I decided to start taking birth control pills again after about 8yrs. I understand the cancer risks. But am I going to gain weight? The pills are Yasmin 28. Is there a possibility that I'll be fat or what? SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY.

Sometimes I'll be feeling fine and out of no where I just start feeling sad even though I have no reason to be sad. When I try to figure out why I'm sad I can't come up with an answer.

I've always had this paranoia since I've moved out on my own that there's some sick people out there who would break into a house drug someone and rape them. I don't even remember what gave me this idea. but I'm real paranoid about it. I changed the locks on my doors so the apartment complexes repair men won't have a key and I put extra locks on the windows. Is this good enough or Is there anything else I could do to add more security.

Back ground info:

My best friend and I were walking from the movie theater to her house (like a 20 minute walk) and her brother pulled up on their motor cycle. He was like "HEY!"

He said He'd drive home and get his car and come pick us up. This was weird because this was before I really go to know him, and he always seemed pretty grouchy. He got the car and pulled up and my friend says to me

"He's only doing this because YOU'RE here" Then she doesn't say anything else, and never brought up anything about him acting different when I'm around until

A few months later. She tells me that her cousin (17) and this brother (19) were talking and her cousin said I was cute. Then her brother said "Kate weighs 200lbs!" even though, I don’t. I weigh 135, and I'm 5'8.

She also told me that he was watching TV and saw a girl that looked like me and goes "OMG its KATE!"

Hello. I'm moving to Minneapolis next week. I am disabled with degenerative disc disease and take various medications, among them a prescription for pain. My current pain-management doctor in Colorado told me that I may regret the move to that particular area, that he has lectured there and discovered that Minnesota is notorious for its resistance to prescribing medications for pain, even chronic and dibilitating pain. Do others know this to be true? It's most disquieting...

I just called a shrink to get an appointment as i feel i have depression. She asked for brief background and then asked if i will continue the sessions. I said i hope to. she said no hopes, "we cant waste appointment after someone who is not confident about following through" these were her exact words. I felt it was rude. m i overreacting and is it a my way of not taking sessions? do u think it was wrong on the part of d shrink to talk like dis wit a perspective patient?

Im working out every day, eating really healthy - but my belly is bloated! - Not just look it, but feel it
Ive tried cutting down on grains, wheat, yeast etc. I drink plenty of water. Even keeping a food journal. To no real luck. or weight loss.
Could I have tummy parasites?
