My mind constantly flip flops from pure positivity to negativity. From love to suicide. Im contemplating my life. It sounds silly and embarassing but it is a constant struggle. I do not do drugs, have lots of friends, a happy family life, I am a successful artist, I am only 22 etc. When I comprehend the terrible things in the world like hunger, war, etc. it just feels like there is no point. I hate the idea of being born, getting a job, having a family and dying old. It just seems so pointless. I was raised religious but in the past few years have lost all of my faith and no longer believe in God. I know I need help and struggle to gain the courage to ask but know I don't want any religious advice, that part of my life is gone.I convince myself that I should commit suicide but on the way home get a cup of coffee to keep going because I am tired.Do you see the paradox there?It is like the two halves of my brain can't agree. Almost out of time, need some ideas...

My 16 month old is going in for a sweat test tomorrow to test for Cystic Fibrosis. Does anyone know what % of children around that age that go in for the test come out as positive for CF? Thanks for your help.

I've tried willpower and some suggestions but they don't work, and all my mom says is 'Don't do it' which doesn't really help.

There are months when I just want to curl up in a ball because the menstral cramps are so bad and there are other months where I don't feel any cramps or discomfort. Why is that? Thank you to those who answer!

My son has epilepsy, Tourette's and ocd. For the last 4 years he has been very irresponsible about taking his antiseizure meds. Last night he had a grand mal seizure and busted his forehead which required 9 stitches and he also dislocated his shoulder . This was the worst seizure so far. He had another one in Feb in the shower and also dislocated his shoulder. He is on the dean's list at the local community college and is not that stupid. I am at wit's end.

I have acute bronchitis. The last few days I started to get very bad lower left side pains. I thought it was just due to all the strain of hard coughing. However, yesterday I coughed hard and I felt a POP in my side and it temporarily went numb, then felt like someone had stabbed and kicked me there. SO bad I couldnt stand straight. Its lower left side, around hip and lower side abdomen/rib area.Its not getting better, but worse feeling. Have I just torn a ligament or what?

I'm 16yr old female and in a nursing class, one day we had a guest speaker come in from a burn unit and were told to eat a good breakfast (which I did) since some pictures were graphic. I was fine until the last few minutes and all of a sudden I got really light-headed and started sweating and gagging. I didn't even think the picture was that gross.
Then, we went to the hospital and I was just standing there (no weird smells or anything) and I started to feel like I was going to faint. And a third time I got slightly light-headed but managed to control it. I also had slight cramps a few days ago, but figured it was due to my period which was suppose to come the next day but hasn't yet. I know I can't be pregnant, so any ideas of what it could be? By the way, almost everything happened during my morning class.

I know they want Americans to remain health conscious these days but why all of a sudden? The FDA and medications have killed people for years. How do we really know the organic food that says organic on the product is really organic?

Please don't advise to loud up on caffine. I've been tired since I was a little kid. I've even had blood work done and nothing comes out wrong. I exercise, take vitamins and try to sleep on a normal schedule but still I fight fatigue all the time.....and no I'm not depressed. I'm actually a very happy person. That is---when I'm awake.

The ceiling is not tiled or anything, just flat like the walls. There is a leak in the ceiling from the roof. I went to get a pot to put it under the leakage and a drip of water splashed into my eye. So now I am worried. Could there be any asbestos in the ceiling? Do all houses have asbestos? I am not sure when this house was built because I am renting.
And could I now have cancer because of that?
I'm so scared!

Serious answers please! So please only answer if you know!

Thanks a lot!
