spoken, she's still longing for what she had and compares it to what she has now.
Of course she's going to get sad about it.

Besides her having a list of a hundred things she dislikes about me, i don't feel like breaking up.
Not that i have more than enough reasons to, hearing from her that she's somehow making me guilty of her failed relationship is really nothing you want to hear as a boyfriend, but rather that all those things can be worked on and i know that.

Countless other shit she's said to me, not acknowledging me as her boyfriend, being mad when she does tell other people that she has one and so on and so forth.

Last night we had a talk about the matter, where she told me the whole "everything's shit" stuff. It's clear she wants to break up, asking her if she wants that i break up is being responded with "calm down you said those words now i didn't".

TL;DR girlfriend is not happy with anything i do or say, don't want to break up, getting emotionally confused to hell and back, my brain hurts

You will never be happy with her anon.
She is the type that straight up does not know what she wants so she will keep wanting something else.
She was not happy with her last BF, she is not happy with you and i guarantee she will not be happy with any future bfs.
You need to stop acting like a beta and assert yourself or just have some self respect and leave.

I just ended a relationship that started as a LDR and went to IRL when I moved to a different continent to be with her
She was willing to do whatever when it was LDR but once it became an actual relationship I guess I didn't live up to whatever she built up in her head. I offered her pure love and you could tell none of that really mattered in the end
She goes on about how much she loves me and we'll get back together blah blah but now she uses words lik "I care about you" "you're a good person" instead of what she used to say.
Don't invest anymore emotion into it, you'll end up very hurt. Cut her loose, a lot of these women are like what >>18538845 says
I let down my guard and common sense and now feel like a tool.
My revenge will be that I will have a very happy life with a woman deserving of my love

How? How do i do that seriously

I was moderately injured at work due to the direct negligence/stupidity of one of my coworkers. Basically, coworker was running and not looking, blitzed me from the side, and I lost consciousness and sprained my neck.

My company is taking care of things very well, paying for medical costs and reimbursing my travel to appointments.

But I am having some issues at work. A lot of people think I faked this to get paid from workers comp. However, I didn't get paid a dime for taking just a couple days off (other than med costs and travel reimbursement). In order to be paid, I had to be out for more than three days, and I did not need to be out that long.

This has made working with my coworkers painfully awkward. The coworker who accidentally injured me won't speak a word to me and hasn't apologized. I think she thinks I want to sue or her job is on the line. But after multiple interviews with my supervisors, I insisted that it was just an accident and I don't want to make waves.

Basically, I feel like I walk into a room and everyone was just talking shit about me, walking on eggshells around me, and it's almost painful to just show up. My job involves lots of communication and working as a team, and it's like a hush falls onto the room whenever I am there.

What do?

Depressed 19yr old about to turn 20. Still dont know what the fuck im going to do with my life at all. work nightshift at a fast food joint and have no ambitions because nothing ever interested me. A year ago enter psychosis and have 12 existential crisis's making already existing depression worse. Become anxious around people because of phycosis; lose tons of people skills. All friends are going to college and university knowing what they want in life. Where the hell do i start? Im trying to recover but nightshift is killing me and the looming thought of being an absolute loser makes me want to kill myself. What jobs do you guys have? Any you would recommend?

I'm trying to lessen my activities on the internet and doing something actually worthwhile instead. I thought about stuff like learning to draw or writing a novel. However, I have serious problems with getting commited and then staying commited over a longer period. At the slightest hurdle I immediately start to doubt what I am doing and soon after that I give up completely.

Is there any advice you could give someone as weak-willed as me? I'm not looking for reddit tier "Never give up! You can do ANYTHING if you try hard enough xD" paroles but actual advice to help me get better at this. Also, feel free to recommend me any piece of media if you believe it might help me, like nonfiction for example.

