I am deathly afraid of getting an STD (i'm a virgin) and I know I won't get it from sex. But, I've heard people say you can get some stds just from touching people, hugging, sleeping in the same bed as someone with it. If so, can I get crabs from sitting at a desk where someone with crabs sat at school, using a public toilet seat at school or any public place, etc.? Please help.

I know that it's a stupid question..but I need to know what I'm supposed to do.
I just turned 16 last Wednesday and I am too, and I mean TOO short for my age. I guess I'm 4'8 or something like that. I didn't drink milk earlier in my life, but now I'm drinking milk mixed with chocolate powder.
Are there any exercise that I can do? I don't want to take any supplements or anything like that. I tried some of those but it never worked.
Please help!

It started with a bruise on my bicep about two weeks ago then another two bruises underneath that still haven't healed/gone away. After the bruises came some little red dots, kinda like a rash.

Then, I noticed some yellow blotches/bruises on my chest area.

Then today my girlfriend noticed I had another bruise/blotch on my neck this morning.

I've also developed a pretty heavy cough and some flu-like symptoms.

I also had hay-fever for the first time in my life last week.

Any ideas?

I was wondering if eating the skin from fish is as bad as eating the skin from chickens and pig. Is it fatty and unhealthy or the opposite?

I have never had the flu shot and I haven't gotten sick either. I always heard on the news about, "OMG! Its the flu season! Get your shots before they run out!" I honestly dont understand why so many people worry about getting sick and the hassle of having to get a shot when I just sit home; sickness free. I get the sniffules couple of months but nothing serious. Is this normal? Am I like immune?!

health problems, that there are people outhere indulging in happy, fullfilling lives, getting their needs met, getting their rocks off sexually....having fun....indulging in weird and wonderful experience..
while im battling on alone in life, trying to get the help for my mental health health problems which are bpd and ptsd..

living alone, in a lonely apartment....hardly no posessions...on welfare....never been employed......no friends.....no supportive family....no one there except your mental health team.....plus, its been like this all my life...and im 30 now..
having suffered greatly from abuse and bullying throughout your life..
surely these circumstances are a recipe for somebody to just quit, give up????

plus theres probablly people who dont like me for whatever reason, that probablly get off on my misery and failings in life...get off sexually to....turns them on.

after me and my boyfriend had sex tonight, he said that his penis burned very badly when he tried to pee. he said that this normally happens but not this bad. i tried to tell him that this is normal, but he said it hurt like never before. we are both clean people and are the only ones who have been with eachother. Does he have any reason to worry?

I have major depression and maybe a little ADHD ... but a lot of the the time, I actually feel... insane. I had bloodwork done a couple months ago, but for different reasons. If I had ADHD, would they have told me about it because of the bloodwork? I'm fairly smart and very creative, and would hate for meds to mess with my creativity. I've always been an abstract thinker, and have can hardly concentrate if something's not interesting- but when it is, I'm hooked. A lot of the time, I also feel insane. I don't really feel like I relate to many people... the one person that I ever felt I did relate to, I found out had ADHD as well. I'm not talking like hyper, just... insane about the world. Insanity that I think, stems from sadness. I find so much joy in the arts- particularly music. What are the possibilities, and what should I do about it?
