6 years I take Ritalin from child. Now I don't have hyperactivity, but the attention-deficit still there, like a shadow. Stress and depression are there but more stronger. If you go down your guard, they'll hit rly hard. All time you need to be focus, 30 min at last.
To other ADHD Adults, What do you do to state "good" or "fine"?
You took ritalin from a child? The hell?
>i am a female fyi
so my roommates pitched the idea to make me wear cat ears and a leash in public, however i dont have to pay rent because i am broke, should i take it?
>>18533170
This is the third time I've seen a cat ears/leash thread in as many days.
Bait harder.
>>18533170
Only if you wear tight leggings and crawl on all fours.

>>18533155
Srry shit spelling
>>18533155
What disability do you have, mental problems? It sounds to me you could benefit from being actively involved in anything at all, from part time job to freelancing.
Is art school worth considering seriously?
>Are scholarships available if you're actually talented at art?
I might consider it then unless it's an actualwaste of time.
>>18533139
Art school is totally worth it if you are clever about it. I got my art degree from an art school that was actually not a college, but a vocational school, so it focused much on internships and teaching you technical skills that help you get your ass hired and not so much on actual painting (eurofag here).
Of course if you go to art school on some field where you are painting, writing poetry, learning philosophy, feminism or whatever, you find it difficult to get hired anywhere but in the faculty of that very same school.
Art school is not as bad as people make it out to be, I've met some of the coolest, smartest people (not all SJW's you know) in art schools, but just don't fall for the meme your fellow students and some teachers like to push that learning stuff on computer is secondary to learning how to actually draw (hint: it's the other way around).
>>18533139
Well I'm browsing /adv/ rn and I'm in film school and it's been hella helpful so ye
It depends on why you're becoming an artist.
If it's for the joy of making art and you want to get paid while doing so, no, go make art and sell it.
If you want to get into a specific career like animation or graphic design then yes. Art history or maybe even teaching art then yes.
The thing is, that you learn art and techniques through practice and focus on craft, art school really only is there for connections being made to the industry
how do i stop hating myself, i sit at home and do nothing all day and have no friends in the area i live in. im so bored that i kinda wouldn't mind death. i live with my parents and my dad took away my keyboard to the computer. wtf do i do?
>>18533104
Go find something to do? There's always meetup groups for something you can try out.
>>18533104
Why did parents take away your computer? Sounds like your relationship with your parents is all fucked up. Deal with this first.
so ultimately I like a wife of decent quality to have children and be faithful the only one to have sex with...
haven't found her yet

Is it weird for a 19 y/o college freshman to ask out a 22 y/o college junior?
If so, how can I meet women my age during the summer when everyone is out of town until fall?
Nah man, go for it
>>18533076
Not weird.
I think I hate women. I'm 27, and now I find myself single with one disappointment after another. I can't see how it can ever get better. Every new girl I meet has her own past and baggage and I've got my own as well. I don't know what to do anymore and I'm sick of trying to keep up hope because it really seems hopeless. I can't trust anyone.
What do I do boys?
>>18533061
Date younger girls mold them to your liking and upto your taste.
>>18533061
Bang as many women as you can at the same time, giving them hope that you are ready to commit to them while going behind their backs and chatting up other bimbos. I've been doing this for the past year and it's been pretty cool. I'm 26.
Really in need of some money and food /adv/
how do I make money online?
>>18533042
Take advantage of other people's kindness open a patreon and say you need money for your cat surgery or something.
Is there any reason to get into animation as a profession if you can't go to California/CalArts?
>>18533023
During my 20s, I'd do it as a hobby.
Get a regular job, and then work on animation as a hobby
If you're good and know how to twitter/tumblr, you'll get picked up.
>>18533023
There's no reason to get into animation as a profession period. Extremely limited market, and a lot of trained people that will all be competing for the same jobs.
Go for something that's in demand.
You might as well just do YouTube videos at this point.
I have a friend who I recently discovered lives with family that hoards pretty badly and I'm partially concerned for him. Any suggestions of how I could possibly help him or talk to him about it w/o being awkward to make sure he's ok?
>>18532934
send him a trailer to the hoarders show
Say "hey I think your family are hoarders" either as a conversation starter or during a lull in the conversation. Then if he denies it explain why you think so. If he gets really defensive then apologize and explain you just wanted to make sure he's alright. If no hangups occur you should have a smooth talk about it and get something resolved.
Hoarding of course is indicative of mental illness but I'd go so far as to say it's not as bad as being outright poor and filthy ... If they have bad spending habits it's really up to him to get out of there asap. You just can't live with people who are stupid with money.
Is it time to go to the hospital?
I think I'm becoming mentally sick over not having sex. I can't stop thinking about it and my hand is shredded from punching my mirror and smashing a glass table. I'm afraid that they'll lock me up for revealing my violent outbursts due to sexual frustration instead of actually helping me. I don't want to lose my job. What do I do?
>>18532852
masterbate retard.
>>18532856
It doesn't help anymore.
>>18532858
Worth going to therapy about this, for sure.
Now before I start, let me tell you that I do not have depression, I haven't cut myself since I was 13 (I think), I am 27 now.
I am generally a very productive person. I work hard, I love volunteering, I am an honours student, and I am generally content with myself.
At work the other day, I just felt so stressed out and tried to release that stress by pacing back and forth, drawing, writing, leaving for the bathroom just to get away and it seemed like nothing was helping. The stress and anxiety was just building so I ended up using a pen and slicing my wrist. Not sure why I chose that route but when I did, I just felt so much better at work. I calmed down. It was almost like a tranquilliser. It was just something I could control at that moment. The pain distracted me. It gave me something to focus on rather then being neurotic.
I am not sure what advise I am asking for. I am just hoping I don't get into that habit at work. It was the second worst day I had there. I didn't even hide my cuts from my coworkers when it came to cleaning at the end of the day because I honestly gave no f*cks.
Maybe I should quite that job. 95% of the time, the job is fine, but when it gets stressful, I am not sure how to handle it, which is weird because most jobs ive done have been filled with way higher stress loads then this one.
Anyways, it's my first posting on here, so don't grill me to hard guys.
Hello, I'm a 23 male.
When traveling, I hung out with a girl I met along the way. We hiked and explored and ate dinners together(just the two of us). The night before I left, we got drunk together (i was gonna try and bang), but she mentioned she had a boyfriend. We walked around alone at night and talked, but I was too beta to try and advance.
Its been about a month, but we are going to meet up again soon. She'll stay at my apartment for a few days. We've been chatting a few times every week, more so now than before. We also use "winky" face a lot.
Should I try and escalate with her again? She knows I was interested AND she agreed to go out of her way and stay in my apartment alone with me.
Ty, anons, and sorry if I don't respond. Sleeping soon.
Life is too boring not to try. Just try to make a move, maybe she's breaking it off with that dude. Just put your arm around her or stroke her hair maybe lean in for a kiss.
>>18532795
Either she reciprocates or you two are finished and you don't have to exhaust any more mental energy over her.
It's a win-win
>>18532882
>>18532916
what these guys said. In my experience, girls travelling are likely to say that as a sort of preventative measure, simple reason being most betas then won't approach their eggs because of some vague moral code of masculine solidarity.
Try your luck, take it from there. Just enjoy yourselves.
My (student) apartment is giving me 750 bucks bc I leased a room. I want to spend it on some shit I'd like, but I feel like I should be investing it instead. What should I do with the money?
Should I ask /biz/?
>>18532779
Depends on the state of your finances. Ask biz, by all means. I would: save some; spend a little; invest a little; give a little to a good cause.
If you don't already have an emergency fund, use it to start one.
