There's this girl in my school, really nice, a good friend, and she seems normal and healthy. But she has this strange thing going on with her butt. The center of her lower back, just above her butt, sticks out suddenly. Her butt doesn't even seem to be there. Its kinda like a big boney hump in her lower back. Its very strange and it makes her look like she's waddling from side to side. Sometimes i think its a tail or something but no one really knows what the hell it is!!! Any ideas?

Look, my husband is coming back in a month from now. I dont really understand how to use contraceptive pills. I know that it has 21 pills, some of them have 28, that is with the placebo thing, but i have a question. Since I am not having sex now, and that would still be after a month, should i really start taking pills this month?
Let's say my period is expected to fall this 19th-23rd of oct. and let's say my husband will arrive this 23rd of nov till the 1st week of december, about three weeks, how should i start my pill? Please explain to me very well. He insisted that i must take it a month before the expected contact, but i thought i could take it anytime like a week before our contact.
I want ot make sure bcoz i don't want my mistake to cause abonormality to my baby if in case. I don't think i am also ready to have a baby right now bcoz we have just got married. Besides, it is hard for me to travel in some months to another country when i am preggy. Could you help me on this?

I just got prescribed citalopram (40mg) and usually about two nights a week I go out and get wasted. I know they say you shouldn't drink while taking this, but I look forward to hitting the bars all week long. Even if I don't drink a lot, I'd like to be able to have at least six or seven beers and a couple of shots. I was talking to some guy at a party one time who said he was on zoloft and whenever he knew he was going out for a big night of drinking he just didn't take his meds that day. So I'm thinking that's what I'll try. I've gone without this stuff for a while now so if I miss a day or two I don't think it'll be a problem, but I just wanted to see what you guys think would be the best idea.

Ok i have depression or bipolar or pmdd idk whatever one it is but theyre all pretty much the same right? you wanna die. ugh well i feel terrible, im reallly scinical about everything, if someone tells a nice story i bring up the bad things about it and i put everyone down so they see things how i do. ppl are starting to get annoyed of it now and are telling me.
well the thing is i know that i have this illness but i'm so scinical about life that i dont see the point in getting any better. whats the point if im going to die anyway? why not just get it over with sooner. also i have to will anymore. i dont want to do well in school but i have this irrational fear of failing so i force myself to try. im ocd, i cut, and im anorexic, jeez thats a lot but the thing is i dont have the will to get better. i also dont want to talk to anyone about this especially my mother. i have a terrible relationship with her and it would never work. i really dont kno why im writing this.

i have a really unusual problem: i'm turning everything orange! really! at one point a few months ago my green towels started getting orange blotches on them that looked like bleach spots, so i assumed i must have gotten something on them, even though i hadn't bleached anything lately. then about 6 of my shirts started getting similar blotches, and then even the foam part of my earphones turned this bright bright orange. after i take a shower my mom says she's noticed an orange ring around the bathtub drain... and the strings on some of my pants have been doing the same thing. i'm 13, i don't eat anything weird, not if you don't count a lot of pickles and black olives. i don't sweat a lot. what could be causing this problem? no doctors my mom's taken me to has been able to figure it out yet... they just end up saying "weird... are you SURE it's not face wash or shampoo or bleach or something?" lol. anything you might MAYBE think could be happening is very much appreciated... thx... lol

My wife and I have a very open and honest relationship and she tells me that she has never masturbated and she has never tried it even when she was young because she thinks its nasty.

Do you think for she is lying and for some strange reason ashamed to tell me this even though she tells me everything else?

BTW it was never against her religion and comes from a non strict family that would never told her that it is wrong.

I had a abscess that was the result of MRSA on my lower buttocks removed about a week ago. I have removed my packing, and it has been six days since the packing has been removed. It is healing very nicely, the hole that was there has filled in with healthy tissue. I keep a sterile bandage over it at all times, and wash it once a day in the shower with antibacterial soap as my doctor instructed me to.

However, as its been healing, MAN, has it been itchy! I find myself having to rub on the bandage vigurously to soothe the itch. I know this is coming from healing, but I wanted to know if I can put any kind of antibacterial ointment on it, primarily to soothe the itch, but at the same time, aid with healing. My doctor said it was not necessary to put ointment on the wound, and I wouldn't want to, but I just know I want to put SOMETHING on it because it itches so bad.

Thanks!

Does anyone have weird, strange, crazy dreams during the night? It might have something to do with the CA new laws. I guess IDIOTS figured out a way to make illegal drugs using this product. Sense they made the drug companies remove that chemical, it has been crazy. What about you?
