let's say someone knew they had schizophrenia wouldn't they be able to just ignore the delusions and hallucinations and cure themselves by just not paying attention to the thoughts?

I'm not a big on alcohol in general, but I sometimes want to just unwind, but I feel bad if I'm drinking alone, because I'm afraid that makes me seem like an alcoholic or something. I know it seems odd, but I'm very alone, in another country, my husband is ALWAYS gone because i'm a military spouse, so I just wanna know if that seems wrong? Should I have a glass of wine every once in awhile, although I'm alone? Is that normal??

I am 20 years old, about three years ago I went past any measurement on the 20/20 scale but fortunately was still able to wear high prescription glasses. A couple of weeks ago I went to an optometrist and she said the my prescription dropped past -14.00 and she was going to try different prescriptions so i could at least function some what normally in every day life. I have tried twice with her, the first time with her prescription, one of my eyes failed completely and would not work with the prescription. After the second trial, I still can't see (I see better with my old prescription) and am now constantly straining ( have horrible peripheral and have a hard time focusing no matter what I wear) I am going to an opthomalogist but I realize only a very few select brands actually go that high in prescription and I might not be able to fully correct my vision. What will they do? I have no eye diseases but no one can explain to my why my eyesight is so horrible and is still dropping.

I take most of these at night. Plus I take the sleeping pill Rozerem.

Would I just skip my daily dose? I don't want to skip it but I don't want to get sick.

I was wondering if it was possible to store your farts, like in a bag or container? I know this question is disgusting, but I'm just curious! I saw it on a Simpsons episode once.

I am a 22-year-old male who has an enlarged lymph node in the left side of my neck. No blood samples had been taken as it was deemed an unnecessary measure (unless they grew or spread). One very large node has been around since I was 5yrs old, so my parents have informed me… I am a heavy smoker and have been for the past 7 yrs, roughly 2-3 packs a day. Unfortunately, it has started spreading to other nodes and now I have 4 of them on the left side of my neck. I am exhausted, and I seem to have a fever with heavy sweating while I sleep. All information alludes to some form of cancer and I absolutely refuse any type of radioactive/chemical treatments, as I would rather die. Can anyone give me any advice? Nor will I go to the doctor that would just run up medical bills for my family and I’d probably die after it was all said and done anyway. To hell with that… Any Organic Herbal remedies? Or am I just SOL.

Here are some examples.
I have to check that my door is unlocked like 15 times before I can sleep even though I know it is unlocked, I have to make sure I turn my cell phone is turned off before school like ten times, even though I know it is off. I open my purse every two seconds to make sure my valuables are still in it, I check my purse every two seconds to make sure its zipped all the way, I carry hand sanitizer with me at all times, and if I don't have access to it , I have a hard time touching any part of my body, everything on my desk at school has to be lined up perfectly, I panic at the smallest things, and also people annoy me like listening to them eat and watching them eat and them watching me eat. I also have random thoughts in my head like if drugs weren't harmful would everybody take them? I have a song in my head every day and sometimes I get certain sentences or phrases stuck in my head. Could this be OCD?

Ok, school is starting tomorrow and this summer I have been dealing with anxiety and panic attack problems that were brought on by a medication I was taking. I went to the doctor and am now on Lexapro for my anxiety problems. I have been on the meds for 2 weeks and feel a little better and a little more in control but I am still having some problems. Anytime I am in a crowded area like a store and forced to stay for some reason or another I have a panic attack. Now that I am on the medicine I am in a little more control so the panic isn't as severe, but since school is starting I know I am going to be stuck in a classroom and I am worrying that the panic is going to return. My biggest issue is that when I panic I feel like I am going to be sick so that makes me worry more, even though I never do actually get sick. I am taking nexium for my stomach aches but was wondering if anyone had any advice on how to deal with the feeling sick when in a public place and unable to get away. Thanks.

What in your opinion are some of the benefits of drinking water?

I mean, if intelligent design is true, then it doesn't seem very intelligent to make people so sensitive in non-essential parts of their body, like their teeth and under their nails...and leave vital parts like their brain without sensation. Wouldn't it be more intelligent to give us teeth like sharks, that grow after the old ones fall out, rather than giving us only two sets?

And if evolution is true, how come we still only get two sets of teeth, and painful ones at that, after all those centuries of the survival of the fittest? What on earth is the evolutionary advantage conferred by toothache? I mean I can understand why your finger feels pain--so you won't leave it in the fire or whatever. But your teeth?

Maybe they're both wrong--the theists and the evolutionists-- and it was aliens who started the whole thing (ones with a perverted sense of humor perhaps...)

Back in April I went to the Minneapolis VA for my psych evaluation for disability. During the interview the psychiatrist already assumed I was full of BS before I even started talking. He continueously forgot my dates of service and I had to remind him many times that I was active army and not national guard.
The real kicker was when I used the term "extrovert" to describe whatever I was talking about, he stopped me and told me that he didn't understand the term!? After that I lost all faith in his knowledge of his area.
I mean HOLY $%#! thats a high school level psychology term. There is no excuse for that kind of incompetence in his field of "expertise". The VA is just like the army, they get everything at the lowest bidder.
