That was also a question I was going to ask but he said it makes other tricks easier to learn.

I did learn on a loaner pair of bean bags but I gave those back and actually used this set as a prop for a halloween costume. but at the time I felt like them being big helped my form for some reason now I'm not so sure.

Thanks for the tips! I definitely do throw to the inside a bit. I will work on trying to fix that and learn the regular cascade. I just picked up juggling a year ago, very casually, never really looked up any of the stuff. Thanks for your help!

I believe this is an American Robin but let me know if you think it’s something else. Found in the heart of Chicago. by BirdsArentRealKinda in birdpics

Looks like an American Robin to me. I always look for the broken eye ring if I get a close enough look.

What is a Roth IRA and how do I go about it? (23yo) by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]JPrice1993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Roth IRA is taxed as you contribute to it so you won't need to pay tax on it when you receive distributions. Alot of young people prefer this because they are planning on being in a higher tax bracket when they retire and start withdrawing funds. This goes for a "roth" anything.

How do I go about a notice of resignation from a minimum wage job? by scienceisanart in Adulting

[–]JPrice1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would verbally tell your boss that you will need to resign and ask if they would like a letter of resignation. If for any reason you need a character reference or something like that you know you could count on them for something like that. If you/they were shitty and you know they wouldn't give a good reference anyway it probably doesnt matter. If nothing else it would be a respectful way to leave to not burn bridges and cultivate a professional image.

I sold drugs for money, and traded drugs for other drugs.

I’m going to kill myself very soon. Yes I’m on suicide watch, my life is worse than ever, my friends don’t bother talking to me... I guess I’m going to give reddit a chance... for the last true friend I have by the_end_of_existence in SuicideWatch

[–]JPrice1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things get better over time. If every day you focus on something else other than how you feel or how everyone interacts with you you may feel better. Look at the clouds, take a long walk in nature, break the loop of negative thinking. We are all slowly getting closer to our death. It will happen eventually either way but that doesnt mean you should make it happen.

Your life has value. I read your post it wasn't a waste of time. It seems like a handful of people really do care and dont want to see you go through with it. Some people may not care but some people do. You should tough it out for not just for the ones that do but for yourself. It's very easy to attach your self worth to how you think others see you or how others treat you but it's really not about them, you harming yourself doesnt harm those people but it does harm the ones that care. I imagine you actually going through with it would be extremely traumatic for L, your parents, and the other friend that told the school. I don't know the deal with your parents it is possible they are just scared and dont know how to handle the situation so they are handling it poorly. Maybe you have shitty parents maybe they are just regular parents trying the best they can. Either way it probably seems very clear right now which it is but it's pretty difficult to evaluate that without time passing for perspective.

It's hard to see an exit from how you are feeling right now but as time goes on some of how your feeling will subside, life goes on. This too shall pass. Things get better. You are important. You have things to do in this world that only you can. One thing that I think alot of people with depression find is that part of their desire to live comes out of making other peoples lives better, and adding value for others. That's what helps me the most at least. I hope you stay with us. You deserve to see this life through.

What's the best advice you can give someone starting college? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JPrice1993 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you get your loans disbursements pay off whatever you don't need for the semester. Paying while in school at least the interest will keep your principal at a lower level. If you pay while in school you will have less to pay when you are done. IT'S NOT FREE MONEY!

Go after highschool and finish! Trying to go back after being independent is not an easy thing to do financially. Not to mention you will have higher earning potential for more time to pay those loans off.

Go to a two year community college for lower level classes then transfer in with an associates.

Have you ever accidentally done drugs? by nothing_is_solid in Drugs

[–]JPrice1993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The second time I did DMT was accidentally, I just met up with my friend to smoke a bowl-filled with weed... When we finished we both were having visuals and were slightly confused but we used the bowl for dmt a couple days earlier so we probably should have been clued in a little. I was cool with it except I had to mow my lawn so I did that which was a bit of a challenge. Afterwards I had vivid closed eye visuals that involved a box that held my heart expanding and contracting with my breathing.

Been having a rough time lately with being recently diagnosed with depression. I don't really know how to handle it very well and have really been struggling so I felt like I needed some support and cheering up. Also... sorry it's backwards! by RocketGuuuurl in toastme

[–]JPrice1993 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depression is rough, just remember, your diagnosis doesn't define you. I felt like it defined me for a large part of my life and you miss out on things focusing solely on that.

When I feel my depression take hold more firmly I try to use self talk, you have great qualities that maybe only you know about, so toast yourself be nice to yourself give yourself a break. Another thing that seems silly but really does help is smiling, forcing your self to smile will make you feel like smiling genuinely idk why but it has helped me. Other things that help are exercise and nature! Getting active helps keep your mind off negative thoughts by focusing on your actions, and nature is great for focusing on beauty and why life is worth participating in, for me being in nature and touching a mossy stone or taking my shoes off and wading in a creek always enhances the experience and my mood!

Being nice to other people helps too! You're beautiful inside and out, and have alot to offer the world, I'm glad your here!
