I realize the paragraphs are huge. It might be better if you skip it and read it. I just explained the situation and the process. Have a nice day.

@Judy2 Good suggestion but expensive. I get a weekly allowance of $15 from my family. Even if I agree with a 12th grader for a lesson, he will ask for at least 15 dollars per lesson I tried Khan Academy today. He explains it very well, I will finish the topics for now and solve a lot of questions. If I solve many questions, I will probably reinforce the topic. But still thanks for your suggestion. Have a nice day

@Leo Gura Thank you for the explanation. gif helped. I studied a little more today and I think I'm slowly starting to understand the subject. At least I don't look at the screen like an idiot anymore when I see trigonometry @Epikur I heard that trigonometry is also a part of geometry, but we never had to use it until now, and it was not in our curriculum. I think I opened this post in a bit of a hurry. Yesterday was the first day of school and I wanted this year to be epic in terms of classes. I was a little devastated when I came home and sat down to study mathematics first thing, and then found myself looking at strange terms that I didn't understand. Now I'm slowly starting to understand the issue. I felt like an idiot when I didn't understand it the first day. Everything is fine now, about trigonometry @Joshe Thanks for the link. As far as I can see, the course is free, right? For now, I will look at the trigonometry subject explanations in my native language, but thank you anyway. I have difficulty understanding subjects such as mathematics or physics when I listen to them in English. I always wanted to do this when I was little, but I didn't know how. If I leave the house, I will definitely try it But for now, I'd rather be equipped with theoretical knowledge and solve tests I don't like going out. But I'll try this tomorrow while I'm already out during lunch break at school. Yes, many of them make serious efforts at home, but they also seem to grasp the new topics covered in class very quickly. Maybe you're right, my ego might just be making excuses. There are general reasons why I say "less intelligent". I really don't judge people by calling them stupid. That would be childish. Probably anyone in the world can learn enough mathematics to get into a good university with enough study. While writing this, the idea that I was deceiving myself became more prevalent It's best to keep working. I wish you a good day.

I think the paragraph is a little long sorry about that.

Greetings to everyone. I haven't had any irl friends for the last 3 years. I met someone on reddit 5 months ago. We talked on reddit for 2 months. By the beginning of the 2nd month, she wasn't writing much and seemed to have lost interest. She usually gave short answers and sometimes did not write for 2 days. So I closed my reddit account and stopped talking. I had no contact with anyone again for the next 3 months. I happened to look at her reddit account 3 days ago, and after I closed my account, she also stopped being active on reddit. Her last message was from 3 months ago. I wrote to her again from a new account, thinking that maybe we could chat like before again. Even though she had not been active for 3 months, she responded within 12 hours and we talked a lot. Then after a while our conversation got stuck again. She seemed to be brushing it off and I stopped talking. I feel like I'm empty right now. Maybe it was stupid of me to write to her again. But I thought maybe everything would be the same as before. She was the only person I talked to and I was having fun. I don't know what I should do now. My school is on summer break and I have hardly left the house for 2 months. I don't talk to anyone from school either. It feels very bad not to communicate with anyone. What do you think I should do now? What should my road map be? I feel like I'm in an impossible situation. I'll be in 11th grade next year and I don't want to be an antisocial person sitting in the back row all day.

@gambler I hope that in the future I will not be in the social situation you are in now. Internet friendships are like pornography, you don't want to be 45 and still watch porn, and this is similar. @bambi Your advices are very good, but in Turkey, platforms such as Meetup are only used by religious groups for missionary activities And chess clubs are also insincere organizations that aim for profit. Most general social groups are religious or sect-based. @Sugarcoat I used to have social anxiety, but I don't think I have it now. Now I can talk to people easily. But it seems like all friendships have been established within 2 years at school and people are not very open to making new friends. Still, I will try my luck when school starts this year. But I usually don't get along with people. Things that most people enjoy seem like suffering. @Raze I will watch the videos you linked (seriously). Thank you @Princess Arabia I don't have social anxiety (really). But I still don't like environments with too many people. But I think I can't get along with people. Even the things we laugh at with the people around me are different. Since I don't use social media, I don't understand most of the conversations. But the people around me generally talk about very empty things. @BlueOak Actually, the problem is that there is no group that I can invite or join to something new. There are almost 0 people around me right now. If I don't count my family, there are 0 people. I have hobbies that I do now, but they are all individual things. There is no community of people around me that I can join.

I am 173 cm tall and weigh almost 49 kilos now. 2 weeks ago I weighed 59 kilos and in the last 2 weeks I lost a lot of weight due to lack of appetite. I want to go up to the 65-70kg range. How should I eat? Some days I eat too little, some days I eat too much. How should I organize my meals? My eating habits are complete garbage. Can I gain 20 kilos in 3 months? It means I gain 40% weight I'm open to any advice.

I want them both. Normally I ride a bike, but I can't ride right now because I'm out of town. I started running today, so I don't want to stop exercising until I start cycling again. I want to reach my healthy weight and get a little stronger, I don't have a serious muscle goal.

For now, the situation is not serious enough to take medication. And isn't that medication for allergies?

Thanks bro . It tasted great and made me feel energetic. I didn't add vanilla, it still tasted good. But according to my calculations, this mixture is only 500 calories. 2 bananas are 300 calories and half a cup of oatmeal is 50 calories. Even though 3 large spoons of peanut butter is 75 calories, it's probably not 500 calories in total. Despite everything, it tasted very good and was very easy to make

@Michael569 Is the situation this dire? Sometimes I go on bike rides of 50 km or more and when I come home, I realize that I have lost 3 kilos. I usually regain the mass I lost within 2 days. But these last 2 weeks I had no appetite and I didn't even eat chocolate. This cost me 10 kilos lol. What can the doctor help me with when even my blood tests are normal? I had tests done 3 times this year and they were all normal . @Leo Gura 3 months later: New Post: How can I lose weight? *800 grams of ice cream equals nearly 2000 calories. That's insane.

