I've been having nosebleeds since I was little, but just recently in the past few weeks i've started to get them daily. Sometimes I'll get them in the shower, sometimes I'll get them when I'm just walking around my house. I'll put pressure on my nose, lean foward, put an ice pack on the bridge of my nose, but it takes about 20 minutes for them to stop. And I always have to blow my nose during it because I feel the mucus dripping down my throat. When I blow my nose, it'll be a big clump of bloody mucus. Sometimes it gets into my mouth and I'll have to spit it out.

Are these serious? Should I call my doctor? Thank you.

Hey, my name is Em231 and I think I can help you
I think you should call your doctor I don't think I it suppoes to take 20 minutes for a nose bleed to stop! I hope I helped

i got my period for the first time on thanksgiving and i used pads the rest of the week. they're pretty annoying, like having to worry about it and stuff. so i tried putting in a tampon just to see how it works and whatever. thing is i couldn't even get it in. i know how, i've read books and whatever lol but it just wouldn't go in. i'm like the last one of my friends to even get my period so i feel like an idiot because i'm basically the only one who doesn't use tampons. i have no idea what i'm doing wrong and i definetalyyy am not asking my mom or wtv for help. akward much?
so what do i do?

Hey, my name is Em231 and I think I can help ok
you should stick with pads because you can get a desease with Tampons like if you keep it in to long or you pull it out to quick. So, if you want to
use tampons you should ask your mom about it she
had her period way longer before you!

okay well yesterday i was messing around at my friends basketball yesterday.
i played some defence.
and so yeah i was defending and i was running with the person and i i dont know how to explain it.
like my ankel gave out and i fell really hard.
adn when i did this my ankel snapped.
it made a really loud noise.
my boyfriend took me to his house.
and had his dad look at it.
his dad said it was perfectly fine.
but it still hurts really bad.
like i can barely walk.
and that also worries me cause im pregnant (2 months and 11 days.)
it hurts very bad.
like i cant stand the pain.
and when i try to walk my ankel like cracks and snaps.
im very worried.
so my question is what should i do.
and does anyone have any idea what i did?

hey, my name is Em231 and i think I can help you
ok you probaly sprained it real bad ok !You should
elevate it on a pillow and put ice on it and try to stay off your foot. Thats what i did when I broke my rist ! If it don't lead off you should go to the
doctor ok! Just rest and don't do much!
I hoped I helped

Hey everyone Im a 15 year old girl in highschool and I need some advice. My used to be best friend recently started getting drunk about a month into our freshman year. At first she started talking about it and I got really mad at her for even thinking about it. I made her promise not to go drinking and promised me she wouldn't. Then I here on homecomming that she drank before the dance with some of my other friends but I just assumed that she was acting crazy at the dance, not actually drunk. I had to hear from SOMEONE ELSE that she drank. So indtead of confronting her I gave her a complete silent treatment for 3 weeks. She finally wrote me a note saying how she was sorry how she messed up our friendship, how we used to be best friends, how shes an idiot, how shell never drink again and stuff like that. I decided to forgive her a few days later. So time went on and we were cool, but then like 4 days ago i found out she FOR SURE was drinking over the weekend. Then today I found out shes planning to go get drunk this weekend. Ive stopped talking to her since i found out she drank last weekend. Am I doing something wrong? How do I handle this? Do i talk to her? I care about her soooooo much. she also has a problem with being taken advantage of by boys. Her mom has cancer, her dads an ex meth user. She keeps trying to work things out with me but I always brush her off. Sometimes im pretty nasty w/ her. Theres more sides to the story, but i think im running out of room so i'll stop. Thanks for taking the time to read this...

BHKchick

Hey, my name is Em231 and i thimk I can help you
the silent treatment won't work to long because if
you don't have a convosation with her she will keep
drinking and drinking and she might get real sick.
You need to talk to her one on one because if you
don't who will try to stop her no one because no one
gives a crap if people get sick and die!
I hoped i helped

hey whatsup. my names casey.
im in 7th grade and im thirteen.i live in bermingham alabama & i go to a christian middleschool, so theres only one class per grade [sucks i know]. But lately the boys in my grade have been really immature. All they talk about is how "hot" the eigth grade girls are, and they never talk to US anymore they just talk to the eigth grade girls. They say were jealous of them. I say NOOO. Girls like to date older guys...am i right? Well then why the hell are these losers non-stop flirting with the boys in our class!?! They have their OWN boys in THEIR class!!
The point is: i dont know wat to do about getting the boys to notice that we [seventh graders] have something to offer to NOT JUST OLDER GIRLS!

HELPPPPP.

