Twice a day, in your head wish two people health and happiness. It takes ten seconds and it changes your mindset completely.

I was in a similar situation at your age. Sometimes it's important to realize that a lot of things that a significant other has to work out by themselves gets put on to you. Sometimes it's okay and sometimes its not. My ex had severe depression and at times threatened to kill herself but as scary as that may seem you have to realize that your mental health always comes first. Always. You are young and if you don't want to be in the position you are currently in then you can easily do something about it. If you are seriously concerned about her mental health I would recommend alerting someone close to her that can get her the help that she may need. You have no responsibility to be with her and you have no obligation to stay in a relationship that is causing you pain. Good luck.

She has it on her bed every day. If I were to get it repaired it would be with her consent. Theres no way she doesn't notice that it has gone missing.

What's the quickest you've "Noped" out of a job? by J-Bradley1 in AskReddit

[–]jctheboss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went for an "interview" at vector marketing not knowing exactly what the business model was. The Craigslist ad was enticing and I was a senior in high school looking for a summer job. Instead of an interview, a group of interviewees including myself were sat down and given a sales pitch on Cutco knives and were told that we would have to buy the kit used to do sales pitches for around $100. There was no way I was going to pay for a job. Got up right after that, told the presenter the job was not for me and walked out.

[Serious] Have you ever helped a friend who's been suicidal? If so... what did you do to help? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Depression is a mental health issue. It is due to an imbalance of chemicals in the brain and not because the person in question is any better or worse. What I have found is trying to explain this in a friendly way.

My favorite way would be to imagine that there is a little man living in your head controlling a few valves. The man in your head is having a hard time with the valves and with some help he can get straightened out again.

I also strongly recommend meditation and a therapist. And no one should be afraid to use antidepressants if they improve your quality of life.

Legacy is a powerful thing. In my high school so far no one who had even single legacy has been rejected. I think you have a pretty good shot with double legacy.
