Health - 22 April 2007

I am think I am. I worry all the time about things and it usually will take up my day and make it so miserable. I don't care to hang out with friends, just my boyfriend. I don't liek big crowds. I have a low feeling most of the day. I change moods every hour and I have been going through for a long time. I am just now deciding to do something about it before nursing school starts this fall. My mom is going to try to get me some pills from her doctor or I will get them myself. Also, what do you recommend? My mom heard a ad on tv that is suppose to be really good and it started with a P. It wasn't prozac-i heard that stuff really can make you crazy. Thanks~

I told my orthodontist whom is also a dentist that i had gone to an orthodontist prior to him and she had told me that i was going to have teeth pulled out. but then i moved which is how i ended up with the orthodontist i have right now and he told me that no teeth need to be pulled out... yet my bottom teeth are very crowded and i even have a short chin... is it because my bottom teeth are crowded? or could it be something else causing my short chin? so should i suggest he pull my teeth out to get rid of my short chin, that is my main concern. oh and i currently only have top braces.

How can it be possible for one to reduce and live mostly normal without professional assistance with professionals? I swear medication makes it totally worse for me. The worst was Paxil, it only helped with the compulsuions and obsessions. I've been finding that participating in my hobbies and pursuing things I enjoy/want to do keeps me much calmer, satisfied, and happier. I don't nearly obsess or have compulsions like I had, but am not so sure about the Effexor. There's too many side effects and the headaches really get to me. I'm considering going off the medication.

I used to smoke cigarettes and smoke weed regualry and about 8 months ago i got a new job.. when i started school after that summer i wasnt able to smoke weed anymore because i would and still do get horrible panic attacks. i also started getting chest pains regulary. I quit smoking everything and started living a healthy lifestyle but i still get these chest pains. Its been about 7 months now and they arnt getting any better. My doctor told me that it could be anxiety and im getting some tests done but im not sure because i only get anxiety attacks when i smoke weed.. otherwise i only have smaller attacks that arnt half as bad. I have however been stressed out beyond since the begining of this school year and im wondering if the stress could be the reason why i experience chest pains.

I was rear-ended by a drunk driver in May 2005; he hit me, while I was stationary at a red light, going approximately 55-60 mph. Since then, my life has changed drastically.

After an MRI and a slew of other tests, it was shown that I have five herniated discs, one stacked on top of the other, in my lumbar region. The largest bulge was 9 mm into the spinal cord, whereas the other four were at 5 mm. Needless to say, the pain is intense on a 24 hour basis.

My question is this, to all those who have, or are currently suffering with chronic pain, are you tired of doctors treating you like drug addicts looking for your next fix? I know I am. :)
