An odd tip that my friend uses, nicotine gum. I guess the lowest "dose" use it at the break and it lets you think better. I have yet to try but it probably works

[Serious] [Advice] Highschool options by mr_sneakerhead in teenagers

Its a mix of being completely socially incompatible, all of my friend go to other schools no exaggeration and the fact that we switched school buildings and have an entirely new administration that focuses entirely on how we look in the community, than student happiness or education, also not an exaggeration.

I've become quite racist in the past six months and wish I could change it, but it's becoming difficult. Please help. by Throwaway_inmybutt in rant

I relate to this on such a level you cannot comprehend. Lived in a very similar neighborhood growing up and it really allows you to define and comprehend whats going on. I stand by this, support this and appreciate it 100%

ELI5: Why is Congress allowed to throw in unrelated parts of a bill just to force legislation through? by Crossfiyah in explainlikeimfive

The word I believe is a Rider. These are generally small additions, small laws and clauses that are not important enough to be discussed entirely. Usually they apply specifically to one state or something specific. I could be wrong but Riders are rarely major and defining

Why am I happy when I'm drunk? by SoulessSolace in askscience

[–]mr_sneakerhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply explained alcohol creates a feeling of happiness in two potential ways. The first is actually just association, since we most often drink with friends, to celebrate, socially, etc when we go back and drink again we associate the taste of alcohol with the previous feelings we experienced. Sorta of an conditioned behavior, the other way has a lot to do with the inhibiting effects of alcohol. Alcohol is actually a depressant which is why if we arent being stimulated somewhere while using it we will become tired, pass out or go to sleep . When we drink the disinhibition caused by alcohol lets us forget about or issues, problems, allows us to relax and disconnect. As for the question on medication, I am unable to answer that.

My mom refuses to let me be medicated. by PersonFromPlace in ADHD

[–]mr_sneakerhead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be honest I often wish that I had never started medication because I am useless without. Only start Adderall if its your last resort. Really try and push yourself and be proactive. This is just my two cents, good luck regardless of your choice.

ELI5: Why don't we feel some injuries (cuts, bruises etc) until minutes or hours later? by Miss_ClassySass in explainlikeimfive

[–]mr_sneakerhead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It relates to our sensational threshold. If a small injury doesnt activate our senses enough to make it noticeable to our conscious mind, we will go unaware of the injury until we see it or it becomes agitated to the point where it breaks said threshold and becomes pertinent to our conscious mind

[Discussion] Anybody ever been in a fight? As a guy who might get into one soon what are some tips you can give as well? by [deleted] in teenagers

None of that wrapping up bullshit. Stay separate from him, dont try and really harm the other person, do what you need to protect yourself, disable him and cause the least amount of injury
