does that make commiting suicide hereditary. Two of my family members (My Mom and Nephew) both committed suicide and I was wondering if that could mean thinking along the lines of doing that to yourself could have something to do with being hereditary? I just don't think I could deal with that again.

some people think that it is the sole responsibility of parents, not of teachers, to give children information about sex. They say that education is a private matter and it does not belong in schools. Others say that sex education may be neglected at home in that schools should share this responsibility. What do you think? choose one alternative and explain why

I live in an all girls dormatory at my college and a girl on my floor was taken to the emergency room because she went into a fit. for twenty minutes she screamed like i had never heard before, she screamed like some one who was not in control of herself, she sounded like she was posessed. along wiht the screaming she was also writhing, like she was in an unimaginable amount of pain. some people said she was having a seizure but i know that you cant scream when you are siezing. she had apparently threw up in her room sometime and she wasnt responding too any of the medics or her roommate, she seemed incoherant to anything other than screaming. i have no idea what could have caused this, i am really shook up about it so i would like to know if anyone has an idea as to what it may have been.

Are there any inpatient or outpatient facilities in the Los Angeles area to treat clinical depression? The depression is affecting my sister's ability to function at her job and in daily life. Her depression has been pervasive on and off since her late teens and has never been treated. She is at a breaking point. Any direction is greatly appreciated. She is considering short term disability through her employer to give this full and proper attention for a concentrated period of time. Thank you.

I take only 2.5 mg. of Zyprexa & on 3 or 4 different occasions - I wet in my pants & on bed ---without Waking Up; I think I sleep too hard sometimes due to Zyprexa! also, my sis takes Seroquel & told me today that she's done the same thing recently; i think she takes 100 mg. of Seroquel per day but she was prescribed 3 times that amount of it! She says she's NEVER done that before and I had never wet the bed - before taking Zyprexa! Did that happen to you if you took either of these anti-psychotic med's? any comments?

Fully knowing that she had an STD, my friend had sex with her now ex-boyfriend, and didn't tell him about the STD. He was tested, and was positive for HPV. He says that she can get jail time for it, and she comes crying to me, as her best friend.

I heard that in Washington state, you cannot get jail time for that unless it is HIV or AIDS. True?

Any advice? I don't want her to go to jail. So any advice for either of us would be great.

My Community drinks it.-Some bottlers such as Dannon have begun adding fluoride to their water.
According to a 2002 study,67% of Americans were living in communities with fluoridated water.

Many mistake Fluoridation of water as a dental precaution. Studies show that if Fluoride does not touch your teeth, it will have no effect on your dental health. So why drink Fluoride?

The first occurrence of fluoridated drinking water was in German Nazi prison camps. They found that mass-medicating water with fluoride was a way to "sterilize humans and force them into a into a calm submission.”

"I am appalled at the prospect of using water as a vehicle for drugs. Fluoride is a corrosive poison that will produce serious effects on a long range basis. Any attempt to use water this way is deplorable."
- Dr. Charles Gordon Heyd, Past President of the American Medical Association
