im 16 and i have a little bit of a lisp. every once in a while i get made fun of it either behind my back and sometimes to my face. even my friends have asked me to repeat certain words because i "say them funny". i dont find it funny at all because its something i cant control. i hate reading in class and this problem is making it so i loose confidence in myself when im talking to someone and i get really nervous when i have to speak out loud in class. i dont really know how long ive had a lisp. my orthodontist said i had a problem where i pushed my tongue against my bottom teeth, and she put metal prongs on the back of my teeth so i wouldnt put my tongue there. this could have caused this. but i need to fix it. i dont even want to hear about speech therapy, because i refuse to do it. i dont want to ask my parents because im embaressed of it, and i dont want anyone to find out if i was going. also i dont know if id be able to afford it right now. any advice at all would be nice i guess (link)

most speech impediments do not last forever, but they can in some people. There is nothing wrong with having a lisp...one of my best friends has one...I can only imagine how difficult it must be though having people make fun of you...there are a few alternative therapy options, but you would not only have to have parental consent because you are under 18, but you would also be required to try speech therapy first before they would try any other alternative therapy. My friend Chris is going through speech therapy now and they told him that there are a few alternative therapy options if it doesn't work out for him. If you went, you wouldn't have to let anyone know that you are going in the first place...you shouldn't be embarrassed to ask your parents about it either...they're your parents...they will totally understand...as hard as it is to believe...they were teenagers once too lol. Your parents can also have a physician write a letter to the insurance and the insurance can cover it. But it really is the best option...and it may not even take too long, but its like i said...no one needs to know (try going on a saturday morning or something) I looked online for alternatives just in case there were any...they all say that you have to go to speech therapy first...don't put it down too quickly...it might be just what you need

I would try checking toward the middle or end of this season...they'll post stuff on the website then about sending in audition tapes and where exactly to send them. If you just can't wait I would just send an audition tape to the MTV's NY studio and see what happens.

In short, I am unsure how to get over myself and put my son first.
In order to get over an ex of one year i started smoking MJ and sleeping with a former high school mate. The condom broke after the second or third time and i ended up pregnant. The major problem is I still love my ex and i am having difficulty with the question, "why God? why not my ex whom i loved and wanted to have a child with some day? why this person whom i dont deeply care for, who should have just been a blip in my life but now is much more?" i've been diagnosed with quite a bit but major depression is the main thing (to keep it short). i cry almost every day. i dont want to be a mom...im too crazy and impatient and angry. i hate myself for doing this to an innocent person.it makes me almost suicidal...but my beliefs wont allow me to hurt myself anymore or my child. (link)

This is a truly tough situation and you will have to make some tough decisions...you either have to learn to adapt to the incoming environment or accept that you cannot care for the child. If you are fully unable to care for a child at the time then you should give him or her up for adoption. You can choose the parents...you can even do an open adoption or hold interviews. By giving your child to another family he or she will have the loving care and environment they need to do well. I know it's a tough decision to make...but if you are unable to care for this child then it is the best option. You wont be hurting your child...you'll be helping him or her. The child will have a better life in the long run and you will have time to focus on caring for yourself and your personal problems.

I'm going to prom for the very first time soon and I was wondering if you had any prom advice? Like any advice in general? I always hear girls talk about humiliating things that happen because they weren't well-prepared. I always hear, "Ohh i wish I did this" or "Oh i wish I had when I needed it..."
so to anyone who has had a prom experience, what advice can you give me? (link)

Just go and have fun. Don't spend too much money on shoes because you'll just end up taking them off anyway...and make sure you bring a camera with extra batteries because you'll probably take tons of pictures. Dance like no one is watching...because everyone else is too so no one cares what you look like. Don't worry about you're hair too much. It'll all come down by the end of the night...it probably won't stay in place the way you want it to. Just go and be yourself and have a good time. No regrets. Those girls who have regrets are stupid. Prom is all about having fun with your friends and date (if you have one) and just being you. That's it...no strings attached.

