Scarcity


Posted Friday May 18 2018, 9:24 pm

Hey , so I'm a 21 years old who just moved out by himself and started living independently ; i used to live with my dad 3 months ago but due to excessive amounts of arguments/fights , i moved out. The issue that I'm having is that i have no friends or someone to hang out with. That's what i need the most ; i focus on work and college(skipped this semester) too much but i need time to relax and enjoy life . How do i go about making new friends ; I live in Queens,NY which is impossible to make friends. I've tried dating apps but realized they were
a waste of time. people tend to be antisocial,rude,so into themselves like i don't understand , especially here in NY. Thank you

Do you think my mom is triggering my anxiety?


Posted Friday May 18 2018, 12:43 pm

I think I have social anxiety and it’s controlling my life I haven’t been to the doctor for it because my mom doesn’t want me to be on medication. Anyways whenever I want to go to social events like parties she’ll say don’t go it’s not safe, so now I don’t like parties and feel anxious when I go to them. whenever I want to go to a concert she says “there’s drugs there, there’s gangs, it’s not safe” and when the whole terrosim things were happening she would say “they bomb public places” so I’ve never been to a concert and then when Ariana grandes concert got bombed it just sealed what she said. If I’m on campus she wants me home as soon as classes are over so I can’t even get involved on campus because club...

Tips for overcoming social anxiety?


Posted Thursday May 17 2018, 3:05 pm

I'm 22, f and for about 10 years I have been struggling with social anxiety.
Every time I'm in a large group of people I sort of freeze and get so nervous that I don't speak.

Even though I know that people like me, I also worry constantly about how I appear and that people don't like me. I worry that people judge me because they can tell I'm socially awkward or quiet.

I know the best way to get over social anxiety is to face the fear and socialize so this weekend that's what I'm doing, but I'm still very nervous about it.

Any tips for how I can calm down?

Why do the tiniest things make me feel so bad?


Posted Wednesday May 16 2018, 9:52 pm

Lets start out by saying that I'm a 16 year ild female, if that helps anything. I know this could just be hormones and such since I'm a teenager, but I can't be too sure. I don't remember when this all started, but i've noticed lately that I'm feeling extremely guilty for small and insignificant things. For example, today I tried to grab a paper in Science. The teacher stopped me and said the older kids go first. Seems simple, but it's 8 hours later and I'm still feeling guilty about this. This is just one example though. It happens almost everyday, and it's starting to make me question my every action to the point where I won't do anything in fear of messing up. Should I talk to someone about this, or should I try to fix it on my own? And advice would be appreciated!

Could It Be?


Posted Monday May 14 2018, 11:44 am

I’ve liked this guy for a while now, but he moved away quite a few months ago. We’ve been maintaining contact through text but I wonder if he sees me as a friend... or something else. It’s difficult because there’s no face-to-face time. But recently I was telling him about how I feel I’m weird and he said he didn’t think I was weird, more that I was a sweetheart and the loveliest person he’s met. He tends to be very nice to those he likes (I mean friends and whatnot, its his way of acting) so I don’t know if that means something more, especially since he didn’t call me a friend. I’m very bad at this and that’s why I want to know for sure, I love the friendship I have with him and wouldn’t want to jeopardize that.

Panhandlers


Posted Saturday May 12 2018, 8:27 pm

14. I've lived in Manhattan all my life and take subways on an almost daily basis. I'm used to beggars, and have always been warned not to give to these people bc they're mostly drug addicts, and I don't.

Today, however, my mind may have been changed. So me and my friends who ride the subway with me like to mock these people under our breaths, making dramatic stories of our own. This woman came on with purple hair, a leather purse, designer clothes, and a face full of makeup claiming she was a single, homeless mom. Her story went on for a while (longer than most) and had a lot of details including naming her kids and telling us about her background, and we were having a field day. We were going "I have five kids and I li...

Toxic Family Life


Posted Friday May 11 2018, 9:41 pm

i'm 27/f. Since I was a small child, I have been caring for my mother. She is unable to regulate her emotions. After her divorce, when I was about 2, she only became worse and worse. Although my grandparents have always been a huge help and I lived with them throughout childhood, they never enabled her to take care of herself. She is about to turn 60 and prior to now, she has never paid her own bills. She never had a savings account. She quit working for about 20 years to stay home, and she maxed out every American Express that my grandparents handed her. She owned a home throughout all this time, which she got in the divorce. She had the home rented and received some income from that rental property throughout the time we were living with ...

Boyfriend drinking


Posted Friday May 11 2018, 1:28 am

Hi everyone, so my boyfriend and I are coming up on being together for a year. He is 27 and I am 22. He really drinks a lot, frequently. He also has a motorcycle which he does ride drunk which is an issue I have been addressing him on. If we’re not together at night, a lot of the time he goes out, either by himself or with some friends. It’s beyong frustrating to me. How do I encourage different behavior? He says he gets a low and than he makes poor decisions and he doesn’t like that he does it, he just can’t help it. What can I do? This really puts a wedge in our relationship, because I always feel like he chooses alcohol over spending time with me. I want to help him, and I don’t know how. I tell him over and over he has a drink...

