I’m So Depressed. It Is All Piling and I Can’t Bear With It Any Longer.?
Question by CL: I’m so depressed. It is all piling and I can’t bear with it any longer.?
(1) I’m having personal problems with my dance company. I’m in this dance company in school that gives out scholarship to the students. I’m getting 30% of that scholarship. The thing is I think I’m overweight for it. We are more of ballet type of dance. Before someone from our company was removed because she was fat. Our mentor is always reminding me of my weight. By the way, I’m 132 lbs and 5’3″-5’4″ in height. I’m really trying my best in loosing weight but sadly I can’t do crash diet. I have this sickness, I’m not sure what it is exactly, something called like gas pain. I’m not sure because the doctor in the emergency just said it and I was still dizzy in pain. Anyways, the thing is crash diet is a no no to me. But I’m still doing it despite the effects because I really want to get thin. My Mom told me that I’m perfectly fine but hearing that from my Mom I think it is not true. I’m very conscious of my weight and I’m getting all shy when I see my reflection. Because all of my fat goes to my thighs and butt which is ridiculously ugly. Exercise is no good for me as well because I don’t have time for real. I’m a graduating student and work is ridiculously piled up. I’m also worried with the dance company because I don’t want to be kicked out because of my weight. I’m also drinking dietary supplement pills to help me loose weight but I’m very disappointed because instead of loosing weight I’m gaining them! I’m eating yogart and oatmeal like crazy. I’m only drinking warm water as well.
Should Drug Companies Be Able to Advertise Prescription Drugs on TV?
Question by Rupert Roo: Should drug companies be able to advertise prescription drugs on TV?
This is a relatively new thing that wasn’t here 15 or so yrs ago. For some meds, like Viagra, it is a non-necessary drug. But I see a lot of blood pressure and cholesterol drugs advertised. Also they are advertising heart stents??? Those are usually placed by interventional cardiologists (highly specialized)! I agree in a free market, but I think that this advertising could be potentially hurtful to the health care system as a whole as well as specific patients individually. Please tell me what you think, or does John P. Consumer not really care about this? Also, what changed that this is a new thing now, is it just an influx of new drugs or did someone in marketing get a bright idea? Thanks.
Dude, Gardisil DOES in fact immunize against cervical cancer! The vast majority, and I don’t know if it’s 70 or 95%, but something like that is caused by these 2 strains of HPV that are covered by Gardisil. It’s a quadravalent vaccine that covers 4 strains; the 2 that cause mostly all warts and the 2 that cause mostly all cervical cancer. It’s a vaccine that DOES prevent cancer.
I forgot, that I think the only thing profit driven about Gardisil is that the vaccine costs from $ 200-400 and the cost for chemo and hosptial stay if you have cervical cancer and need an ICU bed can be enormous (more than 100k easy).
Drug Addicted Family Member?
Question by Blundt Cake: Drug addicted family member?
How do you help someone who refuses to help themselves, even when they are in/out of jail, homeless, jobless, in denial, and don’t think they have a problem???? What do you do? Especially if they call from jail saying they’re being beat up, and then when out on bail, they say they are sleeping on a park bench, wandering around, not eating?
But still say they don’t have a drug problem, they just need “help” (money, car, housing) and say they’ve only used drugs a few times in the last couple of months, like that’s a good thing.
(and this repeats year after year)

Terrified to Fly!?
Question by Just me near dc: Terrified to fly!?
It’s a long story but I’ve flown all over the world and was never scared and then I had a terrible flight with turbulence and in the middle of it, we descended very fast, downwards. The pilot didn’t come on the PA system so I thought we were crashing. I flew a few times after that but it was always horrific for me. I can’t breath, my heart races and I just want off the plane, even out the door, if I could. The last time I flew, I had a AZ layover and didn’t get back on the plane. It took me a train and 2 rental cars to get back to DC. My question..Is this fixable? Talking to people doesn’t work because they can’t promise the plane I’m on won’t crash. Drugs, No, I’m afraid if I’m out of it when the plane crashes, I won’t be able to get off safely. Meditation, No. Nothing works. The thing people don’t understand is that *I’m not afraid the plane will crash, when I’m on a plane, in my mind, it is crashing.* I’m just waiting for the impact. I missed my own brother’s wedding in CA! Help!
I’m a logical person and know that planes are safer than cars but if you someone said fly to CA and back or give up one year of your life. I would lose the year. It’s an irrational fear. This much I know, I just don’t know how to fix it.
