I highly recommend strong determination sittings, never have i been so confronted with the limitations the mind forces upon oneself.

In my opinion the most important thing to cope with this is: detach yourself from the opinion of others, you live in a world with 7 billion main characters, whose concern is centered on themselves, ultimately they don't care about your well-being, exceptions only validate this general insight. Recognize who and what influences your concepts of reality and try to detach yourself from this, generate your own way, opinions and actions of others are only the wind blowing. Remember that everybody goes through this, social friction is just an integral part of life, which you can use as a tool for growth by simply accepting it as ubiquitous. Your past is just a card you got handed from life, play it without complaining, because you won't be dealt another one and in the end it's just your skill which determines the outcome.

Donald who? No seriously, i agree with Eye he looks authentic, when swinging his speeches. A lot of "don't give a fuck" mentality with lots of populism, easy answers for complex questions, this is what people (with low self-reflection) thirst for, he uses their victim mentality to his advantage.

@8LanguageStud Just out of curiosity, how did he react?

Seriously, don't judge your self like this, you're human dude. Also the acceptance of a few guys in your class does shit for you, swimming with the crowd isn't what's going to save you. Who the fuck hinders you to get in touch with other people instead of looking at your computer the whole day - no one - be responsible for your time. You don't have to cling to your classmates, i mean there are a dozen things you can do to get to know people your age outside of school. Try to cultivate a mature view of the world, i mean what are your goals? To be the toughest kid in the street? You have to lift your ass up from the frustration asap and establish a positive view on life. You don't depend on the opinion of anyone, be your own man. Be fucking responsible for your behavior, i mean bullying a girl with a few classmates? Grow a backbone.

Surrender to it, accept your pain and your misery and next time you have to face a so called badass: stand your ground. Because that's what it's all about in my opinion. People sense your anxiety and treat you according to this and this again reinforces your anxiety. Just don't make a worm out of yourself, what do you have to lose? A life on your knees? You don't have to confront someone physically to don't be a coward, be smart and assertive. Work on your self-esteem, i mean you tell yourself you are clumsy and weak? Work on that and try positive affirmations instead of negative ones. In case you are talking about violent psychopaths known for beating the shit out of others for no reason: avoid them, dealing with psychopaths is hard for everyone.

Can agree on this, great book, highly recommended

Sounds like he has a psychological problem with his sexuality, especially that his penis gets flaccid when you touch it. Perhaps he thinks he is under pressure to prove his sexual skills to you and therefore can't enjoy the moment because of anxiety? Almost no guy would talk about this openly. Also the fact that he was 6 years in a relationship sounds interesting to me, plus the fact that he has no experience with other woman.. I think he pressures himself internally -> limp dingdong -> uncomfortable feeling for him -> talks nonsense to you to cover it up. If you are into him, give him time to open up and be sensitive.

I am aware of this. But not playing the game at all will add suspicion, i guarantee it.

Loyalty, so rare that it's almost ridiculous.

I know your struggle worst thing about gossiping is, if you don't take part in it, the fuckers often start gossiping about you. For me the best option was to detach myself from this social kindergarten, play a neutral role and if somebody fucks with me i confront them 1:1, because changing them is not working, they are stuck in their own behavior and by pointing it out to them you just isolate yourself further. But nevertheless, this is a very good chance to practice equanimity, if you learn to not get touched by the negativity, although you are confronted with it the whole day, there will be guaranteed growth.

It depends on the supplement, for example Vit D3 supplementation would be best in the morning with food. Magnesium would be better in the evening without food, but lots of water. Solubility is crucial, is the substance you supplement water soluble or fat soluble -> fat rich foods enhance resorption of fat soluble compounds, resorption of water soluble compounds is enhanced by water consumption. Just look up the solubility of your compound.

Yeah this is it! I didn't think about that, will look for a yoga & meditation retreat during my vacation

This.. is deep stuff, thanks for sharing!

Hey, This is your real problem: "I'm 17, a highschool student in my final year. for the past 3-4 years I've been quite unhappy. I don't know why, just life in general has been stressful to me and I haven't found a real passion in life or an ambition." Key issue i see here is: you have no relationship with yourself, play the victim, therefore you tape yourself onto other human beings. Try to discover yourself and be happy with your company, girls will come and go, don't depend on that, no healthy woman on earth will ever fall for dependency. Work your ass off for yourself by working out and gaining exceptional skills, realize that nobody is going to rescue you, you stand by your own. If you learn this simple last sentence now - with 17 - you have all chances in your life, i would eat a truckload of shit just to have the chance to teach this to myself as i was 17. Also listen and re-listen Leo's stuff on happiness, playing the victim and relationships, helped me and it will help you.

"A smart ugly man can have success with women, but a pretty idiot is irresistible." - William Makepeace Thackeray .. that's what life taught me so far

Never take something personally, there is no one to be offended, just a leased future corpse

1) digestive health: flax seeds (high in alpha linolenic acid: antiinflammation properties; also high in kalium: good because modern diets are usually high in sodium) also have a nice nutty taste ; also chia seeds are quite nice, with coconut milk -> they swell and you have a nice smoothie, probably avocados and pears as addon? 2) immune system: what about experimenting with mushrooms? Ganoderma lucidum (Reishi Mushroom) or Lion's Mane, both famous for their immune system boosting properties, there are grow kits available, they are quite simple to cultivate, question is: what fruits will cover the taste?

Basically i fast the whole day (exception: vegetables, nuts, green tea) and take a big meal in the evening (including loads of protein). I feel great since i do this, mental clarity peaks and overall well-being has increased. Eating carbs in the morning or at noon makes me sleepy. I take a whole day fast every two weeks on sunday (only low calory vegetables and water).

Leo has a few videos on this, unfortunately i do not exactly remember which titles. Ask in the self actualization subforum, someone will have the answer. Message was "nothing can make you happy outside yourself", you don't depend on anyone. Also i highly recommend reading about stoicism, this will ground you.

What toby said, it could be a characteristic of an autism spectrum disorder. Especially the fact that you have no problem with talking about professional stuff openly versus the inability to have casual small talk. But it could also be a fear of rejection, due to past stimuli, the professional talk being your save haven. Eliminate your neediness first, if you are constantly under pressure because you think you are unable to have small talk, you will go nowhere.

Science has it's limits, if you know science theory (Thomas S. Kuhn did profound work here): it is only an approximation of reality, a spiral swirling around the truth of nature. You sound very practical, spirituality is not practical at all, it is not a basic need as your suggested skills, like gathering food. I count myself as highly science oriented, in my opinion it is interpretation which divides or unites spirituality and science, for example the laws of thermodynamics: Energy can not be created, it cannot be destroyed, it can only be transformed: all Energy which will ever exist exists already. This is pure physics, yet for me this is a mindblowing spiritual thing.

Be honest with him, i am sure he understands your concern and if not you've tried at least. Just hand it to him in a sensitive way, to minimize intimidation. Wish you luck!
