H-hey Anonymous! How is it g-going? If you aren't feeling s-so good, if you've got a burden to bear that's t-too much to handle, if you c-can't think you can make it another day...
Come talk to me. I'm here for you Anonymous. Don't s-suffer in s-silence.
W-well dear, it's not as if your mind was designed to be self consistent; you have two nearly independent lobes connected just barely by a highway called the corpus callosum!
But that's enough science lesson for now. Here's my question: why do THINK..
See, I've worked with marriage councilors before. By and large, people know a marriage is failing. They willfully ignore the signs. Luckily, this is an Anonymous board: you have no reason to lie. So saying "think" means you are unsure, it means you are mulling it over, it means maybe there are some warning signs but it hasn't gone full blown fighting yet or maybe it just hasn't gotten so bad you are half out the door.
So, here's my advice: Keep thinking. Share what you are thinking with your partner. Work to make it work. You say you still like her: do you love her? If so, you owe it to yourself to try to make it work.
But if you look inward and don't see that....well, that's also something you need to discuss with her like a mature adult.
Don't put it off dear. If your needs aren't being met, if you feel you'd be happier if things were different, bring it up and try to make it right or...failing that....moving on can be an important process as well.
But of course, before I just shove you off to go talk to your wife, maybe you could describe your situation in greater detail? Then I might be able to be more helpful
I've had something of a premonition that I'm going to die this June. I know that it's just nonsense inside of my head but I can't stop thinking about it either.
W-Wahahaahahhahahaha holy shit h-haha I'm completely out of my God damn fucking MIND! Jesus fucking CHRIST haha my fu-fucking MIND is just FUCKED right now holy shit tutti fruition I'm in a fucking ha-high ass c-condition! Man you gotta get high and ju-jack off! You are a f-faggot like Bob Saget!
Jesus christ what salty faggot wrote this girl's ed article?

Hello!
Uhm I don't know where to start so I'll just get to it. Almost a month ago I was released from the hospital. I was receiving inpatient psychiatric care because of my suicide attempt. My mental health therapist is thinking that I should've been there a little longer. I'm not entirely against the idea but I'm also a little nervous about it. At the moment, I'm seeing my therapist twice a week. It's helping but I'm still far from okay. Would going back to inpatient care really help much?
Jackson Scott
T-the best part is, that's about Alice0. I'm Alice2. S-so the original article is from 20-fucking-08
Inpatient m-may be best for you and is d-definitely very effective and helpful. That s-said, the decision should be on you: do you f-feel that you would be best served by inpatient? If s-so, you should do it.
I see no reason to be nervous though: everyone is there to help you
I'm so sad I went back to self-harming with my old knife and I just can't stop. I used to harm my right leg but now I have bot legs covered in scars but it isn't enough, I feel the need to keep doing it again and again because I'm so sad I'm afraid I might kill myself If I don't keep distracting myself with this.
I've this huge heartache because the person I love, loves me back but doesn't want to be with me anymore because he obsesses about me so much he suffers. We love each other, lived together for seven months, he was my platonic love and I got to meet him and be with him... I've never met anybody like him, we fit like puzzle pieces, our love was so pure and we had such wonderful days...
Then he started to get obsessed, to worry sick If I went out, to get mad if any other boy interacted with me, to feel bad with himself for being mad at me all the time for that kind of silly things. Then he said that I was the center of his life and he can't live like this anymore, and he started to talk about breaking up but he doesn't leave either... We've been one month apart talking everyday about breaking up, hours, me saying I feel like there has to be another way and he crying that it's the only way, both suffering.
I can't stand it anymore, I just can't it hurts so much to see him suffering and to stay here. But I cannot turn my back on him, I cannot stop loving him and thinking about him... He says he wants me out of his life but he spents 8h on the phone with me while I say that we can fix this and he says he wishes he could but he can't do it other way. He doesn't want to.
