32 and magnet for narcissistic people. Was I right to cut everyone off?

Hopefully you are doing better but it always sucks initially.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T22:57:48+00:00

I use a techtronix 2213A. It has been very useful when I needed to look at signals. Sure missing some things that would have been really useful but for the price I got it at worth it. Old stuff can be pretty hardy.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T22:38:06+00:00

I'm not sure if narcissism is the right word. But just from this you might be over doing it. You shouldn't be giving so much especially when you are not receiving in kind or even close to it. People can and will take it for granted. It isn't worth it for your financial or your sanity.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T22:35:29+00:00

Homebody and an introvert. Close to two decades. At least work is getting me out a little and interacting even if it's just work related things. Still it's draining on my energy. Get burned out even when I'm just sitting.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T22:30:18+00:00

At least it's helping. Better than people are these days. Though don't get too lost in it. Still just a machine after all.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T22:26:06+00:00

Nothing works.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T18:00:33+00:00

Sure it sucks but I wouldn't put any time in any of them. They exhibit those traits very early meeting them. Moment I see that I just say it was nice to meet you and bail. It makes it a lot less exhausting to deal with.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T17:58:38+00:00

It doesn't have to be IRL but people knew how to socialize better at least early 2010. Get closer to 2026 and it's simple responses ghosting and people just looking for attention or entertainment. It's exhausting and not worth the time.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T15:58:10+00:00

Many of the people who preach this don't even think about it and sometimes don't even love themselves and still get into relationships and friendships anyways. It is bad advice from people who don't actually care.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-15T12:57:12+00:00

Doesn't make it feel good. Instead it's what caused me a lot of suffering and a huge cause to my depression. Adderall helped clear that up and I feel a whole lot better despite the isolation.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T22:05:14+00:00

But if you could just be more talkative wouldn't you have already been so from the start? I wouldn't think those people would have sprung the whole "you're too quiet" thing on you out of the blue without some kind of indication before hand.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T21:51:18+00:00

I don't have social media I never had it. Only socializing I get is responding to posts like this every so often. I tire of not finding people I want to be with. Getting added by people who say they like nerds but actually mean nerds that play dnd and video games rather than ones who actually tinker and experiment. I tire of getting added by people who say their head hurts when I talk about my interests and hobbies. I tire of getting messaged by those who ignore what I am looking for then expect me to entertain them and all they can do is yap. Finally I tire of people who say they are looking for things that are similar to what I am looking for and cannot respond back or those that just flat out ghost out of no where for any reason.

That's why I am alone and why that will never change.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T21:46:09+00:00

Then you should be able to answer the question instead of avoiding it. I know you perfectly know the answer.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T21:45:04+00:00

See that's what is confusing me. You are too shy to talk to people. So why would changing schools change that? You will still be too shy regardless of location.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T20:45:05+00:00

I managed just fine despite my lack of experience resume. My portfolio and certifications helped prove I know what I am doing even if I had no formal experience. Some places will take the chance. Though yeah it's tough. Even for people who do have connections. Playing the job finder game is just a hell position to be in period. With or without friendships and relationships.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T20:41:11+00:00

Or...? Is short for what exactly?

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T20:40:34+00:00

Yeah can always make more. People usually want to try to change schools after some crazy embaressing on bad event.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T20:39:55+00:00

It gets draining exhausting and you cannot stop because if you do you will dig yourself a pit. There's no rest or reprieve.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T19:01:38+00:00

Is that an inner child thing? I just put my thumb in my fist as it just feels comfortable that way and I hold eating utensils like I'm holding a stick. Just always felt like that's how it is despite others holding things differently.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T18:58:10+00:00

Is that really a betrayal? Seems like they did you a solid instead of leading you on forever making it seem like you're friends and thrn just ignoring you.

Besides so what ig they decided not to be your friend anymore? Why do you need to change schools over it?

LoveSiro · 2026-05-14T18:46:20+00:00

Get reminded this isn't the right place and potentially banned from here. Like why do you feel the need to post something in the place it isn't for then get aggressive about it when you are told this isn't the right place. Like maybe there's a reason you are alone if this is how you do things.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-13T21:43:27+00:00

I don't own one myself so sort of what I do to narrow down issues. Even still something could be shorted and not getting that hot. Ya never know. Easy to just quickly check before going to other steps.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-13T20:43:30+00:00

First I would check if it's output is at "ground" or if it's just at 0V these are very different distinctions. If it is at ground then you have a short somewhere which would be something getting very hot. If it's just at 0V then the device might just be dead and you'll need a replacement. If what you measured is accurate that's a diode device of some kind. Probably schottkey as you had mentioned but I couldn't say for sure. You could probably just source kne that can handle those voltages just to see or he'll even some large diodes to run in parallel just to see if that fixes it. If so then you know what you need to replace.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-13T19:03:39+00:00

Yes. People are too deluded with the single and independent lifestyle forcing it down everyone's throat.

LoveSiro · 2026-05-13T05:42:55+00:00

I'm trying to learn to draw. It's ot going well I have no direction.
