Living with a person who has Anger Problems
Posted Friday January 25 2008, 7:28 pm
ok... I live with my boyfriend who I've almost been with for 2 years (I've only lived with him for like 6 months and this has panned out because of a family breakdown with my family) and we've gone through alot together. Theres an age difference I'm 17 and he's 19 but that doesn't really bother me or him.
He has always been a person who can get angry easily and his moods can change quickly. Its like he doesn't know how to control his emotions, even he says that he can't control his actions when he is angry. He knows and has accepted that he needs help and has made an appointment and everything but its not til March which is a little over a month away and he is worried about that cause he needs help quicker than that.

Unexplainable Bruise
Posted Tuesday January 22 2008, 12:41 pm
Over the weekend I got a random bruise on the back of my upper leg. At first it was so painful it hurt to walk. It stopped hurting but now it looks like its getting bigger. I don't remember ever doing anything to hurt myself either. Does anyone have any idea what it could be?

Skin problem.
Posted Monday January 21 2008, 8:18 pm
Alright. My left arm has been really irritated.
There is no rash. And it doesn't itch.
But, from the thumb, to my elbow my skin is so sensative.
When ever I move my arm, it burns, when ever I touch it, or its touched it burns. Its also extra sensative to heat or cold-ness.
Any idea what it is? Or what caused it?
By the way, I'm Fourtee years old, and female.

Is it an illness or not?
Posted Monday January 14 2008, 9:19 am
Well basically...
In the last 2 maybe 3 weeks Ive been suffering with various aches and pains, such as
-Headache,
Nausea,
Dizziness and
Chest Pains...
Also other little aches & pains like across the top of my eyes.
But worst of all, Im ALWAYS dehydrated. And often feel sick after eating, and I dont eat more than I should, I eat just under what I should eat, as I can only eat a small amount until Im full up.
I cant figure out what it could be, and it usually only occurs towards night time, however the sickness and dehydration is constant.
I get plenty of sleep so it cant be sleep related.
So Im really stuck for what it could be.

Back, Leg, Hip Pain.
Posted Sunday January 13 2008, 2:05 am
For the past month, I've been having problems with the right side of my lower back, my right hip and right leg. They hurt if I don't sit a certain way and it hurts to bend over. That's not really my main concern though because that happens to me on and off...usually just my back though.
My main concern is that every time I stand up, my right leg (from my thigh down to the tips of my toes) feels like it has a very painful heartbeat in it. It only lasts for a few seconds before subsiding. This happens every time I stand up after sitting down. Sometimes if I stand too long, it happens then too.
I can't seem to find anything about this on WebMD or any other site so I would greatly appreciate it if someone could hel...

anorexic thoughts
Posted Sunday January 13 2008, 12:41 am
Ok, so I know I really shouldn't even think about being anorexic or anything because I know how unhealthy it is and of the risk factors, but I can't seem to shake the thought of being anorexic. It's because I am like seriously 60 pounds over weight. I am considered obese, although I don't look it. The thing is I am really not happy with how I look or feel and it disgusts me big time. Does anyone know of how I can get rid of these thoughts on wanting to be anorexic? I'm not saying that I am, because I am not....at least not yet.

Face Getting Red
Posted Saturday January 12 2008, 4:33 pm
My face will start to blush or turn really red and sweat a little at the most random times. Its usually when I give a presentation or ask a question in class or even if any attention is called to me. It also happens just out of no where for no reason I can think of. How can I prevent this and get rid of it? Its very embaressing and have no idea to tell when it happens unless someone brings it up or if I feel it. Please I really really need help with this. I have a few presentations coming up at school next week so help me out. The crap about "believing in yourself" and confidence doesn't help at all so please dont say that. If anyone has any advice at all please tell me.
thanks

yeast infection??
Posted Sunday January 6 2008, 5:52 pm
Okay, well to start off.
I recently noticed that it was starting to smell 'down there'. Like even a couple hours after i would take a shower. Well then, just a couple minutes ago, i got out of the shower. And it was already having a weird smell to it. So i looked inside kinda, and there were kinda some white globby things. Im like 99% sure that its a yeast infection. Yeah well, me and my mom, i just can't communicate about these things with her. Its really emberrasing and hard, and miserable and realllly awkward for me. I would literally rather get my foot chewed off by a bird. But anyways, is there any way i can treat this without my mom knowing? any home remedies, medicine i could get at like target? And, what would happen if i wer...

Anyone know of medical care advice?
Posted Sunday January 6 2008, 1:59 pm
Ok, the answerer has a question this time.
First, for the last 2 months, I have been sick. I have been tender to the touch all over my body, and having muscle spasms. Does anyone know what this could be? Or someone that this has happened to as well?
Also, I have no insurance, and it's getting harder for me to get medical care. Does anyone know of free/low cost medical programs that are available? DHS is not an option, tried that already. Thanks in advance for any advice.

binge disorder
Posted Monday December 31 2007, 5:30 pm
I think I am developing an eating disorder. Over the past year I have gained about 15 pounds, and its because I've been eating more. Recently I've been trying to get in shape again but then I "give up" and overeat. Then after the fact I promise myself I'll do better tomorrow but the same thing happens. I wish I could break this on my own but it's just not happening and I think I need help. It's just, I am too embarassed about it to go to anyone about it. Nobody knows about it because I don't look overweight right now but I am still gaining weight and soon it will be apparent. What should I do?

Nosebleeds
Posted Saturday December 15 2007, 10:53 pm
14/f
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.
