  • Am I being weird/unfair here or is this reasonable?

    So, I go through a lot of difficult things in my life, and my way of dealing with it all is to just vent to friends willing to listen. So I do this, and thankfully there are many friends willing to listen and support me, and let me make it clear: I'm VERY grateful to them for their listening and support.

    I have some friends however, who don't seem as willing to listen/ talk to me about these more serious topics. And these are friends who I really enjoy talking to, so even though I get a lot of good support from my other friends, I still wish that these friends who don't really talk to me about this serious stuff would.

    Am I just a horrible attention seeker? Or is this understandable?

    Thank you!!

  • I've hid my feelings for my whole life basically.?

    As the title says, I've hid, basically all of the painful things I've experienced, and how they made me feel. I never talked about them for the most part with anybody cause no one made me feel comfortable talking to them about that stuff, and I felt like I could just kind of leave it all in the pas tand live in the present.

    In the last few years, I've finally realized the impact my past has had on me and have slowly but surely opened up in my willingness to talk about this stuff, but as I have, I've realized that most people don't want to talk about this stuff in turn with me. I didn't go through anything CRAAZY insane, but I experienced many difficult things and my life in general was usually a struggle. I'm not saying it's the worst by any means though.

    My question is, how do I deal with all of these feelings I now want to talk about but can't find anyone willing to listen? I'm not sure therapy will help me since I already know how this all effects me and I'll know the therapist is only listening to me cause it's their job and they're just there to do their job.

    What can I do? Thank you!

  • What strategy has worked for you in finding work?

    Right now I have two IT certifications (CompTIA A+ and Network +) and I am working a job with pretty bad hours (4PM to 10PM every day except Tuesday and Wednesday). So I am looking for a new job. The question is, well how? As you can see I don't have all the time in the world to apply for jobs online and I don't have a big network. Is spending the time to grow my network the best strategy? Is having a Recruiter help me viable? What has worked for you?

    Thank you!

  • Did I mess up while signing up for Health insurance?

    I'm no longer covered by my family's insurance since I do not go to school anymore. I live with my mom.

    My mom makes 80,000 a year but with all the bills she has to pay as basically a single mother, she would not be able to help me pay for medical insurance. I'm more than happy to pay for my own insurance.

    I plan on filing my taxes as an independent for this coming year and my coverage enrollment for health insurance assumes my household income is just what I make per year. Is this OK to keep like this despite my mom making what she does? Or should I go back and add what my mom makes?

    Thank you kindly.

  • Would this be too much to put into one story?

    i want to write a story but I'm wondering if this is too much/ too busy for one novel. It's not supposed to have multiple novels for it,.

    It's about a teen girl who has died and went to Heaven and was told her little sister would join her soon, so the teen,Kurisu escapes Heaven Because Kurisu is socially awkward she talks Itsuko into coming with her.

    Itsuko's organs were donated when she died in a car accident due to a "will" Itsuko left . Itsuko had a friend named Jun who needed a heart transplant which is why Itsuko made that will. Her older sister Chihiro now holds resentment towards Jun and Lia, who introduced Chihiro and Itsuko to Jun. When Itsuko arrives back on Earth she will see the good and the bad that her will left. (Her other organs went to other people, she'll meet some of those people.

    Kurisu and her little sister Mayuri were in a fire and Mayuri's body was comepletely burnt but she was still alive. Kurisu was brain dead after part of the roof of the burning house collapsed on her head but her body only suffered minor burns. Both bodies were recovered and in a last ditch effort to save Mayuri they transplanted her brain into Kurisu's body. This procedure is very new and doctors knew it would only keep Mayuri alive for a year before the body rejects the brain (Until then they'd use a treatment that allows the brain to trick the body into working for it be the ttreatment is temporary.Mayuri knows but Kurisu does not is this to much to put in a book thanks

  • Can someone please explain this popular saying to me? (Loneliness)?

    "If you don't enjoy your own company then no one else will."

    OK, to me when I read this, it sounds like whoever is saying "If you feel lonely, that means you have a problem/ you don't like yourself and so no one will want to hang out with you because your company is not enough for you."

    Is this what people mean? I definitely enjoy me time, but at the same time, there are times, especially when I go to work and see so many people happily hanging out with other people/ boyfriends/ girlfriends and I feel really lonely. I've drifted away from most if not all of my real life friends Does my feeling of loneliness indicate I don't like myself? I fully accept myself and refuse to change who I am and love my weirdness. (It's why I like spending time with myself But is my loneliness an underlying signI hate myyself?

    Thank you!

  • Is What I need Love Or Something Else?

    Soo I am dealing with depression right now.

    I know the biggest cause of my struggle is loneliness.

    I keep hearing all around me, from pople who I've talked to about my situation and people who I've not, say that you don't need people to complete you, all you need is yourself and you will be set.

    well I went through a lot of grade school having to settle with being my own company. It helped me keep my individuality and keep out of peer pressure, but I was always lonely. I could laugh by myself and be content with being my own company for the time being, but I would always come back to just, feeling lonely and hating it.

    right now in my heart, I truly wish I had close friends and a lover. is this what I really need? Or do I need something else. Please give me your opinions! Thankyou!
