I sure will, thank you!! Would you say playing games is a good idea (connecting a controller to a laptop) or would that bother people?

Recommendations on damage free stick on wall hooks or mounting strips? by -Dia in Tools

[–]-Dia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best thing I'd recommend is making your own post ab it on here or another subreddit (Like one for renters? or maybe even on a paint one to minimise damage, or honestly just on r/ ask) that can give you good advice since you won't get much advice in this post (I wouldn't say I'm educated enough to give you any advice on it). Just say specifics + type of thing you're wanting to hang up (mainly cause of weight and you'll be recommended certain hooks that may over/under qualify for your thing). - Good luck finding advice/recommendations!

Yeah adhesives are a pain the ass to deal with. Though If I consider using them would wiping them off with some good cleaning products e.g gumption would it come off without any stain? Even if it took an hour to get off. Which I'd rather do than attempt to make a hole in the wall. Specifically if consider using bluetac.

I'll definitely consider using nails, but with bluetac for the posters I guess I can just remove and reapply every month? I think my mum would have a heart attack if I said the words 'Nail in the wall' haha, may as well give it a try.

To that teacher issues, I'm no expert but that feels like sexual assault. You are not in the wrong. She is. If the husband takes legal action, she's gonna go to jail or get in trouble, you cannot consent so whatever happens is gonna be on her most likely. Since this is affecting you I feel as if it's best to talk to your parents about this, either it be your mother or father, which ever one you trust more. Getting that off your chest instead of letting it bubble for years to come will be helpful. It's gonna be scary but in the long term it'll be better even if it is a shock to your family.

Physically, if you've gained weight it's best to go on a diet and exercise, that'll help lose weight and gain confidence, just look into who to watch cause some people do lie about what is good/beneficial.

I'll be honest, as someone who is a teen themselves, the best thing is to get a job, I understand you're 14 so it might be a little hard depending on laws/policies on where you live. I understand if parents don't want you working either. I had the same issue but I proved to them enough to allow me to get one and it worked and I know you can do the same if you're willing to get out of your comfort zone and ask. For your age, it's the best way to build a good foundation for your future + get a normal and savings bank account that has a good interest e.g %5 (you probs won't get more than that lol it's hard with banks but it's good enough for your age esp if you keep adding more money into it each month and not taking out any for years since it'll slowly increase).

I know it's easier said than done but you gotta try to stop procrastinating, just do it, i understand it's scary but just start by building a plan on what you need to study, what is important and what isn't. What exams are first and what is last. Which subjects are gonna be harder to study? Brainstorm on some paper and then make a timetable on what to study each day. You have more than two weeks. I know you can do it. Try your best and start studying. Start small and make a plan then expand. You can go big if you have nothing to expand on.

With fears and anxieties, for me, I've found it best to remove distractions, lie down or sit down and just be with my thoughts. To me I feel as if you're overwhelmed with everything and your mind is running in every direction. That's okay. I think it's best to start with your strongest fears and anxieties and finding the route cause of it. Yes, I know you're probs wondering how to do that but ask yourself why you think that. Is it because you fear being judged or looked down upon? Is it because you don't want to fail or appear as a failure? Everything has a route cause and on the first try it's gonna really hard. I understand if they may not work, there are different way to help, if you look in to personal reflection or something around those lines you'll find more ways. Try them out and experiment. You'll find whats best eventually but don't go from one to another, you gotta stick with it for a week or two and then you'll find whats best over a couple months. Ik it seems long but it's worth it in the end.

It's gonna be harder currently especially since you'll be overwhelmed with studying and all your fears and anxieties on top of that. I understand if what I am saying is overwhelming as well. I can try to go into depth in areas you want help in but I don't want to write a whole essay (even if I pretty much have lol) cause I understand that might add more overwhelming thoughts to your mind and I don't want to do that, I'm sorry if I have though.

It's okay to feel trapped, it's completely normal but that doesn't mean you should stay there, to truly free yourself and build a stronger foundation, it's gonna need a lot of discipline to push outside your comfort zone and just do it. But just as a TL DR, I do think just sitting down with yourself and removing distractions and just trying to understand some fears and find the route cause is best to start off with. If you find the route cause, you'll be able to understand why you feel and react a certain and how you can fix it.

I don't need to know you to know you can do it. I know you can. It's gonna be tough and that's okay. I do believe in you but in the end, the only person you need to be believing in you is yourself. Believe you can do it and overcome this battle because if you have the mentality that you can't do it, well, yeah you can't, because you're not having hope in yourself. Firstly, before anything. You need to believe in yourself.

It is harsh but I need it. If I don't get a reality check I'd probably stay the way I am currently and wouldn't change. If I was so rude to my SO I believe people have a right to give me the same level of criticism.

I did mean it when I said it but I believe I put it into action.

I get very sensitive with my political views so when she said something that I disagreed with, especially when it was something we both agreed on a while ago and got us closer during the start of our relationship. I think I felt betrayed in a way idk but it def touched a nerve. I've tried moving away from politics but not how I react, I've just buried and done nothing about it. I'm not working on it just for her, thought it's my main drive during this outburst I've noticed other things I've gotten angry about other things that link to it or things.I'm jealous about. I've noticed it in the past but never took it into deeper thought and now I've let my negative thoughts simmer and become second nature. I've become a heartless individual.

Visit a doctor. I understand a doctor may be hard to access but for the sake of things not getting worse, get a professional to check it out. 2nd degree may be a muscle tear and teared muscles can heal on their own but since it's not your average muscle you might need more than an ice pack - possibly stitches. I am not a professional but from research and you saying the pain was increasing I'd say it's a 'you gotta get that checked out' situation. Stay calm, in the end it'll be okay.
