If you are feeling both hungry and sleepy at the same time, which would you go for first, dig in the ref or slip under your blanket (assuming it's cold LOL)?

Well, to start off, I'm 18 yr. old male, and have had generalized anxiety with the occasional panic attack for the past year. One of my main symptoms I have is my breathing gets "off" and I don't breathe "naturally". It's like I'm constantly thinking about it and it causes me to breath too much, not at the right speed, etc. I tend to mouth breathe more often than I should also.


Well, when I sit up on my bed to read, use my laptop, etc, I always feel like I have to burp. Then I have HUGE burps that come deep down from my stomach.

Could I be taking in too much air and not notice it because my breathing has been "different" for close to a year? Which explains why I feel like I have to burp so much?

When I have those HUGE stomach burps, it relieves ALOT of pressure and just makes me feel really loose... it's like, ahh, and it just opens me up.

Does this sound logical? Or is it maybe something else?

It keeps me company. I rarely fall asleep in the dark with no background noise. I always leave a bathroom light on and I always have the TV going.
I am single and my 2 kids are raised, but that really doesnt have anything to do with it. I kept the TV on in my bedroom while my kids were still both at home. I am not really sure why I do it, but cant seem to fall asleep without the TV going. Is it going to cause cancer or something? Is there some reason I cannot fall asleep without the TV on?

I had my first alcoholic beverage when I was 22 ....... now 6 months later I find wanting it a lot and I dont like it unless I get affected by it. Why am I drawn to it so much and how do I get past the cravings of it ( I mean I can't have it all the time even though I want it ) because I don't get the feeling from anything else.

i was in a car wreck a few weeks ago. i went to the hospital and got xrays and a cat scan, they said i was fine so i went home. a week later i woke up in the morning throwing up blood, went to a different hospital and they said i had a ulser. i lost a lot of blood and had surgury. i was in icu and woke up with a 12 inch cut down my chest. they said that i was losing blood pressure and had to do open heart surgery. see when i had the car wreck i damaged my heart and was leaking blood around my heart. causing it to slow down and would eventually stopped it. if i didnt have the ulser i would have just went to bed that night and not woke up. i just think that i almost died because they didnt look hard enough when i went the first time to the hospital, oh they sure did charge my insurance 13,000, but sent me home to die. im only 26 and have a wife and kid. what do you all think i should do?

I have been trying to find out some information on children born with a single umbilicial artery and I cant find anything about children that are not infants. My daugher is 6 yrs old and having health problems and she had only one artery in her umbilical cord when she was born. So what I am wondering is, even if there are no major problems determined while she was an infant could problems show up later? She has been complaining of her lower back hurting and been running fever for long time, but shows no other symptoms (like the flu or cold or anything). I have taken her to the doctor and they are culturing her urine. Could she have a problem with her kidneys from having the single artery? Please help me if you can...I am very worried, so if anyone knows anything about it or has experience with their own child please let me know.

Do any of you guys have dry skin on your feet? Mine is really bad around my heals and starting to crack a little. And on the bottom of my feet my skin is starting to peal a little. Do any of you know what this could be caused from besides just dry skin? What can I do to get normal skin on my feet again?

I've gotten into a bad habit of pulling out my eyelashes. Now, I don't have very many, and they've become thinner. How can I stop pulling them out so that they can grow nice and long?

I've never been one to drink lots of fluids. Even when I eat, I barely touch my drink. Whenever I try to increase my water intake, I pee like 40000 times a day. It seems like none of that water even gets in my system. Is it really benefiting me to drink more water if I just pee it all out?

I have heard that he should stay home for 3 days but I have also heard that it takes at least 24 hours for the antibiotics to work. He has been fever free since last night.

I would hate for him to go to school and have other kiddos get it.