Torn between quitting a toxic job and having extra money


Posted Friday May 11 2018, 12:31 am

To make a long story short, I found myself working as a waitress at a strip club about two months ago. I love the money I make there as it let me quickly pay off debt I owed that was holding me back from finishing my degree and I can now focus on padding my savings where as at other jobs I barely made enough to get by.

However, you're forced to drink there because customers will often buy shots for you to try and get you drunk and if you say no you don't make any money (I make money for each drink I sell) and the managers frown on it (seen as losing money). Due to this I've already gotten in one mild car accident that I was lucky enough to have not been hurt in and nobody saw it happen so I got away with what could have turn...

Long Distance Situation


Posted Thursday May 10 2018, 8:55 pm

Hey I am a 19 year old female. I have this situation at the moment with this guy who is 27 ( which for me personally has never had an effect on any of this situation just thought I would mention it) . I was visiting home from university during the holidays a couple months back and I met this guy we kind of hit it off. He got my number and we texted, the next night I met up with him and we had sex. ( probably worth mentioning I lost my virginity that night) The next day I went back to university which is 4 hours away from him.

We talk everyday but its very on and off as in the conversations just start and stop randomly. On top of normal conversation things we have been sexting a bit so there is no denying attraction. Sometime...

Should I stay?


Posted Thursday May 10 2018, 2:15 am

I'm a 34 year old woman who's kinda seeing a guy.. He refers to me as his special friend... By the way he's 53 years old... We met about six weeks ago at a grocery store, He called me the same day we met and we pretty much hit it off from there... We talked on the phone for hours we shared a strong connection... He made me happy, after nine years of being single, And just seriously thinking of getting back into the dating world, I thought I hit the jackpot...

Ok so, the first thing he did was lie to me... He initially told me he was 50 years old, and later he told me that he was actually 53 and he didn't want to tell me at first because he thought it would scare me away, I was a little annoyed because I never dated anyone t...

Boyfriend wants to smoke weed, I hate it.


Posted Monday May 7 2018, 11:32 am

Hello, I’m 23/f and my boyfriend is 25. Next month is our three year anniversary so after this whole thing is done, I really would prefer to not see “just break up with him,” that may be what it comes down to but I would like to hear other options and others opinions which is why I’m coming here.

About 10 years ago, I found weed in my dad’s dresser. I know to some people, weed wouldn’t be that big of a deal but I was young and it killed me - the man I look up to, the best man I knew smoked weed. Ever since then, I haven’t been as close to him. I was always daddy’s little girl, I was with him all the time and now I just can’t respect him that much anymore. I’ve seen him lie to my mom about smoking it, I’v...

Bossy co-worker


Posted Monday May 7 2018, 8:47 am

I have a co-worker who is very bossy to me and talks down to me. The issue is that she is my superior and delegates much of my work but the way she does it is becoming extremely controlling and rude. I feel that she is on a power trip and over-stepping her bounds in terms of how to handle me. I feel like I’m becoming this puppy dog following orders and it’s very humiliating and invasive to my personal space. I want to calmly confront her next time she treats me this way but the problem is that we work in the same area as my boss and I feel that it would be awkward to do this in front of my boss. Also my boss has sort of been acting this way too and treating my co-worker this way so I don’t think she would be on my side, so to speak. T...

Do I sound like I might be anorexic?


Posted Saturday May 5 2018, 7:17 pm

I know this seems like an easy question, but I'm starting to wonder if I'm anorexic or just weight conscious. I'm 4ft 10in and 75 pounds. I try to only eat once a day, but I do make sure I eat once a day. If I eat more than once a day I worry that it'll be noticeable and people will see I've gained weight, but this is because where I work the uniform shows your midriff so I don't want to look bloated. Sometimes if I feel a little bloated I'll purposely suck in or make sure I stand up straight so I look skinnier.

If I eat more than once in a day, then the next day I try hard to eat less. Lately, I've been thinking about working out so my tummy is flatter and I can weigh a little less by burning off the calories I eat. I would ...

Thinking of writing him a love letter.


Posted Friday May 4 2018, 6:37 pm

There's this boy in one of my classes that I sorta fancy. We talk occasionally. We aren't that close, but we aren't just aquatinces either. I've had a crush on him for the past year, and now I'm thinking about confessing. I have social anxiety, and I'm scared I'll panic if I tell him in person, so I thought about writing him a letter. I have so many questions about this, like, should I make it sappy to show him how I feel, or should I keep it at a minimum so I don't make him feel guilty if he doesn't like me back? Should I do it on regular lined paper and just fold it in half, or should I make it a bit more pretty by using stationary? Should I put my name, or the the "Secret Admirer" route? I know I have a lot of questions, but I ...
