I get enough sleep, probably 9 hours a night during the week, and as many as 13 a night on the weekend...but why am I still tired? It's interfering with my social life and school, because i'm always sleepy. I'm 16 years old. I'm not on any meds that might make me drowsy. Can someone help me or give me a reason for this?

Has anyone ever heard of this or know about staining?

Iv stretched a lot and ate bananas but r there any other ways that will help out my quads and help them feel better by Friday?

So im screwed up. Ya, I know that already.. I havent eaten anything in 9 days now... I guess I'm getting used to it.. anyways, hungry is just a feeling... Well, I've lost 6lbs... I don't know if you would call it anorexic... I'd just call it not eating... but my "friend" told me I was fat today... and I believe her. I'm 5'2 and 94lbs... I don't know what it is... I can't control it... this... feeling... but it really hurt me when she called me fat... especially since i'm trying to loose weight.. So, I've been crying a lot... and I'm not sure what to do...

How long is it safe to stay on Yasmin birth control? I've heard 5 years, but recently I heard only 2. Anyone know? I don't want to stay on it so long that I start getting major health issues and side effects...

household and cosmetic products, shampoos, toothpastes, all sorts of smells, etc. I, personally, only use natural items and never use any of the above mentioned, however, living in a society that exudes all this stuff, I can't get away from it, especially since my roommate uses these things and brings dry cleaning home etc. And my landlord is insisting on installing new carpeting. Long story short, where can I go/live, where I will be no longer be exposed to any of this because I am getting progressively ill. I need to leave before I am too sick to do so. Are there any conscious communities?

I seem to clench my teeth and grind my teeth while sleeping at night. Do you know if there's a temporary Splint you could get at a general store to control this until I get to a dentist?

Hey I am 13 years old and now weigh 180 pounds. I started my diet around August and at that time I was 218 pounds. I feel really proud of my self for losing this weight. I want to lost 77 pounds by the start of 8th grade. If I have lost this amount of weight in the amount of time how long would it take me to lose this much? And yes I know I am extremely huge but please don't make fun of me.

Well, a couple years ago, I had an eating disorder and was suffering from depression, so it was a really tough time. I didn't really want to live, and I hated everyone and everything. Eventually, I made a complete 180 with the help of myself. I did not go get professional help, and I was too embarrased and ashamed to say anything to my parents or friends. Today, I'm healthy and everything, but I still relapse sometimes. The relapses have been getting more frequent, and scary. I'm slowly returning to where I was two years ago, and I don't want to be there. I'm beginning to feel really uncomfortable with myself now that I've gained all the weight back, and I HATE IT! I just want to be normal like everyone else. I don't want to go to therapy or anything, because I would hate to be considered "a patient" and everything. So, I was wondering if anyone had advice, becuase I can't talk to anyone around me, becuase I'm ashamed. Anything will help...I'm just tired.

Or just making lots of money - I find money is a great equalizer. Maybe mine is more ' situational ' than anything else.

Considering the number of insurance claims resulting from drinking drivers under the subtitle of personal injuries it is so easy to receive a compensation package related to those alcohol related injuries.

Would you prefer a compensation package of similar design rather than the severe and inadequate welfare packages meant to sustain fetal alcohol injuries ? Adding insult to injury have you felt inadequate each time you read what experts have to say about FAS, is FAV kinder ?

FAS = foetal alcohol syndrome
FAV = foetal alcohol victim

What say you when taxpayers complain FAS is a drag on today's economy.
