A very large one. In Clark county, which has over 2/3rds of Nevada's population, 2 years of a foreign language is required to graduate high school but your first chance to take one usually isn't until 8th grade.

So 100% of graduating students in Clark County will have taken a foreign language class, and assuming roughly equal overall population ratios with school age children Nevada would be at 70% minimum if it was based of at graduation. However since the first 8 years it isn't an option you drastically tank the numbers like you mentioned.

Full time is very impressive, since I noticed you have days where you could go through MDD for 6+ hours.

By the way, if you ever get into MDD while talking to someone, in class, etc, can't a person next to you "wake you up"? How easy is it to exit the daydreaming state? I'm guessing it's very easy (uncontrollably) to enter it.

When were you first diagnosed with it? Is it something that comes when you're born? How was your childhood like?

I find the translation into art skills a very fascinating idea. Ever tried to fully utilize your art skills? Perhaps this is a blessing in disguise.

Straight up not accurate. At a private company internship, probably paid, a government internship, nope.

MLS? Isn't that soccer? Soccer is bigger in NA than basketball and hockey? How come we (overseas) hear more about NBA and NHL than MLS?

In EU countries, teaching English as the second language usually starts at 12 or earlier. It's required. The percentage is close to 100%.

Some big 10 teams do well. Esp Ohio State and Michigan.

I find it so bizarre that NFL has 8-9 home games and MLB has 81. That makes no sense to me. I mean I know why it is based on the history... but still it sounds bizarre. I have always thought MLB plays too many games.

Interesting. It seems to be quite popular amongst the younger generations.

Also, I wonder how much soccer has taken from the other sports in terms of eyeballs. It has been growing the past 30 years.

The Univ is doing well too. Aren't they joining the Big 12?

Nice little holiday boost, followed by the Valentines day Sadge

mm! Maladaptive Daydreaming is def separate from anxiety + uncontrollable thoughts. If these thoughts are affecting your day to day life, you should rly get that checked out before it becomes and emergency. These things don’t just go away on their own.

It gave me some loss of appetite but that was only notable for two weeks or so. By a month it wasn’t an issue. Other than that I’ve had no side effects. Can’t speak for anyone else tho.

Bupropion is an antidepressant, yes! There are also psychiatrists who are trying it for ADHD, because it’s link with dopamine.

To be honest, I didn’t feel very different at all. My general level of functioning went up and my anxiety flare ups lessened. I still consider myself a mess and an overthinker LMFAO but it’s much more manageable now. For example, I used to go to college part time because it was all I could handle, but currently I’ve been going full time + online classes and doing well!

I didn’t really document changes like that in detail, but strangely enough it did affect my art skills, which I payed attention to. Not creative thinking, but literally just being able to hold a pencil and translating 3D objects onto paper. Weird stuff, I should look up studies on it.

My home teams (bulls and Hawks play at the same stadium, United center) The bulls have 41 home games per season (963,500 seats) while the black hawks have 41 (963,500) compare that to the bears at soldier field with six home games (only 504,000 seats)

This cloud is sus. Where's carrots... Every third meal I get is carrots.

I did not, maybe that extra information should have been attached to this to give context

Ours was only required in HS for 2 or three years. Can’t recall.

OP is doing engineering, there’s no way it’s unpaid.
