I have been masturbatin for a year now, and the other day this lump was in my penis when i woke up and it burned for the day whenever i flexed my penis or tried to masturbate. It has been 2 days now and i tried earlier and it began to burn at the tip when the canal for the semen meets the tip of the penis. I don't know what to do and am considering visiting the doctor in a few days if the bump doesn't start going away

First of all I am 19 and I have been dipping for 3 years. I have been having sore throats for a few months. The first two times the doctor just said it was probably strep throat and i got some meds and I was fine in a day or two. Well this time it happened again, except it hasn't gone away quite as quick. So I got a light and looked in my throat and there is a little bump about half the size of a pencil eraser on my Oropharnx. It is a around the same color as the throat and has a little red mark in the center. My throat doesn't really hurt bad now, it just feels funny when i swallow or when my throat gets dry. I hope its not a forming tumor or anything like that. The roof of my mouth hurts a little when i swallow also.

Maybe I am a hypochondriac but I am a little worried, I am also trying my hardest to quit dipping.

I just had my heart cruelly broken recently over a simple crush yet I've been devastated. I'm numb and dont feel anything when another guy likes me.. It's already been 3 weeks. Sometimes I just break out crying at home. I've been excercising a lot lately because it makes me feel better.. but the high wears off in a day and im back to being depressed. What's wrong with me?

I cannt handle anything right now. Evrything and everybody seems wrong to me. Iam trying to keep everything under my control, i show my anger on everybody i dont care who ( at work, at home, with friends).
Iam seriously struggling to get a hold on myself. And above all.... i am forgetting things, words....
iam so confused at this is point of my life... that i see so much blankness.
i cannt get over my past (parents divorce)....i cannt forgive people... and i show revenge for everything, even to the person i love the most.
But at the same time... i understand situations much better than other people of my age (24).
I feel iam the meaning and iam the opposite. I hate the most is music.... infact there is nothing i love truely.
What should i do? I get angry in a sec for a small matter and carry it all the way till next day , i wont talk to anybody, i wont eat and i hate the person who did this(made me angry).

In May 2006, I weighed about 161 pounds, I got down to 127 by September. I had to start eating more as I am an athlete that needs to have energy to practice and play. Unfortunately I used this as an excuse to eat crap and a lot of it. Basically, I have definitely let myself go, and I'm hating myself about it right now. I have tried to start Atkins Induction, but end up sabotaging the diet at around 3, 4pm. I'm hungry, yes, but I've been overeating to the point where I tip the scale at back up at 145 pounds. I really need to relose 20 pounds. I'm hoping to achieve this before the new year so I that my resolution can be to STAY healthy. If this can be done before Christmas that would be even better. Tomorrow I'm going to restart Induction again, hopefully with more luck than before. I really need to get back down to around 125, and any help would be so greatly appreciated, even a mere word or two of encouragement would go a long way. Thank you.
