midnight crest Jun 6, 2020, 6:45 AM

#

Did u try dming her?
@keen kestrel yeah I did and just gave her all my advice and told her to not heed the a lot of the others' advice

#

No amount of them saying "I'm going to kill him" is gonna get rid of the stalker man

keen kestrel Jun 6, 2020, 6:46 AM

That's the best you could have done

pallid ember Jun 6, 2020, 7:30 AM

#

i think the best advice is to get the right information and facts from her, as you have, and then get her to talk to both legal and police help

#

you have done the best someone can do outside of being in closely connected with them

#

good job one atleast properly acting

#

compared to the other people in that discord

tropic hound Jun 6, 2020, 10:37 AM

#

@midnight crest there's always childish idiots who say random shit in serious situations, best you can do is ignore them and make sure she also gets actual advice.

#

because as some smart dude once said, who's name I probably forgot, but he was smart trust me

"Don't try arguing with an idiot, because he will bring you down to his level and then crush you w experience"
Or something along those lines

naive skiff Jun 6, 2020, 10:41 AM

I heard that before

midnight crest Jun 6, 2020, 11:08 AM

"Confront your stalker" BRO

"There's a time and place for everything but not now"

midnight crest Jun 6, 2020, 2:25 PM

#

Change your routine to throw off the stalker
"If she's uncomfortable she has to deal with it. There's no need to change her entire routine for something like this" BRO

That's literally advice police would give and you say lmao nah

#

god

#

I'm not even mad anymore

#

I'm disappointed at how they handled the whole situation

#

Someone's safety was at stake

#

They dealt with it like that

#

And to think some of them are the same age as me

#

They're legally adults

#

Bro..... I admit I have no filter and pretty low EQ but goddamn that entire situation made me feel like I had 200EQ

#

Okay end rant. The victim's gonna tell her parents so I hope everything's fine on her end.

"yeah sure BLM is important but there are other more important things"
@midnight crest tbh that's kinda understandable even if not justifiable

#

Asians living in Asia have no reason to relate to or be concerned about a race they may almost never meet in their day to day life

midnight crest Jun 9, 2020, 12:37 PM

#

I get it but when in the context of "that's their own problem" it gets frustrating

#

My sister's in Canada tho

#

She'd see it more than us in Malaysia

#

And tbh as Chinese ppl living in a country that's built upon race privileges and whatnot

#

It's weird that a lot of ppl don't get it while turning around and complaining how we're treated different in our own country

#

I'm not even saying we have it as bad

#

tbh, having a spoiled brother makes me want to snap...

#

my mother yelled at me all because of him throwing a stupid tantrum all cause i took a crap before he even took a bath...

#

he honestly doesn't care about anyone else except for him...

#

and that he always gets what he wants... only for my mom to blame me all because i had to do something urgent for my health

#

all the thoughts in my head now are "should i use fear to make him ensure that i'm no person to mess with?", "should i just abandon him so that he would learn from his mistakes?"

#

i've thought of using violence to condition him into fearing me... using psychological methods to torment him until he says "sorry" to me...

#

she threatened abandonment and punished me by wanting to see me in bed an hour earlier...

#

and it's all his fault...

See, one day he'll loose it all in a day, lying there all weak because of it. But you're stronger, remember that

So have a talk with your mom, and tell her you feel hurt and that this yelling needs to stop

wintry rampart Jun 12, 2020, 6:58 AM

#

indeed... if he retains that spoiled mood in his adulthood, he could end up in much more legal trouble... possibly even jail time for being such a spoiled brat...

crystal halo Jul 2, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

If it's just an uncommon once or twice occurrence, then I think people will forget it.

#

if that is the case, then I'd say you're actually being very considerate of their feelings by trying to better yourself.

crystal halo Jul 2, 2020, 5:53 AM

However, if you think that it is an issue that truly deteriorates your connections with others...well actually bettering yourself would still be a reasonable action.

@tropic hound

None of this is normal, these are the symptoms of a mental illness if symptoms have been prolonging for a long period of time. Thoughts of suicide are certainly NOT normal.

As painful it is to live like this, I am afraid that seeking shallow sympathy and validation from strangers can only take you so far.

If you can go seek help, go seek it at the designated place for the provision of specialist mental health support, otherwise I suggest taking it to people you trust. I am baffled and surprised at the response you got here; people saying that this is normal, or "it will get better in time"

wintry rampart Jul 12, 2020, 10:36 AM

#

to be fairly honest, i do really want to teach my brother how to be right, the hard way

#

as a result of his silly nonsense, which is singing the weeknd, ruining his lyrics into some "f" graded art project made by a preschooler, i got into trouble

#

i was snitched by him into having my mom know that i play my xbox on school days and had her threaten me to cut my education, therapy and everything else cause she thinks that i'm not improving at all or the fact that i'm "playing" the entire day.

