I don't want this to become a pattern for me. After the holidays I feel like I am dragging myself everywhere. I lose excitement and interest. I feel like I'm going in circles and I begin to stutter. I lose energy and weight. How can I prevent it. I want to stay energized, in a good mood, and healthy.

Im getting braces in a few weeks and I was wondering if they hurt when they put them on.
I had the little rubber band spacers put in and it hurts really bad while they put them on and afterfor me =[
I know you get a little sore after the braces are put on, but what about the process of them getting put on?
Does it hurt really bad while they get put on?

Help!

Do you think my doctor will prescribe me tretinoin even though my acne isn't that severe. I don't have a lot of pimples, but just little bumps every here and there. I've been prescribed tretinoin before, but that was last year when I had REALLY REALLY bad acne.

I want to use it again just to prevent acne. I also want to use it to treat my discolored skin and discolored laugh lines(it's darker than the rest of my face probably due to sun damage)

Also are there any side effects to tretinoin because I read on a site that some doctors may be hesitant to prescribe tretinoin because of its side effects.

Thanks in advance and all answers will be appreciated.

Alright, so I am 14, have a pretty average/athletic build, fairly tall, about 5' 11" and growing fast. By January I would like to have abs, is this possible? Right now I am running about 4-5 miles a day and lifting weights 3 days a week. I have a pretty good diet and drink primarily water. With daily sit-ups, is it possible to get abs by January, if not, when should I expect to see them using the same plan listed above? At times they can be seen, and it is the thin layer of fat that conceals them otherwise. That should help with the time aspect as I am not working from scratch. The situps are used to make them larger and more firm as well as tone up the lower abs as they are smaller. The running/water is to help with loss of body fat percentage. Thanks Everyone

ok so here are some of my "symptoms" that my boyfriend swears is one illness but I say they could be symptoms for a number of illnesses. I'm not going to tell you what he thinks, but just let me know what you think it could be. I'm trying to prove a point to him so he'll stop freaking out.

-slight gained weight
-irregular period
-fatigue
-dizzyness
-feeling run down

those are the biggest ones. Oh, and by irregular period i mean like...either wont get for months at a time, or will get so heavy i almost pass out from blood loss.

Now one month later she is worst than ever with the cough so she was seen again by another doctor in same clinic and was given antibiotics (five pills) along with a new answer for her problem - pnenmonia. What gives?

I go for coffee, sometimes lunch, walks, presentations and once even shopping. Check my profile please before commenting, he is the only person that even cares about my well being, I'm married, he's married with 2 kids. I honestly appreciate everything he does and helps me with, and it's only in therapeutic ways, nothing else. So why are people hard on Cheren's question earlier?? I honestly do not see an issue, and please don't tell me to get a new therapist, that is NOT an option, our mental health clinic is down sizing in the new year, and trust me, NO ONE else wants to deal with me, let alone any one with BPD.. Am I blind? Is there even an "issue" here or am I just justifying it like I do with ALL my behaviors..??

So this is like my 6th day on this new job. This new job is supposedly spr easy,yet I always screw up unintentionally. I feel like my supervisor is tired of me but that she doesn't fire me becuz she's such a nice person.
So 2day I made this mistake by writing all the dates wrong on a paper. My supervisor probably realized that when I already left.

I'm rly feeling hopeless :( I don't want them to keep me @ because they feel sry 4 me. So what do I do? Should I quit after 6 days of work (knowing they can find someone better :( ) ?? What should I tell them 2morrow?

I just recently ordered the E-manual and I am very interested in trying the solution, however the Acne Connection Archives seem to have been abandoned. Why is that? Is there anyone still out there who has tried the program that I can get feedback from? Any information would be greatly appreciated!

So, I was home sick with a headache/stomach ache on thursday and friday and over the weekend it was still there. My throat was feeling a bit dry so I thought I might as well go get a strep test on saturday. It came out negative and they told me I had the flu. Now my throat hurts a little more. Is it possible I got strep throat after the test?

thanks!

My last pap smear came back abnormal, when I've had previous ones that were perfectly fine. The nurse said I didn't have HPV, but she sounded serious on the phone and kept asking 'are you ok with all this', like I'd know what to even think of it. I'm getting a colposcopy in a few weeks, and I need to know a few things by anybody who's gone through this before. I'm worried about having cervical cancer, but right now I'm just trying not to think about it til they do it. When they take a tissue sample, are they sticking a knife up in my vagina? And if I don't have HPV, why would the cells be abnormal? Also, I'm pregnant, and I'm worried if this can hurt my baby girl. Can someone give me some advice?

If this helps I've only had 1 sex partner, and I was raped by one person but I had a pap smear after that incident and it was normal. Please don't give me pity I'm a big girl and I realized a while ago that it's not my fault. I just need to know what's going to happen, I'm worried. Thanks

I've recently gotten back into playing the guitar. I'm not that great, still consider myself as a beginner. However, my finger tips hurt a ton when I play. I know I'm supposed to eventually get over the stage and develop callouses. but the problem is that I think my strings are way too tight. I have to exert a lot of pressure especially on the first fret.

I'm not sure what the problem can be, other than that I'm out of practice. Did I change my strings the worng way?

By the way, I'm using the lightest bronze strings and since these are one of the softest, I really feel like there is something wrong.
