i used to be a social butterfly who knows almost anyone in school, and could hit off well with people in less than 10 minutes. i felt so confident and positive just being in my own skin. along the way came stress and fatigue life and i started to feel happy less often, started to worry and get tensed up on minor issues, started to mind things around me, felt unnatural (detached from my surrounding) just walking in my school or along the street as i felt that peole judge me or find me weird, just forgotten how to socialise with classmates, didn't even dare to talk to them as i felt i would be unheard. why did my world change from a partying carefree place to a place that makes me so timid, shy and anti-social?

is there any problem? can someone pls explain my phenomena?

About a year a half ago, I found a breast lump and now I have several. They don't grow very quickly though. I also have pain in my back and shoulder blades, pelvis and ribs sometimes. But then I'll go for weeks with no pain at all. My right side where my liver is hurts now and I feel like I'm getting fatter around the middle even though I don't think I've been eating more or anything.

I have 2 kids - great kids whom I love with everything I have - ages 13 and 15 and I want to live see them grow up and have children of their own, I really do. But for some reason, that doesn't seem to be enough to make me overcome my fear of hearing a doctor say I have cancer and having to be examined. I know it's stupid, but I am very modest and I hate to be touched and I'm terrified of anyone seeing me naked. I know, you're wondering how the hell I had 2 kids. Well I haven't always been like this. But anyway, what is wrong with me? Why aren't my kids enough to make me want to get treatment?

If you watch avril lavigne's video for "hot" her contacts are amazing in it! Does anyone know of which store would hold around 30-$40 contatcs like this that last long and don't damage your eyes, and hydrate your eyes well, as if you're not wearing them? Here's the vid:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVnl9QCfNyE here's a pic of my eyes taken a couple months ago:http://www.flickr.com/photos/22371827@N06/?saved=1 so, anyone know of a good store where I can buy cheap, light light light blue contacts in a good well-known brand? Thanks, and happy new years! (and please don't tell me I'm a kid and don't need them, I dunno if I
'll even get them, but in the future, if I can, I will have good info on what i should buy.)

So, i've been on accutane for almost 4 months now. My time on it has been the worst 4 months of my life, period. In the first two weeks I had severe back pain then that faded away after a few weeks. When I went in at 3 months I had beyond severe joint pain, and I still have now after cutting dosage in half, I have to take ibprofen 3 times a day, I cannot even slowly jog and it hurts when i walk sometimes. Its also causing me to miss a PE class next semester, which im slightly worrried about. Anyways, after 3 weeks on accutane (1st 2 weeks half dosage), my face was smooth and all the acne from what I can tell went away and I have have dark red purple scars all over my face, my face has not changed from this in over 3 months. Is accutane going to clear up these scars because it is yet to help, and is the fact that im doing half dosage and probably will be doing 1/4 dosage soon going to screw up results, because all i'm thinking is..**** accutane this is screwing up my life.

Okay maybe its not THAT bad but it is really painful. Anyway, today I went ice skating and I made a very STUPID mistake and wore low socks... smart right :/ Well anyway, me and my friend skated for a good 2 or 3 hours and the whole time the skate was rubbing up against my ankle causing friction and horrible chafing :S I took off my skate and I have these horrible red open sores on my leg. Just the air hitting them makes them hurt soooo bad! I feel like tearing off my legs. You have no idea how much it hurts. Taking a shower is gonna be HELL!!!! Anyway, do you have any suggestions?? Thanx in advance.

This may sound weird, but at the top of my vagina it hurts when something touches it. It's kinda itchy too. It's only at the top, no where else. What should I do? I have never had any sexual contact. I don't smoke, drink, or do drugs. What has caused this and how to I get rid of it?

WOW! i ask to many questions... now to the question.

I've been coughing a lot, so my throat is raw and sore. When i cough gooey stuff/phlegm comes up and it also taste like blood (proley cuz my throat is raw). Also my chest hurts really bad! It feels like a raw throat kinda... its hard to describe. It really hurts when i cough, and it hurts when i breath.
When i swallow like just like swallowing spit or whatever i feel crap in my throat. Also it feels like my chest is being pressed on.

you know whats really annoying? constantly worrying about my weight. america is obsessed with weight loss and WHY? I am too and I dont get it. I am just so AAAAAGH!!! ok this isnt really a question but whatever. I am so sick of worrying whether eating a cookie will make me gain 5 pounds. I wish I could just eat and stay the same weight or maybe I am and Im just not noticing. and people say eat healthy. salads and stuff? but whenever I eat healthy stuff like an hour later I crave something totally unhealthy! another thing that bothers me is that guys around here go for the anorexically skinny chicks. I mean Im not fat or chubby, but Im not super skinny. and yea. what is with the obsession with weight anyway? I know this isnt a blog so opinions anyone?

I decided not to wear my glasses anymore, but i'm afraid that if i stop then my vision would get worse. If i don't squint, would my eyes still get worse for not wearing glasses?
