I broke out in hives for no reason at all. I haven't eaten, worn or used anything new. Except maybe some vitamin C I am taking for a cold I have.
But for the last two days, my upper body is covered in welts. Besides Benydrill (sorry for the misspelling) is there any treatments I can do to help them go away?

My thyroid was removed 20 yrs. ago; hence, something in my brain tends to hyperfocus on certain details. I am getting treatment for this and aim every day to rise above it. However, it comes out when my boyfriend, who says I am the one, are talking. He has a daughter. Wouldn't a man be wary of exposing a child to this kind of thought process? One detail - his wife died 7 years ago because she did not talk about her problems and overdosed on prescription drugs. I appreciate your advice and comments! Thank you8.

My cousin had her baby this past Thursday. My grandmother, grandfather, and little cousin went to see her. She had it about 11 a.m. and we went to see her at 4 p.m. (after school). So, there was around 5 hours in between.

After visiting for about 5 minutes they moved her into a more comfortable room. They came in with a wheel chair but she said that she wanted to walk. Well, my grandmother told her that she needs to look after her self....and that "in the old days" women stayed mostly in bed for 9 days. And told her that she would be feeling it later.

My cousin said she felt fine and wasn't hurting at all....so, what was the problem?

Thanks for the answers.

I weighed 140 pounds, but right now i just weighed myself and i weigh 149 pounds. I gained almost ten pounds. I am positive this is not muscle weight and i eat healthy and everything, but I would like to know what could have caused the rapid weight gain. I usually weigh around 140 pounds. Thank you all in advance.

But nothing seems to be showing up on my scale as far as weight loss goes..(even some slight weight increases??) I NEED to lose 30 pounds before my wedding on June 30th. Any tips on how to expedite the process? It's frustrating!!

I heared numerous times that meditation helps people with mental problems and other various health problems. The thing is, that would defy one of the main ideas in meditation.. "NO GAIN"

You sit, just to sit... Not to gain anything. But how can someone with a problem do something that he hopes will help him, without hoping that it will? This in itself brings inner conflict which interferes with the process of eliminating all thoughts, relaxing, etc.

On the other hand, if I would sit just to sit, I'd quickly get bored, because I have no goal !

I'd like to hear stories. How did you start meditating? Did you have a teacher? Did you have a set "goal"? How do you meditate? Did it help you in anyway? How are you now?

(Stories from people with "problems" only please. No point hearing this from people who were fine to begin with.)

About 5 months ago I was writing my husband a letter beacuse we were seperated. I was telling him how much I have always loved him and the kids and all of a sudden I got scared and thought that God was having me writ this because I was going to die. Every since then I keep getting this scary bad feeling that I am going to die and now I can't stop thinking about it. And every time I start to do something like go grocery shopping or clean the house I start thinking "I'm gonna die" and it bothers me so bad that I can't function from day to day. I was wandering if anyone else has had a similar experience? If so please share it with me . I need to know if this could be ocd or anciety or what?

I am 19 years old. I weight 106.4 and i'm 5' 6" i'm also a female. I would like to know if I should gain weight. I'm afraid to because all my friends say I should but they are all bigger. Are they just saying that so I will weigh the same as them or do they actually care? I'm not anorexic i just have a really good Metabolism. Let me know what you think.
