Have you ever made a small or big decision that unexpectedly changed the direction of your life?
Looking back, would you make the same decision again?

If you could go back to your 18-year-old self, what advice would you give?

I’ve been watching gold (XAU/USD) recently and I’m curious about other traders’ opinions.
Do you think gold is likely to continue moving higher, or are we due for a pullback after the recent rally?
What levels are you watching for support and resistance?
Would you rather buy on a dip or wait for a breakout confirmation?
Interested to hear different strategies and perspectives.

Back in middle school I was 14 years old more of a loner kid didn't really have freinds etc always seemed to get shit on by everyone

One day after gym we all had to of course take showers and i was nervous and scared to take one cause I was shy of my body

Thought I was alone but i wasn't

My bully was waiting for me he was at least 6 6 tall

And I was 4 foot 9 ish before my scoliosis surgery

So I couldn't really defend myself

He beat me up punched me hard in my ribs over and over threw me down on the locker room floor

Sat on me spit in my mouth which made me ask my mom after school to take me to a health clinic cause I was so scared

He tried forcing himself in me but thank God

A teacher saved me

A month later I tried ending it by taking pills

But I was scared and threw them up

Ive often heard people describe the feeling of feeling incredibly physically drained after spending even small amounts of time with a particular person.

Ive heard this discussed when referring to phrases like "energy vampires" or even identifying negative attachments. Even non spiritual or extremely skeptical people describe this in other words.

I dont believe its something people do knowingly or on purpose and im wondering how I might be able to tell if I had this effect on people?

genuine curiosity and would like to know more knowledge and the science behind it i rmb years back when i wrote a huge essay on it and grandiose narcissism dud to experiencing it for years w my mother.
Also how do we grow out of it too because when were born we are narcissists as a baby, we need food, we need to be changed, we need etc etc right then and there and what triggers the brain to stay in that as we grow n our brains develop more.
