Is passion fruit juice a natural tranquilizer? I have heard it has a calming effect and that in Brazil, where the fruit grows in plenty, its a well known natural tranquilizer and popular drink.

Now that I'm starting to feel less depressed I'm getting a lot of anxiety and its impossible for me to want to feel better. Should I reduce my antidepressants a bit so I can give myself more time to get used to feeling better? Its just not normal for me to feel better and its freaking me out! I don't know if I can handle getting better this fast anymore.

Her illness started with chills and high fever (102F) about 15 days back. The blood report does not indicate malaria or typhoid. The hb%, platelet count and conjuctiva are normal. She has been on an antibiotic course for 1 week. The fever has since reduced but appears at night about 99F.No apparent appetite loss or nausea. Is it a case of FLU or is further diagnosis required.

I count my calories everyday, I'll feel horrible if I go over my 1200 cal limit. I do exercise 90 minutes everyday and would feel as if I'll get fat if I skip a day's exercise. Sometimes I eat sugary foods and start crying afterwards. And I always can't wait until it's time to eat, like eating is the most important thing during the day. I am not overweight, I'm 128lbs and 5"5' but I'm not skinnier than theother girls in school..

What's your favorite exercise, that leaves you feeling great afterwards? I love jogging, especially in the summer, waking up at 5-7 am and taking my iPod and jogging around my neighborhood. It leaves me feeling great afterwards, I just feel so balanced and at peace.

Say that you had the power to cure anyone's injury, illness, pain, or disease by taking it on yourself. Would you and/or how would you use this power?

I heard first when you start the losing weight (diet and excercise) you first lose 8-10 pounds of water and after that you lose about 2-3 pounds a week on average. What is the process how long do you have to wait for the first 8-10 pounds of water weight? Why also after working out several months after you lost some weight nothing happens. I heard it's called a "platue" and you have to find some way to shock your body so you can continue to lose weight. So if anyone knows please help and let me know and can you please be detailed about it? Provide me about how many months for the first sign of weight loss and so on. Thanks much!!

This is what I just went through because I got strep throat and couldn't swallow the medication. I was taking Synthroid 112 mg., Wellbutrin 150 mg, Lithium, Estrogen and Progesterone. I feel like crap...just like when I was first diagnosed. My major symptoms are very sore feet, my back aches, I am depressed, I have been raging and screaming and I hate myself and this stupid disease. My skin is a mess with these weird rashes on my temples, a cyst along my chin line. I am so desperate for support and to connect with others who feel like me. I look beaten and feel it too. My life really sucks. I have no spark for sex or to have a relationship. Please if there is anyone going through this let me know. Also, I have a weight problem too in my gut esp. and my hair continues to fall out. I am not well and cannot seem to get through to my doctor. Anyhow, I have just started taking all the meds again and hope they hurry up and work before I go beserk!

For about six months back in 2002-2003, I didn't have access to fluoride toothpaste or any modern dental supplies... unfortunately, several small cavities formed in that time. Since then, unable to afford a dentist, the cavities have just grown.

I currently have seven cavities that I'm able to feel with my tongue, two of which are likely to become a major problem down the line, and undoubtably several more in hiding.

Aside from regular oral hygiene, does anyone have any advice? I know how impotant a healthy mouth is, but I just don't know what to do.

If you were in need of help… let say from trouble, medical illness, or other crisis… do you think your ex would help you? Just a thought.

Zoloft isnt helping, Paxil turned me manic, wellbutrin gave me a seizure...I would like tosuggest something to my doctor and was hoping someone has some feedback on how a specific medicine helped them. I have a fear of failure and disappointment that I think is the cause of the lack of motivation at least. The only thing that helped was klonopin. But it is addictive and hard to get a prescription. Any feedback?
