You're welcome

@Freakyboo you know from that attitude that they will never be capable of loving a woman.

@North Sea that's a lot of corruption.

When you want your OG thoughts to be validated by Miss Aya. Sigh.

@North Sea why is the government so bad? Is it corruption?

I'm raising my hand..

Don't fall into the trap of overworking, and don't do it just because you see others doing it.i completely empathize with your worldview but I don't think drugs are a good way to start a day, maybe take up some yoga practice, you might want to lay off the weed for a while, try to work around to get to sleep without drugs and that could be a game changer.

That looks excessive to me. Something must be really wrong with these people to act out in such ways..

This was so helpful modmyth, thank you for your contribution. Loved reading it. ❤️

The first reason is my journal which I update everyday so I have to come here anyway. While writing something in my journal or contemplating something over it, I tend to flip through the forum as well as a momentary distraction from what I'm doing and that's when I generally click on whichever thread that seems interesting. Some days I'll participate like a lot on the forum, it helps with loneliness or stress, like if I've something heavy on my head, I'll simply come to the forum and that way I forget whatever was bothering me. That helps a lot. Like 2 months ago, I was going through a breakup phase and coming to the forum for a whole week helped a lot to deal with it.. I also find it very meaningful and purposeful to help others. So when I help someone, it's not for egoic reasons, it's the just the feeling that I helped someone feels like there is an interconnectedness between me and the Universe, like I reached out to someone to help them I've made a few friends here, not many, but I do enjoy their company. Some threads are really good and I get to learn a lot whereas others can be very repetitive. Overall a good learning experience. I feel this forum enriches my social knowledge and skills. It's like a virtual environment, I feel like I'm in a classroom with people from different countries. I get to learn about cultural differences, how people think, how I need to talk and respond to them. I had bad communication skills, but the forum kinda improved that a lot.. Yea it also upgraded my social knowledge like people behavior, trends, general opinions. Sometimes I face negativity or see that the forum is too boring or something that I don't like, I tend to take a break and come back after a few days or weeks and only tend to my journal during the time. Often times I felt like leaving the forum when I came across too many argumentative people or personal attacks.. So overall I'd say it's a love hate kinda relationship. I forgot to add social media. I hate social media because it's mostly people acting fake and silly, I never go there, I have deactivated accounts long ago.

@soos_mite_ah what kind of symptoms did you experience?

Thumbs-up

@DocWatts just saw this. Thank you.

Lol. I've heard people saying "I'll cut my nose." You took it to another level.

I remember one time you being very supportive of it.

I sense a disability or a mental disorder and I'm not sure if it would be easily diagnosed. Meanwhile I've a suggestion for the issue. You could use picture associations for whatever you are reading. The moment you are reading a passage, visualize the whole passage and the sequence of events described in the passage in your mind. Make strong associations in these visualizations. Add strong powerful colors. That way you'll be able to remember and recollect much better.

Omg you couldn't sign in to the forum? I couldn't sign in either. I thought these guys did something weird to me. I was thinking I was the only one who couldn't sign in.

Omg I laughed so hard at that.

@Keyhole hey I did the key thing and when I meditated, I saw 2 words on a piece of paper on the table.. The words were, "Divine Understanding." I think that's a big sign

@Michael569 to be very honest, I had Brita for a few months, like maybe 2 months, and it wasn't good at all. Sometimes I felt like it didn't filter at all..

That's so sad.

@tsuki gross. I'm just a nerd.

@Karmadhi the thumbnail image is enough to put me off. You have a woman literally holding a man's leg, like wtf dude? Your values really have to be on another level of cringe for you to even assume this to be normal. Aint clicking on that kinda toxic stuff..

If you can't handle someone having an opinion then you shouldn't have a problem if they can't handle your jokes either.

The cringey part is the sole focus on it. Like for example If I were giving a seminar and If at the end of it, the feedback was on my looks rather than my performance, I'd feel uncomfortable and awkward, kinda objectified. But if someone invited me to dinner and complimented my looks at a party or a dinner, I'd be perfectly okay with it. I mean there is a time and place for everything.