okay so i know the titles pretty lame but i didnt know how else to explain it.
anyway, i have a boyfriend but my dad hates him so much because hes a lil older than me. so its been a secret from him. it helps the fact that he's a marine and is away for the time being..but when he gets home i really want to be with him, how can i be with him behind my over-protective dads back? (link)
| |
Truth is that sneaking around will only make your dad angrier. He will find out eventually and he'll be even more upset and more over-protective because you kept it from him. I've been there, done that. I would talk to your dad and tell him what you're feeling. If you talk to him and help him to understand what your intentions are he'll be much more understanding than if you sneak around behind his back. Just make sure that you show him that you are responsible enough to be with this guy. If you're going out with him tell your dad where you're going and when you'll be home...and stick to that time...if he gives you a time to be home don't argue with it and make curfew. It will show him you're responsible and he'll be more lenient the next time. Also give him time to get to know this guy...invite him over for dinner (with your dad's permission) and let them get to know and understand each other. It'll help a lot. Just don't sneak around...it's one of the worst things you can do.

i am new at my school in kentucky, ive made a few friends. but only 2 or 3 friends i am able to get togethor with over the weekends. i feel very lonely and stupid because my other old friends all fit into social groups and have lives outside of school and hang out with their friends, in groups. I feel so low because i dont do much over the weekends..I dont enjoy that. at all. I wish people invited me places, ive invited them places before but they never ask me to go anywhere. it upsets me because all of my old friends have lives, and I do not. I dont know what im doing wrong, Im a nice person and I talk to them and try to be very outgoing. I wish someone could help. (link)

starting a new school can be difficult. I live in Kentucky and people can be a bit scrutinizing of newer people. It's unfamiliar...but just put yourself out there...join some clubs that involve things you like or things you're interested in. It will open you up to new people with similar interests. You probably won't have much to do on the weekends starting out...but over time, as you make more friends you will. The only reason your old friends do is because they didn't switch schools so they didn't have to make new friends. Just always be yourself..People will like you for who you are as long as you let them in. Don't be afraid to try new things and get involved. You'll meet tons of great new people and make awesome friends who like some of the same things you do so there is always something to talk about.

well im in high school and i am practically fluncking everyone of my classes i cant seem to concentrate any advice? (link)
| |
It can be hard. Classes get harder every year and the teachers get tougher but doing the homework is a big thing. At my school the homework usually counts for about 30-40% of the grade. It's really important that it's at least done. If you make an effort the teachers recognize it. Also if you're having trouble in a certain class ask the teacher if you can stay after class or after school to get some help. They'll probably be more than likely to say yes, and if they don't ask if they know a good tutor. Also remember that tests usually count for the largest percentage of the grade. When I have a test I study for about 20 minutes...I then shut the book and do something like go on a walk or something for about 15 minutes...then I come back and study for another 20 minutes and take another break. The brain's attention span is only around 20 minutes so you will retain information better if you study this way. Also remember that peppermint stimulates brain activity so keep some mints with you...that will help (cinnamon reduces brain activity). Follow these tips, and don't be afraid to ask questions and you should be fine. Also (if it helps you) try making flash cards to study with. Some people are visual learners and find that much easier...it's all about what type of learner you are. if you need more information you can message me.

Join a club or a group of a hobby you like. You'll meet people with a common interest. I love theatre so I jointed the student theatre club at my school and made tons of new friends. We all have something in common so there is always something to talk about. It's a great way to meet people who like what you like. As for making friends just being yourself will work. People will like you for who you are.

does anyone know a good way to get rid
of upper lip hair? im 16/f. i dont really want
to wax, because if i start im going to have to
keep getting it waxed, same with shaving.
does bleaching it work? and if so where do you get it? and can you see it if its bleached?
i definately need some help with this, just some way to get rid of it. thankss (link)
| |
bleaching it usually does work. I don't know that there are any home bleaching kits...but most salons do it really cheap. You could also use a depilatory system like nair for your face. Yeah you'll have to keep using it when it grows back...but even with bleaching it that will happen. You'll have to keep bleaching it...if i were you I'd just get rid of it. Waxing and depilatory last an average of 6-8 weeks before any hair starts really growing back. It's really not that bad.