Because he doesn't want to feel vulnerable anymore. Because he can't have me as the center anymore. Because he doesn't want to stop seeing me or talking to me, but he cannot have me in his life if it's not like "a married couple". I cannot understand what is going on.
My life as been a constant misery, he was the only light. I cannot keep going anymore.
When I was first in there, I did my best to act okay. Which in hindsight is a little ironic because I'm worried if they really can help. It makes me feel like a dork. I'm waiting on my insurance to kick back in but in the meantime my therapist is trying to push me to go to a group for survivors of sexual trauma. I'm trying to think more positive of it all, I don't want to continue troubling everyone.
For a long time, I've felt like I've been trying to subconsciously kill myself. It's not like I have suicidal thoughts, at least I'm not that unfortunate. But at the same time, I feel like I've been sabotaging myself. I don't feel any motivation to work and sometimes I just want to feel empty to the point that I can't feel who I am or what I should be doing. I just want to escape from reality constantly. Thoughts?
Daniel Bennett
It s-sounds like you are both codependent dear. Have you b-been to a councilor or therapist?
Because that's going to be the actual way out of this situation; it's very clear you and him aren't able to resolve it on your own.
I just have suffered so many times before, I've been with terrible people. Before him I was trapped with a person that terrified me so much I was actually afraid for my life when I was around him. I've been abused, raped, hit...
But he, the one I love, he made everything seem worth it. Because he appeared and saved me from everything, gave everything sense, protected me from all my fears and from myself. I'm just so needy and scared and lost... I just wish he would stay.
Wyatt Jackson
Lets see.
I have recently gotten out of the military.
It used to be the limited time i had at home was amazing. I love my life so much at home which made me hate the military even more.
Then i seperated. It is like she gave up. I have to plan everything we do out side the house. She has to be convinced to get off the couch. She has also started gaining weight. I am of a healthy size and eat well and exercise.
Thats one thing i definitely dont know how to bring up. The thing that makes me averse to talking is how she ALWAYS gets so upset in a tough conversation that she totally shuts down. There is no saying anything then. Eventually that response guilts me into either dropping it or flat apologies.
Im loosing my mind.
Also she was crying about never having sex, fair complaint i know. But she tells me she is scared of initiating (has done so maybe 20 times in 5 years).
It seems She has no ambitions that fear and being nervous cant kill. The constant worry also is a huge mood killer.
Chase Martin
They c-can definitely help. That's w-what they are paid for. I w-would DEFINITELY go to group therapy.
Group Therapy + 1 on 1 + medication = 95% success rate. It's v-very important. You aren't t-troubling anyone at all. Never think that.
They are all there to help. They helped me, and I am in the same boat as you. So believe they can help you as well, okay?
I've suggested we both may need therapy but he... he doesn't want to. He says he has to be capable of solving everything at his own or "what is of him then?" like if he was weaker for asking help.
Is this ever going to end?
Juan Scott
There are some things that can be resolved in a comfy /b thread. And there are some things that require professional assistance. If youhavent done so already, make an appointment with a doctor.
He's not capable of solving problems on his own though, that's dumb as shit. He lives in a society; does he go and pave his own roads? Did he teach himself basic math? Fuck no, he had society to help him out. This is no different. So tell the dipshit to fucking suck it up and do it for you.
Nolan White
Hi Reimu! I wish i could go to the beach with you. It snowed here today.
He's so stubborn I'm really scared I may have to leave... but you're right.
Thank you Alice, I'll gather the strength to show him what I've done.
Isaac Taylor
Thank you. I'll keep trying my best at it. I feel dumb for being nervous about it all but I'll keep trying at it. In the meantime I'll keep doing my best to work on the things they taught me during the hospitalization. I feel like I keep talking in circles...
Daniel Ortiz
I'm letting an auto immune kidney disease kill me, thoughts apart from don't do it or why?
Joseph Clark
I'm addicted on it for more than 3 years :)
Oliver Sanders
What's hilarious about it?
Nice bikini Reimu
Matthew Davis
Best of l-luck dear. Here. If you n-need money or just s-someone to talk to, feel f-free to contact me.
