I'm trying to replicate the effects of adderrall xr. Caffeine doesn't work well for me, and energy drinks aren't really my thing. Are there natural substances that will do the trick? What about diet pills like "yellow jackets", etc?

In chapter 12 of Leviticus, it says that a women giving birth to a boy would be unclean for 7 days and a further 33 days. If it was a female child, it was to be 14 days plus 66days..why the difference, this seems more than a little "odd" to me.
Also Leviticus chapter 15 verses 19 to 24 talk about mentruation women being unclean, and about objects she lies/sits on being unclean and anyone touching these objects or her being unclean. Why? Menstrual blood poses no greater disease transmittion risk than other blood. This seems particularly harsh and unfair, especially if God created women and gave them periods in the first place!
Am interested in hearing from anyone, but especially Christians.

CDC says most people show symptoms at around 25 days, and more than 97% by three months. Should I have tested positive by now if I was sure this person had HIV?..........i really am pretty sure she doesnt, but lets say she had it. Does it make a difference if you think the person you know has HIV then someone who you dont know, in terms of tests detecting your antibodies faster?

i was a normal healthy 19 year old girl. two years ago from today, i was in the hospital. i had mono, with hemophagocytic syndrome, which obviously led to many problems. i had ARDS, a mild staph infection, and i had some adrenal insufficiency. all due to the hemophagocytic syndrome. i was hospitalized for a month in the ICU. and i came out fine. no complications for two years now. well i did a follow up with my OB/GYN and my pap smear was abnormal but the tests came out neg. i had gotten normal periods after i got out of the hospital. no spotting in between periods, nothing that was "abnormal" to me. the last time i had my period was dec. 27th. and it was normal. i havent had a period since then. i had another pap done two weeks ago and its abnormal but tests are neg. i went in today for a pelvic ultrasound..they found no follicles on my ovaries. apparently my ovaries arent functioning.(no cysts) he also said there is an infection in my tube. but didnt gimme meds.

I usually have heavier periods, and sometimes I get cramps so bad Im almost in tears. Well this \ period (started monday) my period started out light then got heavier. The second day I had really bad cramps...I had a therma care wrap, took 2 12 hr relief midol and tried relaxing best I could and all of it helped but after being in A LOT of pain for like 3-4 hours. Yesterday and today Ive noticed there are a lot more clots then usual, some a little bigger. The cramps werent that bad if at all after that one day...is this a cause for concern you think? I have been under a lot of stress, I just lost my grandma last week Im not sure if that has anything to do with it. Im also not on any hormonal birth control. Any help would be appreciated thank you!

**Also, Ive had cysts (that were normal was just at the docs a few months ago) not sure if they affected periods or whatnot

I heard that when you juice fruits and vegetables, it takes out the fiber, which doesnt bother me because I already get more than enough fiber from other foods I eat. My question is, is fiber the only thing that is taken out, or is there other things that you get from eating them, that you dont get from drinking them. Do you still get all the vitamins and minerals when you juice them.

It's just stress. Many people I know think they have mental illnesses. They convince their psychologists that they do becuse they are convinced that they have a serious illness. Psychiatrists are ready to believe them. Stress can make you appear psychotic, depressed, manic depressive... These are just quick labels. Psychiatry is bs. What do you think?

marketing the GI drug Zelnorm??? This is the best medicine I've ever had. I just very recently got put back on it. If this is true then does anyone know of a good alternative for it?? I accidently came across the FDA website when I was checking out the pet food recalls. If this was true, wouldn't we have heard something on the news about it since it's a very popular drug??

FDA Announces Discontinued Marketing of GI Drug, Zelnorm, for Safety Reasons
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has requested that Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation of East Hanover, New Jersey, voluntarily discontinue marketing of Zelnorm (tegaserod) based on the recently identified finding of an increased risk of serious cardiovascular adverse events (heart problems) associated with use of the drug. Novartis has agreed to voluntarily suspend marketing of the drug in the United States.

Zelnorm is a prescription medicine approved in July 2002 for short-term treatment of women with irritable bowel syndr

I am 21 weeks and 5 days pregnant with my second child. with my first I didn't have genital herpes, but with with this one I do. My dr. said that he will give me anti-virals 2 weeks before and during my due date to fight off an outbreak so I won't have to have an C-section so I can have my child vaginally because i'm scared of being cut.

ok so basically, i really don't know how to do a proper push-up or a sit-up. i try to do both but because i can't do them properly i don't get the benefits. (sit ups are like me using my arms to do a sit up, i kind of swing them) also i have basically no stomach or back muscles to speak of, and my arms aren't very strong either, so additional exercising tips would be welcome

I don't want to do it, but don't know how to get help. I want to call 911 tonight or take myself to the ER because I am going to do it if I don't get help soon. Can anyone please tell me how things go down when someone calls 911 for that? Will they send the police to my house and embarrass me in front of everyone I live with (I do not want them to know), or take me away in an ambulance? Whats the procedure for walking into the ER? Seems like a silly thing to do, just to walk in and say "I'm going to kill myself." What will they do to me? Will they turn me away if I cannot pay?