#

my mother thinks that stripping my xbox privileges would "make me 5000% more smarter" when it has slight effects on my academics?

#

no wonder why that brother of mine likes to trigger me, maybe i am beginning to experience ptsd

#

of the psychological abuse i have succumbed for years

#

everyday, as he begins to act as if he's becoming more "intimidating", by screaming loud like a fighter jet when i try talking his behaviors out, i feel extremely concerned.

#

will he be like that when he grows up? will he blame me for everything that he's done?

#

i do not like that "get my elder brother in trouble cause i like to" personality of his

#

now, i'll lose control of my xbox, only playing it three days a week

#

and it's all his fault

#

that stupid oaf

#

always trying to get me in trouble

#

for his pleasure

#

one day... he'll learn, the hard way...

#

by losing access to a part of some insurance that i will be expected to receive

#

mom told me to split the insurance money with him once something bad happens.

#

i would not do it. instead, i'll donate his cut to charity

#

at the expense of having him to learn everything, "the hard way"

#

with no money to fund him and his family, he'd learn what happens when he messes with me, too much.

#

i'm scared.

#

why wouldn’t he listen to me?

crystal halo Jul 12, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

that's a lot, damn

#

was he always like that or did something change him?

wintry rampart Jul 12, 2020, 10:38 PM

#

that happened ever since a year ago

#

he would attempt to get me on trouble, either intentionally or unintentionally

#

i still haven't understood his dirty intentions

#

i really never want to put stress on my mother, but i think that he wants that to happen

#

and as a result, i now want to put him in the most trouble for what he's been doing to me.

#

and he deserves it.

#

for a year, i was deceived into thinking that he has forgot about it, realizing that what he was doing was wrong

#

and still, nothing changed.

#

everytime i try to talk him out of causing mayhem, he ignores it.

#

or worsens the situation

#

he would "sing" something that triggers me, and laugh as i get yelled at by mom

#

he has signs of cognitive delay, excess arrogance and a speech delay

#

and his mindset could be "whatever i think is right, i do it, even if it is wrong, according to my brother"

#

i have considered on telling his speech therapist on how defiant and repetitive he is.

#

I can't call this amazing advice, but i think you should tell your mother what he's doing. What i do know, whatever people say, people do change and i really doubt your brother will be like that his entire life.

#

You doing okay @wintry rampart

wintry rampart Jul 15, 2020, 12:41 AM

#

yes, indeed.

#

i just told my brother's speech therapist, and now, my mother is completely aware of it.

wintry rampart Jul 18, 2020, 2:09 AM

#

indeed. i guess that i should ignore his pranks more often.

#

👍

#

that's exactly what my therapist tells me.

#

no

#

Kelpy G was a character from Spongebob.

#

i decided to change the middle initial cause why not?

#

XD

#

ahh...

#

yes... so i guess that i should understand him more.

#

i have been telling his therapists about his weird behaviors rather than yelling at him to stop.

#

is this a better thing to do other than confronting him?

#

indeed. the only things i tell to my mother are how defiant he is

#

or whether his actions caused property damage.

#

yes

#

he was already scolded for kicking the walls of his classroom so hard, the paint fell off

#

his choice of words by far are what triggers me the most

#

cause i unintentionally exposed him to the weeknd years ago, and now, he would sing his songs, on an extremely toddler-ish way.

#

what i mean by "toddler-ish way" is that he would often mispronounce lyrics.

#

exactly.

#

as of now, he is doing it less often

#

rather, he is attempting to get me interested in horror games

#

of course.

#

this is why i always wear earphones whenever i listen to music

#

i assume.

#

i'd rather watch him play and commentate on his gameplay rather than playing the actual game.

#

that is one thing that my therapists tell me too.

#

"he'll grow out of it because he thinks that i do not like being joked on".

#

i'll take that as an additional.

