As I get older the balls sag more and more. I can no longer wear boxers because of discomfort or sleep naked comfortably. I am only in my 40's and got a long way to go. What should I do?

For the past year or so, I've been getting really down. I started self-harming, and it got pretty out of control. I have recently been trying to do less of it, and I've been pretty succsessful.
But the thing is, lately, I've been feeling really really sad, but not only that, I'll get horribly angry to the point where I cry and take out my anger by hitting/punching things. But I also get really happy, too.
It's like there's no "in between." I'm either extremly happy, mad, sad, ect.
Do you think there could be anything wrong with me? Because this is getting tiring to deal with all the crazy emotions.

Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to tone down and lose a few pounds, I work nights, so I sleep during the day, when I'm awake, I eat maybe a bagel or something and drink a large coffee, I'm sleeping during the the day, so breakfast, lunch and snacks are not consumed, I'm probably consuming like 500 calaries at night, probably not even close to that, how would this effect my plans to lose weight? Please note, Having an eating disorder or anything like that is not my situation, I just have to rest during the day to pull a 9-12 shift at night, with the exception of my days off. When I do eat, what I eat makes me full, so I'm not starving myself or anything, but on a daily basis this what I consume, nothing more than tea or coffee and some type of bread.( bagel,toast, english muffin, a croissant ) or maybe a chicken salad or something, basically I barely have a full meal on my schedule, what do u think about this routine? I'm 5'7, 200lbs, most of my weight (large breast), I'm a large frame female, but curvy.

Your age? Had a previous exam?

How was your overall experience? Negative aspects (cold room, long wait, professional atmosphere, etc.)? Positive aspects (comfortable environment, good staff, etc.)?
How did you prepare for your exam (read online, speak with friends)?
Was there anything the technologist did you made you feel more comfortable/uncomfortable?
After you exam how did you feel?
Did you feel different after you exam than you did when you arrived?
Can you offer any suggestions to make your next experience better?
Overall, how do you feel about mammography?

Thanks for all your help.

I have Multiple Sclerosis, am constantly fatigued and was taking provigil(modafinil) to help me until my insurance stopped paying for it. It costs @ $250/ month and I support my 2 kids on disability and child support ($950/month). Is there anywhere that I can go to help me with this expense? My quality of life is greatly reduced without it.

If so, how do "pro-life" individuals get around it? Is it something that a medical student can "opt out" from? I need some guidance and would really appreciate if those of you who have gone through medical training could tell me what your decisions were and why.

My question is if I have sex with condoms most of the time, what's the possibility of contracting HIV? If the man didn't ejaculate inside me during unprotected sex, do I still have possibility of contracting this disease? If he did ejaculate inside of me, but test HIV negative, is there still a possibility for me to get infected (there is a possiblity of test being wrong)?

If so have yours tried to understand bipolar? Do they expect you can be cured? Do any of your emotions or desires come across to them as being bipolar? I know my parents have enough of their own issues. How do I stop secretly hoping they will finally understand what I deal with?I understand where they come from and I know they love me its just they arent exactly a good shoulder to lean on. They have issues that are too great. I need stability.

Ok, I'm really frustrated cause i can't start a period and have recovered from prior annorexia. I am now healthy and my weight has stabilized at around 99-100 pounds. I am 5 foot 2.5 inches tall. I eat plenty during the day (six small, healthy meals) and my body just won't gain any more weight. I have been eating like that for two years because I am seeing a nutritionist who prescribed me the meal plan. I reached this weight, and my body just doesn't want to gain any more, even though I am no longer annorexic and eat plenty during the day. My nutritionist is concerned cause I still can't start a period and have never even had one in my life. I am sixteen, going on seventeen in May. Is there any kind of medicine or hormones that will help me to finally start? I think it needs a boost because it's been underfed in the past (two years ago) and it just won't jumpstart.