No, I haven't seen a therapist. No one knows except a very close friend, and I don't think he understands or sympathizes either, not that I blame him.
I'm not afraid of success either, at least I don't think I am.
As for depression, I don't know. I'm cautious about casually labeling myself with a mental illness that people genuinely suffer greatly from. I don't have the self-harming thoughts or self-depreciation that is commonly associated with that either.
I want to live, but I don't want to make the effort to. Life seems really bleak and whatever happiness I can get seems like it can vanish at any second. I KNOW that there are people worse off than me, so is it really okay for me to feel sad when they're trying so much harder than me?
Anyways, thanks for responding to my post Alice. I'm delighted every time I see your threads.
Ryan Reyes
Alright ~
Chase Robinson
Have you gone on an irl date recently or are you scared any one close would be an inconvenience or something like that?
Elijah Walker
I d-doubt it.
I h-have depression. Severe, intractable clinical depression. Trust m-me, you don't need self harm t-to have depression.
What you have sounds like a symptom of depression known as "anhedonia": the inability to experience pleasure from things that normally give pleasure, such as accomplishments. This tends to make effort not seem worth it, as there is no real reward for it.
Look, I'm not gonna tell you how to lead your life. But happiness IS fleeting. It's a dopamine burst, it's the spark of pleasure from accomplishing someone, from holding someone you love in your arms, from petting a particularly cute puppy. If you aren't getting that from things that used to make you happy or from things you think oughta, you should talk to your doctor.
Yes, it's okay to feel sad. It's not okay to feel guilty because you have it better than others; they have it bad, you have it bad, and you having it bad does nothing to diminish them having it bad.
If you want to live, or more than that, feel alive, then you gotta fight for it. You need support on your front line: That's your friends. You need people who are gonna patch you up: that's your doctors. And you need, most of all, to be willing to speak out and not suffer in silence because you think because others have it worse off that you don't deserve it better!
You deserve to be happy, Anonymous. Don't ever think otherwise.
Honestly I just hope you and Reimu would finally hook up and get married already. Spring time weather is coming, love is in the air and all that.
Jonathan Kelly
i usually try to fail, im not sure why. i think i dislike myself, but i dont know what about myself i dislike. i used to care a lot more about everyone else, and im not sure why that stopped, although sometimes i still care, usually just about a few people tho. being that life is how we make it, i had decided to make life as i desired, however now ive forgotten what that was. i do find some things enjoyable tho, i really enjoy helping others out, helping them achieve their desires is fun.
Ethan Parker
>Honestly I just hope you and Reimu would finally hook up and get married already.
These pics....you feeling like a slutty little slut lately?
Nicholas Bailey
Oh, it's a lot deeper than marriage already. If any of these poor troglodytes ever marries her, they better be in love with me too. Cuz I'm not going anywhere.
Who wouldn't? Only a monster would suggest you two be separated. So are you two bound by a satanic blood ritual or something? What's wrong with marriage?
That's some high tier female mmorpg armor, so I can see you care very much. Now white knight your m'lady and offer your hand in marriage, put that armor to use!
I think marriage is heavily about being loyal to some one and removing some exit routes so people can try to be dedicated to each other without skipping out over insignificant issues, which also helps make a family. But I think it's definitely what ever you make it now. Do you feel the same way about romantic relationships?
Tyler Wright
>she doesn't seem mentally stable enough to give sound advice, in all honesty.
She is definitely mentally stable enough. She's probably the most mentally stable person in this thread.
Evan Johnson
GOD FUCKING DAMNMIT. WORK ON YOU FUCKING DASHES BEFORE YOU COMMENT ON MY COMMAS. YOU PIECE OF SHIT FREAK BITCH.
Julian Foster
Shit nigga, there's been circlejerks for years, when you compare this to the gfur circlejerk, or the MLP circlejerk, yes it's new Well it became a circlejerk, sweetie. Go to church and get a good christian husband, maybe you'll be less nervous!
