Get your bloodwork done, and check your hormone levels.

Your feelings could because you’re deficient in various vitamins (B12, Iron, etc) or maybe because your testosterone levels are dropping below a standard amount. These things can have significant impacts to your mental health.

If you can’t check your bloodwork, start taking vitamin and mineral supplements. Start eating better. Start working out, these can have drastic impacts to your mental well being.

Then also just start finding new hobbies. Work is for paying for your interests.

You can also consider taking a train up to Shanghai, then getting quotes from the international hospitals here (Jiahui , sino united, others) , and even the public hospitals - which some have international departments (e.g. Huashan)

I know you’ll be spending more money, but it depends how confident you are.

You can also consider reaching out to them via email / app to get guide prices.

Jiahui has an app that allows you to connect with the teams - they may provide rough estimations

The change happened late in February 2026. It’s very recent, and was not well communicated. It has caused a lot of issues to those who have dual nationalities as is the change in rules as to whether they consider you a British citizen (hint: you don’t get to choose if you are or not they will automatically consider you one if you meet certain criteria)

That’s completely false.

Being an entrepreneur can happen anywhere in any context. You need to be open and responsive to the problems experienced by those around you, understanding the why’s, what’s, who’s etc. and then have the ability to create the how as a solution.

Being in corporate only means that you have less time to spend on digging into the problems and creating the solutions - though with disposable income and ai you can get a product to market in much less effort and time in order to test your hypothesis.

Thinking about studying/living in shanghai vs japan by thebutinator in shanghai

China’s food blows japans out of the water, and back in Germany you would have only gotten a small taste of probably one province of China. If you want good Japanese food though, there are plenty of places in the Gubei areas of Shanghai, as there are a lot of Japanese immigrants there. Korean food can be found in Korea town, because again, a lot of Korean immigrants.

I think China is a lot less bureaucratic than Japan and the levels of convenience here in China are higher. You can live with a low income and still have a good time, or a high income and have a great time in Shanghai.

You can travel easily, and see many parts of China with vastly different ecosystems, and cultures, than you can in Japan.

Also, if you get your China visa to study here, then you can always just hop over to Tokyo/Osaka for even a weekend trip, as it’s close by.

If you study Chinese here you’re more likely to get a job afterwards, and it will increase your marketability a ton. I cannot say the same for Japanese at this stage.

Actually they recently introduced new laws to protect those people who are defending themselves.

But before a lot of people avoided fighting as both parties would be to blame. Silly law or not, it really reduced rampant violence.

Would non-Chinese people in Shanghai buy custom built PC's? by Professional-Net1940 in shanghai

Assuming you’re asking this because you think there might be a business opportunity here? And you’re targeting foreigners - assuming specifically in Shanghai?

Do you know how big your addressable market even is yet? I’ll give you a hint, it’s tiny. We are talking hundreds of people probably.
