First of all, to the person who answered this before me... weed is not a physically harmful drug in of itself. There are no cases of marijuana killing anybody. It's just as dangerous to become addicted to video games. Becoming addicted to ANYTHING is harmful.
ALSO MARIJUANA IS NOT ADDICTIVE on it's own. Any feeling you have of being addicted to it is purely mental- you think you need it. There are no cases of withdrawal from people when they stop smoking. You just need to get motivated. You won't get the shakes. You won't hallucinate. You are not addicted. The only thing that you need in order to stop smoking is to just have some willpower.
Also, I consider smoking anything a bad habit, but it's a personal opinion.

15/F. I am physically a healthy girl but I am cowardish girl. When ever I come across a situation when I have been badly critisized or get anger of any body, suddenly I release few drops of urine, some times more drops which I can easily feel in my panty and I feel my body is shaking with fear. Altough I am a healthy girl and no habit of urine passing during sleeping etc.Please advice. (link)

This sounds like a stress issue more than anything- I don't think it has anything to do with being "cowardly". Instead, I think it may be your body's defensive mode switching on when you feel threatened or put in a stressfull situation. Everybody's body reacts in different ways to stress- the most common reaction is the tensing of the muscles, but I think accidental peeing is up there too. Try and mellow yourself out when stressfull situations arise, or maybe find a stress-releaver for yourself, like writing poetry or excercising.
If all else fails, a regular doctor will most likely be able to point you in the right direction.
Hope i helped!

i have a really bad phobia of brown recluse spiders. its getting to the point where i cant sleep at night, and im contstantly checking under chairs, under tables, on walls of smaller spaces, and on celings and corners of rooms when i walk in, and i always feel like somethings crawling on me. i feel like im going crazy, what can i do to get over this??

Eesh. Spiders. Brown Recluse are nasty, yes, but I doubt you'll find them in your home. Still, the fact that you're very hyperaware about them is a little odd. Have you considered the posibilty of having slight Obsessive Compulsive Disorder? It's pretty common, and it affects people in many different ways- some people NEED to be clean, others have to check and re-check things constantly, etc. It's perfectly normal to be on-edge when OCD involves something a person fears. You may want to talk to your family about this, because they'll probably be able to A) calm you and B) help you overcome this. Good luck!

Ever since I was 14, I could read people's minds. It scared me at first, and it still sort of does because I don't know much about it.
Sometimes it happens randomly. I'll be thinking of something and suddenly I start to think something completely different that I can't control. This has happened with my siblings and parents before, and I've been able to tell them exactly what they were thinking/feeling.
My family is thinking about sending me to a doctor (I know this because they think about it alot). But there's nothing wrong with me.
Is this mind-reading thing normal? How do I tell my parents to not send me away? =( (link)

There is absolutley no need for you to see a doctor- nothing a man with an MD can keep you from reading minds. I know about 3 people who have the same issues- they pick up thoughts from people spiritualy or mentally close to them. Many people think it's because of past-linked lives, like if you knew someone in a past life that you know now, you share similar memories and inner conversations. For instance, my mom makes jewelry for a living, and one day she was struggling with a design that involved crescents and circles.. she signed on-line and a close friend of hers asked her what she was thinking about, because he kept getting images of circles and crescents in his mind.
This mind-reading ability is rare, and it can be used to your advantage greatly. It's also called "sending" and "recieving". It sounds like you're a "reciever".
I hope I helped! Best of luck with your family.

is talking to yourself healthy or is it a sign of a mental illness? Because i talk to myself a lot. is it healthy (link)

I talk to myself all the time- It's a good way of organizing your thoughts, especially if you have a short attention span, like me :). Most people talk to themselves- it's completely normal.
