Alright so ever since I ve got to college I ve been smoking everyday and all the people I ve met when high probably wouldn t say I m very anti-social when I m high because I still talk and make jokes. However, When I m around a lot of people at a club or something I get like social anxiety and its hard for me to even like function and know what to do. However, I have gotten used to ordering food at places when super stoned and not seeming like an idiot. When I drink though I stop thinking about what I should do and I just do it which is why even though weed will always be my number 1 I still love alcohol. I just asked my friends yesterday if they feel more awkward when they are high and they all said it makes them feel more confident which was so surprising to me. So my question is how do I stop getting social anxiety/ awkard stages when I m high?

I know once I have my career as a biochemist I'll be able to afford to pay off student loans and other expenses although I'd prefer not to have them. Recently however my parents are trying to take me out of college because they don't want me smoking weed. I still have good grades literally the only problem my parents have is that I'm smoking weed. They went through my messages and **** on my computer and have caught me smelling like weed in the past. I'm the farthest from a deadbeat loser pothead and could probably run circles around my parents in anything related to academics, knowledge or logical reasoning. So I tried to tell my parents how ridiculous they are being but idk if I can talk my way out letting me stay. Is there anyway I could get financial help with paying for the first four years of college? I'm already in a program for stem kids at my university and I have so much college credit idk why my parents are being so crazy. Do colleges offer help to legally emancipated students? Should I legally emancipate myself in 2 weeks when I turn 18?

Usually I m pretty good remaining calm even though I get pissed off really easily but sometimes I can t. I hate the feeling of being angry because it makes me feel like I m going insane. Since as I m trying to keep calm, all I can do is get more angry. My vision can get blurry and I ll have hot and cold flashes. Smoking weed usually controls my anger both when I m high and not high(if I ve smoked the previous day or 2). And it s not that I m addicted to weed because I ve been like this even before I started smoking(Only weed). I m scared though because I m a logically thinking person and it s impossible for me to think logically when I m angry. I m scared that in one of my anger fits I might do something I ll regret(when I m calm again all those angry thoughts completely disappear though). When someone pisses me off all I can think of is just crushing there neck with my hands and stomping their skull to a mush. How can I control my anger better? I fear someday it ll get the best of me.

SO I m looking for a turntable to start listening to vinyl records with. I ve seen the crosly cruisers which seem to be a cheap decent brand except some people have said that the crosley brand s turntables will ruin you re records. If that s true are there any turntables that won t ruin my records that costs less than $80?

It seems like the drug would take you completely out of it. Just from what I heard it sounds like you would kind of just have to sit down by yourself and vibe yet it s something mostly done at parties which are social events. Plus I imagine it would be pretty obvious that something was up to the point that you wouldn t even look attractive to the opposite sex so why would you drink it at a party??? I smoke weed and barely BARELY drink. I don t plan on trying lean I just wanted to know more about.

Whenever I'm by myself or around a lot of people I don't know while high or drunk I stop being able to enjoy myself and I feel terrible. Like as I look around the simplest conversations seem so bizarre to me and I have no idea what's going on. Sometimes this transistors to the next day and I'll walk around school talking to people and laughing and making jokes like a normal person even though my mind is somewhere else. Like I said if I'm around people I know well I'm fine but I don't think I should be drunk or high when meeting people for the first time even though everyone around me says it's easier to meet people like that. I started to think maybe I have social anxiety but I'm not really thinking about what other people thinking of me instead im mostly just thinking about how weird anything and everything is. I plan on stopping for awhile. And maybe when I'm older ill try again.(I'm 17) So my question is is this normal? And has this happened to anyone else?

My parents are acting crazy. They ve caught me after I ve smoked weed a few times and they are all of a sudden acting crazy. They say my eyes look bad when I m not high and they say my room smells like weed when I wasn t smoking in it since I HAVE NEVER SMOKED IN MY ROOM BEFORE. And now they are threatening to not pay for my college because my grades suck. I have a 3.2 gpa and a 3.7 hpa and got a 1970 on sat and 28 on act. So basically they are have turned into literal pyschos. Disregarding hard facts and listening to facts that suit there agenda like how marijuana is "addictive". And they are saying how because my room is kind of messy its because I m smoking weed even though it s always been messy. Idk what to do like hate them and the only power they have over me is money. Like I don t need them in my lives and I don t want them in my life. They have probably been the biggest negative influence on my life. They have anger management problems and get mad and start yelling about everything and that s the way its been since I was little. So realistically what should I do. I m majoring in chemistry in college and I can stop smoking weed until then I don t really care but IDK how much longer I cant stand them. Like honestly I don t love them anymore this beyond teen angst. What can I do to get these psychos out of my life?

This girl won't stop looking at me and finds every ******* way to try and talk to me. She literally walked up to me and asked me if I had anything funny to say. And I was just like no. I'm pretty sure she liked me because she awkardly also said she finds me cute but I think she is one of the ugliest human beings I have ever seen. I only started out being kind of nice to her because she is one of my good friends good friends but I could never date her because I find her soo unattractive. I know that sounds shallow but I have thought about it and I really don't like her personality at all either. So I was wondering how can I tell her I don't like her without being mean, as mean as I may sounds I am not a rude person. She has mutual friends with me in class so I don't want things to be awkward.

