A large church group (it will be women and men) asked me to give a twenty-minute talk...sharing my experience with my mental illness. (I'm bipolar, but it will be on mental health in general.) Obviously it can't be insulting, but needs to help focus them on the important things I want to share, following the opening. I just want to relax them up a bit ... help get past some of the outdated stigmas associated with mental illness.

Any other tips or thoughts on this???

Thanks for your thoughts and time!

Is dry eyes a common or rare symptom? I have had fibromyalgia for nearly 5 years now (ok, been diagnosed for 5 years, had it my whole life), but just recently started getting pains in my right eye. My mom, who also has fibromyalgia, says it's dry eye and she gets it too. Anyone else?

I am seeing my eye doctor today.

i don't mean sour, or expired milk, worse than that. i mean when i drank this the taste was the most horrific thing i've ever experienced, plus it was like bubbly

two hours later i had a sore throat, the next morning i had a 102 degree fever, and now i still have a fever and every part of my body hurts. no stomach problems at all though, so its not food poisoning

Say, You have confronted this person, given this person more chances then you should have, but they say they want to change but keep on being the same way. You have accepted that they will never change, they are just mentally ill and there is nothing you can do.. But the emotional scars this person left was at such a young age that you have grown as habit to believe and accept as truth. And no matter what you do this pain still persists and ppl all around turn into this parent and patronize you (in personality and actions)not literally, duh.
How do you get over this even when you understand the entire thing?
Please no religious oriented answers.

a couple of months ago i took a pap smear and the results indicated that my cells were very abnormal, so they said i had moderate dysplasia! i then had to get a biopsy to diagnose this... when the biopsy results came back... the doctor said my cells were still abnormal, but not as abnormal as before, so now i have to get another pap test! could it be that my cells are returning to normal on their own.... what is going on?

Can a doctor or his staff , i.e. physicians assistant, call a methadone clinic and give them information without the patient signing a release? The methadone clinic WILL NOT give them any information even that a person is going there because of the patient confidentiality act. I know you have to sign releases for other records and I wonder if this would have a different law?
