I've been stressing out a lot lately. I'm behind in my schoolwork and as i slowly catch up i'm falling behind too. I have to have all my work in by a certain date and I'm worried that I won't get it in. Also my school wants those in my grade to start looking at colleges and careers (I'm in 11th grade). My work is becoming stressful because I never get straight answers from my manager and boss. My parents want me to live my life their way practically. My parents are spoiling my younger brother. My mom is always stressed out because my bro doesn't do as he's told and my older siblings are stressing her out. We recently had a death in the family so my mom is upset. My dad is hardly ever in a happy mood and he's always yelling. I never get a chance to do my chores at home and I'm having horrible nightmares from all this stress. Most of these dreams revolve around death and its scaring me.
Does anyone have any suggestions to help me get through all this?

Do you look at them and say: "I'm going to eat your legs two by two!" or "I'll bite off your head!", "You'll be a trunkless elephant!", and then imagine the little animals crying in terror?

I did that when I was little. Gummy bears are good for this too.

I know what im eating and I know its a good and healthy food. I quit cold turkey drinking soda, chips, snacks ect..
Yesterday I filled my shopping cart with nothing but fruits and 100 calories snacks, granola bars yogurts. Low sodium bacon (only 3 slices in the morning). I eat 6 small portions per day vs. 3 meals. So I know what Im eating cant be much in calories. Should I make sure I eat a certain amount of calories per day or no more then a certain amount? I seriously cant see myself having much calories now that Im eating healthy. So im just curious if I should make sure I dont go above a certain amount of calories. Also Im only drinking gatorade, crystal light and water water water. I know im headed down the right path. Also walking 1 hour a day , 5 days a week. Should I be obsessed about calories keeping under a certain amount? Thanks in advance for your replies

When I was in my early teens, one of the "sealants" on my back tooth chipped, and kind of lifted up. The dentist didn't fix it for over 3 years (he kept saying "oh it's fine"), but food got trapped under there and it created a very deep cavity. It's my only cavity, by the way, and there was no way for me to prevent it or clean under there. Now, a few years later, I need a root canal because it's been very sensitive to cold and it hurts when I bite down. They (a different and far more comptetant dentists' office) took x-rays and said that there was no infection though. Is there any pain DURING the root canal, or only after (for the next few days)? I ask because a.) I have neurological problems in my neck, spine, and face which causes pain and twitching, and I don't want this to exacerbate it, and b.) I'm severely allergic to pain killers (I'm talking an anaphylactic reaction). I don't want to be in pain with no way to treat it. :( Thanks so much if you can help with this!

One of my bestfriends was in the hospital for 2 weeks. When she returned to school, she said she was sick. Finally when we got alone, yesterday she told me that she had taken a whole bunch of pills along with alcholic Long Island Ice Tea. She said her heart stopped 3 times, and she was in the hosp. for a week and the Physcward for a week. She said she did it because she was depressed about her dad moving alllll the way to California (We live in Illinois) and she said her mom had been constantly making comments on her being "fat" and she's not fat. Shes average. She said she hasnt ate since Saturday and today is Tuesday. She said shes very tired and shes been taking Anti-Depressants making her feel alittle better. But she was falling asleep in class. Today, she didnt come to class. I'm sure its nothing major because she said shes not thinking about suicide, and if she was she would tell me. I tried to cheer her up, HOW DO I HELP HER? She is seing a shrink but she said its not helping.

Every time I sneeze, cough, hiccup, etc. I get a short burst of pain in my chest. It kind of feels like a pulled muscle, but how in the world would I pull a muscle there? I don't bench press or anything like that. What can I do to make it feel better if it is a pulled muscle?
