i entered with no major (the "no major" option in community college is "liberal arts"). then, i majored in film after finishing the gen ed courses and going to university. (yeah, i knew it was risky, but i figured i didn't want to regret what i chose in college and wanted a career i could enjoy more than a safe bet.) after six months, i realized that film school is very stupid. but also, they're full of super-woke lefties, so i got the f*ck outta there.i switched my major to english; which is a more employable, more broad version of the same thing. i always wanted to be a writer and producer (still do; honestly; i've written a lot and come up with many show ideas). you can get a job as an entertainment writer with an english degree, but also do so much more. i was wrongfully expelled from my first university and spent three years in a lawsuit against them, which messed up my rate of getting a degree by a lot. i had to start most of my classes all over again in a new university while waiting on the lawsuit. by the time the lawsuit settled out of court for a measly $43,000 (which had a stipulation in it that all of that had to go towards school and tuition; i couldn't get to keep anything for myself), i graduated, and went for my masters in english for another two years. i only just got my masters in may of 2019. so i switched my major twice. now i'm a teacher in korea with a masters in english. i don't regret it, but the unjustified expulsion and lawsuit really f*cked up my path in life by three years. kia ora fang and welcome to studyit!

there are some really solid points made in this essay and you have addressed the question throughout. your use and choice of quotations is good.

some of your points are a bit hard to follow. from your planning, i would strongly suggest that you plan to a greate… A. It is not a surprise that you feel good when you are high on drugs; that is what they are designed to do. It is one of the main reasons why people use them. They make you feel good but they can ruin your life. Many lives have been destroyed by drug use.

LSD is particularly dangerous. It is a potent drug that has been linked to psychotic disorders. Make no mistake about it, you’re risking your mental health each time you use a drug.

Your drug use has already negatively impacted your life. You have not been officially charged with a crime but you’ve been close. Your luck could change.

You said that you despise school. So do many teenagers, but they still go to school. You’d be hard-pressed to find many teenagers who, if given the choice, would go to school voluntarily. There are many disadvantages to not finishing your basic education. Like drug use, not finishing school will be detrimental to your life.

I strongly urge you to seek counseling and to stop doing drugs. If your drug use continues, you risk getting into trouble and developing mental health problems. A mental health professional can treat the problems you have written about and facilitate your development of important problem solving skills. Please take care.

Help with LSD Abuse tell him to go for it. he needs to learn how to deal with rejection while he's young or he'll just avoid it all his life. hi maitri,




 first of all its nice to hear that you are focusing on getting highest marks in your board exams. the base foundation of getting excellent marks in exams is the thought of achieving it. if you think of it then you could achieve it. as you have prepared the base the next thing to do is planning and making a strategy.




 1. start your routine by waking up early and doing meditation. this practice is for keeping you brain healthy and active while doing the hard work ahead.




 2. take syllabus and start making a study plan for every subject that have mix of chapters. for ex- if you want to study maths then take 3-4 chapters at once in which one will be easy, second be a little hard and remaining should be harder. this is because the first chapter will give you momentum, the second on will prepare you brain to function and remaining chapters will get carry on through this momentum. do this for every subjects.




 3. you don't have to do any harsh practice. just do it smartly without counting of any hours you are studying. the more the merrier. you have to do it as better as you can. just remember every topic and point is important. you don't have the luxury of slacking in between any chapters.




 4. studying is not a thing that can be done without interests. you have to love studying and desiring of learning more to create a bigger vessel inside yourself. this bigger vessel will help you to collect more and more with time.




 5. don't compromise on anything. either it is study or health, you have to take care of both to keep you active mentally and physically.




 6. if you want any shortcut or tricks then don't depend on other materials. make it yourself. if you are able to do that then you will remember it for a longer period. you will also start enjoying it which the best part of studying with interest.




 7. lastly, make a goal. work for your goal and give it all to achieve that goal. goals are one of the reasons that make a person successful in his/her path.




 wish you good luck for future. A.Thank you for writing. I’m sure this is hard to live with. I think you keep having the fantasies because at some point they worked for you. You are a sensitive young woman who has a strong moral compass.

In 7th grade, you knew you had done something wrong and earned the reprimand. But, being you, you couldn’t let it go. You felt so bad about it that you went over it and over it. Crying may have relieved some of the intense feelings of shame and perhaps anger that went with thinking about what happened. If it had stopped there, it would have been an unfortunate reaction to a very usual piece of mischief that kids do.