#

sure. thanks for the advice.

then try a therapist and if you can’t talk to a friend you trust

#

what is it called when someone you have a relationship with talks about you first thing they meet acquaintances such as employees at a supermarket or neighbours, talking about how great your relationship is with them and how great you are towards them

but at home they have constant mood swings where they diss you and pull off subtle offensive remarks, and you two constantly bicker and argue. this person does this even when you are very ill and are going through an emergency hospital visit. you have to tolerate this crap while you're breaking down in a panic attack as well, not knowing you'll live or die because you've been chronically ill for a year.

you are stuck with this person because you have nowhere to physically go and if you leave, you'll be homeless.

the reason you are so low and helpless is because this person's negligence is responsible for destroying your career and success, and all that's left now is that you can leech at the cost of your dignity, simultaneously while they alienate you from everyone else pretending nothing is wrong so you can't speak out. if you do speak out, everyone will think you're crazy or the bad person.

you are also socially isolated with no support at all.

Because I'm not the type to become a doctor

I highly dislike it when people think they know me better than I know myself

''this is all for your good! you don't know what's good for you''

As if like being the one whom you are enforcing your unachieved hopes upon is good for me

#

One and a half months left

Why do some people have the sheer audacity to patronise for me on the excuse 'I know you better than you do' is beyond me

#

Even if their choice is plain stupid, I can't speak against it because 'this is good for you'

#

And even if their choice has backfired on themselves, I'll be blamed for not objecting it

#

What the fuck

#

I never saw such stupidity before

#

At least yesterday I got them to admit they were using me as a projection of their unfilled hopes

I've been suspecting this for six years, but never had the exact verbal confirmation

The fact that I know I did well in my online exams for my predicted grades hoping to get a good result

Just wanted to say that my parents expect a lot from me but I don’t have the capabilities of making that possible.I simply can’t do it.Even after disappointing them, they still have loads of expectations from me.I feel like I don’t have the potential to do it.The reason they have high expectations from me was because I used to be a maths genius until now,I don’t study as much now (not because it was too hard for me to handle ).Just wanted to vent out because I’m not sure on what to do.I feel constantly tired,and studying doesn’t stick out to me.I don’t know if I should live up to their expectations or tell them that I’m not capable and my sibling can do much better than me.

I am at a crossroad lol. I want to actually pursue music and be a performer, but as I am studious and the only one in the family who scores high marks in exams, I am forced to go to uni. I cry every now and then because I know my dreams won't come true. I don't even know why I am living now. I am the happiest on stage and nothing compares to the euphoria when I am pouring out my emotions through a song.

civic bronze Aug 21, 2020, 6:39 PM

@bitter cave I know it seems like you're giving up your dream but going to uni doesn't have to mean that 🙂 If you truly are passionate then whatever situation you are place in, I am sure you will be able to find a way to do what you love. And uni is a great place to discover yourself, find people with similar interests and grow your interests. Just after school, I thought i would be spending every waking minute studying and going to lectures. It turned out that over the 4 years I travelled, picked up new hobbies and bagged myself a math degree too. Wherever you end up and whatever you do, music and performing will always be a part of you - just a find a way to keep doing it!

Auri#6577 as ignorant as I may be I don’t think that’s the case (cuz I’ve already had my fair share) it’s that as the oldest in the house I’ve taken up all these expectations and it’s kinda burdening me.I don’t want to be a person someone can expect great out of nor expect nothing out of.

#

Just that I have no idea how to lead my future anymore

just now

#

I don't know which is the worst part: the fact that he has been doing this for more than 10 years, while in full denial, or was that I have to pretend I'm a total ignoramus who haven't gave this a single thought

#

every decision I make that involves him

when I applied to TU delft/Leiden I had to deliberately keep the news out of my dad's earshot

#

I could get a full scholarship there, and even not, I could have easily paid off the student loan by myself if I studied there instead

#

and now I'm in my room, hearing my dad in the other room calling my mom telling her how inconsiderate and ignorant I am

There's a degree I've been eyeing but it's not a stem degree

I know I can take it but I'd have to double major

Since it's not stem

But I just said fuck it and asked if there were programmes for some other degrees as well

Broaden my options a bit

now, she wouldn't accept my apologies via text.

my internet acted like shit as i was about to take a stats quiz. and when i entered the zoom meeting, it was only 10 minutes remaining for the quiz

and i had no idea what to do

when she came home, she scolded me again

and i instantly fired back (not at her), but my isp, by calling them "cunts who do not give a shit about their customers, rather, cunts who give a shit about money, fame and parties" in a facebook comment to its respective page

ik maybe no one is listening but screw it.So basically a few weeks ago cause of the pandemic my school was considering moving to FM for my AS levels but it was a big question.My parents were against it because then i would have to study for that as well as a indian exam that i have to take in jan AND potentially slow down my studying for college.Their argument was "just get it over with".Almost a joke considering my grades.Anyway,Today the decision came and ta da! we're moving to FM.When my mom realized and I was just sitting there trying to absorb it all,she's like "why arent u smiling? didnt u want this" and I just became sad.I go down and tell my grandparents the news and they look like I told them i failed my exams.My grandma started cursing my school and even my classmates for being happy thats it got postponed and I'm just dying now.How can I stay positive about studying and getting more time to do it,seeing my family's reactions? Sorry this was a bit long but I just needed to vent it out ig

celest wedge Sep 23, 2020, 4:19 AM

ohh ok

well focus on making your concepts clear by doing a lot of past papers would be my advice

