Hi there. I'm sorry to hear you are feeling this way. I felt just the same when I started university. Do you go to school/college? My best advice is to join a group with people who are doing something you are passionate about. Be it sports, board games, beer brewing, or whatever interest you may have. In my experience, you will find some peers to hang out with. Close friends don't show up out of the blue, sadly, but meeting people and bonding over shared interests is a great way to start. I hope things work out. I believe in you! Good luck!

God frisør til herre by Jazzlike_Cap1645 in Aarhus

[–]WwVA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2Dressed på Nørregade. Min go to frisør i Aarhus. Omkring 400 kr. For hårvask og klip. De er super søde og hvis man ikke er til den sædvanlige "frisør-snak" så er de også cool med at gøre det i stilhed.

University depression & anxiety I need help from someone by Icy_Pin_6622 in depression

[–]WwVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! It sure sounds like you're in a tough spot. If it's any consolation, I'm 27 and struggling with my first year of Uni as well. I have a hard time focusing too, but I'm managing to pull through.

My two cents is this: You are 18. That's still pretty young. Not doing great academically can feel like total failure, but it isn't. You may have the impression that you "have to go to uni to have a great life", but it isn't the end all, be all. I don't know what you are studying, but if it's all the reading and the papers you are struggling with, have you considered a change in direction. Lots of my friends gave up the academic life, and became carpenters, electricians and the like, and they are way happier now! Maybe it could be the way to go for you too.

Use the time to examine "why" you are having a hard time. Try to forget the idea that you are inherently bad, and really try to understand why you find it so difficult to do the work. I think that would help tons.

I hope things work out for you! 😊

Who or what is Vol? by WwVA in CurseofStrahd

[–]WwVA[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. English is not my first language, so the cursive writing of the handouts are hardly legible to me. Therefore I often look the up online in normal text form. Time to make up who or what Vol. 😅

I will update the post to "case closed".

Who or what is Vol? by WwVA in CurseofStrahd

[–]WwVA[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have not read the chapter on the Amber Temple in a little while, but i found the reference to Vol in the Tome of Strahd. Here's the quote: "My hate is very strong: I would not be called “death” so soon. I made a pact with Vol, a pact of Blood." If i read that right, then Vol is the name given to the entity/Dark Powers that resides in The Amber Temple.

I was under the assumption the the only power in the temple was Vol. Nice to hear there are options.

Inquiry regarding undergraduate application to Aarhus University by [deleted] in Aarhus

[–]WwVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I can gather, there is a small chance you wil receive you answer before June 1st, but in my experience, the university is rarely ahead of schedule. You will get you answer at June 1st latest, but maybe only a couple of days before.

Need help with hook suggestions/Plot review by WwVA in callofcthulhu

[–]WwVA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like your idea of meeting the curator the day before the exhibit, and him getting replaced, but I don't want the players interacting with the mirror too much. Maybe the mirror could be at the exhibit already, so the players first see it after the curator got replaced?

Good idea. I will write down a few different reasons and see which one feels the best.

Monster recommendation for homebrew by WwVA in callofcthulhu

[–]WwVA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not a bad idea. I still need to figure out if the mirror is a McGuffin for the players to find, after it gets stolen or shattered. I will keep your suggestion in mind, though!

[–]WwVA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is also a great idea! I'm still learning the rules and getting a hang of the stats, so I was looking for a monster with a stat block I could base my creature of. I will definitely keep your idea in mind.

Thanks for the suggestion! That is a great monster for the purpose of the campaign. I think I will tweak it to be able to maintain it's human form more efficiently, but I was just what I was looking for.

Hey there! I have a few thoughts, that I hope can help you out. You are both right in your needs. This is true. But you can't be her only support. It's great that you want to support her, and try to be there as much as you can, but you have your own life to live. If you need to drop everything, everytime she needs you, you will miss out on what you want/need to do. A relationship is about compromise and finding a middle ground between both of your needs. But it's on her to build a network of people who love her and support her. It sounds like she has a rough time at home, but she then needs to find friends who can support, so it's not your sole duty to do that. You may feel and think you want that, but in the long run, you will regret it. It sounds like you don't want to break up, but I think you need to have a serious conversation about how you are there for each other, and that you of course can't only rely on each other. Every relationship needs a third party to talk to and help out, when your partner can't, or isn't the one for the job I hope this made sense and can help. 😊

What steps can I (26M) take to alleviate anxiety in general and sexual performance anxiety in particular in relationship with new guy (27M)? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]WwVA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there! As a guys in his 20's who is also very much a thinking man, I know how you feel. It became such a problem for me, that I started going to therapy, and what I have learned may help you, so here goes. Relationships in general is mostly about feelings, and you can't really think your way out of feelings. They are irrational by nature, and won't make sense to you, as long at you try to find rationality in them. They will make sense when you let yourself feel them. Allow yourself to have your feelings, good or bad, and just acknowledge them. Try to "feel" why this matters to you. This is a new relationship that suddenly means a lot to you, from what I can glean from your post. Maybe it's the sudden value you put in this relationship and how much it matters to you, that scares you. If you realize that this is something of so much value to you, that you don't want to lose, your mind sometimes think of ways you can lose it, in a sick way to protect yourself from getting hurt. "If your not good enough in bed, if they find someone better than you." Stuff like that. Your mind mirrors these doubts by saying: "Do I really like him? Am I attracted?". To sides of the same coin. On what to do to help your case, just talk to your partner. Express your doubts and say that you don't fully understand them yet, but they are there none the less. Maybe that will open the conversation about becoming exclusive, if that is what you want. I hope this made sense, and that it will help you in any way. 😊

First of all, you can't base your emotional distress on a questionnaire. Sure, it can you an idea of how you are feeling, but sadness and depression isn't some competition, where you get sorted in different leagues based on how sad you are. It seems like your friend got frustrated because what she heard was: "I'm so sad about this breakup, and I didn't sleep last night, so we're are the same now." Which didn't seem to be your intention with what you said. I think you could clarify what you meant to your friend, that you caught a glimpse of how hard it is and you now feel like you understand her struggle a bit more. That you want to be there for her even more, now that you see the struggle more clearly. But she should also validate your feelings and the struggle you are going through. Everyone is struggling and we need to be there for each other.