Owen Hernandez
Stop replying to me, freak.
Juan Edwards
It's not mean to have preferences! Most people would go for Alice, just let me have this GAWD
Alice threads are a staple of Yea Forums Alice is Yea Forums's treasure.
Jaxson Diaz
Hey OP,
I grapple from illusions of grandeur which have been reinforced by my close friends and family. I feel like by not embracing them I'm possibly denying serious aptitudes and self-value and screwing myself over. But by embracing them, I'm worried I'm overlooking my critical faults and slowing vital character building that needs to be done on a foundational level.
Anyway out of the trap? How do I account for my loved ones' biases and gain some serious clarity in my self image?
Alright just keep sneaking into the woods behind the shrine then, I don't want to see you out of a job.
You still haven't answered if you've been on a date or what you think of relationships. I'll stop harping on it but just have a curiosity of people and their relationships.
Grayson White
How tiring does typing a stutter get? Like honestly?
*blinks* I b-believe you mean "still seems something off about it all". Because unless you h-have any real evidence to confirm that hunch, it's j-just that.
>*blinks* I b-believe you mean "still seems something off about it all". Because unless you h-have any real evidence to confirm that hunch, it's j-just that. Oh, it's absolutely just a hunch. That's all one can work with when they don't have all the facts. And I don't have all the facts, since you're anonymous.
A bit more specifically, the mythos surrounding my character used to be pretty substantial and down to earth. But as I've grown up, my mythos has taken a monstrous and inflated life of its own, to the point where 'i' have trouble equating the myth to the 'me' which it's based on.
Why n-not work to slowly make them meet? If you do it over t-the course of, say, a year, then most people w-won't notice as you either seamlessly make a new mythos for yourself or as you reach new heights.
Who knows. Maybe the fact your mythos has inflated larger than yourself will inspire you to catch up to it. Though there is nothing wrong with correcting it back down to earth, if you feel the standard is too high.
Your life is in your hands and no one elses. Define what you want for yourself; don't let others do it for you.
I suppose it's safe to say I've been the one to mellow down while the myth remains up there. Thing is I was kind of monstrous myself before this change, and I'd like to believe I've made important progress with the change. The mythos cant change, it's too far become the defacto truth. Do you think the achievements be worth the anguish I cause folks by getting back to that height? As much as I want them?
That's much better, tbh. Grown women are to be sexualized....children aren't for that.
Isaac Scott
Well, I do agree with you that pedo-bait needs ot be blocked, I wonder where the line of proportions is drawn? What about chibi characters and alternative artstyles of drawing adults?
Chibi is fine. You know loli shit when you see it. They're not drawn to be cute, they're drawn to look specifically like children. The head/body proportions usually give it away.
hurr durr I know loli when I see it, fuck you seriously, censorship is bad
Nolan Sanchez
no they don't, that's a dumb as fuck slippery slope argument. they dont normalize shit they are just pictures. ill spread what I want
Ayden Thompson
fuck you im making a lolithread right now just to spite you
Landon Richardson
Huh. Hey R. Please tell your goons to calm down. We shouldn't be fighting.
Otherwise, I'm trying to find my way. I don't mean to forget everyone in the process. Life is just... trying for lack of a better word. I try not to bite back out of impulse but even when I'm doing nothing at all I'm the devil apparently.
Stop letting hentai warp your mind. There's a reason you guys enjoy illustrations of sexualized children. Dig deep and be honest about it. Don't be fooled.
Robert Miller
i don't enjoy it,i just find your fucked up censorship attitude shitty first amendment bitch.
Owen Collins
literally no name alice has starts with r so i assume you are talking about the discredited dox so fuck off
Owen Nguyen
I personally do not, although I'll occasionally fap to hentai because it's also good multitasking when you're an artist and need a little inspiration.
I said my piece anyway, I'll be off. Good fortunes to you all.
