What Do You Do When It's Really Bad?

What keeps me sane is going to the gym.

Even then, I have regular breakdowns where I hide from the world for a week or so, buying myself binge (re)watching TV series. It's a drug which I use to escape this world.

Working out and binge watching TV shows are 2 of my favorite activities in life

I love getting lost in a series, eager to find out what's going to happen next, and becoming so absorbed with the characters and their struggles that I temporarily completely forget about my own problems...and their reality almost feels like mine instead, except I'm experiencing it from the comfort of my bed with a mountain of junk food :D

I look forward to rejoining the gym soon, a few more weeks and I should be fully recovered from surgery.

I take cooking classes and practice the hobby. I tried a different pie crust recipe afterward and it was great. I had a guest visiting the city and made her baked salmon and brussel sprouts, she loved it. I recently made mango-avocado salad for the first time, that's a really clever mix. I also recently made chocolate-chia seed pudding for the first time, also a clever combination, tastes great and has a terrific consistency.

I'm now keeping up with iZombie, Supergirl, The Originals, and Grey's Anatomy. I recently rewatched The Wire. I've been watching a lot of world war II documentaries in the past year. I watch hockey games sometimes. I do feel like starting a major series soon but I'm not sure what. I hear that "Legion" is good.

I have a job where I research fundamental properties of the Galaxy. I get paid to think. My job is one of well over 100 people applied for. It's funded by private philanthropy so even Trump's budget can't eliminate it. In the past few weeks I've reviewed a major paper on the inner Galaxy, I was approached by multiple people at a nearby conference and was asked to travel to both France and the UK, I'm writing a review paper, a proposal for Hubble Telescope time, and collecting some multi-coloured images of important stars to analyze them.

I managed to get in (finally) with a very talented therapist, and have just started seeing her. She said one of my qualities is that I'm exceptionally considerate. She's very good at her job actually. In our second meeting I almost burst into tears in her office. I don't think anybody's ever had that effect on me, and I've seen a lot of therapists.

But mostly I'm pretty miserable. I want to share my time someone. I want to be able to explore the restaurants I read about in travel guides with someone. I read a list today of the top-24 places to eat at in my city and I have no one to try those restaurants with. I want to have someone to go to national parks with, to take day trips to New York and Washington DC with. But I can't. 100% of women say no. There's always an excuse. Let's be honest, they always have a better-looking guy available.

I went to an orthodontist recently and have 1.5 years of invisalign to look forward to. I've lost 70 lbs and have about 10 more pounds to lose before reaching my dream weight. I lather a complex cocktail of poorly-researched chemicals on my genetically inferior hair every morning. And it probably won't matter. There is always a better looking guy available.

I am really hoping you find someone David

Yeah me too, and I hope it's a good relationship too.

My father passed away in 2012 and I wish I could ask him what his experiences were with women. I think he was a somewhat better-looking man than I am, but I'm biased so it's hard to say. He was 6'1, a NW1.5 at 30, and a NW4 at 40, approximately, FWIW. When my sister cleaned out his office years ago she found love letters there, I think from a Swedish woman, might have been multiple women, I'm not sure. Back in the day people used to write handwritten letters. It's interesting that my father kept them.

He ended up with my mother, who was awful to him. She treated him as a combination plumber, chauffeur, and wallet, and in hindsight I'm disgusted just rewatching it in my head. It's to me, the model of a bad relationship.

When I was a kid, and I saw a woman talking to her partner, I would (at least some of the time) assume she was asking him for money. That's so fucked up. But that was the model I had.

No, I have erectile problems and thus I assume I'm at risk of severe propecia side effects. I take low-dose RU instead which should be adequate.

You know some men take v**** for recreational purposes (basically to stay hard of long time)..it's not just 'old' guys.
Did you ever try it?

Yup.

The most important sex organ, however, is the brain.

As soon as discovered I was thinning and receding I really hit the gym hard.

I became obsessed with getting a great body. It's been a long haul as I was pretty skinny but I persisted and achieved some good results..

Physical training definitely helps keep your mind off the balding.You feel good after..

I decided I wasn't going to go down without a fight. So that ment having nice clothes,nice car a decent body. All these are dirversions but helped me..

I also decided to work two jobs to save good money to pay for Hair transplants and that was the game changer for me..

So I would suggest for you to devise a game plan and stick to it and tackle this disease front on..

You might just be happy with yourself in a few years..

Remember it's a long term condition you need a long term plan. Good luck champ.

I don't mean this post to sound dirty but just sharing what I know. I took it a few times out of performance anxiety with girls I've never been before. I know friends that take it when they don't even need it, they basically just take it if they wanna pull a 'marathon' and go for a few numbers in a row, it certainly helps you stay erect after finishing your business. It can get a bit addictive and some guys might think they need it even when they don't. For me the main benefit was if I wanted to go more than once in a row, v**** really helped me with that, otherwise for just one time I would say it's not really needed.

You're a real bloody catch.

I don't say this in a mean way but It really goes to show how important looks and social skills are. I mean, if you have all that, it really highlights the importance of the other two if you aren't already good with women.

Hope you can improve those other areas.

I take it as well. It stops me going soft when changing positions or when tired. Plus, sometimes it just feels harder.

I don't use it all the time but I do when I want a really good night of sex.

You need a girlfriend to get a girlfriend, she will validate you and people will see you in a different light. Very common effect, some guys in the past even used to do the engagement ring trick.
