| Did you know that you can choose to simply not respond at all, even if they have asked you a direct question or given you a direct comment? Ignore him. I give them a blank look with a slightly furrowed brow, as if they are a confusing specimen of starfish I caught a glimpse of. Then I return to what... |

| I think the longer you sit there fantasizing about having sex all the time, the more nervous and "weird" you'll act with girls and it will drive them away. I agree with the poster above: do you have anything against paying for your first experience, since you don't want a relationship anyw... |

| I tolerated my evil/crazy parents for years, but every time they called or I saw them I started getting actual panic attacks. After a while the panic attacks became so bad that I could no longer answer the phone or the door when it was them. Thus I began to feel better over time by not being able to... |

| I've worked at several impossible jobs. The one time I forced myself to stay at work and not resign, I ended up having a nervous breakdown after 3 years there. Then it took even longer to recover from that than from regular stress, so I don't think I should have stayed there. You probably cut your l... |

| You should see a doctor and perhaps take a multivitamin if your diet is limited. Tiredness could be due to depression or to a number of different physical problems. Your doctor will do blood tests and possibly a sleep study to explore various causes. No one can actually diagnose this online. |

Dating becomes an endless cycle:
1. You're tired of feeling alone so you try to date.
2. You get sick and tired of people who are fake, mean or even abusive.
3. You give up all attempts to date and decide to just be alone.
4. Return to step 1 over and over. |

Feeling exhausted all the time and having a loss of interest in things you used to enjoy doing are two classic symptoms of depression. Do you think you might be depressed?
