  • Dark brown kinda black stool?

    This just started last night. But yesterday my stool went from orange in the morning, normal all day, and then dark brown diareahish right before bed. I know I heard it could be bleedig from ulcers, but could it also be this? For the past week I've had a bunch of bloody noses, and for most them I tilted my head back and letthe blood drain down, (gross and nasty but I couldn't find tissues, and I wasn't about to get blood allover my house) it's been happening at least 1 time a day all week. Could that be th culprit of the sudden but slow changes?

  • Can my teacher really threaten to give me a zero on this?

    So my orchestra teacher (who is pretty idiotic by the way) wants our entire class to go to a festival (bunch of orchestras from schools play and you get a plaque) but it's during school. On a Friday. Or more accurately named "the day I have like 4 or 5 major tests" my parents also don't want me to leave school for 5 and a half out of the 6 hours when most of it will be spent listening to her rant to us about stories and giving us a 3 hour 'lunch break'. I told her about 3 weeks ago I couldn't attend because I didn't have a parents permission to leave campus for this 'field trip' (she says it's more important than one) and that I will get a zero for the grade (it's 100 points and is labled as a 'test' so it's worth about 20% of my grade.) she told me there's no way to make it up. But I'm pretty sure if her favorite student said they had a hangnail she'd let them stay at school. Shouldn't she be forced to give another assignment for those of us whose parents don't want us missing major tests, or people who can't play because of an injury?

  • Bro Day for spirit week?

    ok, so my student council is made up of idiots who always pick either really specific spirit week days, or days that could mean anything. So, in a few weeks our first spirit week will start... All the days make sense ; u ; Theres patriotic day, pirate day, fairy tale day, black and silver day (our school colors) and then... oh god... Bro day... what the HELL is bro day supposed to be?!

  • I think my dad has anger management issues?

    Alright, so the title says it all. My dad is a 'military dad' you know, tall, dark, yells a lot? He's impatient all the time and he solves his problems by yelling most of the time, or at least raising his voice. For an example today he was trying to grill chicken (I printed him instructions, needless to say he didn't follow him because he has superior knowledge and he 'knows what he's doing') needless to say it took almost 3 whole hours for the chicken to be cooked, after we ate he started to randomly yell and insult my focus and how I never listen to him, it was pretty hurtful and sudden and I cried a little of course. Afterwards he said he was sorry for yelling, but he throws fits andtantrums like that usually 3 or 4 times a week usually focused at either me or my mother. It's hurtful and he's been like this my entire life and depending on if I go to college in state I have 7 or 8 years with him and my mom left. I don't know what to do, and we don't really have a relationship anymore. My mom thinks it's simple to forgive him for missing some of the most important things in my childhood and never being there emotionally for me. But I don't know how to stand up and tell him he has a problem, or how to deal with him. But I know I need some answers.

  • Scared to take permit test?

    Ok, so I'm taking my permit test July 1st, and I'm utterly terrified to take it. Mainly because I have an extreme fear of driving and I know once I get my permit my parents are going to have me drive while they relax. . I also havnt studied for it, (my parents gave me an 80 page booklet about the DMV but none of the information in it is about taking my permit or questions to study for the test, I told them i've seen my friends with tiny pamphlets that help you study for it.) so I'm not prepared for it, and parents don't believe me that I'm scared to learn how to drive. I know i wouldnt be a good driver because while i dont have ADD or anything of the sorts I can get distracted very easily, and my eyes are hyper sensitive so staring ahead at the blazing Arizona road and sky causes me to squint, and my parents always tell me stories about car crashes and how people die in them all the time, but then they act like I should be exicted! I don't know what to do, and this fear and anxiety isn't new, Im riddled with anxiety issues and are prone to panic attacks and nervous breakdowns whenim stressed or scared, how do I explain this to my parents? Or at least muster up the courage to take the test?

  • Dad thinks I'm faking my severe anxiety and panic attacks?

    Ok. So I was crying softly (when youcry but its just tears, no sobbing or noises) because my dad was really mad at me for saying I don't know to his questions all the time. Then out of nowhere my anxiety kicks in and I go Ito a severe anxiety attack, hysterical sobbing, hyperventiliating, and I become really dizzy. Instead of trying to make sure I was okay, my dad starts yelling at me! Which in turn makes it even worse, and then he calls me a big baby, and that I'm just faking my anxiety. He then storms out of my room and I eventually calmed down... My mom told me she'd make me an appointment with a therapist to get me checked out. But my dad thinks I choose anxiety, and he refuses to believe it's a mental condition... How do I convInce him that it's real and teach him how treat me when I have an attack, and that yellig at me makes it worse?

