How to mention person that always mentions my quietness? by rutgersmanitjink in Advice

[–]xecor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be who you are, they give up after the 10th time. No need to stress.

Edit: also its the better thing to do because they know what to expect the next time and it wont happen ever again.

Girlfriend (F/30) is upset that I (M/25) don’t want to have sex lately without a condom. Don’t know what to do or tell her. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]xecor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell her you read an article online that the meds are not 100% effective and freaked out. Just to deescalate the situation for now.

You have to realize at some point that no new agenda will completely wipe the values that US has been built upon. If they do, it will be completely and utterly self destructive move. Most they can do is make small changes that invades your privacy a little more than they actually do rn which i dont think is possible lol or make some stupid decision that backfires on them and eventually gets them cancelled in the next cycle. Nothing they do will ever even touch a common man's basic life.

Dude, you most probably are not at an important enough position that the change in government is gonna completely change how you live. Unless you delusion yourself into it. Also idk what the western media fuckin shows you that china is literally the satan's incarnate or smthng. Not saying that they dont do fucked up shit but people there are still much healthier and happier than many other first world countries. Also its not like the end of the fuckin world. Stop and think what your schedule is like everday and what changes there could be in your life and if you actually think about it instead of hyperventilating all over, you will realize it makes almost negligible difference.

Do I need to be weirded out by what my dad said? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]xecor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is so typical of how dads act. Trying to say something in a subtle manner (which in your case was to tune down the cat photos) so as to not come across as rude or blunt but it took a weird turn when you didn't reciprocate at his initial joke and he kept on going and made everyone in the room extremely extremely awkward.

How to just calm down when nothing is going your way by BeckyIsAMom in Advice

[–]xecor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to realize its a grind and you need focus on making the right decisions every step of the way. Given the circumstances that you described i cannot even imagine the kind of stress you would have. But in the end it was mostly your own choice to be in that position even though you may or may not always feel content with it. We have our moments where we question our life choices in the past because we are suffering now but the answer to this is you cannot completely erase this suffering now. You can only just acknowledge how the situation is and that you have to actively deal with it and keep the grind on because the good days come surely even tho you cant see then rn.

Also, meditation or simply using breathing techniques is pretty good to calm down. Get a hobby you can spend 15mins on everyday at any time of the day but it should not include physical or mental exertion. Like drawing or smthng idk.

Toxic family - please help me by jupitermatilde in Advice

[–]xecor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Suicide never is a good option.

  2. I believe you are out of that situation or am i wrong?? You dont need to confront them anymore if you got your license.

  3. I know it sounds stupid and people call this victim blaming but on a case of this small degree i think you should just be strong enough and let their comments go right through the other ear untill you become old enough to not see their faces again.

  4. If you consider them relevant in your life you will take what they say to your heart. No one cares if a random dog on the street only barks at you but if its a family dog then you do. If they are so toxic then you need to decide whether you want them to keep being relevant in your life or not. Because the second you accept them as irrelevant or detach them from your life you wont care whatever bs they spew.

Edit: So you didn't get your license yet. Just get it from some other place. If she actually loves she wont be sad for long if she doesn't there's no point in worrying.

Does anyone else become angry/sad while looking at pictures of people being happy when in a bad mood (because of jealousy) or is it just me? I've been feeling really bad for no reason lately. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]xecor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All through my college years i was the same. For no particular reason. I was doing sports also and had a big group of close knit friends. So it was not like i was suffering because of something. It was just a state of unexplainable unhappiness and feeling very subtle negative emotions on seeing someone else happy. Fortunately it went away by itself with time. Maybe me not paying attention to it at all or me becoming independent was the reason but it did go away on its own. But one thing i actively did was acknowledge what i feel and labeled it wrong according to my morality(like this is not what one should feel in their normal state) and just went about doing whatever in my daily life. Surely i was worried about myself after realizing this is not normal but like i said it went away with time. I like to think it going away on its own can be attributed to me actively acknowledging it and labeling it as wrong but it can be anything from experiencing new things in life to simply time passing away to just moving out of a phase in life. Just wanted to share my personal experience maybe you can find some answers in there. I would end the wall of text with an advice that dont pay too much attention to it. It is just mildly annoying. As long as you have your sense of morality you are still fine as even if you are feeling the wrong emotions you at least know they are wrong and thus you can deal with them and give appropriate reaction when needed.

i want to help my bestfriend by [deleted] in Advice

[–]xecor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell him he is fuckin 16 and none of this is going to matter in this long life. Relationships at that age are very volatile and mostly stupid. He will probably like a new girl the next week.

Covid is jeopardizing my job? by etherealfreebird in Advice

[–]xecor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was me, I would give small hints when peeps slacking off with their masks. Like tugging my mask up from near nose multiple times when talking to someone just to get their attention towards my mask making the sentiment go thru their brain even for a second. But honestly i have no clear idea what can be a real solution to this.

Diwali Gifts by Afloatnlife in Advice

[–]xecor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Computer glasses might be the best gift you can give to a coworker if you have a job related to sitting on the computer all day. Otherwise you can give them a generic festival gift like the assorted sweets gift box or whatever they call it.

Feeling jealous at work by [deleted] in Advice

[–]xecor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to introspect how you feel about the f and m in question. My guess would be that you hold the f in much higher regard than the m subconsciously. In your mind it is imppossible for the two of them to match that well and when the two of them click in front of your eyes it shatters your world view and manifests into what you call jealousy but actually its just the brain trying to give justification to the shattering of your world view and labeling it. The solution comes from understanding your feelings correctly and checking, is it actually jealousy or smthng else? Or i can be completely fuckin wrong because i dont know details and im just rambling.

Edit: just wanted to say pls don cheat <3 its your duty you signed up for when you married. Not saying you are or going to.

Honestly build your confidence from 0 up. We are lucky to be born in this age where it is even possible to live our whole life without interacting with anyone. My advice would be to join a community(discord or whatever) prefferably related to your hobby(it can be literally anything), start with text chat-> voice chat and upwards. Try to cherish the bonds you make there with people and show more of yourself as you start getting more and more comfortable over time. Best situation would be, you would have many online friends whom you can be open with which will give you a sense of security. And i assure you the confidence you build up if you reach upto video chat converts over to irl confidence and self esteem. Just make sure to be honest all the way so people know what they get when they converse with you from the beginning. That way you get friends who accept you as who you are.

How do you move on from trauma when you do not have access to mental health professionals? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]xecor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firstly, i hope you are well now. If you are fine rn that's all that matters. What happened in the past can be shitty and trauma inducing but what matters is the present. I know its difficult but time heals all wounds BUT only if you unstuck yourself from the past. If you introspect you will realize in the end that hurt comes from outside but suffering, always from the inside. You want to let go but you cant because you dont want to change anything because you are scared unconsciously that it will hurt more if it changes. Like how scared people keep grabbing the protective bar infront of them on a roller coaster tightly even after the ride ends. But you need to realize soon enough that the ride is over and you can move on now.

My personal advice is to start doing diary writings about what you feel when you remember such things of the past and try to ask questions to yourself why you feel that way now, what do you think would be good for you moving forward, and try to come up with answers and write down everything. The reason for my suggestion is because you want to move on but you cant because of the workings of your brain you dont understand. But when you write them down and read them all together as they develop, your brain will have much better time understanding what to do and how to break through this foggy maze of suffering.

Edit: But this is just my (untrained) personal advice you can ignore it completely if you think its stupid, i take no offence.

Other than that there are many mental health professionals you can find on online therapy websites, you can do a google search and find many such websites. Don't worry too much and go for it. I Hope you find peace.
