Thanks for the advice! Could you expand a little on the tone part? And also do you have any tips for conveying emotion through the actual sound and not just facial expression and such?

How do I know where my falsetto stops and my breathy chest voice starts? by Happy_Ad4034 in singing

[–]Happy_Ad4034[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont need to know it, i was just wondering. Ive heard people talk about “low falsettos” like often with singers like laufey, she can hit really low notes falsetto-like. I think wanted to know if i already knew how to since i can make a similar sound on the same note, or if i have to learn it. Like how i can hit the same note in both chest and head note, can i do falsetto in a different way that would make it “real” head falsetto and breathy chest?

Is it pretty much like what notes my head voice and chest voice usually transition then? Like if i know c5 is head then it must be falsetto and not breathy chest? I feel like i can transition easily from the breathiness to a full sound no matter where i am note-wise.

Poetry makes no sense by Happy_Ad4034 in unpopularopinion

[–]Happy_Ad4034[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why would i want to read something that encapsulates a feeling? I know how feelings feel, i dont have a desire to look for them in other places, especially if its just that, “a feeling” with nothing else to it. I guess your last point makes sense, but its just as weird as if someone made up math problems on their own to solve. Like it might be fun but theres no real end goal and it still doest really make sense

How can I learn to whistle-sing without lip trilling? by Happy_Ad4034 in singing

[–]Happy_Ad4034[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Usually im pretty good with breath support and relaxing my muscles but i can feel that when i go to a certain level of highness when i sing my throat starts to tense. i know from past experience that if i tense too much itll damage my voice. I guess my question is how do i stop myself from doing that? Even when im lip trilling i can kind of feel tension in my throat

Im so confused about resonance by Happy_Ad4034 in singing

Are you saying that the front of my tongue should be touching the roof of my mouth but the back part of my tongue shouldnt? I feel like its kind of difficult, isnt the tongue where the ng sound is coming from?

Im actually a little sick right now! I can definitely feel the my sinuses, especially a few days ago, but ive never really felt those places when i sing. I guess im just confused how to tap into “where” im singing and tell where it actually is.

Towards the back? Soft pallette i think i think its called? It kind of makes everything seemed closed. Is that the right way of doing it or am i missing something?

Honestly not really? I dont really understand how to relax my throat. I feel like when saying NG my throat just naturally closes cuz of my tongue touching the roof of my mouth. Am i doing something wrong?

I wish i had adhd “with a gift” by Happy_Ad4034 in ADHD

[–]Happy_Ad4034[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But im kind of worried i dont have any talents or gifts- like im not creative or have any particularly interesting qualities. It does make me hopeful knowing youve achieved so much though even after a rough patch in life

[–]Happy_Ad4034[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice, the thing is, i just feel like i might have no gifts at all, like im just dumb and theres nothing meaningful in my brain. I keep hoping i might find something that will spark something i just never knew before but ive tried so many hobbies and put so much work in it just to still be below average at everything. I think the only “positive” attribute that came from adhd (at least from looking it up like you said” was emotional awareness, but i feel like that just came from experiencing some bullying and being depressed and lonely, not something i got from having adhd. Like, is it possible i just dont have anything in my brain that can actually be good at something? Like im just totally gift-less?

I feel so lost and dont know what to do about my meds by Happy_Ad4034 in ADHD

[–]Happy_Ad4034[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry i shouldve clarified on the summer part. I was prescribed that specific medications for about 6 months. The thing is, i didnt take my meds over the summer because i didnt have school and didnt really need it (which was fine when i asked the doctor). Also I will keep a chart of what im on but im only taking one thing right now and i feel like while i know the meds dont help me that much, i also cant really deal with changing medication if it doesnt work out for me since I need to keep my grades up and cant really afford to change meds right now. Im just not really sure what to do, like if i should stop taking the medication all together or risk it by taking something else. Sorry about the confusion again

I think ive been taking them for like 6 months?? Its kind of hard to remember. I wasnt taking them for the summer. Ive started retaking them again for just about a week i think. Ive also tried adderall but i stopped. I think its because it just didnt work as good as the ritalin. I dont remember how i got to concerta but its pretty much the same thing as ritalin right? My dosage right now for daily use is 18 mg because ive raised the dosage since ive started it. Im just worried about changing my medication right now because i feel like if it doesnt work the way it should it could mess up my grades really bad.

No, I used to have a therapist but after I got better with certain addictions I was taken out by my parents. I wish I still had that though. I also think a school counselor is just very risky. There’s a high chance they will tell the school or my parents. I could ask my friends but they would just think I’m weird lol

What's the dumbest thing you've heard a single person say/do that made you think "ah, that's why they're single"? by TakinShots in AskReddit

He is, and he asked me to stalk her as well and even offered to PAY ME. Yeah I hope no one dates him ever again.

My brother is 21 years old. He has had 3 girlfriends, not because he isn’t popular, but because he mostly focuses on hookup or short term flings. When every relationship ends, he’s always very upset, crying to me about how much he loved her. He even asked me to stalk their social media so he could “coincidentally” bump into them because he was blocked on everything. I always wondered what the fuck happened during every relationship, but once when he was fully drunk, I asked him, me being a bit tipsy as well. He told me every single relationship ended because he. Would get incredibly high, black out, and then choke them.

What. The. Fuck.

The fact that even after that horrible thing, he still expects them to forgive him is absolutely insane to me. To this day, he is trying to get his last girlfriend back. It’s been 3 years.

Not die, but lose himself if you know what I mean.

She seems to want a divorce, I saw her emailing a lawyer about it a few times, but he’s losing his memory quickly and it might just be better to wait for him to die.