David Campbell
When did I censor anything? I'm just telling people that they shouldn't spread that kind of stuff. I never said ban it or make it illegal. I'm just reminding people to be decent, and telling the ones who like it to be honest with themselves.
And you are within your legal right to do that. But try and think about why you indulge in loli stuff, and what it does for you. Be honest with yourself, and then be honest with who you want to be and who you would be proud to be. Do those two things match up?
Grayson Young
no one knows what you are talking about and alice already left so
Jeremiah Collins
again i dont indulge in it. im gonna spread it just to piss you off thats all.
Adrian Adams
Are you M or F in real life?
Matthew Turner
I am proud to be into lolicon
Julian James
Yeah but if we're understood that was never really a clear issue. Anywho, I wasn't talking to that Alice. I would have said.
You always were a bitch
Joshua Campbell
> (You) >again i dont indulge in it. im gonna spread it just to piss you off thats all. spread it where? I'm almost never on Yea Forums. It's not going to piss me off. It's just going to make you spiral further down a rabbit hole for no reason.
Nah. I know people do that. I think if anything, it's just pissing you off that I'm telling people to not indulge in this. It doesn't anger me when people do it, I just try and remind them that it's sexualization of children, and that it's not an honorable thing.
I've been reading these threads for 2 years at least and I still don't understand half the shit that is going on in them. Do you all know each IRL or something is that what I'm missing?
Adrian Reed
I'm not being a creeper. I'm just not that stupid.
Have fun!
Justin Sanchez
will he be in for easter or what
Brayden Long
No, people just gather and stick around
Isaac Jackson
It's a circle jerk. Take a seat or leave
Kayden Sanders
They're a band of miscreants. I won't say I condone this shit.
Certainly a few personalities though. Then again haven't we all?
Leo Jones
yes, we all live in one big house
Jose Ortiz
>I wont say i condone this shit >TOO PUSSY TO NOT BE ANONYMOUS SUCK SHIT
Leo White
Nice, I appreciate this. Very arousing.
Andrew Sanchez
get the fuck out creeper
Cooper Price
Sadly not. 4th of July yes.
Joshua Evans
I'm anonymous in my own right. Simply following suite would make me a something or someone by brand.
Oh, there's my card. I suppose I should retrieve it.
To preserve your modesty I'll avert my eyes while I do it, of course.
William Cook
get your lighting better, I can't green screen that out!
Robert Bell
Oh this one is very interesting! It leaves a bit of room for interpretation, one could imagine that there are no underwear behind that card and it could increase the arousal factor very much. You are really good at taking these lewd photos.
Hunter Rivera
Is Alice still here?
Oliver Mitchell
Thanks, it'd be embarrassing if you looked...
I don't live there anymore. It's time for a better green screen set up, as soon as I get a decent camera.
Samuel Baker
Alice doesn't post lewd pictures of herself so who gives a fuck if she's here lmao?
When are you going to lose your V-card? also why do I feel like in order to get the dress the deal was you had to take lewd shots in it like this?! And why are you posting lewd shots?? if it's even reimu
William Hill
She went to do a stream, but I'm available. They call me....pudding cups
David Flores
If all you can think about is nudes you have a similar problem as me
Jeremiah Bell
What's the problem? Being a normal heterosexual male?
Jose Collins
That's not normal user. You should be able to have other thoughts.
Ayden Hall
the real problem is thinking this behavior is normal
Jaxon Gomez
Thanks! I'm glad to know I have some skills!
I wonder...
And well, I didn't HAVE to take the shots. I don't think it was expected at all. I'm just like that sometimes.
John Wright
>. I'm just like that sometimes. Just like what? Describe what you get like when you take those pics.
Benjamin Rivera
The actual real problem is gay niggas on my board. Go back to Grindr faqs haha.
Robert Morgan
Totes true
Liam Cox
Hot and bothered! Ready to be lewd. Exhbitionist, I guess?
Christian Gonzalez
How wet do you get if you don't mind my asking?
Levi Sullivan
Damp pantsu. Maybe dripping if I get the right response
