I suffered from panic and Anxiety 10yrs ago, got over it. NOw within the past 2 months, they are back strong. My heart rate stayed elevated over 100 and at times 150 during an attack. All the anxiety brought up my blood pressure, not too high but a bit elevated. The dr put me on a beta blocker and xanax.
I had 5 ekg's and a echo, all was fine.
Has anyone else been through this?

I have a 12 yr old step daughter who says she’s a cutter. I’ve seen the marks on her ankle & wrist, they are small scratch like cuts. Obviously done with something sharp enough to cut the skin, however the cuts aren’t deep. They resemble cat scratches if I were trying to describe them efficiently. From what I have read about cutters, telling friends, & looking the subject up on the internet seems a bit out of character for someone who is doing this as a release. She doesn’t attempt to hide her cutting, has told her grandparents, mother, & girls at school about this. I have been informed by her principal that a few of her classmates were suspended for bringing razor blades to school, apparently these girls are ‘cutters’ too. My guess would be that she is doing this for attention, & because these other girls are also doing this. Either way it’s disturbing to me, & I want to get her the help she needs, but I also don’t want to reinforce this issue by making it into more than it is.

What can you do to alleviate the symptoms? I feel like crying most of the time or I'm irritated so easily. This has been going on the the past few months, but never before and I am 37 years old. This only occurs in the 10 days or so leading up to my cycle starting, then goes right away.

i am a 19 year old, single, childless, jobless, carless female. i graduated from high school early when i was 17 and since then i haven't been doing anything but jumping from job to job. i am being urged to go to college and i am taunted by my mother because my manic depressive personality won't let me keep a job. And when i do have a job i never get any hours for some unknown reason, and it never works out. my mother is ashamed of me because i am not doing what she thinks i should be doing. but sometimes i sit down and ask myself, "are there any 18 or 19 yr olds who have it altogether anyway?"
my family stresses me out so much about getting myself together that i forget that i am inly 19. i was diagnosed as bipolar so i've been dealing witrh it on my own. my mom just thinks i want to act crazy when its not in my control when my "episodes" start. she makes me feel like a burden and so unwanted. my depression is ruining my life and has been for 3 years! what should i do!

Okay, when I was with my ex, he was literally turned on my me almost all the time, and when I saw him again recently it was the same way... But with my current boyfriend it is only on the rare occasion that I do... Even tho I do what he tells me does it for him, he just doesnt sometimes..... It makes me feel unnattractive to him!! Why is this? I know I am pretty!

The CT scan showed my l4 and l5 discs are bulging, but I don't understand why that would happen. I'm only 24, and I haven't had any major injuries or accidents, and I have a boring office job with little to no lifting. Any insights on why someone like me might have that?

Also, I'd like to prevent these bulges from turning into full on herniations as much as possible. I'd welcome any insights on how to do that as well.

thanks

I have a microperforate hymen (hymen with very, very small opening, about the size of a pencil eraser). Do I need to have surgery to fix this? My boyfriend or I can't even get one finger inside of me. The skin appears to be thick and fleshy rather than thin, but it is flexible to some degree. I've tried to stretch it out but it hurts way too much. Help!

I love eating crisps, but need to loose some weight! I have recently discovered flavoured rice cakes and think they are scrummy!! But are they a good alternative to crisps?? I can see that they are lower in fat, but are they too good to be true??
