I feel these days no one can say they didn't know that for example, heroin is addictive. When you take drugs you know the likely result. That's fair enough, it's your body, your life. It's up to you how you kill yourself. But why is society expected to carry the can? How many people's lives are ruined, not just the drug takers, but their families, and the people who get burgled or attacked to fund addiction. However small the amount you take, you are helping fund major crime. The addict is 100% guilty.

I've been on it for about 7 years. I'm 27 and I take 25mg daily. It was prescribed to me for symptoms associated with Mitral Valve Prolapse. The three main reasons I want off - sex drive is pretty much gone, I want to have children in the next couple of years, and I don't want to be taking a pill everyday for the rest of my life unless it's a vitamin. I know Toprol can be a libido killer and I've read that you can't take Toprol while pregnant. How can I wean myself as I know you can't just abruptly stop taking it?

People always tell me I am skinny, but I don't think I am.

I constantly obsess about my weight.

I cook extravagant dinners but I don't eat them, everyone else enjoys the meal while I eat an apple or some broccoli or sometimes nothing at all.

I am 5'4 115lbs. and a size 3-5...

I have major depression....when it gets real bad,I need to get away alone to clear my head.This can take a day or a week,but I never had someone be concerned for me before.I truly would never hurt someone or make them be scared for me,especially not when I care about them. I know ppl will say,"imagine how you would feel if he disappeared..." and while that's true,it doesn't come into it...depression makes you selfish..."I'm sad.I'm depressed,I can't go on living...".It's all about ME,unfortunately...but I want to apologise to him,to try to explain that this is how I cope with my bad memories...any suggestions,please?

we have been encouraged to eat at least five portions of fruits and vegetables a day, but most of these fruits taste like they have so much sugar in them, is this not dangerous to health, especially for those concerned about weight gain?

I am a 38 year old male, who has a slight disability from birth and is getting worse due to my age, in that my right side such as right arm, leg, and foot, are much weaker than my left side. However, I have asked many GPs and other specialists who say it is not severe enough for me to get registered disabled. I am therefore missing out on opportunties which are offered to other registered disabled people in terms of benefits and other help provided in finding suitable employment. I therefore find myself in a position where I cannot be registered disabled and I am not as fully fit or have the same physical strength as a normal person. This is affecting my every day life especially in the work place, where people are often reluctant to help. However, I do have an office based clerical job.

Please advice the best course of action to take.

Almost two years ago, I was attacked by a man who tried to rape and kill me. He didn't, thank God. I know I should forgive him, and I really want to. He is in prison now. Forgiving and forgetting are two separate things. But I get these awful ideas when I think of him. Torture, killing him, and in quite vivid detail. I've gone through counseling; that's not the problem. I just want to see him hurt as badly as I do/did. Why can't I let go and forgive him for what he has done to me and my life?

My late father developed Alzheimer's disease and had to go into a nursing home. The SS said he must sell his home to pay for his own care. As I held an Enduring Power of Attorney, I refused because under the 1946 NHS act ALL care should be free. Many like my dad end up in this situation - although he had never taken a day off work or claimed any sort of state benefit. When he needed his country's help they said he 'wasn't eligible' and turned him down - yet as a young man he served his country well - he fought at Arnham etc. but all that apparently counts for nothing!
