I smoked about 8-12 cigarettes per day for 18 years, but three months ago I decided enough was enough and I quit cold turkey. Since the day I quit I've had no serious cravings and no withdrawal symptoms. I'm also at the point where I find smoking to be disgusting. Why was quitting so easy when other people have such a horrible battle trying to quit? Am I just lucky??

I have been a regular blood donor for 18 years but I have never given platelets. Has anyone here ever done so? If so, would you do it again? Is there any reason not to?

I took a urine drug test this Wednesday for pre-employment. I smoked a few hits (3 or 4) of marijuana on October 29th at like 7 in the morning. I'm 5'4, 120 pounds with a fast metabolism, so I figured that 16 days should be enough to pass the drug test. I didn't take any detox drinks, cranberry pills, etc. I usually drink 8 the suggested 8 cups of water a day, it's just a habit and I didn't do it primarily to dilute the test or whatever. After I peed into the cup, I noticed that my pee was pretty clear..can they really hold that against you? I mean, drinking water is normal...how much water would you have to drink for them to consider your sample not valid? And how long does it usually take to get results back? My (hopefully) employer said that they would call when they get the results back about the job, and I'm wondering how long that should take?

PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ANSWERS that say "drugs are stupid", etc. I'm looking for serious answers

Not only is it annoying, but I tend to talk louder due to the fact that I can hardly hear out of one ear... I've tried ear drops and such but nothing is working so far. Thanks in advance for your help.

Imagine that an amobea is placed in a solution of salty water. The concentration of salt in in the solution is greater than the salt concentration of the amobea's watery cytoplasm. What will happen,and why? Be sure to use the proper science terms to communicate your understanding.

The only way I can figure it, is that cough suppressant "suppresses" coughs, but those that do break through are more productive. Is that right? I guess I'm trying to understand why/when would someone take both of these. Children's Mucinex is formulated with both ingredients. Help? Thanks

I stopped smoking for nine months using this product; however, I started back when i couldn't find it. It has no nicotine in it and seemed to be a healthy alternative to cigarettes.

What are some indications of long term marijuana use in a person? How does the person act? What does it physically do to your body, such as hair growth patterns, moodiness, loss of sexual stamina, etcetra. Do these symptoms only occur while one is using weed, or does it go away after they stop? I dont know a lot about the effects of weed. Will someone help me? Does it cause a person to be a Jeckyl and Hyde? Nice one day and angry the other? No desire to do anything but sleep and drink and do the same mechanical things?

I am a really slender person by nature, and I haven't gained any weight throughtout my body - but I feel like I may have gained some weight around my jaw and under my throat. It seems extremely strange to me. However, it would make sense that I am gaining some weight since I came to University and my eating habits aren't the best they've been. But in my FACE?

Hey everyone I am a resident assiant in my dorm, and during final exam week i wanted to run a program where we made stress balls, ate comfort foods and discussed good stress and study tips.
Is there anyone who can tell me the best way to make a stress ball? I have heard of sand, and even though i live on Long Island (the sandyiest place ever), there is no one selling it at a decent price cause its out of season. I have heard of flour or rice. I dont want to purchase everything and find it not work.
THanks alot :)
