I know it won't be an overnight fix, but I've got to do something about the way I procrastinate. I've kept putting things off and now they're all piled up and I don't know how I can get them all done.

I've had a project in school for the last week and a half that is due today, but I haven't even started it. I'm supposed to build a website for someone who is paying me for it, but again I haven't started it. I was supposed to get a costume for a Halloween party, but again I haven't done that. I'm also supposed to be planning all the music for that party, but the playlist I started only has about 7 songs on it. Tons of little simple things have just gotten stacked up into one big problem.

The biggest problem is the school project though, because I've only got 2 hours to do it, and I don't think I can throw something passable together in that amount of time, but we'll see.

I'm not asking for help on the things I didn't get done, I just need help so that I don't fall behind again. Help!

I had whiplash last year, and I had an exam to write, so I just went to my campus health centre. I was treated by a physio student who didn't really know what she was doing, and was really sore afterwards. Whenever I get stressed the whiplash flares up again: the whole right side of my neck is stiff, and my neck vertebrae click when I stretch.

The stiff neck must be some kind of muscle damage, so I'd imagine a physio is better for that. I also had very good treatment for whiplash from a physio once before. But the clicking gives me the idea that one of the vertebrae is still a bit out of place. Also, it's a whole year after the accident. Does that mean I need to see a chiropractor instead?

Medical insurance will pay for either, so all I want to know is who is more qualified to deal with this.

I got a presription for the above a few years ago and it works great for the redness around my nose. i put it on in the am and the redness is gone for the day. i am running out though and the Rx is now very expensive because it is considered a compound. The rx would be over $50, but if I get a tube of cutivate and a tube of ketokonazole and mix it myself it would be only $20. The problem is I don't know what proportion to mix them in. If there are any pharmacists or doctors out there who can direct me to the right place. is it just a 50/50% mix that i can do myself? I know there is a handbook for Rx's that i can probably get online, but I need the name of the book. thanks.

I just don't get it. People say it is a disease, and then the people that have it blame it on a psychological addictiveness. I bite my nails because of a psychological addictiveness, does that mean I have a disease? Are these people just looking for sympathy for doing what they do?

Is there a such thing as a Herpes Test? My doctor said that there isn't. My girlfriend who lives out of town said she had a Herpes test & she has Type 2. I wanted to go get tested in that case & my doctor of internal medicine is saying there is not any such test. My girlfriend said that she had the Western Blot Test and my doctor said it is an Aids test. Is that true and do they really not have a Herpes Test?

Not to be rude, but why is it so looked down upon? Aren't there worse ways I could be dealing with my problems, ie being violent, eating disodered, antisocial, bottling my emotions up, etc.? What is the worst that could happen from self injury? I use anti-bacteria and bandages.

I have had bad back pain that hasnt gone away despite pain killers. My GP (who I saw today) said he was re-ferring me to see an orthapedic in the local hospital.

I told my other half, & she was talking about it to her mum & her mum said that people have to pay to see them. Is this true???

Or has she got it confused with a cariopractor?
