anyone have experience with hiring camgirls? i have never given money to someone over the internet. there is this one girl i am obsessed with. if i had a mansion i would fly her out to be my bride. but i dont really know how it works. they are on chaturbate, so if i bought tokens and tip them and then built a repor with them, would that be the avenue? they usually say like 500 tokens to add me on kik which is a messaging app ive never used. but i dont like the idea of a financial trail like have a chaturbate token purchase on my credit card

You wont find a woman who will find the mindset of 'I'm in school so I can't do anything else" attractive. That's like actual repellent because it shows you're either too stupid or incapable of balancing a normal schedule.

Modern life of jealousy is the most disheartening thing ever. There are literally so many available women. This toxic culture makes them mentally ill and unapproachable. Do you know how many miserable people that will literally sit there and ruin you reputation for an itchy foot.

Now you have to deal with the lgbt calling people a pedophile because they can’t same sex them. It’s just so repugnant. Getting older will not make someone settle for what they did not want when they were younger, it only increases their hatred.

Yeah I'm an autistic adult and I have interest in model trains. It's price is unjustifiable and this isn't going to fix any of my real life problems or have utility beyond making me temporarily feel good. A dcc ready ho scale model without the bells and whistles can cost hundreds of dollars, the smallest 0-4-0 tank engines go for over $100 now and the price isn't going to come down anytime soon. I've been selling off my books and models for this reason as continuing this intense hobby doesn't make sense. I still have that urge because of my autism, it can make it difficult to move on and I wished this was easy.

>this intense hobby doesn't make sense
it doesn't. If you are going to be a materialistic sperg, at least pick a more worthwhile hobby. Bodybuilding/fitness, automotive enthusiasm and sales, firearms, business ventures/entrepreneurship, electronics engineering, software programming, robotics. These have been real avenues for autists- but you fell for the 1970s Boomer retard shit of toy trains that no one really gives a fuck about outside of the 1970s.
>this isn't going to fix any of my real life problems
it wont. I know some that are mega autists too-but atleast have picked obsessions that would make lucrative business. Some of them do Japanese racing car tuning/drifting parts and manufacturing. They took that finicky and obsessive drive about models and construction of- to professional car racing machines. Then they took their products to worldwide production and distribution. They get to feed their autist hobby needs but also feed themselves.
>>
>>34066288
Avoid anything that would lead your sequence of thought towards model trains. Reenginer your environment so that the idea never even occurs to you. Remove all relevant pictures, move furniture to break relevant habits.

Get a new obsession, one that can attract hyper focus but is better for you. It's like putting a big black hole next to a little black hole. Your old obsession will still exist, but the new obsession interferes with it, attracting your thoughts towards to it with more pull than the old one.

Whenever you notice your thoughts are about to slip towards the old obsession, divert it to something else, but this only works if you notice right on the precipice before hyper focus really kicks off.

It helps if there's YouTube videos or some online community surrounding your new obsession that you can identify with. If you feel like you are "one of them" that puts pressure on you subconsciously to think and behave as they do.

Once you kick an obsession you have to keep avoiding it forever. An image, a familiar sound, a comment about it online, will reactivate it. It will then start appearing in your idle imagination again, generating narratives and images, which trigger hyper focus again. Then it will start feeling super important again. It can take only one day of exposure for this to happen.

I'm 31 years old, haven't been employed in 8 years. I'm ugly, live with my parents, have no college diploma and no way to excel in life. I have severe social anxiety and am a very nervous person. I'm very wary of people. But I'm thinking of my options and realize I don't have anything left. So should I bite the bullet and join the coast guard, or try something different?

well I am in quite good shape and not looking for or interested in companionship at all. but mid-late thirties now.

The other issue with the cyber security route is the main training place is across the country so I'd lose my cheap as fuck family leeching life here and that seems to be the main place of employment for that career path too.

so to expound on that thought that while it does pay decently I wouldn't be able to do the kind of savings catchup I could do if I could find a decent job that doesn't make me move. if I could get a decent job here I'd be able to save basically 95% of it if I wanted to which would go a long way to make up for not working for a decade LMAO. but also kinda wanna just die.

