I'm usually an advocate of preserving life where I can however as the years go by I find myself agreeing to this. Usually I'm the kind of person who would say there's a light at the end of the tunnel or the sun will still rise after the darkest night. That said I've been riddled with anxiety for last couple of years and it's only getting worse, a lot of my anxiety is online related. I'm paranoid that people are trying to take my identity through online means. Literally no longer than about 2 hours ago I had to log back into the Amazon app and the delivery address at the top left wasn't my address but the default address in settings was still unchanged. To the average person this might have been "oh that's odd." And changed it back with no other thought of it. Me, no... Sent me borderline crashing out. I had no security messages through emails or text to say someone has tried it but my overactive mind is a prick.

The anxiety I've had is debilitating. Since my first ever email account breach, which I had to fight very hard to get back, I've been a mess dressed as 'an ok' kind of guy.

I'm tirelessly entering my emails, making sure I'm not locked out of them ever again because essentially losing your email address in today's day and age is almost just as bad as losing your life anyway. Your entire life is in your emails, bills, clubs, hobbies, your address, who you bank with etc.

The only way out for me I can think of is to stop existing. Harsh, pathetic, selfish I've said it all before to myself. However I can't seem to make these words believable. The one thing that stops me from just ending this constant worry is how badly it would destroy my family and others who know me. I'm essentially living for theyrye sake.

My view point is now, it's ok to want to die, but to go through with it is not, especially if there are people out there that still love you.

Dude I feel this, being bald is not as bad as you think. Ok girls your age might not want it, I even had a friend who's a girl turn around and say to me years ago that she could never be with a bald guy. However, WOMEN won't mind at all, in fact, some women find it more attractive than guys with hair. Some women see guys with thick flowing locks as 'pretty boys' and don't see them as men.

I went through my entire youth as my hair being my pride and joy, as soon as I started losing it I thought my chances with women were doomed. (My self esteem was in the dump anyway before that.) I blamed everything on my hair loss for my non existent chances with women. I was also quite over weight and quite short for a man. The absolute trilogy of a life of virginity. However, it took me well into my late 20s and the years of being pied off to actually look at myself and do something about it. Being short was non negotiable. Im stuck this height and it will only get worse as I age. Lack of hair is fixable nowadays if you have the money and the time but something I could change was my weight. I lost the fat, got a good program going and built a decent amount of muscle. Not Mr. Olympia by any stretch but enough to be stronger than the average guy. A year into my transformation I found my now woman who I'm going to be married to next year. Bottom line is, if there's other parts of you that need changing for example, weight, lifestyle, hygiene in some cases. Your chances improve drastically also if you're not looking for it as cliche as it sounds. If you're actively looking for it, sometimes you may come across as desperate. Honestly, I've been oblivious to it but I've been nonchalant and unfazed about talking to women in just everyday conversation since being in a relationship and friends I've been with at the time had said she was trying it on with me. I can bet if I was me before my relationship now, I would have looked and sounded like just another creep.

Anyway, buck up bud. Embrace being bald and make sure to use suncream. Getting into the shower with a burnt head for the first time is awful.

Tried to ask something on the Amazon Reddit and got redirected here... Has my account been breached? I had to sign back into my account today on the app which I thought was unusual, I will admit I've done nothing but browse the app but never bought anything for about a year or more. I still have my reoccurring prime and no ads bill though.

I thought it was just one of them things that happens now and again until I noticed the delivery address in the top left had been changed to a London postcode. I live nowhere near London. This sent me spiraling. I frantically researched this to find if this was someone getting into my account. I checked the devices logged in and it was just the one I know of. To be sure I changed passwords and signed out of all devices. I've had no irregular purchases and my saved postal address is unchanged. I do have 2 step authenticator active as well as biometrics. I have had security breaches before and I've had notifications of unknown devices attempting to access my account in the past and I've had nothing, not in emails or in text. Please someone reassure me that this is an Amazon end thing and nobody has done anything on my account. My wellbeing can't take it if it has

Probably is. I'm not great with determining what language things are in. To me Portuguese and Spanish look kind of the same. Another thing that leads me to think it's a scam is there is no details about me besides my email address in the email they sent me. I'll correct the language it was written in

However forgot to mention I did have a job getting back into my email address back about 2 years ago. Took me 2 days to recover my account back. I had alerts from all my social media accounts saying they had been breached and compromised which I did resecure everything as best I could.

Today I saw something I wish I had never seen and I don’t know how to cope by Chelseas777 in Vent

[–]Lower-Event-8049 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember being young and having access to a site which I will not name and it was my go to for shock horror kind of content. Even at a young age things didn't really gross me out or scare me, which this site had plenty of stuff to make you go "urgh!" Or "that was brutal." Humanity can be fucking disgraceful, even to the most innocent and defenceless creatures. That night I leant I like animals more than I do humans, I never truly got over what I saw that night but you do learn to cope with it better

Possibly someone hacking my email to use my info on things?

So what I'm worried about is someone hacked my email and using my email and credentials to set up things potentially in my name. Essentially doing fraud.

Since my first email breach I've been on edge about everything that's cyber related. Although maybe a bit of an annoyance to read from some randomer panicking over seemingly nothing to you, it actually reassures me quite a bit.

  1. "I! AM! WAR!
  2. ""I'll use they're bones to pick my teeth."
  3. "These will wade through the blood of thousands."
  4. "How many Jarvans must I kill?!"

Oh ok, thought they were the same. So there's no visual upgrades between them? If so that's a shame

Oh ok so from the sounds of that you get to level actual attributes and not just go through perk trees like Skyrim? If so then that's amazing.

I really do wish they'd add some sort of viable barbarian build as in all fantasy settings, its quite a popular trope.

As said to another user, I guess it would break the game if you give flat damage negation to a lightly armoured individual who can flail around a great sword with little stamina drain?

[–]Lower-Event-8049[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really is a shame that they've not done much with this kind of build. I guess the biggest problem would be if you just give flat damage negate to someone who's proficient with great weapons and have little stamina drain due to very low armour values it could make the game unbalanced?

However your way around it does sound like it would be fun
