She & her husband have a 11 mth old baby. While the rest of the family were in the living room, playing with my grandson, my son-in-law went into the bathroom. He was in there for awhile. When he came out my daughter went in. She immediately asked him why it smelled like carbon. Then she found a canister of butane hidden under a towel. Appparently he was huffing it. Does anyone know what kind of damage he is doing to himself?

I have ADHD and it is such a hassle for me to have to go to my doctor all the time for refills on my Concerta, because her office inevitably drags their feet and always takes a week or so to refill it. Anyways, though, I was wondering if there is any good medication that you don't need a prescription for that is effective for ADHD? I need something to supplement the times when I am out of Concerta and I don't have my refill yet. Let me know, thanks!

i really have no hope left...so maybe if you can tell me what gives/gave you hope to continue on and that you can fix your problem? (and i don't care how stupid you might think it is--its probably not stupid at all)

thank you

I don't normally drink, and being christmas I decided to have a half a bottle of beer and less than half of a glass of that irish cream stuff. Maybe about an hour or two later, I wasn't feeling well and started to vomit. Since last night I've vomited approx. 6 or 7 times starting with food and now a yellowish coloured substance (i'm thinking bile)

Anyway, I was wondering what it might be and what I could do, tea/water seems to be making it worse. And I'm a medium set person so that amount of alcohol probably wouldnt have an affect on me other than the fact that I don't usually drink.

Now, I'm somewhat educated. I know that the act of oral sex can't get you pregnant, I know that much. But, if semen were to get onto my hands or something and eventually end up... down there, do I need to worry? Basically I'm not sure how long it takes for semen to die when they're outside of the body.

I intend to clean myself off with a towel afterward as soon as possible and take every precaution I can, but is there still some way I could get pregnant? My gut says no, there isn't, but I want to be sure before I do anything.

Just to clarify: I'm seventeen. I'm not an uneducated elementary school student. My knowlege is leading me to believe that it is not possible to get pregnant tis way. However, I am also a virgin, in both intercourse and oral sex. Therefore, I have no experience. I would like to get the opinion of someone who does. So please, don't scold me for anything.

This all happened on Christmas. He denied and left. Then came back and admitted the truth. He swore it was the first time and that he didn't actually follow through by peeping. But that he was going to. He also said that he would never sexually harm her. I do believe that he wouldn't molest her. The fact that he would make an attempt to look in on her disgusts me. I told him to never come back until he gets help. He needs help. So he called a counseling place and is going to get help. He has porn addiction and so I think this is all related to that. My daughter isn't scared of him or even mad. But my other daughter thinks he's a creep. I am very angry. I wanted to beat the tar out of him. Any advice in where to go from here? I don't think the police can do anything since he didn't molest her. What makes this really hard is that I work with him. Do I date him to help him during this counseling? Do I avoid all contact? I want him to get help more than anything.

Kinda like the old question,

Would you rather have _____ or your life? The obviously question is "your life", but many women choose other treatments in this case.

Obviously women don't want to lose their boob, but is the chance of dying worth the risk?

I have heard that this is dangerous especially for your bones. I have not had my period for the last 6 months.

The problems associated with not having a period...can this be resolved if I take the pill and I menstruate? This is what the doctor recomended but I wanted to know the dangers of not having a period and whether the problems will be resolved by the pill which the doctor has already prescribed for me.