-Casey

Hey, my name is Em231 and i think I can help you you
are right about boys they do like older girls you
know you don't realy need to do anything to make them notice you 7th graders just be your selve
and they will come around when you start developing you know what i mean LOL .Or if you do want to change you can put I liner and eyeshadow that makes you look older and just play flirty for a day or
play hard to get promise you they will like that

My mind is troubled. I am thinking about suicide. I know it isn't the answer, yet I have been thinking about it for years, but have done nothing. I am not suffering from depression, but I am a bit depressed. I get aalong each day yet there is an empty void inside me that has no solution. It eats at me everyday all the time. Suicide seems like the only solution. The more I deny it the more I want it. I can't inflict pain on myself, but if I were to do it it would be by pills. I am not saying I am going to, just that I think I think about it too much. I have no religion. I believe that when you die, your soul moves on and takes you to the place you truly desire. Not heaven. For me I belive that my soul will take me to another body of the alias and world I created in my mind. Mostly I created it for an escape from family and life, but lately it has become an addiction.

What should I do. I can't talk to my parents, a therapist, without anyone knowing, but I am afraid that one day i will end my life. and that pull to do it is getting stronger, not because I am depressed, but because I am curious, and the void is pulling towards it.

I really need help.

Hey, my name is Em231 and i think I can help
don't think about suicide think about something else.I have to tell ya that you will eventually have
to let out your feelings it will make you feel alot
better that is the first step. If you keep it all in side you will make your selve worse and make your selfe sick!I think you should talk to someone that
you love like a parent, sibling ,friend or any one
that you know loves you! Or you can go straight to
a Physichiatrist they help alot ! I hoped i helped

Ever since Thanksgiving, when I visited relatives in a cold/windy climate, my lips have been very chapped- especially after I returned home. Now, it looks like it's in the healing process, but my lips are extremely dry/flaky. I tried using cocoa butter, which works for a while...and I've tried vasaline, which also works, but when i wake up, my lips are still dry and flaky. Is there anything else I could do to make my chapped lips better... something that'll actually take care of it? There's lots of dry skin, I think mainly since it's beginning to heal, but it's taking forever to get better.

Hey, my name is Em231 and i think i can help you
I have extremely dry lips to I'll tell you what
I do ok ! I put on this chapstickcalled
"Chapstick skin Protectant/suncreenSPF4
Classic" ! I put that on my lips and keep puting it on threw the day and it only takes 1 or 2 days to
heal!
I hoped I helped!

Ok well in Religion we have to make a very realistic looking birth Certificate for JESUS!

And I never saw one before or even mine by any chance. i just know that they have the baby's foot prints.

Can someone help me with that?

And can you only get a certificate if you were born in the hospital?

Because Jesus wasn't born in the hospital if you know what I'm saying..

What else could i include?

Hey, my name is Em231 and i think I can help you
here are a couple things you can put on the
certificate
1. you can put what day he was born on.
2.his mothers name & fathers name
Also put his name on it !
I hoped i helped!

my sister and i always snoop out presents, so we know what we're getting every year. this year, the main thing i wanted was a new digital camera- a NICE one. it was the only big thing i asked for. [last year it was an ipod nano, which was then $200, and i got it.] the camera i picked out was less than $200. well, we were snooping and i found a digital camera. it's NOT what i wanted at all, and they know exact what i want in one. there IS a possibility it isn't for me, because another family member wanted one. but i'm almost positive it is.

so my question is, if it is my present, how do i let my parents know it's not what i wanted, without hurting their feelings? i ABSOLUTELY hate to sound like i'm not appreciative of what i get, because i am. but since this is the only big thing i wanted and it's not even really what i wanted, i'm disappointed. help?!

Hey, my name is Em231 and i think I can help
you can't help I t that it is not want you wanted
so , when you open your presents just tell them
the truth and you can rexchange it and get the right
one it won't hurt there feelings because you can rexchange it.My parents never get there feelings
hurt when i don't like things !I hoped I helped

P.s it can be pony tail, pigtails, Braides, One braid, bun Doesnt matter.

thanks =)

Hey, my name is Em231 and I think I can help
what I would do is make small braids in the back
and then make it up on top of your head so every
one can see the prety small braids that would
be pretty and i'am sure friends and the guy you
like will like it !
I hoped I helped!:)

I admit, I am a worrier...and I tend not to deal with stress constructively. I am very stressed out right now. Almost every day I feel like my heart is in my throat. I lose my appetite (though I do eat),my stomach feels like it's gonna flip, and sometimes when I wake up my heart starts racing at the thought of the things I have to take care of. I have already graduated college, and the thought of what I am to do now, afterwards, is literally draining me. I can't even think straight anymore- stress is getting the best of me.

I am generally a relaxed person, but right now I'm so tense. Does anyone have any advice as to how to relax and take my mind off things, but at the same time get things done? (e.g, ways to ease stress)

Hey, my name is Em231 and i think I can help
you! All you have to do is breath in and out
2 times ,think about something else or do
your favorite things to get your mind off
things.Just stay focused and everything will
go ok!
P.s.
"I know how you feel I'am a real worrier
to don't feel bad"!!
