Invest most of it in a stable asset. Then work out how to live off it sustainably

I'd read atomic habits, and implement that style of thought. If you still don't get results, do depth psychotherapy and check for neurodivergence.

@spiritual memes I mostly agree, yes

@spiritual memes Sounds like a testament to your character

@Fuku Brother how are things now?

@spiritual memes Dude this all sounds like superb progress! Inspiring!

I wouldn't do it. But fair play to her for taking initiative, and doing something courageous and proactive.

@Julian gabriel I think its because people are dissociating themselves from ordinary experience

@Norbert Somogyi If you have disorganised attachment style, to my mind, relationships are going to be tricky for you atm. It involves both seeking attachment, and being afraid of attachment. So, you will yo-yo in terms of wanting to be close and wanting to be distant from people you are in relationship too. And, imo, will attract in people more naturally who aren't the healthiest. I'd advice getting into some deep psychotherapeutic work so that you can change your attachment style towards a secure attachment. Its not your fault that you are this way, or something worthy of blame. However, it won't change unless you take the relevant steps.

Comes across as rather ungrounded to me. Seems like the dude is pretty triggered in these sorts of posts. I'm not a fan of this manner of communication. Where's the tier 2ness in it?

@LSD-Rumi ?

Derrida. The father of postmodernism :).

@Holymoly Ye I pretty much totally agree with Mate's points here. I personally think its because JP has PTSD which often causes a lot of rage issues.

Sure. In the same way you can choose to sing in the rain, you can choose whatever set of morals to follow that you want.

Why does Sarah Palin have, among those closer to the left, an especially negative reputation ?

I can offer partial advice. I'd recommend you communicate about this in a way where you both make sure you both genuinely understand each other's reasons, and also that you both feel heard. I think that will help keep the relationship healthy whatever the decision. Re the actual decision, I won't give advice.

@thepixelmonk No way! That's awesome!

IFS therapy my guy. David Snyder's NLP stuff I've heard good things about too. PSTEC too.

Great stuff dude. Sounds like you've really taken some positive steps. Kudos!

@Nilsi I suppose you advocate for just loads of fission reactors. However, I don't think it would be sensible to have them over fusion one's. Fusion one's are expected to produce 3-4 times the amount of energy. Also, nuclear fusion reactors, unlike fission ones, don't create any toxic waste product.

I've regularly heard the phrase used by folks who are seemingly reassuring themselves or others about their own getting older. I don't think OP meant it in the way you interpreted.

Here's what I'd say: Focus on your fundamentals first. 1. Get a source of income at a healthy workplace (i.e. non-toxic) 2. Exercise 3. Diet 4. Meditation 5. Journaling --------------------------------------------------------------- You can input one at a time. If you're finding you keep starting, stopping, starting, stopping, then I'd get into a depth psychotherapy asap. Although even if the above suggestions work well for you, I'd input depth psychotherapy as a 6th step. For example, IFS therapy. (Sidenote: I'd look into potential neurodivergence too, i.e. ADHD, dyslexia. That can go surprisingly unnoticed and cause a lot of issues.) Also, I'd learn how to develop habits from the book, 'atomic habits'. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Also, I'd recommend having some inspiration for the journey, i.e. music you find inspiring, movies you find relatable and inspiring. And watch those from time to time. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally, it may be wise to consider what relationships are healthy to have in your life, and to what level. I.e. maybe you cut down how much you do certain things with certain types of people, or you move on all together There's a few different things I've put here that came to mind. I understand if it seems overwhelming but you don't have to do it all at once, (if you choose to follow what I recommend at all :) ). Anyhow, I think you've taken a great step with this comment and I hope things improve for you.

I'd use it as a time to practice getting really effective at studying things in a way that invigorates you. Perhaps even things you don't enjoy at first. Might as well make the best of your unwanted situation, imo. There's a book called 'What smart students know'' by Adam Robinson that I think could be of value, if my recommendation resonates with you. Tho, I don't think that book will really help with math subjects. So can only wish you luck on that one :).
