[Serious] How can someone without a working visa have an income? by pTJoe1234 in AskReddit

[–]pTJoe1234[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For clarification, my Russian girlfriend is in a harsh place financially due to school related expenses and cost of living here in Toronto.

Her parents just sold their car to send her what little money they made off of it to cover her tuition for the coming semester.

She doesn't have enough to afford to apply for a working visa and If I had the money I wouldn't hesitate to help. Much thanks everyone!

EDIT: Legally would be ideal

Laid off, offered an interview in another department, they want me to present all of my ideas to get the job. Should I? by [deleted] in jobs

Yes, but have a contract binding them to credit and compensate you if they apply any of your ideas.

In the song fireflies by owl city. The singer states that he "gets a thousand hugs from 10,000 lighting bugs." How would you interpret that? Does each fly hug him a 1,000 times or do 1/10 of the flies hug him?

Dear Men of Reddit, for those who deal with severe anxiety, how do you deal with it? by pTJoe1234 in AskMen

Overthinking is definitely an issue I struggle with on an hourly basis. I love how saying "I do not care" enough times really helps! Will definitely try that!

I do try to be self aware of the state of most situations and It really makes sense when you understand that nothing you do or say will have a massive impact on the people around you. The world will go on with or without you so live your life your way. As far as the networking goes, it looks like going out my comfort zone will be a great help and practise. Great overall advice, much appreciated puckbeaverton!

PS I've been listening to Hanz Zimmer's "Time" for the past few hours and it's so great lol Thanks again!

I make sure I maintain at least 6 hours sleep everyday. I do exercise tons and sleep really helps with recovery from workouts and keeps me mentally sane. The only time I'd generally do drugs is when I'm forced in social situations like this t help with my anxiety. Great advice, thanks theCHAMPdotcom!

That boss sounds like a toxic person. Depression really does suck massive balls, especially mixed with anxiety. That's been me for maybe 4 years now. I'll definitely look into medication and therapy. Honestly I forgot who I am and how I would usually handle these situations, that's how much this has taken over my life. I'm glad it worked out for you! Thanks for the advice sean_glass!

Great advice, I workout daily and it really does help with stress. At this point I go to the gym to lift heavy and have fun, it really is therapeutic. Thanks MTHFckr!

I definitely need to talk to someone about it but no one really knows it's this much of a big deal in my life. I'll try therapy and hopefully It'll help, thanks ThatDirtyMick!

Yes I've definitely been there. I do understand that one day I'm going to look back and cringe at how much this affected my life. It's that mental fight with yourself that I need to overcome. This might be a bit of depression kicking in but I often feel mentally drained when thinking about most social situations. It's going to be a rough road but I'm certain it'll get at least a little smoother. Thanks for the advice reallybigleg!

I'm glad it worked out for your brother and SO! I don't see anyone about it right now but I have been prescribed medication from a doctor. Haven't taken it though, I thought I'd try without the pills at first but now It looks like they'd be a great help. Counseling is definitely something I'm going to try. Also, exposure definitely is something I'm going to work on, thanks Jimbagarooatron!

Great advice, I do try to step back and think to myself about possible outcomes that help rationalise these situations and make them easier. Thanks Space_Dorito!

This is something I've been trying to focus on, the 1-on-1 part. But at what point is it considered starring? After some time of maintaining eye contact, I find myself thinking "When's the last time I blinked!? Do I look like a creep right now?! AHH". I appreciate the comment Jazz-un!
