Never put all your money into one investment. Especially in a 3rd world country.  I would suggest a REIT, which are very affordable these days. Along with a diverse investment portfolio.

This seems to be mostly effecting children and teenagers. But there are simple things you can do. Spray regular deet in the corners of your room will kill any mosquitos hiding for example.

Go home. Many people develop mental issues while traveling but they resolve as soon as they return home.

Otherwise find a psychologist it will be cheaper than back in your home too.

And why is that?. Tell us the problems you think Thai banks have had over the past decade (the answer is zero, but maybe you have secret information you'd like to share)

There has been many cases of Bank employees stealing money or running investment scams. If the banks is going to reimburse a farang is questionable.

Another issue is if you plan to retire in Thailand when will you take that money out to use it?  You will die and the bank will keep it.

What are you allergic to?

Like i am going to deposit 800,000 baht for a retirement visa in a Thai bank. They are out of their mind. 

Why aren't there international banks allowed in Thailand?

Probably the biggest load of rubbish I have ever read in my life, you really need to be more selective when  (mis)"informing" yourself

How much do you smoke a day?

"Common marijuana psychosis symptoms are paranoid delusions, suspiciousness, and a sense of grandiosity. Other potential symptoms include hallucinations, dissociation or a feeling of detachment and unreality, disorganized and disturbed thoughts, inappropriate emotional responses, and unusual changes in behavior."

Marijuana works by causing dissociation. This is the high that people enjoy so much. It takes you away from yourself. This is why it can cause some pain relief. So if someone is already suffering from psychosis or mental problems marijuana will make it worse.

The other issue in Thailand is that many people already have magical  thinking. They already have strange ideas that do not follow logic. Superstition, religious idealism.

So people making fun of the story i think are wrong. And this is typical of addicts, they are deluded about the true effects of the drug they are on.

I fell and damages the gum on my front tooth. About 1/4".  It is not sensitive but if i don't brush there often enough it becomes full of bacteria.  I am a bit confused if i need a gum graft or not?  Will it just get worse over time? It has been about a year 1-1/2 and no change.

Baclofen is more effective for heavy drinkers. Heavy drinkers don't need a spiritual solution. However, alcoholics do need a spiritual solution. 

 

I think most alcoholics or drug addicts have psychological. problems. Often serious mental illnesses. Either way they are self treating the pain and become addicted. So it makes sense to go to a Psychologist and spend some money on therapy. People suffer trauma or abuse by their parents when growing up.

AA is like self help psychology : people will hear about the abuse others have suffered and realize they have too. Abuse is not only physical but psychological such as tough love.

Baclofen suppresses the desire for alcohol and has cured many people. Check the Drink too much Sub.

One drink a day will lead to alcoholism for many people. So it is not a safe practice at all.

I first discovered the bucket and pail over 40 years ago on my first trip to Thailand and never used toilet paper in my home or Thailand since. The bum gun is a relatively newer invention.

A rather stupid invention. I just imagine these farang shooting dingle berries all over the place.

You can be sure that billions of people in India, Bangladesh and Pakistan do NOT use the spray like this. The spray is useful because you can wash you other hand with one hand instead of the sink which will get filled with dingle berries.
