Health - 29 November 2006

Okay. I am going to be candid with everyone. I am in my first year of college. I attend a county college. In high school they told me I had a slight learning disability. Whenever I take "state" tests, I always fail. I always get in the 60's and in college you have to get a 70 or better. I am not supid, I can't seem to open my brain up enough to really learn the material....I was thinking maybe I take Adderall. I heard it's for people who have ADD or ADHD. I need to know, is there any medication I can take to make my brain take in more information? I need honest answers. Thank you

i thought hydrating ones self properly was supposed to improve your health and aid weight loss.
i am eating healthy foods and only around 1,200 cals per day, which is far less than i was consuming previously?

My boyfriend and I had sex Monday night without a condom. I'm on the shot (depo) but this was the first time he came in me EVER! I shouldn't be this worried because I'm using birth control but I am. I'm only 18! Do you think I should have an high concern about this situation?

This girl I know suffers from depression. Don't know why, she is beautiful and fun, smart and charming. We have been dating for a while, but it seems like the more apparent feelings become for each other, the further she tries to distance herself from me and us. I assume something bad happened to her in the past but she won't elaborate. It's like she's got a wall between us (a fairly common way to refer to emotional suppression, I assume). My question is, is it really even possible for her to love someone else if she doesn't really love/accept herself? Also, for anyone with experience in similar situations, it sometimes seems to me like she wants someone to keep pushing at her wall, to try and get past it. Could my instincts be correct? If she wants that, is it an attempt to break it down or maintain the need for it?

I've tried oils, medication, white noise therapy, natural remedies and nothing works!! I've seen specialists, they all say to get used to it because there is nothing to do!!! If someone out there had it and got rid of it, could you please tell me what I can do to stop the ringing before I go crazy!!!!

For a while now, I've noticed that I'm more tired that usual. I sleep enough as it is, but during the day I feel like I'm about to just fall asleep and I've even done so at work. Bad, I know. Its like I have no energy at all anymore. Also, my hair has always been thin, but lately it feels a lot thinner and breaking easier. I've been gaining weight, not like I'm obese or anything, but to where none of my regular bras fit anymore and to top it all off, I haven't gotten my period in a while. I know I should prolly go to a doctor, but I guess I'm just kinda scared of what I might hear. Is there something wrong with me???

I have not had a cigarette in 7 days. My intentions are to finally quit for good. I have been eating everything that has not run from me for the last week and can feel my size 7 frame starting to explode.
I can only assume that since I am no longer spending my time smoking that now I am trying to fill that time with eating. Anyone else out there experience this and if so how did you manage these cravings?
