I have trouble concentrating when I read and tend to fall asleep every time I pick up a book to study. Every Time! I do read some of it but I get distracted and start to daydream and fantisize about stuff and then dose off. This is really hurting my studies and grades. Can Anyone give me any advice as to concentrate more as I read? I think a lot about stupid stuff and especially sex. This is not a joke. I'm a guy who is a virgin. Could this be my problem? Honest and serious advice please.

I had surgery over four years ago, and I am now getting a great deal of pain, discomfort, and belching. I have been told that I should have surgery again, to remove the little (gallbladder) pouch that was left after surgery. What's up with that? I can't even eat anymore, because it's too painful, and the burping is very embarrassing!

I've been using nuvaring for the past 4 months. Ever since I started using it I haven't been having an orgasm as much. I have one once every 2-3 weeks. I hate it. Can the nuvaring have an affect on this?? has anyone experienced this with nuvaring, birthcontrol or with any type of contraceptive???

sister in law's wedding next weekend and my dress won't fit! I am a mom of 5 and just stopped nursing my youngest a few months ago. I know the weight will come off as I exercise and watch what I eat but I need some help RIGHT NOW! It's ok if it's just water, if it comes right back the week after, whatever, I will do what I have to do after the wedding, the right way, but for right now, I need some HONEST help! I'm not looking for a miracle cure just something you know might help get rid of some of the belly bulge? Please.

So, I had to take a drug test on thursday for employment. Well, I smoke pot pretty much daily...and I stopped when I found out I had to take the test. I was clean for a week and a half...ONLY drank water and cranberry juice all week, took b-12 vitamins, goldenseal root pills AND bought body flush to drink that day (the 32 oz. "extra strength" one...and it was fcking nasty. lol) and continued to drink water that day...and took the test.

What do you all think? Pass or fail?



I'm a little worried. But, I'll be finding out the results Monday - - and if I pass...I'm guaranteed the job...starting TUESDAY!

(which means I'll be screwing over my current job, since I'm a full timer. haha)
I know, I know...I shouldn't be smoking...but sh*t happens. So, if you don't like drugs, ignore this post. I'm looking for serious opinions here.
Thanks guys! <3

My friend has had trouble with his teeth for some time now. He cannot seem to get access to a local NHS dentist, although he is entitled. It doesn't seem fair that he would have to travel over 100 miles for basic/decent treatment, and is consequently leaving it to fate.

They look at me as if I am drug seeking which I am not I really need the help right now.. I do have a history of mental illness and have previously been medicated for Bipolar and mood disorder. Thanks for any info..

I'm a late boomer and only like 5'2". I'm expected to grow maybe 10 more inches. How much sleep do I need to make sure I get those inches. I drink lots of milk and eat lots of cereal. I often have fool dinners. Eat school lunch, but I have to leave the house at like 6:30 for school so I miss breakfast.

Senario: girlfriends mother extreemly strict about boyfriends. She wont have it, but only 'just as friends'. Mother doesn't know of our superb on going relationship. I swear, and thats perfectly fine by her. But its a big no-no for mother. I think her mother checked out my g.f.'s phone, and emails, and found out bout us, & inevitably copped abit of swearing. Well, i dont know what has happened, but i presume that cuz g.f. sent me an email (in caps) "dont ever email me again". I think she's upset (and upset heaps). So obviously i think her mother just found out. The ******* stupid ******* woman got her **** into what she shouldn't have. So, talking to g.f. is gonna be hard--she never picks up her phone. What should i do? I DONT WANTA LOOSE HER

Hey, i was just wondering if it would be alright to just drink protein shakes instead of eating regular breakfast and lunch, and then in the evening eat a light meal like a salad or some fruit to get the minerals and vitamins that are not present in the protein shake.?

I heard this idea on the show Nip\Tuck when the young doctor said that the key to his extremely muscular and fit physique is not eating food and just drinking shakes and light meal in the evening....and working out of course.
