I'm h-here for you, Anonymous. Don't suffer in silence.

How do we know you're not an impostor?

Is the field of psychology in crisis due to the discovery that the findings of half of all psychological studies cannot be reproduced?

Meditate on it then you will know it's the true one

malk?

just one of those things

How long does it take to forget?

Depends on what it is you want to forget.
The more important question is "why", not "how long"; our memories, even if they are scars, define us Anonymous.

Don't casually throw them away; you might end up repeating them.

Why is your name Alice2? Who's Alice1?

M-my wayward mother, of course.

They're not scars. Compare it to a stranger having a chat with you on the streets.

I don't quite grasp the analogy; can you help me understand what you mean?

I literally mean what I said, it isn't an analogy. Is my setup compromised, do I need to switch identities?

Probably.

Shit. Can you confirm I made an impression?

My parents found out I smoke weed recently. Got pretty emotional but they were OK about it because they trust me to not progress any further on and fuck my life up. But I've been feeling like a cunt recently because I've already taken LSD and might do MD in the future. No real question here, just a little worried that this is the part were I fuck my life up.

I don't like how you change the thread image.

Sent from my Android.

Don't, for the love of god, do MD. What are you thinking dude?

You did

Are you ever gonna do one of those cooking things again?

Mmhm

Oh no, any tips on behaving like a separate person?

What country do you live in?

Ah ah ah...that's a secret, dearie

MMMMMMMMMMMURICA

How is babby formed?

You were saying you felt sick in previous threads as well. Do you have a medical condition or something?

I'm not really sure...
I used to be a huge nerd and spend all my time indoors playing league and stuff like that. Then I decided to fuck that and put myself out there and I ended up becoming a lot happier and I found a bunch of friends I love spending time around. Some of then have done it before and seem pretty positive about it.

That's not what I meant, not at all. Look, I have a top secret operations that has dependence on you. Please, give me further instructions.

That image sucks, alice.

syrian refugees raping women

I currently have a cold! It's awful.

But I am immuno-compromised, yes.

>I have a top secret operations that has dependence on you
I'm gonna go with "hard no".

Thanks, a friend of mine made it

do you like surshu?

Okay, maybe not. But seriously, I could use some help. Is changing my hair style, clothing style and way of talking enough?

...

Alice, why did I laugh at that?

Why are you trying to change yourself?

>surshu
Nope!

It's funny.

Who's your favourite 2hu besides Alice?

Neurotoxic just sounded like some sort of "medical jargon" when I was researching it, but to be honest I feel like you're going to be a better source than where I got that information.
Do you think smoking weed frequently will fuck my life up?
I'd say I'm pretty responsible.

I wouldn't want to change myself, just maybe for a day? I need to decrease suspicion.

alice do you like suppu?

I don't really like touhou.

"medical jargon". What? Are you serious?
Break the word down. Neuro = brain, toxic = I think you can figure this one out.

What do you think the effects of taking something that is neurotoxic is?

Smoking is a terrible way to imbibe literally any substance; smoking anything cannot be considered responsible. Invest in a vape.

Why?

Why do you ask?

how to get over a ruined childhood?

How do I get around sexual frustration, apart from wanking? I live in a rural area and won't be able to meet anyone new till October. Plus, I'm pretty socially inept, I'm not very good at non-platonic relations with people in general

therapy

*hugs tightly* Tell me how it was ruined.

What is wrong with wanking?

Because I want to stay out of troubles?

Rape someone

psychology is pseudo science
quack
you fell for the help others meme and just use the the status of medicine to further your agenda. you wouldnt have gone into """helping""" others if it meant youd be a pauper. you just pray on 'shitties' and according to miss shrink what they need to solve their problems is what you're selling.

Meditating

its normal thinking about of ways to suicide ? its normal always thing about bad things?

thank you user

idk you don't like surshi you dont even like souppo, wat do yo ulike?

Thanks for setting me straight I guess.
Can I ask what your experience with drugs is, and your overall opinion on them?

I want to be productive but can't motivate myself to do anything with in turn makes me angry and feeds my self loathing

Pretty normal, an hero please.

Sometimes when I go to the toilet at night I get the feeling that someone might creep up at me any moment. Normal?

I avoid social attention to the core; no social media with my real name, my instagram (only social media account) only has 86 followers all of which I know personally.

yet I am friends with key people in my city's social group and there are people whom I don't know; know my whole name. I act like this bothers me, yet I secretly enjoy the fuck out of being known while not putting myself out there.

how fucked am I in the head?

Yes, it's the natural fear humans have of the dark. We can't know what's there.

Why do you fear for yourself?

Yeah, psychology is part of STEM, but okay.

No, that is a symptom of depression. Seek medical attention.

Beef and bell peppers.

My opinion is that each drug is unique, has a side effect profile that is unique, and should be treated carefully with plenty of research done before hand.

There is no "one size fits all" for drugs or medication.

Motivation comes from doing, doing doesn't come from motivation. Pick a project, divide it into VERY small bite sized pieces, and force yourself to do one. It will help you do the next, then the next, etc etc.

From what I know, neurotoxin is, in short 'brain poison', it gets at your brain and messes it up something fierce

-Sweet Roll

Ive started to dress recently and I feel good about it. could see myself going down the tranny route eventually.

tbh Im scared turning into a "desirable" woman may be a coping mechanism for rejecting myself
Im hesistant to pull through because I figure there might be a true mental issue at the bottom of this

Because I know how much better sex is. And I'm sick of watching porn, but I lack the self cotrol to stop looking at it. But if I don't watch it, I can't jack it. And if I can't jack it, I can't sleep. Like, literally, severely reduced sleep.

