i have been diagnosed with depression however do not understand the cause of it. my mother was mentally abusive and also suffers from deppression and i was bullied for two years in and out of school. ive become more withdrawn preffering my own company as my friends dont seem to understand what im going through and just put me down. ive become more suicidal and have recently started self harming again which makes me feel better sometimes i have been reffered to councelling however its takes me a long time to open up to people as i have trust issues. i also suffer from OCD which has gotten worse over recent weeks. i really dont know what to do or were to turn.

resist scratching, but even if I can for a week I subconsciously do it in my sleep. I've been putting neosporin on bandaids but it only provides temporary relief and the bandaids have ripped off skin around my nipple and then the same yellow stuff comes out of them. My right one doesn't get infected as much but half of it has these bumps that come and go. I would appreciate any advice on what this is and how to deal with it. Thanks.

Am I healthy?
I just took my blood pressure with this machine thing or whatever and i'm not for sure waht sys/mmhg or dia/mmhg means but this is what I got

Pulse per minute- 85

98/65 (Sys/MMHG, DIA/mmhg)

I was standing by the way.

This is my status:
Weight:120lbs
Height:5ft 4.5inches
Age:16(17 in 11days)
Gender:Female
Pants size: 3-5(Rarely a five but sometimes stores have different sizes then others)

P.S. When my dad did this his Dia and Sys were really high(which is bad according to the doctor he went to a few days ago and said my dad was very unhealthy)but anyways, why is his Heart pulse lower then mine? I thought it's bad to have a really high pulse. His pulse was 82.

I work out regularly already, and I also take whey proten shakes once or twice a day. I'm pretty cut for my size, but I'm looking for something to give me a little extra edge in the weight room. What is a good dietary supplement to use? It also must be safe...No side effects (except getting huge). Thanks!

I am a medium toned african-american. my face is a little darker than the rest of my body, I believe my face is adrker because it is more exposed to the sun?

If I use sunscreen, will it just prevent it from getting darker or will it actually get rid of my sun tan/darkening?

this weeking i started feeling prettty crummy. Really tired, chills runny nose. That lasted about three days Sunday night my stuffy nose went away so i figured it was a cold but my temp went up to 102. It's been averaging 102 almost 103 for the past three days and now i have a prettty bad cough which hurts my chest pretty bad. Its deep and croupy like it's productive but but just clear/light yellowish. The cough is making my throat pretty soar and scratchy and im generally feeling worse than before. I still have the chills and have been in bed for two todays. Today my fever was 102.6, but my cough seems to be gradually worsening. It's very frequent and lasts long periods of time.
Does anyone know whats going on with me or can tell me what i have. im 18 and away at school so i can't really go see my doctor soon.

I tried to donate blood. I got a letter saying that they could not accept my blood due to the results of a positive ELIZA (HIV) test and then a Negative Western Blot (confirmatory) so basically it was a false positive. I have done plenty of research and I am nervous...because why would the eliza come out positive? They run the ELIZA twice before they run Western Blot...why would my body be producing the antibodies for hiv and not the virus? its contradictory. Plus I have never done a drug in my life and i am not a whore.

Is the herb Echinacea harmful if ingested?

Is there anything that may cause harm when using this other herb?

I'm assuming no, because there were no warnings, but you can never be too sure about these things.



Thanks For Your Help

Dear all,

I have recently started getting little bumps on my cheeks and forehead and not sure why? I went to my doctor and she changed my pill to Yasmin as she said there were good results for the skin with this pill. I have been on it for going on 2 weeks and my skin has irrupted and now instead of just little bumps I have loads of proper spots on my chin and jawline. Very upsetting...

Any comments or thoughts? Has anyone had the same effect with this pill?

Thanks and look forward to hearing from you!
