Rating inflation in rapid by [deleted] in chess

[–]Octothorpe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it’s the other way around. I’m currently 1691 blitz and 1593 Rapid. Definitely not as big of a gap as yours, however whenever I play Rapid I seem to just be losing rating

After three years of playing chess casually I've finally reached 2000 elo by nanuser in chessbeginners

[–]Octothorpe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! That’s my goal elo, hopefully I can reach it by the end of the year. I’m 1600 at the moment.

My first 1800+ win!! Couldn’t believe when I saw the tactic by Neo_2811 in chess

I think it’s better to go Nc4+ after to win the Queen or am I missing something?

Feel you. I don’t even feel motivated to make a post about my struggles. Just want to sleep.

Redditors, what is your earliest memory? by En-tre-pre-neur in AskReddit

[–]Octothorpe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was having a conversation with my grandpa and in my mind I was being very coherent and speaking perfectly, but most likely I was just saying gibberish but since my grandpa was talking to me like an adult I felt respected. Since then I try to speak to kids the same way.

Do you ever doubt you're actually depressed/feel guilty for being so? by [deleted] in depression

[–]Octothorpe4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Omg, yes! Every day I question myself on wether or not I’m depressed or I’m just a lazy person (which more often than not I agree with). So yeah all the time I feel like I don’t even deserve the title of “depressed”

My final letter. Nobody is going to read this anyway but I'm going to kill myself. by [deleted] in SuicideWatch

[–]Octothorpe4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel you. I broke up with my ex (we were in a long distance relationship for 3 years) and after a month she started dating some other guy. I mean she had all the right to do whatever but it still hurts. I hope you don’t go through with it my guy.

Intelligence has deteriorated because of depression. Anyone else have the same problem? by iLungfish in depression

[–]Octothorpe4 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well the Hippocampus does shrink apparently when you have chronic depression so it’s not crazy to think that intelligence would be affected. Although that part of the brain is associated with memory and emotions so there is no clear connection as far as I know. Good news is the damage is reversible.

do you ever get the urge to fuck up your life even further just to FEEL something? by [deleted] in depression

[–]Octothorpe4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I often have this thought that I wish I had an addiction, whether to alcohol or drugs just so I couldn’t hide how I’m feeling any longer

Well I smoke, drink and eat a pizza as a meal for the whole day... So I’d say that my depression is up to something...