@Sugarcoat >why do u have low appetite? I guess this is probably because I'm a picky eater. I have been eating mostly pasta for almost 3 years, but for the last 2 years I eat pasta at least 1 meal a day, usually 2 meals. I put meatballs, chicken or any meat on pasta and eat it. I like almost all meat dishes. I am having trouble with having breakfast. I need to eat veggies but they taste disgusting for me . I start feeling nauseous after meals when I try to eat more food. When I had a blood test this year, my values were normal except for B12 and vitamin D. @integral I'm exactly 16 years old now , what do you recommend to me?

I will spend this summer at one of my family member's home without my parents and i need some suggestions. This family member lives in another city that I don't know anything about it. And I don't have any friends in both cities. In this 3 months break I want to improve myself. I'm already doing some stuff to improve myself but this break will be impressive! And I need to meet with people. I don't know how to meet with new people in a city that I don't know anything about it. I can't just sit at home for 3 months. And I spend my last two summer holiday without going outside and speaking with people. I remember that I had a streak that I didn't go outside for 20 days. You can guess the results. I don't want to see that things happen again. And I'm too skinny. I'm 173 cm and 55 kilograms. I need to change my eating habits. Actually my diet is just trash. I'm only eating pasta and some meat everyday, no vegetables and fruits. I don't know how I'm still alive lol. I want to start running too. Its easiest sport that I can do without any equipment. I just want to be healthy and fit. I don't know that should I play games? I'm sleeping for 8 hours and I have 16 hours free day. How can i spend my time? And where can I find some healthy dopamine. Does PMO is a bad dopamine source? Can I watch series? During this time I want to start reading self-help books. I was reading them from my mobile phone but it makes my eyes burning. Buying physical copies is clearly better option for me. And I need to study math. I want to go abroad in future and only way to do this is studying hard I guess. Great college means high salary and a great network. America is my dream and I know that one day I will go there. Its really funny to see that ones dream is 333 million people's reality, lol. My biggest dream is to go to the America one day and every single day 10.000 babies born in America. That's ironic. I'm meditating for 2.5 months and I'm meditating 30 minutes everyday. Should I increase the time to 1 hour or 45 minute? Does time matter to much? I need your suggestions in any topic What should/shouldn't do? I have so much free time and I want to spend it effectively. I'm still in 1X ages and this is my last bullets. If I waste this free times it can cause something that irreversible. How can I plan my day and be effective? This will be the best summer. Have a nice day!

@quantumspiral Thanks Actually, you are right, I mean, it would be a great disappointment if I couldn't go to America one day and it would be sad if I planned my entire future accordingly. Never mind, I'll come to America one day

@Abe27 Yeah I know the "equivalence certificate" stuff. But I don't want to be a doctor or an engineer. I want to be a developer. I guess its the easiest way to go abroad. Yes USA wants highly educated people all around the world but its all about chance. For example there is 15.000 software developer in Turkey. Imagine that 1% of the developers are highly educated. %1 means 150 developers. And only 5% of those people can get a visa for working. Every year only 1000 Turkish citizens can get a American visa. %75 of this visas for touristic purposes. Less than 250 turkish citizens can get a visa for working in America every year. That's why I want to go to an European country firstly. I want to study computer engineering in collage. I heard that companies doesn't asks for collage degree in the European countries. I looked some job advertisements on linkedIn and I saw that even in Turkey companies doesn't asks for collage degree for developer roles. I hope luck will be with me all the time until I go abroad .

@Abe27 Thanks for your interest . There are regions I don't want to go to rather than specific countries I want to go to. For example, I definitely do not plan to go to the Middle East, Asia and Far East countries. My biggest goal is to go to America, but in this process, I may also go to European countries first. I know that it is easier to get a visa for European countries. To get a visa for America, I need to be a European citizen. America does not give visas to citizens of Middle Eastern countries.

@Evan Gill Meditating (1 hour) Studying math (+1 hour) Going out and meeting with new people (2 hours) Eating and preparing my healthy meal (2 hours) Some physical exercises (30 minutes) Reading books (1 hour) I have 16 hours a day to do something. And I can barely plan the half of the day . Having lots of free time is the mother of the all evilness . I still can't make a decision about games. Should I play them after I finish all of my responsibilities or are they compeletely harmfull even I play with consciousness? And I think I should produce something. People who had free time in past always produced some stuff. People were writing books just for fun! Look at Franz Kafka's life this dude wrote all of his books just for himself (except 3 of them) and after his death, one of his friend published all of his books. People were insane in the past . I guess I will start making videos about tech stuff. I will be the 949272893th person who speaks about how to root mobile phones lol.

@Abe27 Actually I'm not studying math for being rich . I'm studying math for collage exams. If I made bad results on collage exams I can't go to a great collage. Bad collage means bad education environment and bad network. I am living in Turkey and every young man must go to military services according to the law. And only way to legally escape from compulsory military duty is going to a collage. During the education time I will be free from compulsory military duty. When I finish the collage I will do my master degree or some stuff to increase my education time. I hope luck will be with me and I will go abroad in this limited time and I will escape from country without completing my compulsory military duty . And thanks for your recommendations
