I really need some help. I didnt really know what category to put this under so i just picked one.

I used to be known as the really hyper girl that was willing to do anything. But now I dont feel that way. I'm usually frowning unstead of smiling. I feel like I'm about to cry all the time! I dont know whats wrong with me at all! Does anyone have any ideas on whats wrong with me or what i can do to be happy again?

You may be depressed. go to the doctors about it they will put you on anti- depressents. hope your ok again soon

i have braces and theres a sore spot on my gums but it hurts...my dentist says its bcuz of my braces and to keep brushing it hard so i can get it clean..but it hurts! what can i do to get the redness and swelling down?

-Cierra

Well my sister has braces too and her gums were very sore after she had hers fitted. its becuase your not used to it and the metal on your teeth. The dentist should have given you some wax to put over the metal when it hurts. Ask him for some and see if there is any cream you can use. it will stop hurting in a few days

omg i flipping out cuz i have these zits i want to get rid of. can someone plase put the toothpaste steps easly understandable ! nd i also popped one ... how can i make it heel faster?

Toothpaste isnt the oly way to get rid of them. blemish sticks are good and they usually go the next day after you applied it. Drink more water to keep Zits away. before you go to bed put toothpaste over your Zit and the next morning wipe it off, it should work but sometimes doesn't

Thanks!

go to the doctor about it ask him for a perscription and keep warm!!

Someone told me that washing your hair every day can damage it. Then someone else told me that it wasn't true unless you blow dry it everyday (which I don't so)
So which person is right?
I've been washing my hair everyday for ages because there's nothing better to do, haha. I don't want to damage my hair from it though!

Start to wash your hair every other day. like if you wash it on Monday then wash it again on wednesday and then friday. becuase washing your hair everyday can damage it becuase you are not letting the natural oils get into your hair by doing that you are damaging your hair

I got highlights about 3-4 months ago. My mom said i can only get them done by the hairdressers every 6 months because its expensive. But it looks really bad now. Is there any product I can buy thats like a do-it-yourself highlighting kit?

there are quite alot of highlighting kits now. they arent that expensive really. buy one and try it if it works good carry on getting it and dont get it done at the hairdressers if its too expensive

i have a bunch of friends and all. we hang out together a lot, but there is one problem. whenever i'm in a group situation, i always am the one left out - i guess you could call me the odd man out. i think my friends take me for granted, knowing that i'll always be there for them whenever they need help or whatnot, and that's the only time i feel like they care about me, when they have a problem they need help with. is there any way i could get my friends to realize that they're treating me like crap without actually saying it to them or acting really rude or whiny? thanks so much. i rate :D

I know how you feel but me and my friends sorted it all out, we talked about it and it turned out that we all felt left out in some way. try to make them include you more and dont drag behind them and tell them if your stil unhappy if they continue to leave you out then find some new friends to hang around with that way they know that you wont allow them to use them anymore.#

hi there people really bother me in school, i dont have much friends and they all tease me. boys call me a mutt and a dog and disguting pig, im not fat though and im not reallly ugly. girls bark and moo at me and push me and im sick of it, i have 2 bestfriends but they dont stick up for me. if these people knew what i been through like, my dad died when i was 6 and my bothers friggen a crack head, ligit and my sisters a big whore who doesnt talk to the whole fam.. i dont have anyone and im sick of it, what should i do?

Im sorry about everything you are going through. Well these pupils at your school are just evil really they have nothing better to do with their life than to make yours worse. gnore them and stand up to them! if you do that they wont do it again trust me, there was this guy who picked on me and one day i hit him and he didnt say anything to me again and he was really nice to me after that! im not sugesting that you go around hitting everyone that is mean to you though. lol and as for your friends then they arent very good friends if they dont stick up for you tell them how you feel. Try and talk to a school counciler. hope i have helped you

the hair on my legs grows back so fast. ill shave with a brand new razor then the next day hair is back. how do i keep hair away for a long time.
ill rate!!

Try waxing next time. It takes longer for the hair to grow back if you have your legs waxed, if you dont like the thought of waxing them shave and try some hair minimising lotion, you can get it from almost any store.

Well for the past year and a half or so, we've been working on re-decorating my bedroom. Right now I have one of my bedroom walls a hot pink colour and the rest are white. I wanted to accent my room with lime green, so that there wasn't so much pink. I'm painting my closet doors in that sublime green colour with hot pink stripes down the middle of each of them, but I wanted to add more green into my bedroom. My idea was to put some sort of design in the corners of my walls like right at the top where the corner of the two walls meet the ceiling. My only delema is, I'm stumped as to what design I should use in those corners. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the design should be in the corner? I'm open to any ideas! Thanks!

how about getting some stencils from a DIY store or something. how about a flower design or some stars.

My hair is extremely long and straight, and I recently took four inches off of it so the tips reach around the middle of my back. I'm a dancer, so I can't go too short, but I want to make it seem shorter by making it wavy. I heard curling irons can be damaging to hair. Is there another way to get my hair into waves?

Plaiting it can make it wavy or if you leae your hair damp and put it in a messy bun for when you go to bed in the morning it will be wavy. hope i have helped

Ok I think I have one, but how do you know and get rid of it...and fast?

thanks

Some people say that putting perfume on it works or aftershave, it may sting but it stops it from getting bigger and should make it go down.
