I know there are specific drugs that doctors use to do this. What are they and are there non-prescription substances that are similarly safe and effective at achieving a non-responsive deep-sleep state?

Or would losing your virginity to another virgin or person with only one past partner cross your mind? How much did you value your virginity? And why is it so hard to meet a woman...either they don't want a respectable man (too busy screwing losers) or they are married or taken...? I guess money is what brings the girls to the yard...cause it certainly isn't being yourself nowadays?

I do not mean just drink coffee. I want to know like perhaps pills or others ways that I can stay awake for like maybe three days and more with only two or three hours of sleep.

My doctor told me all of my symptoms are classic of low thyroid. But my blood tests all came back normal. I have looked into Wilson's Syndrome and have tested my temp. It is low all the time. I don't know how to find a good doc to help me though? There are no endocrinologists in my town. My family doc dismissed me once the tests were shown as normal. Any advice?

I first noticed a red, blotchy, but not itchy rash on my fingers and hands about a day ago, and since then it's quickly spread all over my body onto my legs (mostly tops of my thighs), arms (especially the backs of my arms), chest a little bit, stomach (mostly the sides), and my feet. I don't know what it's from or what to do about it! Ever happened to you before? What can I do, and what is it?

I gave my boyfriend oral sex (both our first time) and now I'm beginning to get worried about HIV. He had never had any sexual activity before, but could his parents have it and not know? ...Am I worrying over nothing? He comes from a good family, and very open- if they knew they'd tell him. We had a not-so-friendly breakup, so I cant talk to him about it. Any thoughts would help.

And what is the HIV test like btw?

I've heard of a few people who've been in the military who can fall asleep in seconds. "I'ts a trick I learned in the Army." But I can't find any information on it. Anyone heard of this, or know the technique? I'd be nice to know, given that it takes me at least half an hour to fall asleep, and I can't take naps during the day. Other techniques don't work. Please help.

I am 42 yrs old. My dad helped me weather all of the storms. I confided in him and he was a very good listener. He gave me funny advice and knew me better than anyone else in the world. He knew me from the inside out. He is responsible for making me the excellent person I have turned out to be. I think I will probably die alone because I am divorced x 2 and my kids are gone. I put up with an abusive husband and a mooch. Suddenly in my 40's I am starting to feel worn out. What can I do to get past this overwhelming loss and grief? Should I drink, or perhaps get another job. My current significant other is still croning after his ex wife. He is so not supportive of me. My own siblings are too busy with their own lives to have family gatherings. They have their own kids and lives. I have an empty house and my dog.
I started going to church, but didnt like the dull preacher. Maybe I should start a hobby. Any suggestions?

I've been taught before that lice prefer clean hair to dirty because they can move better through clean hair. But my parents are under the impression that dirty hair attracts lice. What is true?

ADD, ADHD kid is agressive at times and not calm at all, there is not enough money to put him on any sports. The school doesn't help much or at all and doctors don't either, it is not good to give them pills he's not wanted as a vegetable just a normal kid who feels comfortable and is safe and healthy. Kids in school don't like to be around him much he is friendly but since he doesn't do so good in school academically his peers dislike him what to do??? He needs to have a better self-esteem.

Ok, I had this dream..I was at a park with my son. I was sitting at the picnic table watching him play with the other kids. His babysitter was there and decided to leave with her son. My son then took off running after them. I sat there frozen and I couldn't speak. My mouth was moving,but nothing was coming out. All of a sudden this gay looking blue cargo van was coming. He honked but my son wouldn't move off the street. Next thing I know everything magnified and went into slow mo. The guy in the van ran over my son. I just sat there and saw the whole thing. He is down on the ground and the driver just kept driving. I am able to move now, so I run up to him. Turn him over and look into his eyes. I didn't see anything there. He is so bloody and dismembered. I start to cry. So I put my ear down next to his mouth to try to hear if he is still breathing. No he isn't.

Then I woke up freaking out. Can you tell me where to look up what this means. Or if you have any ideal

For several years now, I have had migraines, but during this past week they have been much worse and continuous. I had been taking prescribed migratine capsules, but as they weren't helping at all, I stopped taking them. Today, I had really bad menstral cramps (which is a normal occurence for me), so I took ibuprofen to help. However, after about an hour the cramps were still as painful as ever. About two hours after the cramping had started, I broke out into a cold sweat and started feeling really chilly (in addition to the worsening pain fo the cramps). Shortly thereafter, I started losing my ability to see and function (everything turned bright white and I wasn't able to stand or walk properly). All I could see during the next hour or so were brief glimpses or the same bright whiteness with outlines of certain objects around me. Is this simply because of the cramps or is it more to with my migraine? And no, my migraines are not the result of stress.

Thanks!