#

try to do it as if you're in the exam already and then check your mistakes after

#

especially for maths its important to practice concepts and do questions instead of just revising them over and over(which you can get away with in physics sometimes)

#

not sure about ICT since i took comp sci but im guessing its a lot of theory so just strengthen your theoretical knowledge ig

hasty robin Sep 23, 2020, 11:09 AM

Lol owk well good lucky got this 👍🏽 ow and btw how many past papers do you do a day

mild compass Sep 23, 2020, 11:12 AM

#

2 maybe? which is bad. need to get atleast 4 a day

hasty robin Sep 23, 2020, 11:15 AM

#

It depends tho if ur doing paper 2 or 4 (not sure if it’s the same for you)but if it’s p4 then 2 is enough since it’s 2 hrs and a half

mild compass Sep 23, 2020, 11:19 AM

#

A level bro

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:41 AM

#

@hasty robin my advice on IGCSE math is that you understand the base concepts. Literally every question will have one of these concepts with just a random scenario built around it. Best thing about math is you got little to nothing to memorise. Even formulas, if you understand why the formula is written the way it is, you wont need to memorise it

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:44 AM

#

true

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:44 AM

#

math is so hard

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:44 AM

#

Past papers are definitely important, theres an efficient way to solve em tho. If youre already confident with the timing (imo you got way too much time with math so you should be confident with that), you can now just skim through past papers and read through questions, skip the ones you know are easy, when one question catches your eye, solve it, check, continue skimming through, Youll find that you solved like 4 papers in the time it takes to solve one

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:44 AM

#

true

#

past papers are mind blowing

#

but not that hard

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:45 AM

#

math is so hard
@rustic rivet alotta my friends agree but i personally love math.

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:45 AM

#

nice love maths too kinda lol

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:45 AM

#

god i almost died from panic attacks cuz of math

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:45 AM

#

lol

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:45 AM

#

jeez, yeah i get it.

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:46 AM

#

cuz i barely understand math its just a bunch of abc123 crap that became so complicated

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:46 AM

#

practice makes perfect, and as i said, you prolly have some basic concepts missing thats why you think its complicated

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:47 AM

#

ohhh love algebra but hate geometry

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:47 AM

#

same thing happened with me in AS math. The stress was unbearable cuz i just couldnt get it

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:47 AM

#

ive spent months on end doing math and yet here i am with failing grades for math

#

everything else however is a piece of cake

#

just math can DIE i hope ❤️

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:48 AM

so i still have to learn the 300 page textbooks??😢

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:53 AM

#

ur concept should be clear

#

so i still have to learn the 300 page textbooks??😢
@rustic rivet yeah give some time

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:54 AM

#

okay

#

could you guys guide me with what mocks will be like

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:54 AM

#

Youll have your exams in may and june. Thats if you register for them. Youll have to ask at school where you can register for IGCSE exams, ask your friends too. When you register, after a while, youll get something called a statement of entry, which has all your info and your exams. Thats what you use to enter the exams. For studying, youll wanna start by the textbook. Understand everything, ask questions in the channels here, etc. Then you might wanna open past papers and start solving

#

You dont have to worry about mocks now, just start studying the actual content

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

could you guys guide me with what mocks will be like
@rustic rivet listen mock is like basicly they will test u

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

okay about past papers, do i have to do every single year and month past paper i find

#

because thats alot of work

#

for each subject

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:55 AM

#

And for each subject, you can google its syllabus like "Physics 0625 syllabus" and there youll find everything you need to study from the textbook

#

okay about past papers, do i have to do every single year and month past paper i find
@rustic rivet no absolutely not

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

@rustic rivet no absolutely not
@elder coral i have been DYING to hear this im crying

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

for me, getting the info is much more important than solving as many past papers as you can

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

so i dont have to solve EVERY SINGLE past paper right

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

@rustic rivet just solve past paper

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:56 AM

#

ive seen people solve YEARS of papers and they still get mediocre marks. I solved like half that amount but was the top of my class so