I'm 26, and I have zero friends. After I graduated high school, I isolated myself for a number of years until I got my first few jobs during the pandemic. I rarely receive any texts, and if I do it's either from my parents or manager. My first few times putting myself out there socially went terribly and did a number on my self esteem overall, but it was through those experiences I learned more about myself and general social awareness. I'm still growing and I can say I have more confidence now than I did a couple years ago. However, even still, I've had a lot of trouble making connections and friendships with people. At work, I tend to be on good terms with others at first, but it never seems to last and falls apart.

I had one coworker who reached out to me, and we were texting for about a month. We bonded on anxiety and her having adhd. Long story short, her boyfriend didn't want her messaging me, and then she said to another coworker that she thought I was lonely and didn't have friends. I just avoided her from then on. It seems like some of my other coworkers end up not respecting or liking me as much either. I noticed recently that one person I worked with for almost 3 years removed me off their socials.

So, I don't know. I hope I'm not alone into my 30s, but I'm trying to think of other ways I can go out meeting people.

Depends on what you really want out of life to me all the friends I ever had bitched about one another and I chose to cut them out and I was a lot happier being alone than with those people. I will give an example as to how they were like one friend wouldn't talk to another because he never said hello to him when they met.

Sometimes friends are more trouble than they are worth all they want are yes men not real friendships.

All you have to do is what you think you need to do. If you are Nick Reiner release your dad's precious goo. If you are high strung you do better than you. If you're me you'll work hard but maybe lose time trying to even communicate. If you're totally retarded you'll end up homeless and not even care. You're close to knowing that you gotta do something because it's about to shit in your face. Most people take path of least resistance. Take advantage of this by doing a little more.

Be there for him. Be present and encourage him to seek help. If you ever have any genuine, actionable belief that he's going to hurt himself or someone else you call in a welfare check on him. That's worst case scenario but its better than him dying.

If you really can't help you really can't help either cuz he's dumb ur dumb or he's too ridiculously poor or you're not rich enough maybe if you talked to him and he said well you've never helped nobody ever has all my problems are just being stuck in this bs but if he actually asked for help like that, well, of course you would take slight so, he probably could use some help and isn't begging because well maybe you should actually help I mean you are here asking us for help in helping, sometimes it seems people have the right idea, they might even tell the person hey you should move, well maybe they want to they just need the littlest bit of help eh

No shit my life is straight shit even if I'm positive just because things really do suck the people in my same house are nuts and make so much fucking noise. My mom went insane just from being in debt basically. The whole house fucking slams every five seconds. Idk what to do but I'm sick of getting flat out threatened n shit by people this is fucking ridiculous. Nobody should have to deal with this and I'm actually pretty awesome but holy shit is everyone just psycho. The people are legit killers and pedos n shit and my best friends are basically the Reiner's. Too self involved so I'm just in the middle of nowhere getting fucked screwed and ruined by methheads.

I'm 30 and obese. I decided I'm going to try and do something about it but on my own terms. Today is one month give or take a few days and I've lost between 7 and 9 kg, not sure because I didn't take my starting weight accurately. I don't exercise and I don't eat healthy. I just feel like I was able to find the space in my mind to realize that I was eating way too much volume-wise and to bring it down to a reasonable level that still makes me feel happy mentally and satisfied physically. So far I've been eating at a 1400-1500 kcal deficit daily, I've stopped snacking and I've replaced sugary soda with diet soda and some water. Yeah, I know - it's going to slow down, I'm not getting all the nutrients I need from processed food, aspartame causes cancer, whatever. I just don't have the mental capacity to be able to eat healthy or exercise but I really want to lose weight. I probably have some kind of disorder when it comes to food. Doing what I've dobe so far took a lot of effort too, but it doesn't feel like effort now, which is why I'm slightly optimistic. I'm just wondering if you think I should keep going. It feels good to see some results from something I'm actually able to get myself to do.

