I'm afraid that I might have PCOS (Polycystic Ovaries Syndrome) but I don't want to go to the dr. about it. I have a little fear about someone getting in my personal space and I know that a dr would have to do a physical exam on me to find out what's wrong with me....but I don't want to go through that. What do you think I should do?

The other question is that I suffer from a really bad case of depression...I really do think that I have dysthymia and a major depression on top of that and I just don't wanna do anything about that either....I've been depressed for over a year and a half....do you think I should really go to the dr about these things? I'm not suicidal but I do think about death alot.

And plz no religious responses unless you're a wiccan or pagan (no offense to those other ppl that are christians).

Hey guys I have a question. I was at the checkout counter at a store, and when it was time to pay the man ringing me up I noticed he had a small cut on his finger with what appeared to be fresh blood on it. He took my credit card, swiped it and handed it back to me. I remember telling my self that there might be blood on my card, so I put it in my shorts pocket. I am now wondering if I should wash those shorts, or ust get rid of them, becasue some blood from the card may have been transfered onto the shorts. Let's assume the blood was HIV positive for arguments sake. Will washing the shorts in hot water with regular soap kill any virus, or should I just through them out and not wash them at all? Please help, I don't know what to do.
Thanks

This is what was said... "I was just cleaning just one (clothing item)... in the bath tub and the mold got all over my feet. I cleaned my feet a couple of times it still there and I am getting allergy reaction right now. .... I cannot use a fan or air condition right now because I don’t want the molds flying all over the house again after the carpet is cleaned."

How does one help this situation?

Why can't healthy foods, such as fruits and vegetables, taste as good as unhealthy foods, like cake and pizza? It seems like nature is trying to get people to eat foods that aren't good for us.

I have recently been contacted online by a former classmate letting me know about the upcoming reunion. A lot of people on the website from high school have posted life updates (for the past 10 years) and people are excited, etc. I read a couple of updates about people that mattered a little. But I kind of could care less about going to the reunion. I mean, if I were your friend, or if I cared, I would have kept in touch with you. Wouldn't I? Why do we go to these things? And then what? You see each other, you meet the kids, you exchange #s, you dont' see each other again for another 10 years....?

I was at work last night & the machine I was running jammed up, I had to pull on the plastic film very hard to get the jam away from the cutter knife, I was concentrating very hard on getting it done quickly to get the machine going again. I remember during all the pulling & yanking that at one point I know I hurt my finger but went on doing what I was doing & got it unjammed. Later I realized It really hurt although I could bend my finger at the knuckle. Tonight it is still really sore & swollen a little & red(it hurts under my fingernail but not my fingernail, and also right above the last knuckle next to my middle finger & now my knuckle if very stiff & sore when I try to bend it.

because there is this girl on here who in the past 3 months has seriously asked at least 800 questions about her ex. she has at least three differant profiles so she can do so. now, this wouldnt bother me normally but she only dated this guy for a month! i am begining to think she needs actuall help from a person trained to do so, like a therapist or something. but is there a way to make her realize what she is doing is spam? i tried nicely a couple times to suggest that she might need help OUTSIDE of yahoo answers, and she deleted any questions i answerd as such. what can be done? a couple other people have realized that he is all she ever asks about, so i know im not the only one who has noticed this. it is really worrysome to me, and i would like to find a way to get her to realize she might need help beyond what we can offer here.

First, I'm not suicidal. I don't sit around thinking of taking my own life. Life is pretty good at the moment. But there is a part of me that feels that if someone, for example, told me I only have a month to live I would feel tremendous relief. I also sometimes get little twinges of chest pain that are probably nothing, but I almost hope that I'm having a heart attack. I sometimes feel like I would be better off dying before I lose the things and the people close to me- my parents, my husband, etc. Does anyone else ever feel this way? What can I do to make sense of all of this.

And I'm not a religious person so, please, no preaching.
