My brother just turned 18 and has had a drug problem for a little over 2 years now. I thought he was clean but when i went to borrow a dvd from his room i found this little surprise hiding in his closet. I have no idea whatsoever of what it is, but maybe one of you guys happen to know. Here are some pictures:

The pictures arent really that great but hopefully one of you can identify what it could be. I'm almost positive that it is some sort of drug since i found it right next to one of his old bongs and some rolling papers. The "substance" inside of the red baggy is crystal-like and has a reddish-brown tint to it. It isn't white like the last picture shows (it's just the flash). It almost looks like sand but is a deeper color. Any help will be appreciated so much. Thanks.

Suppose a person smokes a lot of marijuana over a period of years... For example this person is almost a daily smoker for 3-4 years. Then after the 4 years this person stops all smoking and quits for good. Ten years later will they have any side effects or are there any issues they would still have from smoking so much.

I have been in the worst time of my life the past month and a half or so. I am in a long distance relationship...and have been for 2 years now. It has just been getting tough reciently. I cheated on her but we are trying very hard to stay together. One of my friends reciently committed suicide. All of the rest of my friends are bickering amungst eachother. I am so stressed out with homework and my job...working until 10 PM most nights after school. I seem to always want to just curl up somewhere and cry. I tried to talk to my mom about it...but all she told me was to "buck it up" and deal with it. What should I do?

We hear so much about all the murders and child predators and especially the family murder/suicide rates in our country, but, no one seems to address that many crimes and bad acts by our citizens could be prevented if they had a sound community mental health system to turn to.

It's sad that we have not made the same progress in mental health and how we address our emotions and mental states as we have in Cardiology, Onocology, and other Medical Fields. People are still treated like misfits if they have problems, and it's treated in a "hush-hush" manner and the stigma that goes with it is the worse discrimination that takes place.

It's sad that Crisis counselors are made available for those affected by the loss of control of others, but, had such help been available to the perpetartors of these acts in the first place, they might have been prevented. We are too used to reacting and grieving instead of preventing. We need to provide help to those that want and need it.

Negative thoughts, like when someone makes you mad and you have images of harming them, or your just sitting around and you start to get negative, what do you do to ease those thoughts? What should someone do to channel that energy away?

Please do not assume mental illness is involved or something like that, because everyone has these thoughts.

I would appreciate serious answers.

I hate my job. I work at a deli.... I hate going to school. It is kind of hard this semester. I hate my body because I am fat. I hate my nose it is kind of big. I am happy most of the time. I don't really have many friends because I am shy. A lot of people ask me to hang out, but I am not that much of a social person. I do go out ocasionally, but I rather stay home and study or spend time with my family. I have a boyfriend, but often feel like he might cheat on me because I have such low self esteem sometimes.

Do you think that laziness is something physiological within the body, or from genetics ? Or is it an acquired habit learned from parents, relatives and friends?

I know I 'shouldn't do this' but this isn't the point so no lectures please. But like umm has anybody else thought of a flaw or something missing in their life and thought that they were just innately inferior and like dwelled so much on the emptiness and nothigness?

Do you think that's where most illnesses come from? Focusing so much on what we don't have instead of what we do have. I have so much to be thankful for each day, that are gifts- but why do sometimes we suddenly think of those gaping black holes?

I am 14 and have Panic Disorder. The thing is I always get this:
On the side of my rib cage where my heart is it hurts like 20 times a day for 1-2 seconds sometimes 3 seconds. This gets me very anxious thus causing more fears. I am growing my parents say it can be because your rib cage is getting larger im 5'6" 105 pounds. Skinny and tall basically. Could a professional or anyone who has experienced this for like as long as me which is 2 months respond .

Thank You,
I appreciate it
