Ways to contract genital herpes.
Posted Thursday April 26 2007, 8:23 pm
Are there any ways to get herpes other than from sex?
Sure, it's a pretty simple question, but everywhere I go they only talk about the sexual side.

Breast Pain
Posted Saturday April 21 2007, 4:40 pm
I'm a 17/f. I know it's normal to have a small difference in breast size, which I've had since I can remember. I also know breast pain or discomfort is normal at my age, but is it normal during adolescence for one breast to hurt more than the other?
My right breast (which is the larger one) is the one I've noticed hurting the most. They're both tender at times, but sometimes it's just my right side. I don't have any nipple discoloration or discharge, so it doesn't seem like a big deal, but I was just wondering if anyone was in the same type of situation.

eating problems
Posted Thursday April 19 2007, 11:50 pm
i'm usually really good at giving advice rather than accepting someone elses.
anyway.
for the past couple of days, i haven't been able to eat. Yeah, i'm hungry, sure it shows, but when i try to eat something, it never stays down.
it'll come back up hours later and i'm hungry again. i know its not a physical problem. its more like emotional. maybe i'm stressed so i get sick and it comes up. sometimes i dont eat because i'm not hungry, and then i eat when i do.
i'm not anorexic and i'm not stupid.
i just want to know, why this is happening, and whats wrong with me.

Frequent colds.
Posted Tuesday April 17 2007, 10:03 pm
I'm 15, I've been getting colds very frequently. Before spring break, (wich was 4 weeks long) I seemed to be getting them every other weekend. My weekend would go normal, and then on Sunday I would start to get runny nose, sore throat, fever etc. etc.. and then I end up being absent from school on Monday.
Well I just got back from break (no sickness at all the whole time), and this past weekend was my first weekend back, and i'm sick again. I'm guessing its either from stress of going back to school and getting my homework done Sunday night, or not lack of sleep. (wich I get up early on both Saturday and Sunday for church)
Can someone clear this up for me, so I know exactly what I need to be doing diffrent to avoid getting so sick every week ?

okay, I just read this article on anorexia, and now I'm worried I'm going anorexic!! I'm 5"9 and a half and 152 pounds, and I used to eat a lot but lately I've been cutting back so I can lose weight (I walk an hour every day).
I've cut my portions back by about half and instead of eating A LOT of high calorie stuff as snacks/etc i eat healthy low calorie stuff..but now I'm really anal about what i put into my body and etc..and sometimes I'll feel really dizzy inbetween 8 am and 11 am because i eat at 6am and dont have lunch till 11.

I've been eating one meal a day. I know this is probably not healthy...and I'm not doing it to diet. I just can't stop. I didn't have breakfast or lunch 2 days in a row and when i returned home I had a dinner which barely consisted of anything. I really am not dieting although I am overweight...I am content with myself. I'm sure this is not healthy but I do drink lots of water and juices. Can anything bad happpen to me?

can't "wake up"
Posted Wednesday April 11 2007, 8:35 pm
Hi, lately I've been the opposite of insomnia. Meaning I won't and can't wake up. Like, I will wake up and be wide awake, but when I start to move, or sit up I fall back asleep. I haveal tried everything I can think of: going to sleep earlier, not eating late, thinking of things, excersizing before bed, sleeping with no electronics on (t.v., lights, etc.), and the opposite of all of those things. What else can I do?
ps. I have been almost late for school 3 times now!

is it an eating disorder?
Posted Tuesday April 10 2007, 3:20 pm
Ok my friend just turned 15. last yr. she was a little over weight, in aug. (when we returned to school) she looked great she lost a few pounds. however she was still losing weight until she is basicly skin and bones. in dec. her parents took her to a doctor because they suspected something. She has to go every 6 weeks for a weigh in. Every visit she weighed less, and according to her nothing felt wrong and she was eating alot and NOT throwing up. The test showed nothing either. They said if she didnt stop she would have to go to a therapist.
However, last week (Fri) she went to the stomach dr. and was put on medication. she and her bff said it was some disease that makes her throw up her food. i asked (to her BFF not her):&q...
