my family recently found out my young teenage sister has been cutting herself. She has the "emo" look, and I dont know if that's what it is... But she had lied to us and told us the dog scratched her, but we realized that it's way too straight- later on, she admitted to cutting herself with my pocketknife (which is extremely dull, so she probably had to hack away at herself). Mom wants to make her grow her hair out from the "emo hair" and stop buying her the "emo look", as well as send her to counseling. My sister refuses to go to counseling (though mom will make her go anyways), and thinks it's no big deal.
Since adopting her "look", she has made everyone (except her bad, school skipping, swearing, partying friends) her enemy.

she refuses to tell us why she did it.

so.... how do we handle this? my first feelings are to make comments and tease her... But I know that's not going to be a smart thing...

ideas on how a sibling copes w/ the cutting younger sibling? im nearly 16, shes 14

My doctor told me that surgeons won't perform a breast reduction untill the patient is at least 18, but she said she would look to see if one does it at 16. Do you know of any that do it for 16 year olds?

After years on the pill, I've switched to the Nuva Ring. I'm on my 4th month with it, and I have to say, while I like the concept. It's just not for me! What have you tried and why did you or didn't you like it? Please exclude the Depo Provera shot. Been there and hated that, too! ugh, maybe I'm just too picky.

Okay, vitamin b-17, known as laetrile will prevent you from ever getting cancer if taken 7 times a day. Why in studies have patients never developed cancer while taking vitamin b-17, namely apricot seeds. http://www.1cure4cancer.com/ - also why would the FDA ban laetrile, and even raw apricot seeds if they did nothing? BECAUSE THEY CANNOT COPYRIGHT IT, AND IF PEOPLE ARE ABLE TO USE THIS TO GET RID OF CANCER, THEY WILL LOSE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS A YEAR. The FDA is run by the big pharma which wants money, and any tests run by doctors to assure this works, will be shut down and hidden. When the B17 comes into contact with cancer cells, there is no Rhodanese to break it down and neutrelise it but instead, only the enzyme Beta-Gucosidase is present in very large quantities. When B17 and Beta-Glucosidase come into contact with each other, a chemical reaction occurs and the Hydrogen Cyanide and Benzaldehyde combines synergistically to produce a poison which destroys and kills the cancer cells.

I have been sick since Tuesday, and have just gotten worse. I have a severe sore throat, chest pain, difficulty breathing, blood in my mucus occasionally, vomiting, trouble swallowing, and my resting heartbeat is a lot faster than it usually is....any idea if there is something wrong with me/I should go get checked out? I'm under 18, so I need my parents to take me to the hospital or doctor, but I am not sure if it is necessary

I just ate 3 cookies, not big but I felt nauseous, like I shouldn't have cookies, yet its "time of month" soon and I can't control myself. I felt like telling myself "eat less junk, exercise more and u will be 125 pound by March". Isn't that bad for me to worry that lot? And I'm afraid that I might get sick because I sometimes feel like I got to throw up the food but the school counselor will have to tell my parents and I don't know how they will react because my mom was bulimic so I don't want her angry or sad. Help
