Serious Answers only please!!!

I have a friend who's 3 yr old has an extreme obsession with laundry soap bottles...likes to play with them and carries them around the house like a security blanket. He also takes 2-3 baths each day (not sure if he likes to play in the water or if he's wanting to be clean?). And it's not just laundry soap bottles, he also likes cleaning supply bottles like windex and the like (keep in mind these are all empty when he plays with them so no poisoning risks ok).

So I'm wondering does he have weird pschological problems or is it just strange parent behavior? The mom is sick of the soap bottles but won't get rid of them bc her kid throws a fit. Extra info, the boy doesn't seem to be very social, will play around other kids but not with other kids. Also seems to have little if any imagination.

Any thoughts? If you are a psych professional, please let me know what's going on with this kid. I think he needs to be evaluated

I am a diabetic of 10+ years. I am afarid I might be feeling something diabetics go through but I am not sure. I currently don't have insurance and that is why I have not gone to the doctor. I suddenly have a pain on the bottom of my foot when I touch or stand on that nerve. I thought it was my shoes since I am now working at an office that requires us tho wear dress shoes. I see no signs of bruising or anything of that sort. I have currently only used tennis shoes thinking it will help. It only hurts when I touch that specific nerve, anybody been through a similar situation? I am afraid this might have to do with my diabeties. In 1 month my insurance will start and I will be able to ask the doctor, but any usefull info would be appreciated.

I'm 23 years old and my acne has never been so bad! I watch what I eat, get 7-8 hours of sleep each night, my dermatologist recently put me on Minocyclin... The acne is still there... It even seems worse now. I've been on the medicine for a little over two weeks. I feel that it should be cleared. Any remedies I haven't tried? Help!

My friend had a beetle crawl into his ear and I'm looking for novel ideas on how to get it out. Be creative... Personal injury is not a concern (i.e. use an ice pick and stab the beetle until he is dead) is an alright method for getting said beetle out of said ear. Most creative answer that might work will get the points!!

I am having the worst pain on the right side of my uterus. I just had my period 2 weeks ago, so I dont think a tubal pregnancy is possible, unless its possible to have a tubal pregnancy and have your period? Is that possible? I have had cysts before so thats a possibility as well, although this feels different.

After 3 years of treatment to have them straightened, and they are still noticeably crooked, my dentist now says that there is nothing else that can be done, and i would have to pay an additional $3000 to further treatment, is there anything that can be done?? I have rights dont i? They basically took my money and ran. For the record, my teeth were not even that bad for the initial treatment to take 3 years.

I have a lot of chronic problems--hypothyroidism, high blood problems and a rascally case of depression that just won't be treated right now. I've tried all the meds, I've tried all the combinations of meds, and I'm miserable and stuck (not a joke). Have you tried acupuncture? Do you think it would help my situation?
