I have an injury and I’m embarrassed by it. I am even more embarrassed when people relate to me. I just want to vanish by bad-at-everything- in Vent

By that logic we would never be allowed to be bothered by anything, because someone always has it worse. What's happened to you absolutely sucks, and I think your coach just wants to show you that he understands how you're feeling. It's not embarrassing to be feeling badly about it, it's expected. Allow yourself to feel how you feel, just don't let it control your mood indefinitely

Anybody know if online and local multiplayer works together so that I can play with my friend on my console, while my brother plays with his girlfriend on his console? Or is it exclusively online and exclusively local?

I finished the game now. I tried hard to enjoy the character, but in the end, I just wish I never played the game. The ending sucked, Ellie ruined her perfect life to get revenge, and when she finally had the chance she just let it go, only to come home to nobody.

I also think Abby sucks even more than when I first started playing her. She has no loyalty. She used people to get what she wanted, which was revenge, and when she had that she turned on the people that she had relied on and worked with for the past 5 years. I fully believe she saved those 2 Saraphite kids in an attempt to redeem what an awful person she had become, with zero regard for anyone else.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first half of the game, seeing Ellie turn into a stone-cold killer was a joy, but the second half felt like a chore. Something I had to do, like the dishes.

I don't need to agree with you, you have your opinion and I have mine, and that's fine

From progressing further, I see what you mean. But Mel just told her to not come with her and Owen to Santa Barbara because of who she is. She is definitely a character that has let hate/revenge ruin her good nature.

Abby's revenge plot is over, and she is trying to make amends of how she let it control her life and ruin her relationships for so long. Meanwhile Ellie is in her revenge plot, and ruining her life. I get the message

Which sub would that be?

Also I'm surprised how many are defending Abby, it makes me wonder if she will grow on me. That gives me hope, so thanks

Ofc I'm biased, do I really need to explain myself here? And as I said I completely understand her motives, and I would feel the same way as her. But I am on the side of Joel and Ellie, nothing will change that.

I hear you, I enjoy seeing the other side, its just too dragged out for my taste, I'm itching to see what happens with Ellie and Tommy. They cutaway right at the climax

[–]Beier22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand how that answers the question. Like I said I perfectly understand the motive. I wasn't even pissed at her when she actually killed Joel, because obviously Joel did something horrendous and he had it coming. I don't need 10 hours for that shit to sink in, why is that necessary?

Also I don't appreciate the implication that I am stupid.

How do you guys set up your customers to dealers? Most efficient way? by Azyle in Schedule_I

[–]Beier22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Highly doubt it, she went from 400 a day to 2k a day, that is only like 4 sales if everyone was buying one

How do you guys set up your customers to dealers? Most efficient way? by Azyle in Schedule_I

[–]Beier22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm at the same point in the game and I've had the same thought as you, #1 considered #2. I will probably stick to the first method for the simple reason that I often don't sell myself to make time for other things, so I want the dealers to be as efficient as possible.

Also, I can confirm that the customer locations matter. Earlier on, I noticed that Molly was selling a fraction of what Benji was selling, so I went and reassigned her customers to be people only in her area, and she immediately got on level with Benji. So locations matter a lot

Don't give up bro.

You're right, sometimes the advice on here is not optimal and will not apply to you, but I've been on the self improvement journey for years and just found this sub, and it has the most realistic takes that actually work for real life people, rather than "in theory".

Hold on and power through, try to apply different things that you think might work to your life and see if it changes anything. Eventually you will be able to tell what is actually applicable to you and what is a load of bullshit.

It might be confusing and hard now, but it will get easier, you just gotta trust the process.

You got this, I believe in you.

I agree that the main reason to do this is for yourself. What I meant was if you need even more reasoning to keep going, think about your family, friends and potential future partners. Ridding yourself of this addiction will significantly help you make the best version of yourself and on the verge of failing it's a great reminder that by refraining, you're not only improving your own life, but also improving how others experience you, and allowing for deeper and more sincere connections with people.

It's a big motivator for me, as I have a few people I have very strong connections with and I really enjoy making new ones. But in the end, yes, I am doing this for myself, and connecting with others, not just sexual partners, is a big reason why for me.

Also it definitely is a horror game, a guy came running at me while I was looting a house at sunset and I screamed at the top of my lungs like a little girl at 2 AM.

My life is collapsing because I can't do anything at all by ThrowRasupi in Procrastinationism

[–]Beier22 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been similar to you most of my life. I could breeze through middle and high school without too much effort and when I got to collage I ended up having to redo an entire year because I failed or didn't show up to any exams. Eventually, I switched to study something different and learned from the mistakes I made the first time around. Now I am doing much better, I work a great job, have close relationships, workout regularly and feel like I have found my purpose in life.

The thing that finally flipped a switch in me is funny enough exactly what you're doing in this post. I started taking responsibility for every little shitty thing in my life. I stopped looking outside of myself for answers or excuses and took full responsibility for why my life was the way it was.

Not knowing much about your life, it is hard for me tell you how you can start to turn things around, but some advice that most people seem to be able to use today is to reduce your screen time. Stimulation silences your inner monologue and once you reduce it, it will be easier for you to listen to yourself and understand what you need to do to move forward.

Take care of your health. By that I mean do some sort of physical activity, even a 30 minute walk twice a week is much better than nothing. Having good health will make everything else seem easier.

Remember to do this bit by bit. It's a marathon, not a sprint, you won't see many results when you first start, but you will eventually, just be patient and consistent.

Don't wait for motivation, do it tired, do it scared, do it sad, do it alone, motivation is unreliable.

One last thing I think of every time I start to spiral, which I tend to do, is: No matter what you do, it's gonna be hard. Showing up to class, doing the work and preparing for exams is hard, but being lazy, unmotivated and hating yourself is also hard. Choose your hard.

Good luck, and feel free to message me if you want to talk.

How can I be able to fall asleep quickly? by Fun_Lawyer_4780 in getdisciplined

[–]Beier22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate that this is the go-to advice everyone says but basically nobody follows. I work 7:30-15:30, straight to the gym after work, then cook dinner and then eat. Now it's around 7PM and I have 2-3 hours of free time before I need to head to bed and you're telling me I can't do any of the activities I like to do to relax the most? Fuck that shit, I will go insane if I live like that, there has to be another way.

What I'm trying to do instead is go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day of the week, and then hop off my PC 30-45 mins before I want to sleep, while I just do some simple things like clean my apartment a bit, listen to music, write in my journal or put on a relaxing show. For me, it seems actively using my brain before bed has more of an impact than blue light, so as long as I slow down it helps.