I've started having issues with feeling really, like unbearably anxious about nothing after taking antipsychotics. Obviously I can't just stop taking my medication, so what do? I am seeing my psychiatrist next week btw.

I already have enough problems, going downtown isn't going to help it a lot.

If it passes, normal.

Not at all. You just need more social interaction.

Have you been to a doctor or therapist yet?

Sounds like you need to lay off the porn for a few weeks.

Talk to your doctor SOON. Call them up on the phone if you have to; they are usually totally fine with that.

Increased anxiety is a side effect of some antipsychotics, and demands immediate attention.

you think i can kill my self one day? i mean , i dont want to, i just think about that...

I think you need to talk to a doctor about these sorts of intrusive thoughts. It is not normal and can be signs of bad things.

Sounds like solid advice, thank you.
This is a bit of a silly question but it's really fucking with me so I'm gonna ask it anyway: is it worth going after a girl way above my league who almost definitely isn't into me (she thought I was gay) just to fulfill the part inside of me that wants her really badly.

hmm you're not too much of a psychologist...

wat, no beetrooto?

no not yet but I figure as soon as I want to start going on hormones I would have to sit down with a therapist eventually

me too, maybe you will. but only when you feel completely trapped and there's no other way. sometimes just small things like talking to a stranger will make you think twice. and thinking twice means you still have your doubts. and if you doubt killing yourself, then well, most of the time you won't. cheer up user, and talk to someone about it, trust me, it helps.

There is no concept of "leagues"; women don't work that way. You aren't numbered. Ask her out, the worst she can say is no.

You should sit down with one two months ago; it can take up to three months of talks with psychs or therapists to get hormones for HRT.

Just cuz it's not the answer you want doesn't make it not a valid answer.

sorry to upset you with this ... I think I'm fucked up because of my childhood : I had to deal with my grandfather and my mother until they die ... now I'm 21 , I lack nothing , I have a comfortable life despite some crises that can not control myself and talk bad about people or do things they do not want, but with the awareness that I am doing wrong

It's not really upsetting to me; I deal with worse constantly. But you definitely need to seek help Anonymous.

Notice me.

Hi. What can I do for you?

I was the 2nd kid, my father was a stern man that always seemed to love my older bother more witch lead me in a downwards spiral of self loathing and search for instant gratification over enduring any turmoil (ie being here) with time I tried my best to devalue my father's opinions but it never went away, a crippling voice forcing me to deal with the fact that my I missed the other half of my childhood, and now even if he wanted it's too late to even amend his ways, I shunned him from my life and left as soon as I could, I want to accept him but I can't do it, a deep hatred for what he did still lingers

the thing is i dont have no one to talk about, my father its cool but dont talk , my sister is a selfish bitch , and i live with my girlfriend i dont like to upset her with this, cus i understnd that its a shit and when im with her i feel fine

a few years ago i was chad,i literally had girls fall in love with me and i was constantly fighting with people so much i was banned from school(i accidentally in one of my fights hurt this teacher and apparently she had to go to the hospital).thing is in my country when you are banned you either go to a school where most banned people go or you wait for a school that will accept you.
for some reason i waited for a new school that would accept me and well i had to wait 1 year for that school,in that year i developed this fear for punching people and turned fat.this was like 3 years ago when i was 16,still is there a way to defeat this fear for punching people?
(sorry if this post is confusing,i am drunk as fuck).

>'shitties'
What's a shitty?

Evening, Alice! If you say that you still have a cold, why don't you follow the same advice that you've given to many anons on your threads?

Why don't YOU finally go see the doctor?

Hope you're having a great weekend.

Can you say something nice to me before I go to bed?

How do I end my infinite search for instant gratification on this vile place?

Why do you studder?

How do I disappear?

*picks you up and carries you to bed, gently tucking you in and leaning over you, smiling, leaning down to whisper in your ear "You are full of stars" before kissing your forehead and leaving*

What is studder?

thats true theres probably no other way around it
I just fear I could get to a point of no return before ever figuring this out completely

I'm gonna fly like a bird

I've run out of fruit memes sorry.
I guess I could give it a go, I'm just worried about the social repercussions. She's a friend right now and I worry that if I ask her out it could ruin that, and potentially this entire friend group.
(of which I am now very fond of)
Also, on a side note: do you like Bob Dylan?

Not OP: What kind of bird?

Hi.... sorry I'm a faggot who need help. I am male but part of me wants to transition.. I don't know what to do because part of me also doesn't want to its been killing me for years now and I don't know what to do. Sorry I know I'm a faggot and yeah I know I should kms.

Why i dont like me?

Why do I shiver when I already made up my mind?

I have visited a psycologist and have been doagnosed with anxiety however I dont really want any help with my issues anymore.I feel like it is a weakness and I hate talking about it to my family who are trying to be supportive but just end up pissing me off by talking about it. Is this normal and what am I meant to do as I have a follow up appointment soon so how am I meant to tell my psyciatrist?

Can I fuck you?

Already did. Said they couldn't do anything for me.

You probably shouldn't be drinking if you are that old.

By clicking the little X

W-why don't you?

Therapists are THERE TO HELP YOU. Use them!

Uh. I don't mind him. A bit old for me.

Well Leafy, I recommend you talk to a therapist or psychologist that is in the field of sexual or gender therapy. They can help you sort this out: that's their job, after all.

I would but I can't afford a therapist plus I'm a NEET who can barely leave his own apartment.