Treat it like a muscle. Do small things first, to build up will power.
>>
>>18538743

so ultimately we cannot really tell you how to be motivated. its not a multi step process. even if it was, if you arent motivated to just work out, how would you find the motivation to do something to get you motivated to work out? its a flawed concept.

the best thing you can do is create some small goals and try to meet them, and build up to bigger goals. the high gets bigger with every accomplishment.

you can also try other systems that don't rely on SELF discipline. Slave system (like when you were younger, you did what you had to do in order to avoid punishment). Reward system, you give your self candy or ice cream or your favorite video game at the end of the day only when you accomplished your goals. Buddy system, where someone who also wants to do this or something else works with you and you work with him on each of your goals (this ones a bit flawed as you might just end up bringing the worst out of each other). then there's mentor system which is where you have someone who DOES run the marathon force you to get up every morning and run with him until you get there.

none of these require self discipline, there is motivation but it comes from external forces, and while it can help get you to the finish line and learn your real potential you will likely just fall back into your normal routine once that system is no longer in place.

the fun thing about self discipline is that everyone CAN have it, and its pretty literally just a choice. you can choose to do something. just because you CHOSE not to do it doesn't mean you can't do it. you literally can. but most people can't wrap their minds around the concept. they've convinced themselves they 'can't. simply because they 'won't'.
>>
>>18539166

heres the thing though: you don't need to WANT to do something in order to do it. even if you hate doing it, you can just do it anyway.

thats how you find out who you really are. some times you meet people who say they want to be a writer. five years later they still say they it. in that time they will have written nothing but maybe a chapter.

ask them how writing is going they will say 'oh i got writers block'. despite never having just written, they will claim writers block. despite them not knowing how to write, never actually writing anything, and hating it when they do write, they will insist that they are a writer.

you are the less obsessed version of that. You see something that LOOKS interesting, then you try it, and it isn't something you enjoy, so you leave. the writers i mentioned earlier are like you but they are obsessed with the idea because of the lifestyle it brings to their imagination. its almost like saying you are a youtuber. you just want to be looked up to for no real reason.

you are one step ahead of the vapid people. there isnt actually anything wrong with you per se, but ultimately if you don't enjoy something, and its not going to bring you something you really want, why do it? its okay to give up on things and just move from one thing to the next, cuz you're not 'giving up'. giving up implies some sort of commitment.

the only REAL issue here is that you might be giving up on things you WILL like or WILL give you something you want/need simply because you are used to instant gratification. working out isn't fun, no one really enjoys it per se, but people stick with it because of the results they get. even though running a marathon sounds stupid to me, to actually just set a goal and see it through can be beneficial in and of its self, and when someone like you is directionless, something as generic as a marathon might be what you need to realize your potential.

Hi sorry if I'm on my the wrong page.

I live in the UK, I recently got a caution I'm on the sor for 2 years now for low grade c images on my computer from years ago. I understand my caution ( It just felt rushed like they were just checking a box, through out the interview about the caution I was told court would be bad and this caution is the best thing).

I'm getting some help from riverside(mental health), I have gender therapy which is on hold while I deal with my autism I've had my first screening, I do show many signs of autism, now just waiting for my first test in November. I have had some other therapy, I'm on some medication for anxiety and depression n sleep issues, plus waiting for a dyslexic test.

I have just had my first visit with the police at my home they went through all paper work documenting my computer, phone, people I know plus my sexual orientation and if any porn what type. They seem to some what understand my issues and they did talk about some support they could offer throught different groups. One of the worrying issues is they talk about turning up at my home without notice (we worked out a compromise with them texting me first if outside)

It's just all a lot to deal with mental health issues.

I have emailed multiple people n groups just looking for some advice/support really.

I date people who are mildly to moderatly bad for me. I am "self diagnosing" myself with anxiety of some sort. I will forgive almost anything after a few days of loneliness and panic.

What's wrong with me and what's the solution? Therapy or just better will power?

Is it still a rebound and a coping mechanism if you end up dating and feeling for the next guy just as much?

some people just have strong emotions, and no matter who you date you're just going to feel really strong about it. ever read 'the little prince?' one of the big ideas behind the book is that the little prince has this beautiful rose that he grew him self, and the rose is kind of a bitch cuz it can talk, but he doesn't mind because its so beautiful.

then he comes to earth and he finds a bush full of roses and asks what the hell thats all about, and his earth friend explains that roses are all over the earth. the little prince becomes depressed because he realizes his rose isn't special, there are millions just like it all over the earth.

but by the end of the story he realizes it IS special because of all the time and effort and energy he put into it. other roses might be kinder or nicer or even more beautiful, but none could ever have the importance of his because of how much time he put in to it.

basically the whole things just a metaphor for why relationships are special to us individually.

either way, therapy can help you but its not entirely necessary. willpower ot turn down people who are just bad for you is the best solution but therapy can help you achieve that too. you're less likely to cave in with a therapist asking about it every week

Just received entry denial to a university.

