About five days ago, suddenly I felt a severe pain in my lower chest. It would start of mild and get increasingly worse (would take about 5 seconds), and then it would reduce again. It sometime happens out of the blue, sometimes when eating or drinking. I went to se a pharmasist yesterday, who said see a Doctor now (I did not bother). Someone said it may just be indigestion, but for 5 days, it seems a long time. Any suggestions

I seem to have WICKED heavy periods at night...I use a tampon and super thick pad. I also lay down a piddle pad so blood doesnt stain my sheets. Somehow though I get it so heavy that it leaks through the tampon, covers the pad completely and all on the piddle pad! So what can I do, besides getting meds for it?

I masturbate about 5 times a week and feel some discomfort when I urinate and just when I'm relaxing. Is this from masurbating too much?

Note: I am a healthy person, who exercises and plays baseball weekly. I have no diseases and am not sexually active besides masturbating.

My 14 year old son has always been a very individualistic kid. He's introverted but a real thinker. On the other hand he is a weak student. His relationship with me (his mother) has always been very strong, but sometimes people say that I pamper him (e.g. he still calls me "mommy"). A year ago I divorced his father. Since then he hasn't really changed in behaviour. The family of his father does everything to spoil him though. They also pressure him to study. In general his family is warm and always showed that they cared. Last week something changed. After sleeping over at his aunt he came back in a hyper mood. He started talking non-stop, saying incoherent things, refusing to sleep. This has been going on now for a week to the extent that my ex and my sister in law (his aunt) are staying over to keep an eye on him. My son says he feels powerful and often he talks in a combattant way.
Does my son have a psychosis and if yes, can this be temporary? Or is there more at play here

--that you don't need support and comfort from a certain person, that you can survive more than fine on your own. Even though, you will still care about him or her and will try to not hold any grudges.
