Health - 27 October 2007

Ok, so i have been diagnosed and treated for depression, anxiety, bipolar, and self mutilation. I'm 19 years old so my insurance has run out. I need care. I need to know if there are therapists or group therapies that don't require insurance and isn't outrageously over priced. I don't make that much money. But i seriously need help....it's starting to effect my life in ways that i cant let it. Pleast help.

I used to have a stuttering problem as a child, and went to speech therapy for it. It has since went away. However, now for the past 4 or 5 years have had trouble saying my name. I know my name, but when people ask me in person or if meet them, I freeze up or try to say it and stammer badly. The same thing happens when I use the phone. If people ask me my name, for some reason I can't say it and it makes me look stupid or people look at me weird.

Are there any tips that you can give me to help me with this problem? I am a confident person and I want to overcome this obstacle. Have any of you had this problem before? Is it anxiety? Please help me if you can. Thank you for your answers...:)

- Steven.

My penis is about 5.5 inches long. Is that short? Average? Cause I'm thinking about joining football and I don't want to be made fun of by the other kids in the showers.

My most recent MRI scan revealed the most undesirable results, but I am unable to view the images on my computer, as I did previously. I was told to just put the disk in the drive and it would auto play. Any ideas on how to view these images would be most helpful. Thanks...

Why are, apparently ⅛ of you suicidal? The full moon was two nights ago. Halloween isn't for four more nights. What's the problem here?

Granted, this is my first Saturday Night at "Yahoo! Answers"
Are there always this many suicidal folks to save from themselves, or is this a especial night?

I feel weird and disconnected all the time. But at school and in public I can't be how I feel, if I'm sad I act happy and smiling. For all emotions, sometimes when people ask what's wrong I can't say anything becuase they know I"m lying if I say fine. I don't know what to do about it. When I try ot approach and talk about it with a close friend they think I'm joking and start talking about something else. And it's like that for all of them!
Also I got a call from my aunt Jackie, who moved along with a lot of my family, and also got a letter. I could feel the emotion welling up, but nothing came out until I heard her voice. And I still couldn't tell her how I felt.
HELP ME!
What can I do to be able to open up and tell people what I'm feeling and stuff? And how can I make myself seem more approachable for other girls, as friends, and guys, as friends or more or whatever?

I have been trying to lose weight for about -3- years now . I started to beat depression , but it helped me get into shape and that became my main objective . : ) And I am not complaining , because I have lose a significiant amount of weight all between that period . But I still have those last few Pounds to go . And No matter HOW i think about it , i Feel as if I can Never lose all my weight . I have a small beer belly now . This is my final battle .
I am trying to lose it . But I am afraid If the thought will come back into my mind and beat me down . I dont' want that to happen . But anyway , Why do you think I always think that I can never ever completely lose my excess weight ?
Is this more psychological than anything to do with motivation ?

Its not really my tooth, its my gums. They hurt. I had this before and it went away. Should I just wait. Dont say go to the dentist, they were the ones who did this. Any tips on how to focus on something else, playing videogames helps a little.

ok.. soo i know i have a problem but not serious enough to be sent away for.

first off im gunna say DONT judge me and DONT question

just answer

my problem is that i have to be thin to be happy
i am a tall girl and for me its all about #s when it comes to being thin
so for me to weigh 100 is disgusting even 110 is gross to most people but if i was shorter i could weigh that

soo i like weighig around 110 or so to feel good about myself u know but my mom lately has been angry with me

she says if i dont gain weight she will send me to rehab for eating disorders or institutionalize me for being unbalanced

i am not lying when i say this i am NORMAL . i am an average teenage girl
the only different slightly weird thing about me is THAT i am thin and i dont starve myself or workout or throw up i just eat 2000 calories a day and weigh myself so i like how i look

please tell me how to get past this and help my mom see eye to eye without making her more angry

He's only 28 years old and had these episodes where his heart beats really fast but it usually doesn't last that long.
The doctors can't figure out what's causing it but today the heart rate went as high as 300 beats/minute. He's been having chest pains this past week also. Today he was admited to the ER and was given Beta-Blockers and that slowed it down but not below 200 beats/minute though.
Has anyone experience this or knows what's going on?

I know they normally heal from the bottom up. Will this heal from the back to the front? I see a little black in the "bottom" is that the clot? It is hard to tell under the white tissue. I am 3 weeks into my healing process. Will the clot be absorbed or fall out? Not sure how it works. Thanks!
