dry mouth
Posted Tuesday April 17 2007, 1:58 am
i feel so uncomfortable when i make out because my mouth gets veeerrrrryyyy dry, and my tongue feels really rough when this happens. like i have very little saliva in my mouth.
most of the time i do have saliva in my mouth, but its like really watery (not like kinda thick and almost mucus-y like, so it coats your tongue and makes it slippery. hopefully this makes sense)
i try to drink as much water as possible, but i think i still might be a little dehydrated. i am also on a swim team and my mouth is exposed to chlorine. i know that it can dry out skin, but what about your tongue? like my tongue always feels really rough after practice.
any ideas?
thanks

Back Pain
Posted Monday April 16 2007, 3:21 pm
I woke up with really bad pain in my back. It took me around 2 hours to find a comfortable position to go back to sleep. Its a bit difficult to describe, but basically its a stabbing pain when I breathe in. It could be my lung, because I only get it when I breathe in or out. I tried doing a few things to narrow down the possibilities. If I breathe air in and hold it there, the pain stays. If I breathe air out and leave it, the pain is gone & there also isn't pain when I move around. So, it definately has to do with my breathing. It could be a muscle, but I think it would hurt if I moved around. I tried moving around without breathing & there was no pain, but as soon as I took a deep breath, the pain started again. Any idea what this...

Eating Disorders
Posted Monday April 16 2007, 10:37 am
My daughter has been purging off and on for the last year...that I know of... She declares that she is at a point where she is ready to stop...and indeed has not purged for some time. However, at times, when she eats, normally, her food does not seem to stay down... and she feels like vomiting even though she may not want to... I understand that this is probably an after effect of her making herself throw-up off and on for over such a long period of time. Is there anything we could do "naturally" to help ease her body back into accepting food and keeping it down. Thank you so much for answering our question.

sleep
Posted Sunday April 15 2007, 10:59 pm
Usually I am very good with sleeping and I can get to sleep within maybe 15 minutes and not wake up or have problems sleeping during the night. But lately I haven't been able to sleep at night, it's been really difficult for me to fall asleep initially. I thought maybe it was because a lot of stuff was coming up so I was stressed but it's really not more than usual. If it keeps being a problem should I look for some like sleeping pill or something?

Having enough sleep damnit
Posted Sunday April 15 2007, 8:10 pm
Ok I'm gonna burst now. I haven't had enough sleep at all for the past few months. My room's in a very bad position. The road is just right in front of my room and the moment cars whiz by, I wake up, esp if they are huge trucks or buses.
In fact, my whole house is in a very bad arrangement. I live in a single storey house and all the rooms are exposed to the living rooms, kitchens and my neighbours. My neighbours can actually look into our rooms. So whenever any noise is made in the living room , kitchen or by our neighbours, it gets heard in our rooms.
I'm going crazy. My eye bags are very horrible and I look awful. Someone please help me! My dad and my sis seem to be able to sleep through all these noises b...
