I don't have insurance, but I need to do something about my depression because it's getting out of control, and I'm afraid of what happens when I eventually give up.

I've heard that applying SB on birth marks, etc. will cause the marks to shrink and disappear over time. Is this true?

I have a few bigger ones on my back and some on my stomach and I want to clean them up without surgery. I had one removed on my back that was getting bigger and it was benign.

Thanks!!

my girlfriend just went and got the birth control shot and now she wants to throw away the condoms, im not completely with this idea but the book that she got from the doctor says that only 1 out of 100 women get pregnant on the shot, am i safe to not use a condom every once in awile?

I have 4 warts on one hand and a very very tiny one on the other. I have tried everything. I even heard on the news that duct tape works. It got rid of one however but the others didn't go away. I've even tried acne medication. It made 2 go away but they came back. I've tried that Compound W patches AND freeze off remover...the freeze off remover severly burned my skin. AND THAT COMPOUND W IS CRAP. It doesn't work.

Home remedies do work however...and I wanted to know some more home remedies. If you have any good ones let me know.

Just for the record acne medication has salicylic acid in it and that is a wart medication as well. So if you have warts give that a try.

ok, you make a pill that is used for medicinal purposes but the **** has like 100,000 side effects on top of being heavily abused. When abused complications or even can occur quickly. Marijuana, non man made HERB has several medicinal purposes. Keyword is HERB. Everybody knows herbs heal. It has even been proven to help combat cancer cells!! A being can comsume a pount of cannabis and the worst the will hapen is sleep(no death like the man made drugs)!! Whats the arguement? Cocaine and all that other mess, yea that should be considered illegal and a drug because its man made and kills!!!

the periodontists are relentless-they want me to make a career out of going to them-now they say gum surgery. What a nightmare that is and I don't believe it will solve anything as the bacteria returns. I am convinced there is a kinder, less intrusive, healthier way of dealing with this-anyone have experience with alternative methods??????

I'm always catching colds...and just wondering if there are other natural herbs that can be taken with Echenacea to boost the immune system. I understand that zinc also helps a great deal.

I'm told by some to just take it for a few weeks because your immune system builds a tolerance for it and so it loses its effectiveness. Any recommendations? And also, what are your own personal thoughts and comments on how well this natural herb performs on your health? I hoping to take this product in the attempt that it boosts my immune system....since I'm always catching colds.

thanks everyone!
