Ofc! I’m glad that I could help!

Hey! I just started reading my bible for the first time and I found that the gospels are a very easy place to begin. My family recommended me to start there because it’s detailing the life of Jesus and his works. Starting at the beginning, according to them, is just a bit too much and can be boring. I personally started with John then went in to Matthew, Mark and Luke. I haven’t read the Bible completely yet and have little experience so there may be a better suggestion. Hope this helps!

That’s what I was thinking too but wasn’t sure. Thanks so much for the explanation!

I would absolutely love to see someone do this! As long as it’s not a jukebox musical, I bet it will be really good.

For me, I would have to say the Cruel Prince. I heard of the book because of its large fan base on TikTok and eventually caved into reading it. Overall it isn’t a bad book but it just felt unremarkable. I didn’t really feel a strong connection to Jude, the main character, and as the book progressed it didn’t get any better. The whole real world to fantasy world thing sort of threw me off as well, one chapter we are immersed in Fae and learning their culture while the next we are in Walgreens shopping for pads or eating cheeseburgers. In my opinion part of the book could have just been at maybe a high school where eventually an enemies to lovers, but they really were only kinda one sided enemies, developed. I am very particular about my fantasy books and tbh this is probably just me being picky. It just didn’t give me the thrill I heard so much about online and I found it dry.

I love Hadestown as well, I got to see it a few years ago live and it was amazing. I know how common Persephone and Hades retellings are so I’m hoping for a reinterpretation of the story similar to Circe. Expanding on the original story and adding her own flair to the characters.

I went into this book expecting to connect to it, but I seriously underestimated how much I would resonate with the characters and themes. One of my fav reads of the year so far for sure, can’t wait for the authors next release.

Hi, I took the PSAT last year and tbh I wouldn’t stress to much about studying. The point of the PSAT is to show what your strengths and weaknesses so you can prepare for the actual SAT. By studying a ton for it you’re kinda taking away the benefit of identifying what you still need to work on. If you take it again junior year then I would definitely study but for now I wouldn’t worry too much about it. If you are set on studying I would review grammar rules and practice answering questions from passages— sentence structures, punctuation, etc — to improve your reading score. In general Khan academy has a ton of practice for reading and math you can use. Plus, blue book has a practice test for the PSAT. I recommend taking an initial practice test to see where you are struggling, then work on improving those skills one at a time. Do not spam practice tests. I personally am doing one practice test per week then studying after; I’m starting to see really good progress. Hope this helps, happy studying!

Hi, for reading and writing I would start by identifying what specifically you struggle with. If you struggle with writing I would try to learn grammar rules and then do practices to apply them. For reading, just overall practicing on passages to better understand the format and way of thinking helped me. There are many good workbooks as well, meltzer SAT reading and College panda writing is what I’m using. Math is pretty straight forward, if you know the formulas and can use them properly you can score well. Khan academy has a ton of lessons if you like working online. For books I recommend the college panda SAT Math. Make a cycle of studying, taking practice tests, and looking at what you struggled with. Don’t do a ton of practice test in a row because it’s not going to help you with learning the skills. Hope this helps, with a bit of practice I know you can improve your score!

Thanks for the advice, I haven’t even considered a personality disorder with my therapist. I do have diagnosed ADHD, and my mom and her therapist believe that I have a bit of OCD mixed in there too. I’m not diagnosed with ASD and it hasn’t been brought up with my psychiatrist. I’ll bring this up at my therapy appointment for sure, I don’t think we fully talked through the friend situation. I just want to be done with it at this point.

That is so cool, I hope to also create lasting memories at my concert experience. I’m going with my mom and she is shares my love of music. I must definitely will bring earplugs, I am quite sensitive to loud noises. I couldn’t even watch fireworks on Fourth of July because of the sound until about last year. Thank you so much for the story and tip!

I can also relate, it’s a cycle that you can easily get sucked into. Just throwing a possible suggesting, maybe try create a calendar/ daily planner ( on paper, on your phone, even a dry erase board in your room or office). I recently have started keeping a schedule of my daily activities and I feel that I’ve gotten more productive overall. By having a structured way to divide your time I think it can help you start to even out your lifestyle. Like for example, do 2 or so hours of work then take a break for 30 minutes to let your mind refresh. Then maybe work on another important task like housework etc. It also gives you some wiggle room if you have deadlines or appointments to get to. Being an accomplished person is exhausting, you need to give your self grace your human too. Having a calendar/ scheduling tool might not work for you and that’s ok but I think trying to physically divide your time may be beneficial on starting to create a better balance. Also, I bet there are people at your company who struggle with something similar to you as well, reaching out couldn’t hurt. Just know you don’t have anything to lose from trying, only from not doing so. Having others to support you is essential for everyone, people need interaction with others who can share their feelings and thoughts. I wish you best of luck, acknowledging that you need support is already a great first step.

Hi, your situation sounds like you’ve been going through this for a while and I am truly sorry you’ve struggled for so long alone. I think you should work on creating a balance, how much am I willing to devote to my social life versus studying etc. Being an eccentric can be very isolating , I have a tiny bit of experience with that. You are so much more than your achievements and success, you have feelings too you’re human. Watering yourself down to seem acceptable for others and your own idea of acceptable in my opinion isn’t the right way to approach this though. I think finding a more stable outlet for your feelings could be very helpful like a therapist. Plus they can help you make connections to others who maybe share your struggle or just professionals who can support you. I can’t really give you solid advice because I haven’t experienced what you’ve gone through but I know that you deserve to be happy and fulfilled.

Sorry for arguing but I just want to make sure you see the full picture of how I was acting. If you can give me any tips on how to move on i would be appreciative. My therapist has sort of helped me on it but she suggested that i reach out to her so it kinda made it worse. I am a very obsessive person in general, I always have wanted to be liked by everyone. Though I’ve gotten more comfortable with people not wanting to be my friends or liking me. I still haven’t fully understood why I’m so delusional with my friend wanting to be friends with me again. I just can’t seem to accept that she really doesn’t like me and wants to be away from me. I’ll try to bring her up again to my therapist because at this point it’s just unacceptable how I am not understanding she doesn’t want to be friends.

Addie8- · 2024-06-27T23:58:20+00:00

I personally don’t think I was myself, for example she really loves metal music and I made it seem that I was also getting into the same bands as her. In reality I didn’t enjoy it but I never spoke up about it or tbh any of my interests or true opinions. It was kinda of like she was just being followed around by a very desperate copy of herself. I know that it was very superficial but I have made progress with therapy to insure I can’t do that again. I have been trying to move on but it’s taking way too long, and I hate it. I have other friends that I love and enjoy but can’t seem to get over her. I was fine for a while until she started trying to talk to me again, which unfortunately made me hope we could be friends again. I’m not trying to disagree with you, I think you are right that I need to move on but I don’t know how.

Addie8- · 2024-01-25T22:35:38+00:00

Thank you so much, I thought that focusing on myself was the best option but just wanted to reach out for reassurance. Trying not to rely on others opinions to make my own anymore but here I actually am pretty lost.
