my grandpa passed away a week ago. he was 81, and had Alzheimer's (or however you spell it). anyways, ive never lost anyone in my family before, so as you can imagine, i was crrying hysterically this whole week. i cant get over the shock and disbelief that im never going to see him again. how did you get through the tough time when you lost a loved one?
im 13, and just writing this was painful... any stories of getting through the time after they passed on would be appreicated.
thanks

This guy on utube email me asking 4 my myspace page and I said I don't give it out until I get to know the person I only have people I know on it like my friends from school. So I said no cuz ur utube page says ur 19 am 16 and I don't want to get u in trouble. So he emails me back says he is 17. I get a weird felling from this person he will not leave me alone. My mom said no myspace page or utube but I did it anyway so I can't tell her cuz I don't want to be in trouble what can I do to make him leave me alone. I'm a really nice person I hate being mean he keeps saying this send me ur myspace am 17 not 19

What does it feel like to be on Prozac? Did/do you have any side effects while on it? Does it help lift your spirits, or just give you more energy and concentration? Is it easy to get off of it? How long does it take to work? Any info would be helpful. Doc just prescribed it to me after my son was delivered a still born and I don't know if I should take it. I do feel hopeless and depressed, but I am scared the medication will change my personality. Thanks for sharing your own experiences with the drug.

My first week of college I was sexually assaulted from what I believe was a male. Nothing of this magnitude has ever happened to me. I feel that all of my dignity and sense of security has been taken away. Being a male I felt like I should have been able to protect myself from harm. Instead I was in shock and felt paralyzed while getting attacked. I really want to tell my parents but it is just incrediably difficult. I want to leave this particular college so I can move back home and commute to a different college. I feel bad that my parents paid a lot of money to send me here and now I want to leave because of this incident. Does anyone have any advice?

Thank you,
Lucas

It's giving me acne. I've finally noticed the correlation! The more I increased the dose, the worse my acne became. I've never had such bad acne in my life! I usually had a pimple here and there, but this is BAD! =[

I need stop taking this drug immediately! How would I even go about it? I will talk to my psychiatrist about this, but I need to start weening myself off of it TONIGHT! Anyone what I should do? I'm taking 200 mgs. of it. Should I cut it in a half or what?

well she cant seem to communicate when theres an argument and therefore isolates me for weeks on end and then she might ring me out of the blue crying to come back to her but even then she covers up the reasons of her really bad behaviour and doesnt seem interested in the argument and therefore nothing resolved. she seems to ***** about everyone and anything and now im realising she could have been bitching about me behind my back too. she has only 1 friend and shes not even talking to her either. right now were in an off period as her father has died recently and she told her brother really bad lies about me at the funeral sending him into a rage so much i was threatened with a pitch fork and made to drive home a long way with drink inside me as i couldnt leave the care there for fear it would be smashed up every thing seems twisted and nothing real. the only people shes with right now is her brother and sister who she tires of also its a constant battle for her to keep peopl amiright

I have to bring my own ketchup packets to Restaurants. I am afraid that the previous patrons may have spiked the ketchup bottle with something like Cyanide or LSD, waiting for the next unsuspecting patron to use it.

Does anyone else have this fear? How did you get over it?

I've been through a tough patch of my life, and lately I've noticed that like every/every other day my whole body goes on like high allert for about 30 seconds. It's kind of like that feeling you get in your stomach right before the big drop in roller coaster... This isn't the build up to have anexiety or panic attacks, right?
