I'm researching the subject of eating disorders that arise in older women, especially bulimia (but including others). I would be interested to hear from people who are in this position or who have overcome a eating disorder that began when they were 35+. If it happened to you or someone you know, can you tell me what you think the cuases were, and how did you deal with it? What support did you have? Where did you turn? If you've now overcome it, what is life like for you?

Also, do you know anything about why eating disorders start in older people, especially as they usually associated with the pressures that younger people are under?

If you'd be happy for me to ask you more questions in private please leave your contact details.

Hi , At times I feel I cant wake up from my sleep . Like I cant move my hands or anything . As if I am literally froze and I just cant get out of that . But , also I am aware of that . It doesnt happen in deep sleep I think becasue it happens around waking up time ....or maybe an hour before waking up .

Also sometimes while I am gonna wake up after a dream I kinda wonder if that was a dream or real thing ad when I awake I know it was a dream . But the confusion arises after dreaming stuffs ...

Can anyoe enlighten me about this ? Have you experienced anything similar ?

My friend shaved his uh...member(haha) that was the first time he did in his 20 year life span. Being a girl...I know that sometimes razor bumps can get you, especially the first time you shave, especially with thick, dark, coarse hair. Well its been a couple weeks and he still has the bumps aparently. I told him to use this razor bump solution, and i don't think he used it as much as he should have, but still, its been a couple weeks. When will his bumps go away...hahaha....?

I was really amazed at the number of parents who put their kids in the cot with a bottle of juice or cordial. It will rot their teeth!!
NEVER PUT A CHILD TO SLEEP WITH A BOTTLE OR food etc!!!!
when we sleep the saliva in our mouth decreases. this means our mouth doesnt have as much protection against bacteria that causes decay. if you put you child to sleep with food/ bottle (juice,cordial etc) everything just sits in the mouth and doesnt do the teeth any good. unless you want ur child to have rotten teeth i would suggest not doing this. the only thing that they should take to bed with them is a bottle of water. WATER! with flouride.
ok im done having my winge! goodnight :-)

Is it natural to feel tired and listless all the time? I am puzzled as to why I feel like this. I do and try to execise each day but sometimes it is such not possible. Under doctors supervision, but he doesn't think tiredness is linked to my heart condition. Have had blood tests for anemia but that was all clear. Quite concerned as I see to have no quality of life these days. Not feeling sorry for myself would just like to know what is happening to me
