I'm 19 and have an extreme fear of driving. I have my license, but everytime I attempt to get over my fear, I end up having a panic attack and not being able to think. I am okay with side streets with no cars, but once I get onto busy streets with traffic, I'm terrified. I don't know exactly what triggers it, but I think it's because I'm afraid I'll blank out while multi-tasking (as in reading road signs/directions & staying aware of other traffic), make a mistake & end up getting into an accident. I'm not ADD, but I don't think I am capable of thinking about everything at once - if that makes any sense. I have to move out in a couple months leaving me with no choice but to drive myself around. I am just wondering what can help me get over my fear of driving with other cars? Thank you. (link)
Basically as scary as it is, the only way to get over the fear is to do it. To practice driving on busyer and busyer roads until you are used to it. At first you will feel tense and scared but once you feel yourself relaxing, thats when your conquering your fear.

Are there any waxing products made for your bikini area that you can buy like at a meijer or rite aid?

(link)
I know you can buy waxing kits in rite aide. The best products are Nair or Sally Hansen, and i know both companies have specific wax for the bikini area


okay there's this song i heard & i really like it.

it starts off "once more i'll say goodbye" or something. then the chorus is kind of yelling & saying something that sounds like "all these things revolve around you". i don't think those are the exact lyrics but i couldn't find it on any lyric website.

anyone know what it is? (link)
That would be All These Things I Hate (Revolve Around Me) by Bullet For My Valentine

I guess this would go under fitness?

But at soccer pract. we were doing sucides and sprints and crap and we'd have a few secons to rest inbetween and i was bent over (because i was tired) and my friend said to keep my head above my heart, and then today we did the same thing and my coach said to keep standing up straigh and don't put out heads down. so i was wonder if you do bend over after running what will happen? will you just get dizzy and faint? (link)
Yea you will get dizzy and faint. Keeping your head above your heart keeps the circulation moving and your blood flowing, Letting blood go to your heart and your brain easier


So me and this boy are great friends, seriously. I kinda like him, but no one knows, and we flirt all the time. I can't help it, I'm a natural flirt. But I heard he was going to ask me out, and I asked my friends what they thought and I got mixed replies. Some think we wouldn't look good together, some think we should go out, stuff like that. I mean I want to say yes, but I don't want it to be weird. Because right now, me and him are pretty free around each other and nothing is awkward. I want to go out with him, and not have people make fun of me and I want things to stay the same. What should I do? Thanks

I suggest you go out with him. You said you want to but you dont want anyone to make fun of you but who cares what they think of you! Dont hold yourself back or be scared to follow through with something oyu want


Windows:

You know how there's the address bar, and when you start typing, a drop down list will appear under the address bar? Well i went onto a nasty site a while ago, and its on the drop down menu. is there any way i could get it off? (link)
Yup put your mouse on it so its highlighted and hit delete
Nvm that works on mine, Well another way is
go to the tools tab
then on the way bottom there is Internet Options
then there's a little section called history
and theres a button called Clear History. Click that and then exit.




Is there a such thing as a push-up swimsuit? Like a push-up bra? Because my senior class is going to wild waves at the end of the year and I am so flat chested for an 18-year-old I really, really want one!!! (link)

i keep eating. like, constantly. i never ever eat this much. & im like not fat atttt alllll.
but, its been like an obbession. & i try not to
eat but i feel like im starving, i mean like what i've already eaten today was like:
-2 pieces of toast
(i normally dont even eat breakfast)
-grilled cheese sandwich
-2 brownies
-& soup.

