Well, I have tourettes, OCD,ADD,major depression and anger and mood problems. With my tourettes, i will blink alot or scrunch up my nose etc. alot of the times people will call me blinky or will make fun of me in some way. I get bullied by words for stupid reasons like i am to close to their locker when mine is right next to them. how do i stand up for myself in these situations?

For the past five days or so, I have had a bit of pain in in what feels like my chest (pectoral area, closer to the center of my chest than left nipple, extends a bit above and below the nipple).

The pain is occassional and happens when I breate deep and sometimes when I turn over while laying down or when I reach for something.

Most of the time when it hurts, it feels like a sharp pain. Today, there is a "low level" dull pain almost consistent.

There is no shortness of breath, and today I have felt quite lethargic and even light-headed (might not be at all related). I took a nap and I don't feel the light-headedness any more.

I am a serious smoker (12 years) with a horrendous diet.

I am not overweight (5 ft 10, 180 pounds), but was quite fit as little as 6 months ago, before totally stopping daily workouts.

Past 36 hours I have cut down on my cigarettes (7 yesterday and 3 today so far, normally a pack and a half a day. Pain at worst 2 days ago after a 2+ pack day

Thoughts?

I suffered depression in the past and it's like alcoholism, you're never totally out of it, but learn to control it. My daughter has said she wants to die for the past week. I wouldn't think she's trying to manipulate me, but don't know what to do. Dad is 2hrs away and she sees him saldomly but can't do nothing about that. Maybe she needs vitamins? Don't have medical insurance. I've scold her before for telling me this when she's lost a privilige due to misconduct, but I've also tried to talk to her about good things in life and tried to keep that away from her mind. How to pinpoint if it's manipulation or real problem?

Has anyone had a cortisone injection in the hip to help with arhritis? Did it work? How long after the injection did it take to get pain relief? And how long did the shot last for? A few weeks? Months? Any help would truly be appreciated!!! Thanks!!!

I am trying to help someone who is an addict. They are in denial and I'd like to know what I'm dealing with right up front. This is going to sound strange but how can you tell the difference between a pot pipe and a meth pipe? Is there a difference?

my sisters think that they both have stds. i took all of my towels and bleached them after every use. i sanitise the toilet seat before i use it and i only use flushable wipes, not the same toilet paper they use. i lock up my clothes so they cannot get to them and i am afraid of using the same washing machiene so i hav been going to the laundry mat. my sisters are 15 and 16 and they are so unresponsible. should i keep this routine going? or is there nothing to worry about? they got tested as negative, but they decided to go out this weekend and have sex with multiple parteners. what should i do? (besides try to talk to them, they have a shrink and i have already tried)

This sounds weird but my legs do what they like and there is nothing I can do to stop them. I have walked into the path of traffic and I can't tell myself to turn. It like I head towards the kitchen and my legs will either walk me into a wall or just sit me back down again. It doesn't happen all the time but enough times to be of notice. Also I do have a back problem which started a few years ago and I don't know how that started or what caused it. Could this be connected?

She has been going to the tanning bed since first of January. We had unprotected sex a couple times before she started her new birth control in February. She is 2 weeks late, I just have this feeling she is pregnant. She is in denial I think and won't take a test. She continues to go to the tanning bed. Please tell me what could happen if she is pregnant and continues to go? Can it harm the baby? Please help so I can show this to her. Thanks.
