I was just wondering if anyone has tried spray-on tanning. I do not want to harm my skin with regular tanning, but I don't want to look white as a ghost either. So, how do they do it? Does it look fake? Will it streak or wash off? Does anyone recommend it? (link)

ok here is what i have to say, i went for a spray tan for my junior prom. everyone that went into an automatic sprayer looked orange. i went to one where a women sprays it herself so your not streaky or anything. It is recommended that you leave it on for 24 hours before washing it off so your skin soaks it all in. for that 24 hours you do get orange because your skin is soaking in the good color, but once you wash it off it looked good. so if you do get one make sure your not going into public for about 24 hours or until you shower, and dont wear tight clothes rigth after you get it done. if you want to see pictures i have pictures just ask me a question personally and i will show you.. i recommend a normal tanning bed because a spray tan only lasts about 3 showers... but if its for an event it wont be that bad...

Ever since i met my friend Sean* he has always been suicidal. At least twice a month he would say he wanted to kill himself, yet it would never happen. We'd always see him the next day. He was over emotional, the most over emotional guy I'd ever met.
We'd get in a fight once a week about something stupid, he'd insult his friends all the time but if you were to insult him he'd get this look on his face like he was going to hit you really hard.
We got in a big fight and i turned him into the guidance office at my school for planing to commit suicide to get him back for the fight and what he did to me. He knew it was me who told and went off on me for being a bad person. I didn't know what to say to him anymore, every reason i could think of why he shouldn't kill himself he had something to contradict it, he was hard headed and wouldnt listen to me easy. I dont know if you have ever had anyone tell you that they are going to commit suicide over and over again and put the stress on you to talk them out of it, but it is more stressful than anything i've ever experienced. And going through that once a month wasn't helping my already stressful life, now that you have the story, i'd like to ask you if you have any advice as to what to say to him to make him change his mind and want to live his life. I mean there are so many kids who have cancer, or they are disabled who would do anything to be a normal kid like him, yet he just wants to throw it all away. Guidance has no advice on what to say and either does my therapist. What can be done to prevent this?
Thanks if you can help!

I use to be a "Sean". I felt abandoned with life and felt like no one really cared. I threw out words that i was going to kill myself or injury myself just to get attention from people and force them to say reasons why i should live. Mainly just them telling me they cared about me and that they wanted me around. I had a pretty rough life at home though. I don't know how this Sean's kid family is or anything. Usually people with anger problems like that or someone that plays like they are better then everyone and teases people but hates to be joked back with, usually have issues dealing with family or abandance where they feel the need to have to feel stronger then other people. So look more into what is going on in his life and try to find something that would make him want the attention. Letting him know that you care about him (which you obvisously do to put up with the fighting and care enough to write this to get advice) and that you want to help him. If you want try telling him you care and what not and see if his emotions change. give him a complement once in a while and see if over a few days his "wanting to kill himself" changes...
