Mondays are really hard for me, every week is the same thing. I don't have anything to wake up to on Sundays, I try to wake up early, but I just don't have anything to do, so I sleep a while longer. Because I get out of bed late, I can't sleep early, I can be in bed, shut down the lights, turn off the TV, but I'll just be in be tossing and turning, and I can't ever sleep until 3:00 AM, and then I have to be at work at 7:30 AM. Mondays is always having a headache, not being rested, not working well. I just don't know how to fix this.

Could I take a sleep pill just on Sundays?

alright heres the deal. I'm not bragging, but let me start off by saying, I am not simply just good looking, I'm extremely handsome. I'm 18 and about to head off to college in a month. About a year and half ago I was hit with a case of acne that has really ****** me over. The acne is completely gone now, but initially this light red discoloration that was only around my chin and mouth area ( like in the shape of a goatee), was left there. It's getting better with time, but I am one of the most pale people you will ever see, so any blemish is noticeable. When my skin is clear, and white it looks perfect. I'm so sick and tired of wasting the last year or so being shy and lacking confidence. I am bitter because I know that I am extremely good looking, even with this problem, but I want to reach my full potential. I wanna have fun in college and not worry about blemishes and ****. Apparently this thing I have has a name (hyperpigmentation). I've seen my doc, but any other advice???????????

about 2 weeks ago, I kind of got my finger stuck in the car door, and it wasn't there long since the door was unlocked. I didn't tell my parents because they would freak out and stuff. and dont't tell me to tell them, just cuz im 12 doesn't mean they have to know this! anyways, nothing's broken at all, and everything seems normal. It's not even bruised. But It's really tender around the area where the door closed on, and it seems to be clearing up and all but I'm just making sure that this is all normal. I think It should be perfect by now.

PS
I don't think that this would matter but, it closed right on one of the joints. and it doesn't hurt when I move it. just when something touches the "affected" area or jabbs into it.

My right foot hurts a lot and I can't figure out why. I can't get into the doctors until the end of the week so I am trying to figure out what's wrong, maybe there's something I can do until then.

Patient assessment in a prehospital setting. Was told once that itwas safer to start in a counterclockwise position starting from RUQ ending at LUQ. This is of course for an unconscious unknown patient.

about 2 years ago i hit my head and was in the hospital with a concusion. since that time my memory is TERRIBLE: my husband will tell me something... like he is going to the neighbors for a little bit (for example). and after a little while i am angry because i can't find him and have no idea where he is. when i find him, (at the neighbors for example) he says he told me, and he will repeat part of the conversation and i have a flashback that he DID tell me... this happens all of the time, work, kids, husband, telephone calls... and just recently i was driving and all of the sudden it was if i had awaken and didn't know where i was or where i was going (guessing i blacked out for maybe a minute or more... not certain). i have been under a lot of stress for years... so at first i was blaming my memory on stress, but my husband pointed out today how bad my memory has been since my skating accident. has anyone had something similar, symptom wise? diagnosis?

This thing is rubbing my leg and it is very irritating. Short of taking it off, how can you minimize the rubbing. I thought about knee highs but the boot is hot enough as it is!! HELP!
