Last night I was looking @ my high school yearbook, & it brought back depressing flashbacks of me being singled out, harrassed, bullied, & picked on by 98% of the school, & the former foster mom punishing me from my Senior Prom for petty reasons. She knew that I suffered Anxiety, OCD, Depression, & Tourette's Syndrome. One cognitive behavioral therapist encouraged her to punish me for every symptom of my disorders, which was very hard for me because TS is involuntary tics & outbursts. I shouldn't have been punished from my high school senior prom, & I graduated from high school with Honors-a 3.6 GPA. & on graduation day, my foster mom wouldn't let me wear my hair down. She combed my hair in an embarrassing child's style & was yelling @ me, cursing me out & yanking my hair while combing it. Also after graduation, our neighbor across the street cursed me out for no reason. I had no good high school senior memories. I'm a 23-yr old college grad now. I know that's in the past but it hurts.

I have been on birth control for three weeks. On Saturday, my boyfriend and I had sex with a condom. He ejaculated into the condom, but when he pulled out, it slipped and I believe some semen landed around my vaginal area. Even though I am on the pill, I still cant help but worry. It's still within the 72-hour period - should I be taking that emergency pill? Is it safe to take even when you are on Birth Control pill also?

I lift weights and have put on alot of muscle in my trap region within this past year. Since I've put on the mass I've been getting stiffness in my lower and mid traps. I'm wondering if this is a growth pain or something else. I don't feel as if I've injured the region, but when I bend over to stretch…the erector muscles in my mid back loosen and pop (giving me a blood rush to the head). I've had massages and chiropractic care but haven't obtained satisfactory results. Has anyone else had this and if so does it go away after awhile?

Couple months back I went through my clinical rotation for my Phlebotomy program and saw some rather questionable activities. I got in touch with a couple different groups and ended up getting a couple Phlebotomists fired due to unsafe practices.

I am working for the hospital were this occured- no one knows I did it, but I feel guilty, because now everyone is mad at the person that altered their practices.

Should I feel bad? I mean, I did this for the health and safety of others, is in doing that I think I did right, but these people lost their jobs.

Okay so I did something incredibly stupid. I gave my boyfriend unprotected oral sex. I totally freaked out after becuase id idn't want to tog that far and we both agreed we're going to wait on that. I have never had sex or oral sex with anyone else, but my boyfriend has had sex with a girl when he was much younger and it was about 6 years ago. He doesn't think he has any STD's, but I'm scared to death I'm going to get one sicne I know of them don't show symptoms. He has never been tested and obviously I haven't either and I really could not bring myself to tell my mother I want to get tested and I deffinately don't want her knowing.I'm scared becuase it's been about 4 days and my kind of throat hurts which could be a sign of gonorhea? Or am I being paranoid? He did not come in my mouth and and was literally probably about a minuete or two tops.

Does anyone have any information in the Delta 32 gene? I know it was traced back to the black plauge but I'd like to know...
1. Is there a way to find out if we carry it
2. What increases our chances of carrying it
3. How effective is it from preventing HIV
4. What other viruses does it prevent you from getting

Thanks! Any additional information would be appreciated also.

Okay, This is going to sound really weird, but I'm addicted to popping my zits and blackheads. I tell myself I'm not going to do it but then I end up doing it for like 30 minute every night. I know this is really bad for my face and I'm afraid it's going to start scarring! HELP!! What makes it worse is that I think if I stopped I would have pretty nice skin. Got any ideas? Oh also, I already use benzoyle peroxide stuff. (spelling??? haha)

Does anyone know the accuracy of Omron Body Logic Hand Held Body Fat Monitors ? I have been using a scale that told me my BF%, and today my trainer used one that uses the same technology, except it is handheld. Well, interestingly enough, the scale has been saying I am 27% body fat ( even though I am 125 and run and work out 4 days a week), but today, the handheld said I was 17.5%!!! To my shock--obviously! my only question is--How accurate is it? Any input would help. Thanks!

As the title suggests, I have forgotten how to sit down. It's been 20 days since I last sat in a chair. For some reason I can't make my legs bend when I try. I have no problem walking or running, but I do have some trouble getting into bed. I usually run and jump to get in, and occasionally I miss. The hardest part is getting out of bed. I'm forced to roll out and fall on the hardwood floor. Once I gave myself a concussion when I hit my head on the nightstand. Also, as you may imagine this problem hinders me from using the latrine. For the past 20 days I been using a grocery bag to relieve myself. I have successfully made an enemy out of my garbage man. Every Tuesday he bangs on my door to ask me "What if I went to your workplace and *expletive* on your desk!" You may think I'm mentally handicapped, but I beg you any answers you may provide will help. Thank you.
