This is very worrying for a boy like me. What should my diet be? How long should I exercise? I can spare only about 60 - 90 minutes a day for it. What is the best remedy for me? I MUST reduce to at least 120 - 110 pounds before mid - July.

...educate themselves about HIV/AIDS more? Sorry to rant, but everybody seems to think that you can gets HIV just from kissing!

I'm a sanguinarian, which plainly means that I drink human (NEVER animal) blood from willing donors. Humans have been doing it for thousands of years. I educated myself and found out that--

--you can't get HIV from an infected person by drinking their blood unless you both have large, bleeding mouth wounds;
--kissing never gave anybody HIV;
--sex, transfusions, and dirty needles (and being born with HIV) are the only ways;
--HIV dies almost instantly with contact to open air;
and
--hugging, holding/shaking hands, etc. never gave anyone HIV.

*Yes we practice safety-- no unsterilized blades, and no one donates without blood tests (in case of other infectious diseases)*

So why can't people out there get real, get educated, and stop shying away from infected persons. Give an HIV positive person a hug, I'm sure it will make their day!
Thoughts?

I'm quite in a shape, but i would like to have legs thinner than i do at the moment... I am dieting and as a result cellulitte is already in the past for me, but my legs ( especially the upper part) are not slim enough as i would like them to be. What exercises would you recommend to minimise tigh and leg circumference? It is said that there are not only exercises that help build muscles but also the type of exercises that stretch up muscles and as a result can lead to a slim and even skinny leg shape. The last ones are exactly what i need!

I've used ortho tri cyclen lo for 3 months. For the past 2 weeks I've taken the pill at different times of the afternoon: 2pm, 8pm, 11pm. I even missed one day and took it the next day. I'm now on the placebo pills which are just the reminder pills (I don't even take the placebo pills, I just throw them out, one every day). Could I get pregnant while on the reminder pills if I was inconsistent like that in the past 2 weeks?

Nothing rational, I've tried rationalizing myself out of this hellhole.

Everyone and everything is going to die. I'm going to die, my sister is going to die, my mother, my father, my boyfriend, my cat, trees, birds, worms.

I'm angry at my parents, for making me exist in the first place when it's pointless and is just going to end.

I'm scared, because I'm an agnostic atheist. I've examined every other viewpoint but I just end up there. I don't think there's an afterlife but what if there is? I don't think I'd be bothered at all if I truly believed in a deity, that I was going to live forever.

I wish I hadn't been born in the first place. I'm only 15 and I've been going to bed every night, wishing I won't wake up because I just don't feel like existing anymore. My life is great. I'm healthy, my family loves me, my boyfriend loves me, I have an education. Doesn't matter, because I'm just going to die.

Hello,

I get this maybe once every week or so where as I am falling asleep I can't move or feel my body and I also can't breathe. It feels as if something sucked all the energy out of me. I can feel the numbness take over my body. It is very scary because you cannot take a breath while this happens.

It takes a lot of mental effort to come out of it (usually I can within 15 seconds), but I have to concentrate on waking myself up!!!! It's a very strange thing that I cannot explain. It's like I have to retake control of my brain!

While this happens I am fully awake and can see the room around me, just can't move.

I feel one day I might not be able to wake up before I suffocate. I just saw one doctor, she said it could just be anxiety, but I'm not buying it. Unfortunately, my health coverage doesn't start until July so I can't even go for a sleep study yet.

I've had this for about 5 months now. I was hoping others could shed some insight on this. Thank You much! -Adam