Ok so I have this girl in my class so there is a lot of time to talk but I have yet to talk to her very much. I notice that when ever the few people in there are kind of talking to each other or the teacher and I start talking she keeps looking at me when I turn around. (We are on computers in a small room and we are facing away form each other.) I also overheard her talking to this kid that sits next to her. He called me over about a videogame I was playing and while I was talking to him I noticed her looking at me and smiling(it was a pretty childish game for a highschooler to be playing). After I walked away she was like "He still hasn't noticed me" and then he said "you should just go over and talk to him". Now I'm getting like really nervous because I think she is really pretty and she PLAYS VIDEOGAMES <3. But I've never had a girlfriend before and I don't even have my drivers license. So my question is how should I show her I'm interested? Also Is there any point in trying to have a girlfriend without a car? I feel like that would be so lame having my parents drop me off when we want to hang out or go to the movies -_-

I am going to attend college this summer and I was going to major in biotechnology.However I have just started watching cosmos with Neil Degrasse Tyson and this is all of things I find amazing about the world around us. The weight that he gives to things as simple as an electron jumping through orbitals is some of the most interesting stuff I've ever heard about. I've always been interested with the very large things like our universe and the small things like atoms way more than the people around me. So, if I was going to major in something other than biotechnology where do you think I would enjoy myself and also how could test the waters to see if it's really what I want to do? I'm not the smartest person but I am definitely one of those people that realize how stupid people are in general. I got a 1970(680 math, 650 reading, 640 writing, I DON'T EVEN LIKE WRITING!!) on sat by studying for 2 hours and 28 on ACT without studying at all and I do truly feel that if I applied myself I could learn anything and possibly apply my knowledge to change the course of history I know ambitious but I only have one life and I do want to live it without any regrets.

I remember when I was four(might've been 3 but before I was 5) on my first day of pre-k where I realized that 3+3=6; I stuck up 3 fingers on each of my hands, counted them separately and then counted them together. However, it wasn't until at least another year later that I was showed how to use this concept in school. My parents taught me numbers and values but never taught me to add.I know I'm not stupid because I got a 1970(680 math, 650 reading, 640 writing, I DON'T EVEN LIKE WRITING!!) on sat by studying for 2 hours and 28 on ACT without studying at all. I've also always been interested by science specifically since I was 6. I feel like if I was encouraged to work more in the sciences I would be way smarter and would've been able to do something much more useful. And till this day (i'm 17 now) I still feel like so much of my life has been wasted studying not nearly as useful stuff as science. And now after watching cosmos with Neil Degrasse Tyson and literally smoking weed and just thinking about the universe with a friend I understand just how awesome the universe is on a level that I feel most people don't.Do you think I would be smarter if I was allowed to build on my strengths earlier? Also do you think the school system is flawed since it doesn't promote thinking differently from everyone else? I know this is kinda of ranty please answer my questions and provide your own experiences because I really just want to here what other people think. Please read all of this!

I smoke weed and I plan to do psychedelics when I go off to college since my parents barely let me out the house cause they want me to be a straight edge :) I have one friend that's done cocaine before(also in highschool) and nothing happened to him and most of the time he still only smokes weed. I'm starting to wonder if cocaine isn't as bad as they make it out to be and if what I know about it is propaganda. Cause back in middle school they told us that bob marley died of gangrene in his foot because he smoked marijuana, this was a public school too like wtf?!?

I want one of those older looking models like a buick regal from 1990s and before. I like that look of the thin steering wheel and just kind of retro/cheap. But I don't want it to break down 2 years after I buy it. Are there any well built retro looking cars that get decent gas mileage and are preferably cheap? thanks

Someone please help me. I've never had a girlfriend and I'm a senior in highschool I've realized when girls liked me in the past but I never liked them back so I just brushed them off not trying to lead them on. Now I have two girls I'm sure like me but idk how to talk to them or what to talk about. I really want to make somethin happen but I'm nervous as hell. I haven't had a good friend that was a girl since middle school so I feel like I have no one to ask for help. So how should I introduce myself I know that both of them know my name already so where should I go from there?

I'm not looking for the super expensive authentic Andy Warhol signed prints but definitely good poster quality prints. I don't know why but I just love his Endangered Species and I can't seem to find any prints available online. Im looking for prints that are kinda like whats on this website http://www.art.com/gallery/id--a76/andy-warhol-pos...

I mean I love weed but the more intense stuff seems pretty stupid to try yet so many people seem to try them anyway. Im talking about anything from alcohol to percocet to salvia. Why do you think that humans always find a way to get high even when they don t have money? Just trying to have a discussion here lol.

Where can I get some of those tee shirts that have the cool designs on the pockets. Some of them seem to be ridiculously expensive and I feel like there is somewhere that sells them for cheap.

So I have probably smoked on like 20 different occasions so I'm still pretty lightweight. I usually smoke but I did eat a brownie last week. I usually am just happy and enjoy myself. But yesterday I started to think about how weird I look and how weird other people look and now I literally am having trouble seeing the world the same. Like I was feeling really depressed for the firs time ever. I usually think I look alright but then I started feeling like a 0 out of 10. I also lost like all sexual attraction to anything at the time because I was thinking about how weird sex is and how no one is really attractive. Has this happened to anyone? Has anyone else been on like this higher level of thinking before or am I tripping really hard?

So I was planning to hang out with one of my friends and some of his female co workers this weekend and just smoke and drink some. I smoke but I figured there's a first time and so I'm planning on drinking a little. But I don't know his coworkers at all. I have friends that are girls, like I'm not that weird, but I am really bad at trying to force conversation. I don't want to be the awkward guy sitting in corner. How should I make conversation with these ladies because apparently some of them are really cute and I'd like to make something happen.

My dad's sister has died from a brain aneurysm. My grandmother had one like tied off I think and my cousin that died about a year ago may have died from one. I'm african american and apparently that makes me more at risk. I'm 17 and I'm starting to get scared. My blood pressure is good I'm not fat im like 5' 11" 150 so im not like really unhealthy and I dont drink alcohol. Is there anything else I can do to make stay safe. The dangers of it are kind of frightening since it has such a high death rate.
