Please help! I just think I'm so misunderstood!?
I want to show that I'm interested in something, for example shadowing someone in my chosen profession. But I feel like I come across as disingenous. I ask questions and smile, sometimes I'm quiet, but.....I just don't know how to else to prove to them that I'm interested in the profession which I REALLY honest-to-goodness really I am!
Its like now I don't know how to be anymore, when I try to show that I'm interested i come across as being disingenous and when I don't try I come across as indifferent. Please help. :)
I think its because I smile in the beginnng and then later on become normal, I don't know how let conversations flow well. I do say Wow, and Great and that's Good! When they are telling me something interersting......i just don't know how to act? I can be myself but........they will think I'm indifferent

I'd like to hear serious, helpful reviews from people who have taken Adderall for ADD/ADHD. I've just been diagnosed with ADD and I was prescribed Adderall. My ADD got to the point where I felt like it was hopeless, and I even contemplated not going to college because I felt like I wasn't cut for it because of this hinderance. I'd like to know if Adderall is going to help me. I'd also like to know side effects, and anything else you find important about it. Thankyou.

My daughter has a circular red "disk" on the back of her leg. It's about 2-3 inches in diameter. It's a perfect circle. It doesn't appear to be swollen but it is raised up ever so slightly from the skin. I considered taking her to the ER but it isn't causing any pain or distress (and she's a complete drama queen). I was thinking it might even be from playing with the vacuum or some sort of suction device like paper towel roll. She doesn't have any recollection of anything happening.

Can any current or former Curves members tell me a bit about the start up process?

A few days ago, I was at a Relay for Life fundraiser, and in exchange for donations to the American Cancer Society, they were giving out two week gift certificates for Curves.

Aside from the two week guest pass, the certificate also says “Free Tour and Figure Analysis”.

I’ve actually been thinking about Curves for a while.

I’ve checked here as well as other message boards and woman have mentioned on the first visit they are weighed, measurements taken, body fat, etc.

My question is: they seriously charge for a tour?! Does that go even if you just want a looksie and not get weighed or anything?

I guess I just don’t want to waste my coupon on the tour/ figure analysis if I end up deciding not to try it.

*HUGS*

Sometimes they fall alseep when I'm just sitting not even leaning on them at all. Other times when I'm laying on my stomach with arms over head to lay on. I understand laying on them will make them go to sleep but, it happens within seconds. this just started about a month ago.

I have severe arthritis in both knees & back, I can't exercise like normal people that can jump around & walk & run. I have to use a walker or wheel chair, when I walk I can walk for just a few steps & have to sit down again the pain is so bad. I take celebrex for it every day. I heard pools are a good way to get exercise but there its out of the question as I am on a limited budget & the pool fees cost way too much, any suggestions on how I can exercise every day & try to keep fit like I used to be? I would appriciate any suggestions.

well i dont go to the doctor becuase they will most likey make me go to the doctor. i cant go to a different one either but it seems like my doctor is kinda agressive he says i HAVE to and not should because 2 or 3 years ago he said i might have to have surgery and i should check my degree but i never did. i regret it now becuase i could have had like the massages ....

im 13 years old. i dont know my degree but my shoulder bone kinda sticks out and one rib is bigger then the other. i think i got it because i always slepe on one side. but no one at school notices. but if i wore a spegitti strap then people might notice

i am really scared of surgery but im just scared that it will get worse and worse and i will end up getting surgery anyways and then the risk of paralyzation will go up...

sometimes i even cry myself to sleep. i dont mind if i have some pain when im old and my back is a LITTLE ugly..... im just really scared of surgery.

an ongoing issue so I recommended he talk to a professional but he only wanted my help.I tried my hardest to help him.Come to find out he kept a secret that he had a child he never met w/a one night stand b/f we met.I helped him come to terms with it & when he finally met the child he ended our relationship to pursue one with the mother of his child.I found all this out when I was in the hospital this past summer.I was pretty ill &the response Igot was never to call him again.There after he manipulated me into thinking I aided him into going back to the mother becauseI told him he should be a part of his child's life.Theyr not together anymore.This guy alwaysprofessed is love forme,I met his family.So I'm havin an awful time dealing w/how he treated me after I helped him with his serious threats of suic. Icertainly let him knowhow I felt.I told him he messed w/my head, used me &that he doesn't exist to me anymore.He has not even tried to be remorseful.Its been 6months, Icant let it go,why? How can someone do thid to someone else? He turned from Mr Wonderful in Mr. Horrible just like that. Ironically, I am seeking therapy to understand it all. And I have so much anger inside still six months later.

I live in a apartment building, there is only one way to get in and out of the apartment building. There used to be two post to hold on to. but one of them has been broken since August of 2006. The landlord come here all the time and dont fix it. He just leave it. Right now it is winter and there is alot of snow and ice at times, but it hard sometimes to walk up and down on these steps, and than one of the post missing, you dont have any support. If someone was to slip and fall , hurt there back or even broke a bone. Due to the negligance of the landlord. Could you sue him for pain and suffering and stuff? What would be the proper steps in filing a lawsuit? What are somethings I would need to prove my case and win?

I have a two part question. I would love for my wife to give me a hand job (been a while) , but I think I read somewhere that you are not suppose to have sex until one month after you have epididymitis. Can anyone verify this information. I took the Cipro about 3 weeks ago and have been feeling alot better ever since. I had a question about going to the Zoo, I remember reading about not doing anything strenuous but was wondering if walking around the zoo was strenuous.

Thanks
SHAGGY