>Caloric deficit is literally all there is to do when it comes to losing weight.
That is factually untrue.
The KINDS of calories have a great deal of meaning.
CICO is about as correct as BMI, which is to say, it isn't.
CICO really only works if you are eating the SAD diet. While I'm not advocating Keto or paleo, per se, I had a BG scare recently that indicates a fatty liver and insulin resistance.(I'm overweight but NOT obese.)
So worried about the possibilities of type 2 'Beetus, I decided to take a hard stand and throw myself onto ketogenesis by going OMAD(one meal a day,) with >3 carbs in total.
I've been eating ~3500-4000 calories a day for the last 12 days and have already lost 14 pounds.
It's NOT a pleasant diet and I don't intend to stay on it forever, but going into ketosis is one of the only ways you can begin unlocking all the stored fat in your liver, which is the root of the problem.

>>34062784
Yes, Anon, keep going.
I'd seriously drop the "Diet drinks" and Aspartame isn't nearly as bad as sucralose. That stuff WILL destroy your guts.You're going to have to become a label reader from now on, anon.
Drink clean water, try brewing up some un-sugared fruit teas like Hibiscus or orange spice teas, and start drinking just sparkling water.
*Remember: a true teaspoon of real sugar only has 15 calories. It isn't evil, but most of the bottled syrup Americans drink has around 3-600 calories of just HFCS as the calories.

...leftover rice, cottage cheese, sunflower seeds, nuts and/or whatever other things you might like in a salad.
Best salad dressings don't have a lot of sugar, but apple cider vinegar and olive oil are a good go to, and if you NEED to have ranch, make it yourself. The store brand packet mixes are just like the HVR ones and it's literally 1 cup mayo, 1 cup milk (whole please, fuck that 2% garbage,) Whisk and chill for a half hour.

The thing about these salads is you can eat until satiety and not blow past your daily calories. You won't feel deprived either.

Buy popcorn and a decent popcorn popper too. Don't bother with microwave popcorn, it's a waste of money and is super shitty for you.(the more you toxin load, the harder it will be to shed weight.) The fiber is very filling and HEY! didja know that the dollar store now sells MSG? Most Krogers have it too for ~$3.
TFW you realize that the 68's reports on MSG were just a hitpiece put out by Jap Haters?
No shit, the chinks just loved it...
https://www.sciencehistory.org/stories/magazine/the-rotten-science-behind-the-msg-scare/

Eventually,(now is actually pretty good due to cold and extra passive calorie burning,) you'll need to start going for walks at least an hour long. You can do this at night if you don't want to see anyone.


Hope that helps, anon. You can do it. You have the Intarrweebs, obviously, so you can look up all kinds of simple recipes for low cal foods and condiments that will help you not feel deprived.

Getting to fuck as many women and trannies as I wanted seemed like the perfect life. But God didn't give me the penis for porno films.

TLDR: Can antidepressants offset the mental effects of physical illness?

I have gastroparesis which leaves me in a lot of pain, as well as malnourished and sleepless. This has me despaired, abulic and thoroughly disconnected from life.

I’ve been to my doctor on numerous occasions, and they keep putting me back on Amitriptyline (which I was on for a couple months at a low dose, to minimal benefit.) I quit it a couple months ago for some reason. I then spent the following months teaching myself cbt and mindfulness, desperately trying to get my life back. It’s certainly working, but I feel to be plateauing. It does little for my lack of pleasure and enthusiasm, which is my main concern.

My question is whether I should actually restart. Considering that the lack of nutrition, exercise and sleep from my condition is undoubtedly causing my symptoms, would antidepressants even help?

If you do take them, just prepare by making sure everyone in your life is aware and BEGGING them to help you not go out of character. I've seen people get given SNRIs for shit like fibro without considering their risk factors and suddenly they're really acting out of character especially during the titration but once its active.

And the issue is you wont be able to tell yourself that you're being a menace or destroying your life at the time. So making sure you have actual good people will matter.

Otherwise it can help, but if anything ask about taking it temporarily. Just to help you feel well enough to implement your lifestyle changes, then you could come off it and the implemented changes would help buffer

I mean, the answer you need is already in your picrel. Give your life to Christ and forgive her first and fore-most. Lord knows that you've sinned many times against Him, so shall you not forgive her for her transgressions against you? Read Matthew 18:21-35, and Matthew 6:14-15. Go from there and see where the Lord leads you on what to do.
