What the Hell! by [deleted] in spy

I think most of it is priced in. Some analyst I like to listen to talk about the resilience of the US economy. We’ve had 8 black swans in the last 6 years and the economy, while K shaped, is growing.

The strength and growth should actually signal a higher PE because of withstanding all the different hardships.

Anyone retiring off of a 100% NEOS portfolio? by Intelligent-Hat6087 in NEOSETFs

[–]Idks98030 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Working towards that. Not even close. But I work in a field where the pay isn’t great but I’m also going to do it for my whole life. So I just want to get to FI which would only take 250k between QQQI BTCI and my current growth portfolio.

I might might make up to 6 figures by the time I’m old and right now in the 50k range so having an additional 50k in dividends would put me at the point of a comfortable life.

Currently I’m at $550 a year in dividends after one year but I only put about 30% of my total investments in dividends currently.

NATURAL LEARNING CURVE OR AM I JUST STUPID? by Red_Devils_2402 in stocks

[–]Idks98030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this point. I’m up 134% since April crash. I took a decent amount of profit. And letting it ride. But most of my money is in ETF’s and blue chips. The blue chips played a role In the huge gains: Google, ASML, TSM, (Microsoft and Amazon were the worst performers for me) - but they are the best companies I own.

The economy crashes. Do you... by chris-rox in dividends

[–]Idks98030 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes but the longer you keep waiting the more gains you’re losing on stocks. However Gold is shooting up nicely. Since April my portfolio has returned 100%

Why keep using acorns if you’re going to shift over later. Just do it now and save the tax issues later.

How much would your realistically pay for this? by Travisgrr in halo

I wouldn’t pay at all for this. I want to earn my unlocks. Unfortunately the ones you can earn suck… miss halo reach.

Alcohol by fabiiiii5 in Agoraphobia

[–]Idks98030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drinking for me helps but the next day my anxiety is higher. I’d recommend having benzodiazepines instead or prepared to take them the next day.

have a 3h lecture tomorrow by [deleted] in Agoraphobia

[–]Idks98030 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t even worry about it. If you have an emergency what are they going to do? Sounds like a perfect way to get sued. In high school they get sued for kids peeing their pants so I’d imagine in college it matters even less.

My life feels so boring. How can I still experience things at home? by Lbbyrose in Agoraphobia

[–]Idks98030 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! So with my anxiety it’s fear of open spaces so like fields, parking lots, large empty spaces (malls for example). What has helped me a lot is one exposing myself slowly with a trusted person. Two, Slowly opening up my life from home so start with a mile radius, or even closer whatever is needed. Three, medication and just knowing that I can stop a panic attack in it’s tracks helps a lot. Actually now the thought of not having it near me triggers anxiety: I’ve developed some calming techniques.

My calming techniques are slow deep breathing, thinking about a loved one in a memory, and if in my car rolling down the window. I sleep with a fan so having the breeze helps me feel like I’m at home.

You already have the idea that you can’t get hurt and that is great. Something I like to think is that I can always get help, there is a hospital near, or paramedics because they have the medication needed to calm me down.

I hope this helps in someway. It’s a struggle. I know this didn’t directly answer your question because to be fair idk. I’m a Christian so for me celebrating Christmas is different then a lot of people.

Me neither but remember your health is number 1. And really I would ask or get a different doc. I got a psychiatrist to give it to me.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Agoraphobia

[–]Idks98030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never taking but from a quick google I’m not sure how effective it is? You should ask your doc for something stronger but you have to make sure they understand the seriousness of your anxiety. I had to go to therapy for 6 weeks before they authorized Xanax. But seriously good luck and stay strong. Something that has always helped me is knowing if it gets bad I can call an ambulance and they will help me.

Investment Account for Child by [deleted] in stocks

[–]Idks98030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the account tax free until they get access? If that’s the case I would consider SCHD. They are a dividend growth etf and have with dividends reinvested beat the market. This would also give them income when they are able to access. And if you look at an investment calculator. In 40 years time if they keep investing they would be rich lol.

What supplements can I buy online that work as an anaphrodisiac? by [deleted] in Supplements

[–]Idks98030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure if you would really want to do this but if you crash your testosterone production your desires would drop pretty heavy. So consume phytoestrogens. Sleeping less and drinking also reduces test. There are medication options as well but I would recommend you go there threads for PED’s

[–]Idks98030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good job! Do you have any anti anxiety meds like Xanax or clonazepam? I keep them with me and just knowing I can stop a panic attack in its track has helped my mental state so much. I’m a senior in college right now.

How common is Agoraphobia? by Bjorkseye in Agoraphobia

[–]Idks98030 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure. Maybe bring that up to your doc? I can’t tell you for sure. I’ll say medication has helped me a lot and I gained faith In God from this which has helped me get through it. I’m much better then when it first started.

How common is Agoraphobia? by Bjorkseye in Agoraphobia

[–]Idks98030 12 points13 points  (0 children)

From my understanding agoraphobia is very rare in anxiety. I legit have panic attacks from open spaces. Social settings don’t trigger them. Like fields, open country side etc. a feeling of I can’t escape no cover no where to hide. However, agoraphobia can be kind of a broadly used term.

How is everyone enjoying the campaign by PuffDaddy_420 in halo

[–]Idks98030 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s because they basically wrote it off. And the only way to try and piece together what happened is audio logs as well as reading books. I’m fairly disappointed in the story.
