From the age of 14, at which I was my present heighth to now, I have never been able to bench press more than 60 lbs--and that only w/ someone spotting me. I've known women and girls of 4'11"to 5'5" who bench 90.

Is this unusual? I'm 5'7", slim, but have been told I have a hormonal imbalance --bit too much estrogen. I don't feel whimpy as I did when I was a kid, but I am curious.

Sex about 4 years ago(it was without my consent, and I hate saying the R word). Three years I had been seeing this guy and decided to have sex because I wanted and because no one was frocing me to do it. Well after that i've had like a zillion pap smears. My first one in NoV 2003 the gyne only tested me for bacterial and HIV. Came back neg. I was still freaking out and decided to get tested again for everything! in 2004 march. I was seeing a diff gyne already. Everything came back fine. Then in 2005 I had a pap smear and everything came back fine. Now 2007, I got a new doc, the clinic just put me with a new doc, and says you have hsv2. I was sad so ******* sad. Then I got over it. Then a girl did a presentation on HPV. U can't detect that one through blood. Now that I have the herps =( is like, my mind is making me think I have everything! So hpv! can you have normal paps, but at the same time have hpv? My next pap is tuesday!

I went on a very low calorie diet for about 3 months i took in between 400 and 600 calories a day, I lost 41 pounds. Before i went on that diet i felt fine i had no problems, And one day a pain that felt like a heart attack woke me up out of my sleep, This happend about 6 times, The doctor thinks that it is my galbladder from rapid weight loss. I haven't done the tests because i have no insurance and i want to wait. Ever since then i feel like there is something not right with me, I don't feel normal i always have a headache, I am so tired all the time even with a good night sleep, I am a hypocondriact to some degree, But it seems like it has gotten worse since the pain has started now i go to bed everynight thinking i wont wake up. Thinking that i am going to die. Could this all just be in my head? and where my thoughts are always focused on whats wrong my body is making me feel this way?

I went out for a walk tonight, part of the way through i decided to sprint for about a minute, after i stopped sprinting, i developed a sharp pain in my chest and my breathing was much more difficult than it should've been for the little ammount of exersize i did. about 15 minutes later, after i had returned to my room and was relaxing, the pain had almost subsided, but every time i tried to draw a breath, it took quite a bit of effort, almost like my throat was smaller and i had to pull harder to get the same ammount of air. eventually all my ailments went away, but this is the second time this has happened, ive read up on heart attacks as well as other things, and it doesnt seem like any of them, im 18 years old and mildly active.

I know that when losing weight, eating right and excercise pretty much go hand in hand. What are important things I need to know about eating healthy? What should I eat more of? How should I portion out my meals? Do the times I eat matter? Different things like that. These questions are some examples of things I want to know. Please feel free to give as much info as you see necessary.

I just started Kariva a month ago. I immediately gained five pounds and acne (which was previously only a problem before my period). That was bad enough, but now in the last week I am finding myself so fatigued I can barely get out of bed. It was my "period" week and I've gotten tired around my period before, but not like this, and not for so long. I am so unbelievably tired! (I have twins to take care of, so this is NOT a good thing!). This only occurred in my final week of the pills. My questions are: has anyone else experienced this? Is this going to go away? Is there another brand (maybe non-generic) I should try?

all these pills
I am seeing a psychiatrist every 2 or 3 months
and yes I have attempted suicide before and I was
sent to this hospital psychiatric unit for 2 weeks

If you had the option of knowing whether or not you had a depilating disease like Huntington's, would you prefer to live your life with or without that knowledge

My boyfriend and I got in a huge arguement tonight. He said I can be "a real ***** sometimes". This just hit me right in the heart. We never fight unless I'm PMSing, and I've got REALLy bad PMS. It didn't really effect my relationships with friends and family, but now that I have a boyfriend, it is really taking a tole on our relationship. He gets so angry at me when I get upset, angry ,and emotional at something he did or said. he even gets upset when i get emotional over something that's not related to him. I understand why he gets upset, but I have absolutely no control over my behavor. I'm usually so sweet and can handle myself well. I never over react badly to things... except when I'm PMSing. It is getting really bad.

What can I do to control myself? It happens at the same time every month. My boyfriend said, "why don't you just shut yourself away from everyone when you get like that" but he doesn't understand. I can't seem to do that.

Does anyone have any tips?

I've never heard of someone who has overeaten compulsively for years, WITHOUT PURGING or getting rid of the food like bulimics, suddenly becoming anorexic at this late age. Isn't this an unusual case? Most anorexics adopt that lifestyle way before their 30's. How and why would someone go from one extreme to the next so late in life?
