Health - 4 September 2006

I will be 54 this month. I have a job I took when I was desparate after being laid off a few years ago. They work me to death for very little money, 1/2 of what I used to make. I have applied for jobs and gotten some interviews, but no interest. I am over qualified for the job I have, and it sometimes feels that I am being insulted daily.I am certainly treated like a whipping boy and am made to suffer when others need to relieve stress and I am handy. For a while, I could supress how hurt I feel about this, but is now becoming more and more difficult to continue like this everyday. I spend too many hours a work, and have neglected my social and personnal life. I am divorced with no children and my parents have both passed away more than 10 years ago.

I tried attending university extension classes at night, and I learned a lot, but have not made any friends.

I feel really isolated and I am really beginning to seriously hate myself. I feel like committing suicide.

Hello, I thought I'd never pick up this habit. My dad did, and he quit when I was a child. I always said I would never do this.. but then I turned 19, was looking for a job and got one at a gas station. I never even hardly payed attention to cigs until then. I didnt notice how many people did it.. a few of my friends did. But I was curious to just try it.. I got a pack of camel silvers and never looked back. They are perfect to take a break from work when I'm tired of checking people out. They are perfect for when you're trying to waste a few minutes but dont want to stand around doing nothing.. you smoke a cig. But now after being about 6 months into this.. I want to stop. My problem? I sell them all day long at work, every time I try to kick the habit, I go to work.. sell them which makes me really want one. I cant quit my job because of this bad decision of mine. What can I do? What are some tips??

I was raped when i was 14 and i have never fully gotten over it. I am 19 years old now and i have gone and seen someone so that i can get help. The people that did this to me were never locked up due to the fact that the police didn't have enough evidence.
I just don't think that i can live anymore, i see the men that did this to me all the time please some one help me before i do something that i might not live to regret

I went to a party thinking I was just going there to socialize. But, a friend of mine became hyper after having something to drink decided to start jabbing at me. Then someone else tried to pick me up. I got squeezed in the process. I just feel some pain around my right rib cage every day .

I sleep at 10:30p.m., all tired, but when I get on the bed, I feel totally awake. I slowly get tired and fall asleep when it's 3-5 a.m. and wake at 12. School is starting, and if I continue this I'll be late! I'm not supposed to take pills- what should I do?

I want to run a 5K next year. I am overweight, very out of shape and I have asthma. I am not letting this stop me though! I have been walking a lot lately on my treadmill on all inclines up to 10.0 and just recently started jogging short distances at the lowest incline. If anyone is coming from a situation like mine do you mind offering some advice? I am eating healthier and working out daily. This is like my dream to run a 5K. Please do not post LONG articles from other websites. Rather just post the website link if you think its pertinent to what I am asking. Also what are some good stretches pre-workout? THANKS!

I need to know if you are fully strip searched for having suicidal thoughts. And I need to know if you take showers together or seperately.
