  • Is moving the trachea in my throat bad?

    Often I get this urge to move the trachea in my throat. I don't know how I do it and I don't know how to describe it, but I am able to do something with my throat that makes the trachea move without having to touch my throat.

    I was wondering if I'm doing any damages by doing this? And if so, how can I stop it? It's a strange urge and I don't realise I'm doing it until after I had shifted it a couple of times. How can I stop this?

  • How to get rid of maggots?

    I've tried everything sources on Google has said to try, from pouring water down bleach on them, pouring salt on them, and to spraying them with an ant killer spray, but nothing seems to kill them. They are all on the kitchen floor and I saw a few in my brother's room (which is connected to the kitchen).

    I've tried sweeping them up, but when I came back from dumping them outside there were more of them. It was like I haven't even swept them up. How do I get rid of maggots?

  • Will the night shift work for me?

    I usually wake up at around 1pm and go to sleep at 4-5am, and when I try to sleep early I am filled with small panic attacks for what seems like no reason. Will the night shift work for me? Or should I stick with the day shift?

  • How to cook Bacon?

    My mom would be able to use one pack of bacon and they'll be these little pieces, yet it'll be enough for all four of us. When I try making bacon, I use the whole pack too and it'll barely be enough for two people. What am I doing wrong? I don't know if I'm tearing the uncooked pieces too small or too big. Help?

  • Am I an Agnostic or a Deist?

    I believe that there is a God, but I don't believe in the bible. I believe that there is a God out there, I just don't believe in a book written by man. I've posted this on Whisper and have gotten mixed responses. Some say I'm an Agnostic, while those defending me against those people say I'm either an Atheist or Deist. I know I'm not an Atheist as I believe there is a God, but I'm confused as to whether I'm an Deist or Agnostic. This is the first time I'm hearing about these two things.

  • What are some ways to address these characters?

    I'm working on a story where a few characters meet their alternative selves from another dimension and I'm having trouble with writing them when they're in the same scene. I'd write "the other boy" or "the other *insert name*" and I feel that calling them that is getting repetitive in the chapter I'm working on. What are some other ways to address them when they're in the same scenes? Please and thank you for answering!

  • What's a good job for someone with an Anxiety Disorder?

    I've been having this anxiety disorder since I was little, but have always thought it was just shyness. It wasn't until late last year that I realized I had an anxiety disorder. I really need a job, but when I got my first job it was too much for me and I had to quit after 2 weeks; it was at a Wal-mart and that's when I realized I had an anxiety disorder.

    What are some jobs that'd be good for someone with anxiety disorder? I experience self-doubt, perfectionism, flashbacks, panic, self-consciousness, Stage Fright, Chronic Indigestion, Muscle Tension, Irritational Fear, sleep problems, and excessive worry on a daily basis; what jobs could possibly be good for me?

  • Which order should I watch all the Marvel movies?

    I seriously want to watch all the Marvel movies, but I feel that there's a certain order I should watch them in. And I'm not talking about release date orders, I'm talking about storyline order, if that makes any sense. So, what order do you guys think the list should be in?

  • How to show my character is black without using colors?

    My pencil sharper is cheap and old and I can't buy a new and better one, so my color pencils aren't usable. My character has chocolate brown skin, but I'm not able to show this without using color, how do I show this by using a regular mechanical pencil? My drawings are in the style of anime, so I don't know if that will work.

    At the side of her I put her name and age along with the color of her skin, hair, and eyes, will this be enough? Please and thank you for answering.

  • Does it sound like I have social anxiety?

    I've always been shy, but lately I'm starting to wonder if this is more than just being shy. Every time I'm out of the house I never make eye contact with anyone, if I'm talking to someone my voice would never go above a whisper. I feel so awkward and out of place when dealing with other people and would always second guess my words before I actually say them. And I'd get small panic attacks when I know I'll have to be around other people.

    The reason why I doubt I have social anxiety is because I'm pretty normal around family. I can talk easily to them and am usually being just me, but the moment I meet new people I get quiet and try to blend into the background. I figured I was just a shy person.

    Does this sound like I have social anxiety? Please and thank you for answering.

  • Rat problem, who's to blame?

    My sister and I share a room together, the problem with this is that my sister is a slob. She leaves her clothes all over the floor and under her bed, she places her belongings that aren't clothes anywhere she feels like (her hair ties and old fast food cups are constantly found in the couch), and she leaves trash everywhere.

    I don't want to clean up her mess, because she's 21 and I feel that cleaning up after her won't teach her to clean up after herself.

    Just last night I saw a mice crawling out of one of the cups she left on the floor and I yelled at her that this was her fault, but she believes that it's my fault for never sweeping the room after she cleans up, which happens rarely. I feel that since it's her mess, she should be the one to sweep the room.

    She has been taking her fast food trash to the kitchen trash for the past few weeks, but she leaves the trash to sit on the floor for about a day before she throws it away.

    Because all this, I say she's the one at fault for our rat problem. Am I right to think this?

  • What are considered my basics in college?

    I'm looking through the classes of a community college I want to go to and I'm wondering what exactly are my basics. I see English and Math and the rest of the subjects I took through my school years, but I also see College Learning Skills. Here's what the course description for College Learning Skills says:

    "This course is for students who wish to extend their learning skills for academic or career programs. Individuals study and practice are provided in reading, study skills, and composition. Students may enroll in up to three different sections of CLS during one semester."

    Is this what my basics are? I check this as my classes I want and then choose the basics I want? My sister told me I have to take a test for each subject and if I fail one (or more) that I'll be put into the classes that I had failed the test on. If there are more than three basic subjects then which three should I start with?

    And what should I tell the people at the college? That I want to take my basics and they'll help me set everything up?

    Is there anything I should know before I call them? Please and thank you for answering.

  • I don't see myself getting another job, help?

    I have social anxiety to the max. I can't talk to other people no matter how much I try to force myself and am incredibly self-conscious. I tried having a job at Walmart and while the pay was good I felt horrible. I felt lost unless someone gave me a specific instruction and at a work place like this the bosses weren't around to tell me what to do after I finished doing a task. It feels like I can't do anything without being constantly told what to do.

    My mom doesn't understand and refuse to believe I have social anxiety and is pressuring me to get another job, but I see myself blowing this one like I did the one at Walmart. The only job I can see myself doing is making comics and selling them online like other webcomic authors do. I'm more normal on the Internet than in reality, I can talk normally to people without any of the fears or struggles I have when talking to someone face to face.

    Is this just a pipe dream, am I going to have to force myself to function normally at work or will I eventually find a job that'll be good for me? And what job is that for a person with social anxiety?

    Please and thank you for answering.

  • From feeling calm and excited to suddenly panicking, what's happening to me?

    I am going to start working at a Wal-mart and when I got the call for an interview a few days ago I was calm and excited, but now on the day before I start working I feel trapped; I just want to break down at cry. I never go outside, I'm always in the house on my phone or watching TV. Is this why I feel so panicked?

    But why am I feeling this now when only yesterday I was excited to start working? What should I do about this?
