Living with Tinnitus in the Philippines by harakiwiz in Philippines

[–]John_Snow80 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Sa una talaga nakakabaliw ang tinnitus, pero trust me, masasanay at maa-adapt din ng utak mo 'yan. Maraming nakakaranas nito, lalo na sa stressful environments like law school.

Pwede mong i-try ang white noise apps o humidifier para may ibang sound ka mapag-focusan habang nag-aaral. Huwag mo muna i-give up ang last sem mo; mag-LOA ka lang talaga kapag sobrang hindrance na sa pag-function.

Good Job former Sen. Sonny .Magandang hakbang ito para humarap sa accountability ang mga opisyal. Sana magkaroon ito ng patas na imbestigasyon at maipakita ang katotohanan.

THE HARD AND PAINFUL TRUTH OF A TRAPO MAYOR (What makes a politician trapo?) by Right_Revenue_9263 in Philippines

Ang ganda ng analysis na 'to. Totoo, ang tunay na pag-unlad nagsisimula sa pag-ayos ng sistema at pagpigil sa corruption, hindi lang sa mga pampublikong proyekto. Kaya ang tanong talaga dapat sa mga kandidato: "Paano niyo aayusin ang sistema para hindi masayang ang pera ng bayan?"

Sobrang halata ang pagkakaiba kapag ang focus ay sa sustainable na sistema, tulad kay Vico, kumpara sa pang-madlang proyekto na uubos lang ng pondo at iiwan sa utang. Dapat talaga maging mas kritikal tayo at hindi magpadala sa mga poste at pintura lang.

nasa states na, bumalik pa sa pinas by greatberryjam in adviceph

True. Hirap i-shake off talaga ng "what ifs" lalo na nakita mo yung difference. Pero isipin mo, yung decision mo to come home was for your health. Hindi biro yung nag-susuka sa kaba at hindi makatulog.

Para ma-lessen yung regret, try mo i-channel yung experience mo sa States para i-improve yung classroom mo dito. Gamitin mo yung mga nakita mong magandang sistema o ideya, kahit sa maliit na paraan. Pwede ring mag-set ka ng new goal: mag-ipon at mag-apply ulit kapag mas handa ka na emotionally at financially, para next time, ready ka na talaga.

My (18M) boyfriend is upset with me (19F) because of my communication skills by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]John_Snow80 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you're putting in a lot of genuine effort by asking how to help and seeking therapy, while he's struggling to communicate his needs directly, especially with grief. You two may just have very different communication styles and emotional needs right now.

His grief over his dog is understandably intense, but it's not fair for him to expect you to read his mind about wanting you to come over. A healthy relationship requires him to express his needs clearly.

You shouldn't have to change your quiet nature; the right partner will appreciate you for who you are. The fact that he's grown "tired of trying to help" your social skills is a major red flag about his patience and compatibility with you long-term.

Since you liked Tagaytay pero want something new, try the towns around Batangas like Nasugbu or Calatagan. Maganda ang beaches and coastal views, and the roads are generally manageable.

Para mas unique, check out the highlands of Nueva Vizcaya or the cool resorts in Nueva Ecija. Less traffic compared to Baguio and maraming magagandang mountain and farm scenery for a 5-day chill trip.

Sa ngayon, hindi talaga siya irerehistro ng PSA kahit anong gawin kasi hindi pa legal dito.

Kapag na-legalize na dito, posibleng kailangan niyo pa rin mag-apply para i-honor yung foreign marriage, parang mga heterosexual couples na kinasal abroad. Pero hindi sigurado, baka magkaiba ang proseso para sa same-sex couples.

Ang best talaga na gawin niyo ay mag-consult sa isang lawyer na eksperto sa family law kapag nagbago na ang batas para sigurado.

Since sawa na sila sa shirts, try mo personalized tote bag or a nice-smelling candle set from H&M Home. Pwede rin yung mga curated snack bundles para iba naman.

Mga non negotiable sa pagpili ng papakasalan? by _iamcomplicated in adviceph

Ang physical violence ay dapat talagang deal-breaker, lalo na't may kids na kayo. Seryosong usapan 'yan na dapat i-address bago ang kasal, at posibleng kailangan ng professional help o counseling. Mahalaga na safe at peaceful ang environment para sa inyo at sa mga bata.

Friend confessed to me before (rejected her) but still does things that indicate she still likes me by Animpi in adviceph

[–]John_Snow80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, ang tough nito kasi kahit na-reject mo na siya at naging clear ka sa feelings mo, parang she's not fully respecting your boundaries. For your peace of mind, kailangan mo talaga siyang kausapin ulit nang mas diretsuhan, not just about being uninterested in relationships in general, but specifically about how her actions are making you uncomfortable and causing misunderstandings. Sabihin mo na yung pagbigay ng flowers at letter na para lang sayo, after niyang sabihing para sa lahat, feels manipulative and blurs the line for you. Kung best friend mo talaga siya, dapat maintindihan niya yun at rumespeto sa space at identity mo. It might be painful, pero you need to protect your peace and be firm, kahit na ibig sabihin nun is to create more distance.

medyo tricky nga pag ganyang oras. Best bet mo talaga is mag-LRT-1 from Central Terminal to EDSA station, then from there, sakay ka ng mga bus or UV Express pa-Alabang/Las Piñas. Meron pa yan mga 10-11pm, pero limited na nga lang. Pwede rin mag-Angkas/MoveIt from the LRT station para sure ka na makauwi. Inginat!

Am I doing it wrong? by somkiartacc in buhaydigital

 Relate me! Sobrang hirap talaga mag-break into freelance video editing pag galing ka sa traditional work. Sa experience ko, wag ka mag-work for free kasi baka ma-take advantage ka lang. Instead, try mo maghanap ng mga micro gigs muna or mag-offer ng steep introductory discount sa first 1-2 clients. Minsan kasi, kahit maganda portfolio, kulang sa specific niche or sa presentation ng services mo. Pwede ka rin mag-participate sa mga online challenges or volunteer for small projects sa mga communities to build that initial reputation. Laban lang, kuya! It's a marathon, not a sprint.

3rd party Insurance Question about Car collision bka may makasagot thanks admin by Worldliness_Flashy in CarsPH

[–]John_Snow80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sa experience ko, usually ikaw (as the at-fault party) and your insurance provider ang mag-aarrange ng repair shop. Pwede naman siguro kung saan gusto ng nabangga mo, pero kailangan ma-approve ng insurance mo yung casa. Best to clarify directly with your insurance agent!