& its only 5:00.
i've never eaten that much, like ever.
whats up with me? (link)
Im really thin and the same way! Even though you feel hungry, chances are your not really HUNGRY just your mind makes you feel as if you are. there are many different reasons people eat, cause they are happy, sad, bored ect. chances are your bored. food gives you something to do. Try doing homework, cleaning up, or just ocupying yourself so you dont eat as much. On the otherhand, its not bad your eating, and if it doesnt make you feel sick, you dont have to stop


Well ive been dating this great guy for about 4 months now and since i started dating him i kind of didnt hang out with my friends anymore...
I need to have my friends back how do i get them back. I need to hangout with them too because what happens if my relationship fails in the long run and i have no friends!?!

please help

thanks (link)
Make sure you spend time with both. Set aside girl time and you and him time, tell your boyfriend you need to spend time with the girls adn im sure he will understand and relize he hasnt cought up with the guys much. Apoligize to your friends adn let them know how much you missed them. Never let relationships get in the way of friend ship


2 years ago, I saw a play at a high school a few towns over. I don't think I know anyone who goes there... I saw it because my mothers coworkers daughter was in it, but she graduated. Anyway, there was one guy who was in it, and I really liked him from afar during the play. I just remembered him a few days ago, and can't stop thinking about him. Does anyone have any ideas on how to meet him?
ps I know his name, and I've found him on facebook, but I don't want to friend him... I don't want him to think I'm a freak. (link)
You just casually talk and try and become friends first. Also dont forget he may be cute but you dont actually know him, maybe you had more of a crush on his character then actually Him.


I spent the night at two of my best friend's houses two nights ago. We were talking about our secrets and I didn't really have any, so they started saying there's. After saying a few, one of them asked the other if they could tell me "the secret." She started freaking out and was saying how I would think she was a freak and stuff. They finally told me and the secret was that they used to cut themselves. I feel so bad because I didn't know about it, so I couldn't help them in any way. One of them is extremely sensitive and the guy who caused her to start doing that is moving into her neighborhood, so it's possible she could continue cutting. If she does, what are some signs? I know like wearing long sleeve shirts all the time and stuff, but are there any others? Like just the way they act or something? (link)
Yes everything that person said and maybe to help her prevent cutting spend alot of time with her and let her know what a great friend she is and how much she has to offer.


to make a long story short, there was a red article of clothing in the white load of laundry, which was washed on the warm or hot cycle. thus, the white clothes turned somewhat pink. one of my faovrite all-white shirts and an all white tank top were in there, and i was wondering how i could get them white again? bleach, or just try to wash them a few times again? (link)
Bleach.:) Make sure you dont have any colors in there when your bleaching! Good Luck


I am going to a high school school dance. I love dances but sometimes it is hard to get guys to ask me to dance. I don't want to ask guys because this dance is at my freinds school, not mine. I don't know any of the guys there. I am not shy when it comes to dancing.. I am a dancer! Anyways, how can I get guys to come up and ask me to dance (grind) with me? What should I do? (link)
Its good that your not afraid to dance, Just dont be too confidently dancing or the guys may feel intimidated, maybe smile at a few or get to talking to them first will help.

hey im 14/f
i know that theres NO way your boobs can just start growing faster unless you have surgery.

but are there any tips to make them look a little bigger? like certain clothes or something??
im a 34A (link)
Try pushup bras im around the same size and they work wonders for me. Victorias Secret has some nice ones that make you look larger as well


Does anybody know where I can find icons to movies such as Monty Python and Moulin Rouge? good icond I mean (link)
If your talking about icons for AIM or AOL try iconator.com they have tons of catagories for movies and such or you could use the search box(i think thats at the right side of the page)


Ok, i broke up with my ex-boyfriend about a month ago
but lately we've been talking, and ive deveploped feelings for him again.
Should i get backtogether with him, or not? (link)
Well first before getting back together think of why you broke up and how he treated you. If it was a clean break up and he was always sweet then why not? If he cheated or treated you badly or ignored you, why go through the pain again?




I don't want to have to goto the doctor or tell my mom, because she`ll think I`m just complaining and we don't have the money to goto the doctor, but every now and then for the past week and a half, i've had a sharp pain, like stabbing needles, about an inch or two below my left breast. And when i start to get that pain, randomly, it hurts to breath in and it lasts for a few minutes. Can anyone tell me why or what's going on? Please. (link)
I get this as well, im not really sure what it is but i think its some sort of heartburn. Anyways when i get it it KILLS i found the only way to get it away is to take small breaths and then gradually make them bigger GRADUALLY and it should leave in about a minute. At least thats what works for me
