    Self Discipline

    I really need to get self-discipline. Does anyone have some advice? A little background: I've never been a very self-disciplined guy. I procrastinate a lot. In the last few years it has gotten worse though. Since I don't have uni any more and I don't have a job either, I don't have a need to...

    Working at a call center

    Has anyone here ever worked at a call center? How was it? I need money if I want to move out and live by myself, but I can only work part time right now. The only part time jobs I've seen around are pretty much in call centers, so I don't have a lot of choice. If it's something that I think I...

    Games - character gender, appearance and personality

    I'm curious to know what gender do you usually choose when creating a character in any sort of game. I myself used to always choose a character of my gender, and I'd try my best to make him resemble me, both physically and mentally. Nowadays I'm starting to change things up a bit. Sometimes I...

    Do you know what triggered your social anxiety?

    I am not exactly sure what triggered mine, but I'm constantly thinking about it trying to figure out where things went wrong. I don't know why I do this, since it seems that knowing it won't really help me dealing with it. My current theory about when I started closing myself from the people...

    Should I send this with my CV and cover letter?

    I'm applying for this job and I have a 10 year-old assessment that says I'm a smart person and that I have very high analytical skills and other stuff like that. My dad, who used to work in psychology, says all these traits in the assessment don't change much throughout life, and the recruiters...

    Minichat messages

    Would it be possible to have minichat not clearing the messages when you close the page? It's really annoying when someone writes me a lot but I don't have time to read, and when I open it again it's all gone. Another issue is that it also clears the messages I received while offline when I...

    How do you express your creativity?

    I've read in a lot of places that expressing your creativity is good for you and something you should do regularly. I myself don't express my creativity a lot since I don't even know in which way I'd like to express it. So my question is how do you express your creativity? Do you write novels...

    Playing online games with the forum

    If you want to join the steam group, PM me your steam name. The credit of the group name goes to BlackPuma. I suggest we create a group of people who play games together for a few hours a week. It should be focused on having fun and not on playing competitively. It would also be good for those...

    January Goals

    We already had a December Goals thread before, so why not have a January one? Starting tomorrow I'm actually going to start doing things. I already did nothing in the past 6 months. I signed up for a few online courses (one of them started 5 days ago, but I only signed up today). I'll be...

    Help me fight anxiety

    I would like it if you guys could give me suggestions of things to do to battle my anxiety (sorta like challenges I guess?) and other recommendations from people who've been in similar situations. For a while now I've been thinking that I probably don't have SA or AvPD, but last weekend I went...

    Am I sleeping too much?

    It's getting common for me to sleep 10 hours a day during the summer evenn if I do nothing all day (like most days). Still, when I went on a 6 day vacation recently I slept 8 hours a day and when I came back, I kept that rhythm for around 5 days, after which I got back to 9 and then 10 hours a...

    X-day challenge thread

    As most of you probably know, it's usually easier to stick to something when other people know you're doing it. I thought this thread could be used for those challenges that don't last more than a few days and thus making a new thread for each one of them seems a bit pointless. Well, my...

    Anxiety when home alone

    The other day I was discussing with another person (online) about a certain med that we both took. I take Alprazolam before going to university every morning (0,25mg) to reduce my anxiety (I get anxious in quiet places with a lot of people). The person I was talking to takes about 1mg, but he...

    Making a one week schedule

    I spend way too much time in front of my computer. I was reading some random self-improvement article and I thought that I could create myself a schedule for next week, where I would spend most of my time outside of my house. My day usually goes like this: wake up 7am, go to classes, get back...

    Ambition, curiosity, and other things troubling me

    I was going to post this in the random thoughts/feelings thread but I thought it would fit better here, since I wrote a lot more than I was intending to in the first place. I was wondering if the reason I don't have any ambition in terms of career and that the only thing I actually want in my...

    What do you do in your free time?

    I want to have something to do to pass my time. I don't have much to do at home (I don't want to waste my time on the internet), sometimes I go to the gym nearby but I can only go at specific hours. I wanted something that I could do by myself and outside. Visiting places around the city isn't...

    Reasons/excuses to talk to someone

    Is being present in a little group chat before an exam (I don't think I participated, or if I did it wasn't much) a good excuse to talk to someone who participated in that chat afterwards? Not necessarily after the exam. This little chat was last Thursday and the next time I'll see said person...

    Might have chosen the wrong bachelor's

    I don't know if this is the right place for this. First of all, I'm in the last year of my bachelor's (Economics). As I get closer to the end of the course, I'm starting to wonder if this is the right degree for me, and that makes me unmotivated to study my current units. I can't find any...