Never worked in my life (for money) and I'm 22.

The few internships I did at places with functioning low class citizens all reflected my lack in social skills and confidence, and their reaction to them.

I am good at nothing except software stuff. I am a hobby programmer. I live with my parents and they are poor. The local unemployment office will soon know and force me to apply for apprenticeships while they put me in low paid jobs together with people whom I want no part of.

My dream was to learn more about computers in university while I work on myself (been lifting, cooking healthy, getting used to healthy sleep schedule, trying to talk to people that wont punch you in the face for looking into their eyes without permission). I wont be able to do that in an environment where social skills are the only thing that matters for success, with people that didn't score well enough high school marks because they were busy bullying those who at least tried.

tell me anything

At that point it doesn't matter what you want. You are on the same level as these people. Find yourself a job as a cashier or cleaning guy and start making money to sustain yourself.

So I have a mom with bipolar disorder. She is also a percentage of people with bipolar that experience hallucinations, voices, and delusions of grandeur.

It used to be easier when she was younger, but as my mom gets older, she has been having at least one episode every year.

And we know what causes her to start becoming manic, which brings along the voices and delusions, and my mom will just snowball into a manic mess (refusing to take medications, saying really hurtful things to us that are a part of her delusions, hearing voices, trying to hurt herself or hurt others, etc.) until we have to call paramedics to get my mom in the mental hospital before she does something illegal.

Sleep is probably the biggest thing and what has played a role this time. My mom made some new friends. They went to Vegas on a weekend trip. My mom didn't sleep for like three days.

And now we are here, at the tip of the iceberg, if my family and I don't attempt to stop it, the next 3-4 months are going to be hell. And by hell I mean, here's my mom's symptoms

>she starts telling us she is God, and painfully responsible for all the cancer and child molesters of the world, everything is her fault and she hates having to send people to hell
>if I come to visit her, she'll pull me aside and whisper in my ear, that she thinks my brother of raping her pets
>at it's worst, she'll say she is planning to kill one of us (me and my siblings) or herself on God's behalf because she says voices are telling her we are Satan's children.


I have called her therapist and psych before and spoken to them about my mom, several times throughout my life. It seems to get worse. Because then the psych ups her meds, which pisses off my mom because then she thinks the government is shutting down her mind or other delusional thoughts, then she refuses to take them, and the break down is worsened and faster.

I guess this is a vent and a question. I don't know how to reason with my mom. I get frustrated trying to explain to her that she is not God, she does not cause people to die or be hurt. I am just wondering if anyone has experienced similar, and found something helpful.

To add, I don't live with my mom but I am close to the area and visit often. I am sure some people will ask why I remain involved. Basically, I have had to stop my mom from killing herself too many times from childhood until now. As frustrating as this is, I don't want her to die this way. Because of that, it has been far to hard to remove myself from her life.

How do I stop feeling shit because of the retarded shit my girlfriend does when she's away from me?
She's really nice and gentle most of the time we are together, but the simplest things like being hungry, on her period or under pressure to hand in a paper can change her into an unbearable cunt. Right now she's finishing her field practice, the final exam's today and she's coming over tomorrow, but this past week she's been the worst bitch I've ever cared for. I realize I shouldn't care about any such stupid thing, but it's been really sorrowful, too much so to make sense. How do I stop having these awful feelings?

As she's effectively using you as a punching bag for her frustrations you don't and you should not. Explain to her, that despite you love her, you're not her doormat and have had it with her behaviour.

>>18538513
Alright, I'll do it tomorrow when we are at my place. Should I be gentle about it or pose an ultimatum?
>>
>>18538524
Ultimatums are the life equivalent of painting yourself into a corner. Unless you plan to follow through don't ... Personally I'd come to a point if my SO did this, where she would either better herself or I'd end the relationship. Of course I would have told her to stop at least a couple of times first.

black men have it so easy in social situations. no matter how awkward or annoying or autistic you are, if you surround yourself with looser white kids and rich white girls, you gonna be seen as a fucking god, the gonna try to dress like you, speak like you act like you etc. you mentioned that you are fit, black plus fit is such a killer combination to get white girls like crazy. just surround yourself with white loosers and you gonna be fine tho
>>
>>18538486
anon, you are fit and black. Do you realize that you won the sexual lottery? The only way you could have more sex appeal was if your dick was also a soda fountain.

literally go out to a party or something, chat a girl up and get her number.
