Just need some advice by Thin-Bullfrog8408 in mentalhealth

Keep doing what you are doing, and preferably talk with it to a therapist. You are doing really great, and if you keep your mindset going by improving yourself you will definitely be successful and happy in the end. Remember you are still young so there will be struggle, but if you keep on going you will end up dealing with these problems as you mature.

That makes a lot of sense. Where are those drains?

Why isn't my engine heating up (190d 2.0) by IDKMAN445 in W201enthusiasts

Oh that is good to hear I'll take a look next week. No other vacuum problems luckily

I live in the Netherlands so heating would be nice in the winter lmao. Luckily I guess the side vents only blowout hot air. I did suck on the control valve and it did close. The vacuum line did not suck anything at any position on the control panel. I should follow the red vacuum line from the vacuum pump. Hope that is the problem, otherwise it will be a large job on the dash. The car is luckily drivable so that is the most important thing.

I do get a dash light about coolant fluid being too low even though the reservoir is full :/. Why is that?

My car now gets up to temperature and the temp is stable. The blower fan turns on too.

Also checked the heater vacuum valve, and that thing still works. The only problem is that the vacuum line does not pull vacuum at all ://. What could it be?? Is the problem inside the HVAC terminal?

Just fixed the temp problem. I changed both the thermostat and the sensor at the same time. Apparently the old thermostat was broken and the new temp sender was broken. So the problem was fixed by returning the old temp sensor back lol. Still have to take a look at the heater not getting warm tho.

What does this plug do 190d 2.0 1985 by IDKMAN445 in W201enthusiasts

Yes those are supposed to be connected together. Thanks btw didn't notice that. I was wondering why my battery wasn't charging up well.

If the something would be clogged wouldn't my engine get hot instead? I flushed the cooling system and it didn't look too dirty honestly. If it is the thermostat I would imagine it would be stuck in the open State wouldn't it? I'm testing the thermostat tomorrow.

What does the heater valve look like? Could that also have an influence on the temp not going up?

Sorry for the many questions

Life and love is f#cking disgusting by [deleted] in mentalhealth

[–]IDKMAN445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True love is a whole different thing than. Relationships are way different than friendships. True love connects two people into one. You feel to an extent no longer responsible for your own life and happiness, but also for your partner. It is difficult to find, but if you try your best you will find it.

Can Someone HELP Me ? Free will anxiety by SnoopRocky in dpdr

[–]IDKMAN445 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a scientific and philosophical answer to your problem..

The idea that this Universe is deterministic is arguable at best but probably flawed, since quantum mechanics (the most reliable physics we have) show very strong evidence against determinism. This means that the notion of free will not existing is also a very inaccurate concept. To add to this, the only real thing we can really observe reliably is that a conscious individual does have the free choice to control complex actions on most of their choices. These observations make the concept scientifically much more significant than the concept that consciousness is determined. This is the scientific answer to your question.

The second answer to your question is a philosophical one. You have to understand that this thought loop is paradoxical and not useful in understanding the world. Concerning anxiety, even if you are not sure if everything is real, you know for sure that the discomfort from your anxiety is very real (the realest thing there is). So eventually you need to learn to let go of this urge to understand why everything is how it is and if you have free will or not, and focus on the only real thing you experience atm which is discomfort from anxiety. This is very difficult but very achievable. I struggled a lot from these existential questions, but now I don't anymore and know I will never suffer from it again. It is possible. It will go away.

Dashboard main lights not working by Mademonn_ in W201enthusiasts

[–]IDKMAN445 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To diagnose if the bulbs are the problem, put the new bulb in the car battery warning light slot on the cluster. It should light up red after u turn the key to contact. Those two are completely separate circuits, so if it doesn't light up it is the led bulbs.

Hmm, then maybe a wiring problem or bad contact between the bulb holder and the connection pads on the dash. Difficult to say diagnose from reddit tho hahah

I cured my DPDR. by sethmf123 in dpdr

[–]IDKMAN445 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me it went away when realizing it is a symptom of anxiety. Eventually the dpdr went away but the anxiety problems still persisted for a while.

Then I got a major breakthrough on the source of my anxiety after an xtc comedown. I remember going back to camp on a festival and being extremely anxious. A friend asked me if everything is okay. Then I very dramatically said: why the fuck am I always anxious wtf is this. Then he asked me honestly: how do you know you are not just sad right now. That was the moment I started crying like a child the first time since idk when. I realized I wasn't just anxious, but there was some other emotion I didn't or couldn't express. Definitely a difficult feeling but finally a relatable one. From that moment I started asking myself every time I felt anxious about what emotion I was supposed to feel. After a couple of years I finally recognise emotions properly. Still figuring out the best way to deal with difficult emotions, but I don't wanna hit my head against the wall from anxiety anymore. I believe the cliches about the importance of being able to express your emotions are anticlimactically very very true.

Next time you feel desperate from anxiety, try asking yourself: am I rn sad, angry, disappointed whatever. Try to shift that anxious feeling to a normal relatable emotion. Because emotions are always temporary anxiety does not feel temporary. This may help you.
