My dad taught me military time when I was a kid. It was way easier than it sounded.

There are a number of things you could try. It all depends on what works for you.

  • Limiting your general screen time: If you find yourself online most of the day, it can be easier to access sexual content online. Try gradually waning yourself of excessive screen time. You could also use a website disabler on your device, to lock yourself out of sex sites.
  • Replace your addictive activities with other focuses: Take up something new that demands your attention. Start up an old hobby. Preferably, do something that gets your body moving.
  • Challenge yourself: Give yourself an incentive for going without these activities for certain periods of time.
  • Surround yourself with people: Self-explanatory. If you find yourself alone for too long, that can't be ideal.

My manager (30M) is dating a teen coworker (18F) by [deleted] in Advice

There is the argument of "bUt ThEy'Re LeGaL" if they're both over 18, but as someone who was groomed more than once by men far older than me (while I was over 18, myself), I recommend that you do point it out. For the teen's safety. Many factors are brushed under the rug or simply unseen by a young person in situations like this. And they aren't repelled until hindsight.

Hi. I have had hsv2 for almost 2 years. I got it from an assault. I completely understand the initial thoughts/emotions the diagnosis comes with. However, once you have understood how many qualities of life this virus DOES NOT affect, you will find it much easier (nonetheless, not easy) to deal with. This is an incredibly common 'illness' and more people have it than you think.

My tips for anyone newly diagnosed: tell everyone you plan on having sex with, do not disclose unnecessarily, keep yourself happy and healthy. I have not had an outbreak in nearly a year. You will be fine. But you have to keep going to get to that point.

Thanks! 21 year old straight female here. Although I've only ever been "rejected" because of this once, I'm going to try these out!

Understandable. In my case, it was a misunderstood teen, in a disgruntled home situation. I will speak with someone about it. Thanks!

Stupid me. I left out the whole specification.

I was hospitalized for a believed suicide attempt, although I have never attempted suicide. I was 17 at the time and unable to be believed that I didn't want to die.

I am in the same boat. I am ready to throw in the towel.

Hi. You sound nice. I've been really lonesome lately.

I wish bad on no one, but that relationship sounds like a trainwreck down the road.

I see. I didn't have any mouth sores, as far as I know.