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:56 AM

@elder coral beautiful

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:57 AM

@rustic rivet first as i said, study. You cant solve a single paper without studying the content

opaque mica Sep 24, 2020, 8:57 AM

#

Past papers are solely for the purpose of understanding the type of questions

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:57 AM

Worry about the papers when you get to it, trust me

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:57 AM

hmmm

it just feels like i dont have enough time

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:57 AM

@opaque mica this. They wont teach you the content, theyll just show you how youll use the content

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:58 AM

@rustic rivet youll be fine. I know its cliche but just have goals for each week and aim to finsih them

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:58 AM

@mild compass kinda true

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:58 AM

if my papers are in may/june and im completing each subject textbook in 2 weeks would that be okay??

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:58 AM

@mild compass i respectfully disagree lmao. I hate cramming for shit

#

if my papers are in may/june and im completing each subject textbook in 2 weeks would that be okay??
@rustic rivet thats just impossible

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 8:58 AM

#

if my papers are in may/june and im completing each subject textbook in 2 weeks would that be okay??
@rustic rivet understand matter

#

cramming? a whole month for text book junk and the next 2 for understanding which is enough for gcse

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

@rustic rivet thats just impossible
@elder coral learning the textbook???

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 8:59 AM

#

eh i dont wanna be this close to the deadline and im still "understanding"

#

@elder coral learning the textbook???
@rustic rivet you cant learn the textbook for 6 fuckin subjects in 2 weeks bro

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

@rustic rivet you cant learn the textbook for 6 fuckin subjects in 2 weeks bro
@elder coral no i mean 2 weeks per subject-

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

still no lmao

mild compass Sep 24, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

thats true

opaque mica Sep 24, 2020, 9:00 AM

learning the textbook is a big no no for me . thats directly mugging up

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

it dpeneds on the subject but honestly that doesnt sound like fun

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 9:00 AM

#

but its simple and easy-

#

everything except math that is

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 9:01 AM

#

And why do you wanna study each subject on its own like that?

#

you should be studying them all together

#

cuz youll start forgetting the first subject by the time youre at the last one

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

okay interesting point

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 9:02 AM

#

Anyways i gotta dip but also, you said youre in school. Just see what theyre doing cuz theyll have the plan

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 9:02 AM

okay thank you

elder coral Sep 24, 2020, 9:02 AM

@mild compass OH DEFO YES I KNOW
@rustic rivet this is my advice on how to finish the content so first of all do not use the book trustttt me to understand the concept there is a youtube channel that does that then now that you understand the concepts you gotta do repetition of the important concepts of each topic so that you don’t forget it and for that i will send you the website it covers everything important for 0625 physics now when u finish these start doing your past papers

I think you are overthinking; you need to understand how the style of each exam is and what they place the most emphasis on. For example when I did english literature I made sure I understood the basic key themes, etc. of the extract I was gonna do my exam on so I knew what to write and what annotations to make but for first language I memorised all the annotations because of how important they were. Make your own notes with the super important stuff and write in a way YOU understand; these notes can come from wherever (I used z-notes and the book stuff)

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 11:01 AM

#

i just wanna be stress-free and not feel like if i dont completely bury myself under notes and constantly forget taking breaks and taking care of myself only then will i pass

fresh nexus Sep 24, 2020, 11:02 AM

ok make sure you engage in hobbies you like and whenever you feel like you start to slip and make mistakes you stop and have a break

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 11:02 AM

#

yeah i get it!! i make my own notes too but im just stressed because i just look at these fat books and my brain goes "you have to learn each and every single page and then do years and years of past papers 9 times over and over with no breaks"

fresh nexus Sep 24, 2020, 11:03 AM

#

usually igcse was just mostly understanding very key concepts and memorising them; in questions they would change things to make it look scary but it was just the something i had to say from memorisation and elaborate on

rustic rivet Sep 24, 2020, 11:05 AM

all subjs are easy to understand except math

yes very simple ones

#

because i had alot of problems learning math

#

1 was i was naturally bad at math

#

2nd was since IGCSE math is like from grade 9-11 portion, my grade 9 was a BAD experience

#

because we changed teachers SO many times

#

and so i dont think i could understand much

#

then i somehow managed to get till here

idk now

its all a mess in my head

ill currently start first with enterprise then do business then travel because all these subjs are intertwined and have similar info just written from diff perspectives and theyre really easy for me aswell alhamdulillah so im happy about that since i have some grasp SOMEWHERE atleast

also one more thing, if you get really tired of doing a subject and feel like youre starting to burn out start revising for another
