I am a 20 yr old college student who is considering ending his life because i feel like there is no point in living. When people have no friends, they usually can fall back to their family. But for me, i literally have no family or friends. Almost 95% of all my family is in Russia, the only people i have here is my mom, and sister. I never really had a father, he was never there to support us. My sister lives w/ her boyfriend, so i never talk to her or see her. My mom works so much that i really never get to see her. I dont have alot of friends, maybe 1 or 2, but we never do anything. My whole life i have never done anything. In highschool, never went to parties, prom, no sports (even though i love sports), absolutely nothing in which students do. Now in college, i still am not doing anything. The only thing that i do have is that i have maintained a 4.0 GPA throughout junior year. But to me i would give up anything to have friends, family, and to be happy again.

I've been experiencing cramping and spotting for about five days now.. the blood is bright red like the usual bleeding I am accustomed to during my period, but there is no flow.. I've experienced breakthrough bleeding before, but I'm a little nervous because I had sex with my boyfriend around the time of ovulation.. I'm due to get my period in three days.
I have not missed a pill -- I've only been late by about an hour at most maybe once or twice.
I've been on the pill for a year and a half.. is this normal?

I can't stand crying. It makes me feel weak and sensitive. Have scientists or surgeons or anyone who have discovered how to stop people from crying forever? If not, are they getting close to finding a way??

My boyfriend has an uncircumsized penis. Unfortunately, I believe that he is not cleaning it properly becuase it stinks...bad. I am in the process of working up the nerve to tell him about it. We still have sex regularly and I wondering if his lack of hygien and his possible infection could cause for me to get an infection. ??

I've been coughing since last week. I cough up thick green phlegm all day long.

My lungs feel inflamed and my throat is always scratchy.

Please don't suggest I go to a doctor or clinic, because I can't afford to do either.

I'm looking for a natural way to get better.

There must be millions of people with problems much worse than mine, yet I have consistently been thinking about killing myself for quite some time. I'm not a starving child or abused or anything like that fortunately. I think the reasons I want to kill myself are simply because I have virtually no social skills (I'm 20 years old and as hard as I try I cannot make any friends). I can't even do sports anymore because I have problems with my kidneys. I also have social anxiety too, so I always feel extremely inadequate and scared to be in public. I'm too busy in college for a job, so I can't pay for a psychologist or anything (none on campus either). Joined a couple clubs on campus too, but as hard as I tried, could not make friends with anyone. Also I have extremely strict parents and if I had the money and wasn't paying for college, I would move as far away from them as I could. I really don't feel like I have a purpose and I'm sick of being angry all the time. What should I do?Thanks

I asked my Dr about having my tubes tied. I am 31 yrs old, divorced, with one child who is 5. I do not want anymore kids. He told me I might change my mind, so "no, I wouldn't approve it, nor would anyone else." I'm tired of the Depo shot. Even with my history of severe depression (which is another reason I can't handle another child), he refuses to do it. I don't think 31 is very young at all to know I am done with children. I have zero interest in another, or in ever getting married again. I love the child I have, but he is all I can handle. Has anyone else had so much trouble trying to get sterilizied at this age?

I am in my younger 30's and still have never had a orgasm with any of my partners. I mean EVER! The only way I can achieve a orgasm is hanging on a door with my leg crossed over the other and the pressure allows me to have one immediately. I know it sounds crazy but I accidentally stumbled upon this when I was very young. Have I ruined myself? I cannot stand to be touched outside. Penetration is nice but still nothing. Will I ever have one??? Any ideas? I find myself having sex less and less cause it just does nothing for me. I get aroused but can't acheive my goal. Some say I'm trying to hard but then why can't I give myself one? The feeling outside I guess is sensitivity to the point it feels very annoying. This is a real question and need help from some women with the same situation.

I heard recently that yams can boost fertility in women . But I cannot find yams in my area.
Would sweet potatoes do the same thing?

Throughout the day I notice that I am clenching my teeth together. I don't really realize that I am doing it for a few minutes and then my jaw starts to hurt. Does anybody have an input on why I'm doing this? Does this happen to anyone else?

I know this is a pretty common thing to happen at night but it only happens to me during the day...

Ok.. so my soon to be mother in law said she would pay for me to go to the doctor and for any prescriptions they would give me. If any.


Im 21 years old.. and would probably be considered morbidly obese.

Now i have never been to the doctor for diet plan reasons. But my mother in law said that i should just go there and ask the doctor for a plan of some sort.

My questions for you guys.. is should i got to a weight clinic or whatever *don't even know if we have one of those*, or can i just go to my regular doctor, which is what my mother in law said to do.

And what type of DIET do doctors put you on, and what type of meds would they give me ... if any?

Any input would be great, thanks

I'm always hearing people say, "Omg Marijuana is bad for you". But they never really seem to back it up. So my question is, How is marijuana bad for you? And can you back it up with proof?

Lately, (about two months) I've been suffering from the following symptoms. I don't know what it is. I don't think it's PMS because it's nonstop and PMS usually ends and then starts again.

Symptoms include:
-very easily agitated
-extreme tiredness
-headaches + migraines
-dizziness + feeling of vertigo
-inability to focus
-impatience
-lack of care/interest

it seems that all I want it to be left alone and sleep. Any minute of any day, whether I just woke up, or just came home from school, all I want is to go to sleep. And I think I get adequate amounts of sleep. During the week, I sleep for 7 hours/night (age 16) and during the weekends, up to 12 hours.

Any suggestions on what it could be? What can I do to make it go away?