But being as concerned as you are with right and wrong, any time since then that you have felt accused or reprimanded, it has reminded you of that first time when you were not only wrong but humiliated for it. Your unconscious self then also remembered that crying gave you some relief.

I suspect the “lesson” generalized and you started to cry any time you needed relief from stress. Stress just comes with being a teen so there was probably reason to look for some relief every day. But then you end up feeling bad that you feel bad. That must feel terrible!

Unfortunately, your reaction has become a kind of bad habit. Having practiced it for years, feeling sick or crying is an automatic response to stress.

You need some new ways to handle stress and shame. Maybe you can figure it out yourself but you would probably benefit from seeing a therapist who could give you some new tools and help you practice them. I hope you will consider seeing a licensed therapist to help you with this so you can go forward into adult life with less distressing ways for relieving anxieties and stress.

I wish you well

Why Do I Have Abusive Thoughts? HM ok, another day, another try, but I gotta say: The seemingly endless lessons about numbers and numbers on top of numbers and more numbers are really disencouraging me a lot. It's been a lot of fun up to this point, but I really don't see the point in filling out so much about numbers for the sake of numbers o\_o Could you, like, do a little less of that? * however, the quality of the roads is a far cry from the silky smooth expressways that you’ll glide across in singapore. a poor road system combined with a growing middle class who own an increasing amount of vehicles per household can quickly lead to crushing congestion problems. as traffic slows to a crawl, it’s not just the commuters that suffer. can you identify from where in your childhood this people pleasing dynamic stems from?why do you people please?what do you get from it?what might happen if you don't people please?rhetorical questions for self discovery. as my gong fu instructor used to say. 'awareness'. you should watch your inner thought processes and your bodily/feeling reactions, rather than necessarily having to get caught up in them or believing them, or even answering them. once they are watched and the own processes of your consciousness are understood more fully, they will start to lose their grip on you.the other thing worth bearing in mind is people are different in their own moods, feelings, perceptions, their own internal make up - karma - or reaction to things. therefore, they may be reacting in a way that is entirely nothing to do with you. you might also like to watch this video on healthy boundaries if you feel that might be an issue. A.Insomnia is no joke. Not getting sufficient [sleep](https://psychcentral.com/disorders/sleep/) at any age, but especially as a teen, is serious business. Sleep disorders can cause [depression](https://psychcentral.com/disorders/depression/), [anxiety](https://psychcentral.com/disorders/anxiety/), diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease. According to a poll done in 2005 by Sleep in America, people who were diagnosed with depression or anxiety were more likely to sleep less than six hours at night. A study done in 2007 showed that people with insomnia are 5 times as likely to be depressed as those who got sufficient sleep. At your age “sufficient” means 8 – 9 hours a night.

I urge you to go back to your medical doctor for more tests. I’m alarmed that you were drinking enough but not staying hydrated. There’s more to that than sleep deprivation. I’m also alarmed that apparently you were given a “diagnosis” but not then given a treatment plan to regulate your sleep.

If your primary care physician isn’t able to help you, get a referral to a sleep medicine clinic for a sleep study. Such clinics do a thorough evaluation of how much sleep a person gets and how often and for how long the person is awake. You may be sent home with a monitor to wear. More likely, you will be asked to spend the night at the clinic where they will monitor you throughout the night. You will sleep in a comfortable room in a comfortable bed. You can usually even bring your own pajamas.

Don’t be scared. A sleep study isn’t painful. Doctors or technicians will monitor you while you sleep. Little disks called electrodes will be temporarily glued to your head and attached to an EEG (*electroencephalogram*) machine. This will monitor the electrical impulses in your brain while you sleep and will show the technician how you are moving through the stages of sleep. It will measure possible interruptions in the pattern of your sleep. The technicians will also measure things such as eye movements, oxygen levels in your blood, heart and breathing rates, who much you snore, and how your body moves as you sleep.

The data from your sleep study will be evaluated by your doctor. You will then have a follow up appointment with your doctor to discuss the results and what may need to be done to help you have more regular and restorative sleep.

Please share this response with your parents. I don’t think you are lying or faking. I think you have an untreated medical condition that left untreated will only make things worse.

I wish you well.

Dr. Marie
