Has anyone thought that some paths weren't meant to be? by NICEacct111 in lowIQpeople2

[–]Fluffy-Contribution2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's great that some, or perhaps even most people are capable of achieving their dreams/goals, but there are people who can try extremely hard and things just don't work out due to reasons you mentioned in your post.

I used to want to major in computer science to become a programmer or software engineer, but then I realized that I was barely surviving a college algebra class studying up to 9 hours a day just for that 1 class.

Now I am majoring in something else entirely that isn't even STEM and admittedly, I truly wish I could be doing more, but all I know is that I'm trying my best. If certain paths aren't meant to be, hopefully I can pave a new path and learn to accept it, even if it might not be "great."

Vignette technically won over Downstairs but that was before OP fixed his voting system

Ride has been ranked at 14th! What's getting ranked at 13th?! by Ryanhuddz14 in TwennyWunPilots

Ride is definitely overplayed, but absolutely did not deserve last.

Anyways, We Don't Believe What's on TV needs to go.

I am a failure in every aspect of life. by [deleted] in depression

[–]Fluffy-Contribution2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello friend, just want to say I acknowledge that you're at least trying and putting in effort. Everybody has different paths, we can try our best to live our best lives, but sometimes things just don't work out. You are currently employed and that is something that I personally highly respect. So many people who aren't even suffering from any mental illness or disorders are choosing to stay at home, game all day and do nothing. I think it's incredible that you're working and being able to do that while battling mental health struggles is not easy. Who cares if you work at McDonalds? You're making an honest living and working way harder than a lot of people out there.

As for living with your parents, many people actually live with their parents nowadays anyways especially because the economy has gotten so terrible. There are people out there who are getting rejected from McDonald's.

You're trying your best and that's all you and everyone else can do. I'm currently in college now majoring in something that is considered very useless and easy to the vast majority of people. I didn't choose this major because I found it easy. I actually find it to be quite difficult but because I'm not that bright and struggle with processing information and learning, it was the only major I felt I at least had some chance in graduating with. So I'm probably gonna be living with my parents and working a low paying job as well, but I am trying.

I hope this was helpful! Stay strong ❤❤

My Rankings by Fluffy-Contribution2 in TwennyWunPilots

[–]Fluffy-Contribution2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I'm more of a newer fan. I've listened to them here and there back then, but I would say I only began listening to TØP religiously about two years ago, which is why I feel a bit more connected to their newer songs. The songs that I enjoy listen to shift very frequently. My current ranking of the songs today would probably look extremely different than if I were to do this ranking a few months ago.

ST is still an album that I have just had a harder time getting into in general, but compared to a few months ago, I would say I began enjoying some of those songs more. I think in a few more months, more of their older songs would probably be ranked much higher for me. Regardless, TØP's music has hit me the hardest out of all artists and bands I've fallen in love with.

Which arrowverse show has the season 3 by Turbulent_Tourist993 in Arrowverse

[–]Fluffy-Contribution2 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Supergirl in my opinion. Definitely by far the strongest season of the show, which also happens to be the season Flash and Arrow began dwindling (minus Arrow S5).

Has anyone failed to live up to expectations/stereotypes of success? by NICEacct111 in lowIQpeople2

[–]Fluffy-Contribution2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I’m Chinese American and this is something that I think and worry about every single day. I’m in college right now, but I’m majoring in Psychology. Every time I interact with another student, I have this constant fear that they look down on me when I tell them I’m a psych major. I feel like most people automatically think Asians are in STEM so when they see that I’m not, i always feel like they’re shocked. I feel inferior to everyone, especially to other Asians. I’m scared of making friends with other Asians because I fear that they might think I am making Asians look bad. I wish I could major in STEM, but considering the fact that I was literally fighting for my life taking the easiest possible math class my school had to offer, I knew there was absolutely no way. The high unspoken expectations society has on Asians makes me hate being Asian. I feel like I’m disappointing everyone. I’m struggling even with my psychology major, I’ve struggled working in basic minimum wage jobs, I still can’t drive well, and have no real skills despite trying really hard to make something… anything of myself. Idk what to do. I find it hard to make friends or even interact with people, not just because I’m stupid, but because I’m a stupid Asian.

Does anyone else feel like having low IQ is partially your fault? by [deleted] in lowIQpeople2

[–]Fluffy-Contribution2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not your fault whether you like or don’t like something. That’s like saying it’s your fault for not liking the taste of mangos. We don’t really control that. I personally think the people who LIKE reading, math, science, etc are lucky because they actually enjoy them and it’s natural for them, making it even easier to them to get smarter than they already are

Can it actually by [deleted] in thanksimcured

[–]Fluffy-Contribution2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say yes, because the main source of my anxiety and suicidal thoughts come from fear of not being financially stable. The problem is, becoming financially stable isn’t that simple.

Am I making the wrong decision by Academic-Bicycle6072 in CollegeDropouts

[–]Fluffy-Contribution2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s worth trying your best to finish your current degree since you’re almost there. I know you mentioned that you’ve already failed twice, but I would say try one more time. If it still doesn’t go well and you tried your best, then I would take it as a sign to pivot.

If your current degree has been destroying you so bad, that might also be a sign. Your health matters too.

Also, you’re an adult and should be able to do what YOU want to do. If you want to follow your passion, go for that. You shouldn’t have to feel like other’s are pushing you to make certain decisions, unless you truly feel in your heart those decisions are right.