i get really random like stabbing pains that i can feel in my bones. they're mostly in my legs and arms and sometimes my back. i've had them for atleast a year and they last between a minute and 15 minutes. they're really painful. i'm not on any medication or anything. i've tried to get my dad, who's a doctor, to look at it, but he just shrugs me off. what can this be? (link)
| |
It would definitely talk to a doctor. It could be fibro myalgia. If it is it needs to be treated with medicine. I would either make your dad really look at you or go to another doctor to see what is going on.

i have allergies alright. lately ive been having a bad cough. its only bad when i sleep. every night im up 1-3 hours coughing. I think it might be a habit. I drink tons of water and there is alot of gunk in my chest. I take my perscription pills and other pills to help stop the cough. Guess what? It isnt working. I'm to the point where i cough so badly i throw up. please help me. i havent been able to sleep for a week.

I would definitely sleep propped up on pillows or if you have one of those pillows that looks like an armchair use that to help you sit up...also make sure that you get everything out when you cough it up...don't swallow any of it...that only makes things worse...also you might want to talk to your doctor to see if you can take mucinex DM it's got a really great cough supressant and will help loosen the mucus that wont come out. that should help too.

once your ears are gauged can you ... ungauge them???
Like make them go down to their normal gauge. (link)
| |
it depends upon the gauges...the general rule of thumb is that if your ears are gauged over an inch then they wont really grow back all the way...but if they are smaller just keep your gauges out and let them grow back together over time. It could take a while...but they will go back.

this is really ambaressing but my vagina was itching quite bad for a while so i scratched alot. now its alright again but the part where i itched is kinda worn out or however u say it. and it looks really weird cos its just haning there and it still itches sometimes.
so what is this? i dont rly wanna see a doctor cos its really ambaressing =/ (link)
| |
it definitely sounds like a yeast infection. It's not a big deal...but you should see a doctor. The doctor will give you an antibiotic and probably tell you to do to the store and get some monistat...it'll clear up really soon...and don't just get the monistat to avoid going to the doctor...you need the antibiotic because that treats the infection from the inside to keep it from coming back.

My boyfriend and I have been together for four years. I am so overwhelmed with the whole engaged issue. I feel almost like everyone is getting engaged around me, and they have only been with these guys for a month, should I push the engagement issue on him or just sit back and watch these 1 year or even 6 month relationships evolve faster then mine is! (link)
| |
in all honesty...don't push an issue you may or may not be ready for...he may not be ready for it either. Just because you've been in a relationship longer doesn't mean that pushing engagement is the right thing to do. Those couples you are talking about probably wont even actually get married...or the marriage will probably end badly because they haven't spent enough time together to really know the in and outs of the other. You have a serious advantage on the relationship front. Sit back and enjoy it...don't rush anything.

Okay, there was this music video I saw on TV a while back, its a song from the 80's, and im not sure what its called. the video it starts with a girl in the real world, she was like a waitress and she was looking at a comic strip and then she was in it and he was in the real world, and then it finally ends up they were both in the real world.
If I could get the title, that would be great.
I know its an 80's song, and a guy sang it. (link)

That's the video to Take on Me by: A-Ha. you can find the video on you tube

i was a virgin, and about.. 3 weeks ago i lost it. i was 4 days late with my period, so i bought a pregnancy test, i got negitave =) but is it normal for my period to be irregular?
(it hasn't been scene i first got it) (link)
| |
well it totally depends upon your age...it can take up to 4 years for a girls period to regulate...but after that four years it really shouldn't be irregular. I would suggest trying another test and if it still comes out negative, try talking to your gynecologist. He or she will be able to help.

ok i am on vacation as we speak. like, literally. and i havent gone outside once this whole week because my shoulders and shoulder blades have severe breakouts that i cannot seem to get rid of. how can i get rid of it and QUICK??? (link)

try and acne body wash...neutrogena has a really great one. Nothing will get rid of your acne as quickly as you like...but you should notice a difference right away...if that still doesn't help you could try the clean and clear advantage spot treatment and have someone put it on your acne spots...that should help too.
