I , 24F , am working in corporate for 2 yrs now. After 6 months of me getting my job my father had brain stroke and is paralyzed. I have to take up the responsibility of the entire household. I wake up everyday thinking when will my life go back to the time i was carefree. I was a free spirit with big dreams but for the last 1.5 yrs i have almost forgotten myself,( what i want what makes me happy). I am just living with the hope that oneday i can selfishly think only for myself.

But i dont know how long can i go on. The thought of death feels peaceful ✌️ For how long will ...... Can i give up on life !!!!

I can understand english but while speaking I just get out of words. So I wanna improve this issue. Can someone suggest me the way or course. Free or paid whatever it is. Thank You

In the last few years, I've seen willpower, savings and health fade away in an insidious and seemingly innocuous manner. I'd manage to stay months without eating out, then all it takes is one bad day. . . Fair enough, it's a me problem. But should restaurent food really be this accessible.

I feel like an addict getting their next hit everytime I order from one of these sites. Guilt. Guilt. And more Guilt.

It's not only that, it's taken the joy out of food. I remember a few years ago eating something special like biryani or a kebab was actually something I'd look forward to for days. Now, it's all so boring because I can have it anytime.

Not to mention the whole experience of eating out. There is just no incentive anymore. That's making me sad.

I understand the convenience of these apps. They're very useful for the elderly and all. But they've become a real problem. It's already hard to maintain a healthy weight, and this just doesn't make it easier. I really want to quit ordering out.

Thanks to grocery delivery, I no longer plan or make a list of things I actually need because I can just buy whatever whenever. These microtransactions on a daily basis are like leaky faucets to my money. I hate it. But it's so hard to quit.

I know I'm complaining but, am I the only one who feels this way? Has anyone successfully quit using these apps?

Started trading and investing when I was 17, with some spare money i had saved(30k) made lots of profit from that seeing that dad game me another 2L for investing which I turned duble in a year and made 1L from orignal investment of 30k.

Was wondering i should sell some of the profit to buy something or instead keep on investing

I used to believe that social media was the reason I procrastinated and wasted so much time, but with time I realized that it was my lack of discipline and purpose that kept me in this time-wasting loop. What are your thoughts on this?

Café Akasa

my childhood was devastating by being introvert, no able to talk to people. from 1st standard itself i was a exceptional student, passed my 10th with 95 percentage [cbse]. i had a rare disease in my feet and over my lower body in my 1st satndard itself, it was actually a skin disease, due to these i had to consume certain tablets which increased my weight indirectly. now you know that my entire childhood i was overweight. overweight affected my mental health and my physical health too, i was not good in look nor in sports, everyone were good. after passing out from school, went to college, where i faced discrimination based on my financial condition, i couldnt dance , i couldnt talk, and eventually i lost my interest in studies, in my 11th and 12th my dad suffered 2 consecutive major accidents which led to major operations to him. when i gave my neet exam in 2023, i scored only 158 out of 720, perhaps i told my parents lie that i scored 400 and if they give me another chance i will score more. eventually i took drop for neet 2024, now writing this i have only 12 days left for neet 2024. i started my preparation by online classes because i didnt wanted to put burden of tuiton fees on my parents, my preparation was going well but for some reasons my parents had to stay in native place leaving me alone at home to study. during this i suffered a lot of mental problems with me, so my preperations didnt go well. i have a lot of backlog. when my parents call me asking how much i am getting in tests, i lie them telling that i got 650/720 while i never gave any test due to syllabus incompletion. my life is filled with lies, lies, lies. why did god give me so devastating life. what should i do now????

Yeh khulta hi nahi hai

I would like to ask this community to share your opinion regarding purchasing a home in the future.

1. Will you buy it?

a) If yes - Why? At what age will you buy? In which Tier city

b) If no - Why? ( Reason will be helpful)

If someone has already purchased a home, please share your opinion with the ones who have purchased it yet. Should we buy or not? How much money should we put into buying a house? Which tier city? Installments? What age should we buy at?

This post will be helpful for most of the members of this community too, whether now or in future. Kindly share your thoughts and experiences.

posting this for those two people who commented on the last post of mine that they would like to read some more. lol

PS: I've tried LinkedIn its not working i need to do cold calling or emails.

Scam Alert: Just made a purchase from this website and the quality is the worst! The print quality is especially terrible. On top of that, their customer support is non-existent – not a single response to my messages, emails, or phone calls in the past three days. Avoid ordering from this website at all costs, they're nothing but scammers.

India has always had relatively hot and humid summers but for the past few years it's gotten unbearable. I'm fortunate enough to live in an area with lots of trees and a home with air conditioning but even the richest of people won't be able to avoid the heat. Can't even go out nowadays bc when it's not scorching hot it's already dark. global warming is a bigger problem than we realise and yet it's not as mainstream as some stupid influencers fighting

How I Lost My Extroverted Self to the Pandemic: Seeking Advice and Shared Experiences

I've always identified as an extrovert. Before the pandemic, I thrived in social settings—I could strike up a conversation with anyone and easily adapt to different groups, much like water taking the shape of its container. But things took a drastic turn after the lockdowns began.

During the pandemic, I lost my job and found myself completely isolated, locked away at home with nothing much to do. This period of isolation slowly pushed me away from people, reshaping my social habits and my comfort with interactions. Eventually, I landed a new job and moved to a new city, but the old me—who could effortlessly mingle and smile—seems to have been left behind.

Now, I find it challenging to engage with people. Some days, I even realize I've forgotten how to smile. Deep down, I desperately want to break out of this shell and rediscover my extroverted side, but I'm unsure how to go about it.

Has anyone else here experienced something similar? How did you manage to regain your confidence in social settings? Any advice or personal stories would be greatly appreciated as I navigate this journey back to my old self.

Father Profile:

He is in his 50s and lives an extremely simple lifestyle.

I don't think fancy gadgets are his cup of tea, not because he doesn't know how to use them. He just doesn't think they are necessary. I got him a smartwatch last year. He used it for like a month. He doesn't use a wallet. No belts, wallets or shirts. He has plenty. Doesn't use them. Just gives them off to other people.

I had shortlisted either a Kindle (since he likes reading books) or a Saregama Carvaan Radio (since he likes old songs).

I'd deeply appreciate some ideas from you guys as well. Thank you!
