I'm a fast eater but drinking a lot of water/tea/diet soda with my meal slows me down and helps me feel fuller sooner.

>>182633covering my skin with something like bandages, stickers, masks, or pimple patches has helped me, depending on the area you're picking. i've also learned to just touch the skin instead of picking at it.

I'm still excited about drawing and drilling vocab, but I'm losing steam on reading the novel because I spend so much time copying and looking up kanji.

Trying to get over my social anxiety and imposter syndrome.
One piece of advice that's stuck with me a lot is that if the interaction goes bad, it's not the end of the world. You can either never see them again or they will forget.
And besides, there's no way I can learn to get better at talking without talking first. So I'll just keep doing it. I'm still learning.
I want to become a very confident and self-assured person, so until I am, I'm just going to fake it till I make it.

I feel like before I say anything people will make fun of me, generally look down on me or pick some issue with it, etc.
I'm also trying to learn Japanese and I have a lot of anxiety before I try to speak it to natives in case I make any mistakes or anything, but then I realize there's no way to get better at speaking a language besides speaking it and mistakes are the only way you can learn.
I made a lot of mistakes when trying to learn and speak German, but natives were nice to me and would always kindly correct my mistakes.
Anonymous 204452
>>203890In my experience most Japanese people will just be happy you're trying to learn their language!
I used to use the site/app hinative and it was a friendly place. I stopped using it for a while and now it's all monetized but I'd imagine the community is still the same.

Short-Term Goals
- finish my python tutorials
- start working out
- deep clean my room/the rest of my house
- finish playing the games i started
- build a new pc
>>184572I have agoraphobia nona what helps me get groceries is deciding in advance what store is the least awful to go to and then only getting a few things at once. "I am going to aldis to get eggs, milk, and bread then leaving immediately" or "I am going in to get toilet paper and paper towels and leaving immediately." It was easier to pick things i could carry without a cart to make the interaction quicker while repeating the mantras in my head. Eventually i was able to be more relaxed in the store and idly browse.

I was too scared to post here since I thought I'd fail but I managed to do my meal prepping. Three little omelettes with tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini and sausage. It's just for this week but now I won't have to eat alone in the cafeteria. It was so little work, I don't know why I imagined I'd eat the ingredients raw from the fridge.
My next goals are
1. to finish my damn homework (270 days due, no idea why the professor hasn't failed me but I shouldn't push it)
2. to not skip school for the rest of the month. I'll pick one day with an especially intimidating group project and have a flu then but the rest of it should be smooth sailing, I don't know why it's so hard for me to walk out the door.

Ankisisters…how do you use it? I've been lazy and just click 2 if I don't know a word and 3 if I kinda do. I'm making progress but I don't think it's how you're supposed to do it. I usually add in ~20 new characters every four days from my textbook.

Anonymous 214932
>>214533The main deck I use is the premade core 6k for Japanese. It gives the word, then an example sentence. If I can read the word and know the meaning right away, I press blue/easy. If I had to think about it I press green/regular. If I debated the meaning but got it right or had to read the example sentence to get it right, I press grey/difficult. If I got the reading, meaning, or both wrobg I press red/one more time.
For my homemade decks, I've found being honest with myself gives the best results.
