I am a diehard Brony (favorite character is Applejack) I'm 18 and straight and play on my high school varsity baseball team I live in the Chicagoland area Also, Read my popular Mlp fanfic which was featured on Fimfiction.net on May 15th, 2012 http://www.fimfiction.net/story/26155/The-Secrets-of-Twilight-Sparkle%27s-Past-and-Future

  • Why can't I think anymore?

    I am a 20 year old male college student. For the past few months I've had trouble sometimes understanding and comprehending even the most simple things. It's difficult to put into words, but it's like the concept of understanding words in my head is all fuzzy. It's not so bad when I'm reading or writing, this applies to a much greater extant when I'm listening to any sort of dialogue, whether it's television or whatnot. Even children's shows are difficult to understand when all this used to be no problem. It's like I try to understand and over-think everything out of fear of not understanding things, and therefore I can't enjoy anything. It's very twisted. And I've researched all over and couldn't find anyone else with this kind of problem specifically.

    A couple things important things: I've been diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety disorder, and have been and am currently taking an antidepressant/anxiolytic medication. First I took an SSRI type antidepressant however that didn't help much so I ceased that, and this problem started to happen after taking that for a while. It's been a couple months since ceasing that however so I'm not sure if there's a connection or not.

    Also, I've had a fairly heavy marijuana habit for about a year and a half, originally as a coping mechanism for depression and anxiety. I know this obviously is not great for thinking, and I've actually quit now for a couple weeks in order to alleviate the problem, without much success. Help?

  • How old is 20 actually?

    I turn 20 in about three weeks, and I've actually been having a little bit of anxiety about it. I'm just wondering, is 20 years of age really all that old? Like I know it isn't in reality, people live to be 100+. And Americans live for an average of about 78 years or something. But the 20s are the first decade where people are going to begin to expect you to act like a mature adult... And I'm far from that, I still act like a dumb teen when I'm with my college buddies and do teenage things for the most part. But soon... I won't be a teenager.

    I mean, these might be stupid questions and probably are, but I want some reassurance anyway. Does life change all that much for a 19 year old when he turns 20? Is a 20 year old male expected to act more mature and responsible than a 19 year old, because it's a new decade and "sounds" more adultish? Will I be treated differently at all? Also, as a college baseball athlete, do I need to worry about my athletic ability decreasing any time soon because of age, even if I don't work out as much as I probably should?

    Once again, my apologies if this is a silly question, I just want to be reassured from someone who's already gone through turning 20.

  • Do I have exceptionally fast metabolism?

    Basically I eat like crap. My diet consists almost entirely of pizza, burgers, candy, and all sorts of other fatty and terrible stuff I know is bad for me (But tastes so good! Lol). I've basically been eating this way my entire life. I'm male, 19, 6'3", pretty fit I'd say (Play baseball and football, Though I do spend A LOT of time sitting at the computer and watching television... ), weigh 210 lbs, and though I'm larger than the majority of people, I barely have any fat on me. Mostly muscle. I also NEVER get sick (other than the occasional common cold), I had perfect attendance in high school.

    I come from an athletic lineage, so I'm sure it has something to do with that, but I still thinks it's odd that I'm as healthy and fit as I am now after such a terrible diet growing up. My friends call me really weird, and my parents are just amazed that I'm not fat lol.

    Is this a result of just exceptionally fast metabolism? Is this a good thing that I should feel fortunate for?

    Just curious XD

  • To bronies of season 1?

    How did you get through and remain a brony through the long summer between seasons one and two?

    I know about fanfic and stuff which I read a lot, as well just like other stuff not mlp related obviously, but I was just wondering what bronies that were around during season 1 did after season 1 ended during the 4 or 5 month break between seasons. I just think its kinda depressing that there isn't any new eps for a long time, what do you guys think? I'm asking this cuz I wasn't around during season 1 (I became a brony in January) so I don't really know what people did. Can't wait for season 3 though obviously!

    Brohoof!

  • Help on this Chemistry Question please?

    I think this is really easy but I'm having a brain cramp so I'm not sure, could someone please help me with this chemistry question? The M stands for Molarity in the question.

    The concentration of HCl = 6.2 X (10 to the negative fourth power) M. What is the concentration of the ions in the solution?

    Thanks!

  • Is anyone else going to buy the new My little pony: Friendship is magic toys at McDonalds?

    I've noticed that quite recently my local Mcdonald's has started selling My little pony toys. This is awesome and since I'm a diehard brony, I NEED to get all the mane 6 since I don't have any of the toys cuz it would be kinda weird for an 18 year old like me to walk into some toy store and get them. I'm probably going to go there with some friends and get them this Friday. I was just wondering if they're selling them at every McDonald's nationwide and if fellow bronies feels the same way as I do about getting them. The guys working there might laugh but I don't care I'm probably gonna wear my rainbow dash shirt.

  • Are people still playing skyrim?

    I have over 200 hours on the game, and I'm still not even close to done. I know its been almost two months since the game has been released but I'm just wondering if I've been playing it too much or if other people are still playing it. Is it still as popular now as it was in November?

  • Can someone please help with this chemistry question?

    A 150.0 g sample of a metal at 75.0 degrees Celsius is added to 150.0 g of water at 15 degrees Celsius. The temperature of the water rises to 20.8 degrees Celsius. Calculate the specific heat of the metal assuming no heat loss to the surroundings.

  • Did the Aztecs and the Incans know about eachother?

    I know both the Aztec Empire and the Incan Empire existed at the same time (roughly around 1500 AD) but did they even know each other existed? I would guess they probably did, but I'm not really not sure. They were separated by most of central America I believe. I can't really find anything on them knowing about sending messengers or anything online so I don't know.

  • Can someone write a syllogistic argument that is three statements long?

    For example:

    All Puddings are nice

    This dish is a pudding

    No nice things are wholesome

    Therefore (not sure)

    Can someone please make something just like this except a little different and also have a conclusion. I don't know how to conclude an argument that has more than three statements and i need to make a different one with a conclusion.

    Thanks I appreciate it

  • How was central/south America involved in the world wars?

    I was just wondering if any of the countries in Central and South America had anything to do with World War 1 and 2, cuz you just don't ever hear about them. I know most of the action was in Europe, Africa, and east Asia, but did anything happen in South or Central America? Just wondering.

  • Is 17 too old to like and commonly watch Disney movies?

    My favorite movies are still like Finding Nemo and The Lion King? Its kind of a guilty pleasure of mine, watching this stuff. Like I'm not obsessed with it, I like baseball and stuff too (I play baseball for my high school baseball team). Is that unusual for a 17 year old boy or am I way too old for that stuff? Basically what I'm trying to say is am I too old for kid stuff?
