We Quit Cigarettes

I do agree in his case it’s become a bit of an obsession or whatever but most of the tests themselves were designed by professionals. So in that sense they are “legit” but like you said, most also are not designed to be taken recreationally and are designed to be taken and interpreted by a professional. Most of them even say that. That it’s just for education or fun and not a real diagnosis. So Carp is definitely worrying himself for nothing and needs to find a new hobby. And this is coming from someone who is constantly worrying and has been a bit of a hypochondriac myself on other things before.

A valetudinarian can also be "a person who is unduly anxious about their health", according to Google.

You’re definitely that!

Whatever.
People like Carp shouldn't be allowed to play with them.

I can take it and not think twice about it.
Carp gets stuck.
This getting stuck is not good.

Virginia has its first person. Not close to here though

I added a disclaimer in my assessment thread, saying that the tests are for fun.

I fell asleep around 2 AM, and now I'm awake, and I can't fall back asleep.

You will never have a normalish sleep pattern if you don't get off of the screens.

But I wanna feel like a professional

Get well, then go to school.

But first force yourself to go for a walk. Look, I know what this is like. I struggled with depression most of my life and still have to fight it off once in a while. For me it is an addiction. For some it can be the result of hormonal imbalances or even organic brain malfunction, but for all of us it is a thing that can be fought and can only be fought by the very person under its attack. Others can come alongside and offer support but the only person who can slay your personal dragon is you. It is in the act of slaying that dragon that you heal yourself. Being the dragonslayer--becoming the dragonslayer--this becoming IS the act that slays the dragon.

It is incredibly difficult I know, yet you are the man (the only man) who can do this thing. The brain becomes addicted to that dark forest the dragon has cast you into, but the forest of hateful, dead trees, is entirely subject to you. You can change it to a healthy, beautiful, light-filled elven glade full of friends and feasting. It is after all, made up of your very changeable neuronal patterns. Every thought that blows through that forest alters it in some way. Make those ways good. Choose. Choose the good even though everything in you both hates and longs for the pain. You can do this. I did it and you can and must do it too, for your life.

You see, people who think they long for death, they're really longing for an escape from the death they're living in. You can beat this, but to do that you must fight it. There is no way around it--you have to battle your way through, and sooner or later you will. Do it sooner. Choose life--real life, not some morose, mere existence. It is in your hands to do this.

Same here. We just took one not looking ng ago about not seeing certain colors. Think I got 3 wrong, but I didn't like the 3 colors anyways so glad I can't see them right

Oh yeah, no, I totally agree on that part. I’m just saying the the tests themselves are real aha but yeah carp should stop playing! Not good for him.

Also for the record, the one from last night doesn’t actually mean intellect or anything but just openness to experiences so you’re just conventional. which is normal I think.