  • Parents don't believe in my severe trypanophobia? (fear of needles)?

    Well it's flu season, and my parents say I need the flu shot. However, I have severe trypanophobia, when my parents try talkig to me about getting the shot I burst into hysterical crying fits, they usually have to physically force me to go to the doctors.

    They understand I have a fear but refuse to believe it causes me extreme stress and anxiety. I've gotten to the point where if a doctor mentions needles I start to hyperventalate, I'm also getting extreme "fight or flight" messages from my brain, as in "I'm either kicking this doctor in the shin or jumping out the window to escape" messages.

    My parents again refuse to believe it's that severe and don't understand the fear I go through, I asked if I could get the flumist instead, and they said no, I'm getting the flu shot like everyone else. Is there anyway to convince my parents of my trypanophobia?

  • What's it like getting the flumist?

    I'm 15 and u have severe trypanophobia, so instead of getting a flu shot I was thinking about the flumist, but I've never had it before, does it sting your nostrils? Does it have a weird smell? I know the side effects are runny nose, fever, and sore throat, but I just want to know what it's like.

  • How do i explain to my parents that i have extreme anxiety?

    I have extreme anxiety in many areas, Claustrophobia, Pyrophobia, and other phobias that dont really have a name.

    I have an extreme fear of hospitals, needles, and doctors, which my parents know of, since i had a number of traumatic experiences with doctors throughout my entire childhood. I also have an extreme fear of trying on clothes in front of others, and stripping down. So since a young age i've had to go into changing stalls by myself.

    Also, i have an extreme fear of showing my emotions, so whenever my parents ask me about something and if something is wrong i automatically say no. And i have a fear of crying in front of others, and my mind is an *** and likes to make me cry when i try talking about emotions. So i have a lot of bottled up emotions.

    My parents dont seem to understand it though, i've gone to a counselor for my doctor fears, (she tried solving everything with hugs and kisses and friendship... so we stopped going to her.) and they just dont like listening to me. They can see how emotional i get when im in tight spaces, or at the doctors, but they treat me like i just told them to go to hell instead of being on the verge of tears and hyperventilating.

    A few days ago even i had to go to the doctors to get my back checked out because i pulled some muscles near my spine, and i had to change into one of those hospital gowns, and i had an anxiety attack, and while i was in tears and telling my mother i couldnt change into it she yelled at me in the exam room, cussed me out, and threatened to hurt me if i didnt do it, talking about how i was embarrassing her.

    I dont think my parents realize how severe my anxiety is, and i've asked to go to a therapist but my mom will look for a few days, then stop and ignore the problem. Im afraid that since im already at such a dangerous level of anxiety that i might be stuck in this rut for life unless i get help, and i just want my parents to acknowledge it, and make me feel better and empower me about my anxiety, not treat me like im a five year old that pulled on their hair or drew on the walls.

    I guess i mainly want to go to someone who will tell them that they need to talk to me in a calm voice, and that resorting to yelling and cussing and threatening only makes my anxiety worse and worsens the situation.

  • Is this a healthy vegetarian diet?

    Alright, so I've been a vegetarian for about 7 months now. My diet consists of different pastas, white and brown rice, differety done potatoes, beans, cheese, pita, whole wheat bread, and different types of fruit juices and water.

    Daily I eat usually a cheese stick or some cereal for breakfast, I go to highschool, so my diet for lunch consists of a bean and cheese burrito with whatever fruit or veggies they have. And my dinner is usually either rice, mashed potatoes, pasta, or ramen. I take multiple vitamins to cover the proteins and calciums and different nutrients I'm not getting, but is this a healthy lifestyle?

  • Auditioning for Musical?

    alright, so im trying out for my highschools musical, and i dont know what it is yet since they'll decide based on the talent pool and the girl to boy ratio. But ther eare 3 auditions you have to pass. singing, dancing, and acting, i have dancing and acting down, but i have to sing a song that would be considered 'musical theatre' no pop, rock, or metal songs. She said Disney and animated movie songs would be fine, but not to sing anything from the Sound of Music or the Little Mermaid, any ideas? Im a female, not an experianced singer so nothing to low or high pitched please, nothing to slow or extremely fast. I was even thinking maybe something from Tangled, since thats about as musical theatre as Disney's gonna get... Any ideas?

  • People i can cosplay as?

    Ok, so im 15, a girl (but my breasts are B cup but... their invisible when i wear shirts), im about 5'6 1/2, i have a little longer than shoulder length blonde hair, and able to get most clothing things, but things like armor, nuns outfits, anything like skirts or dresses, or anything skimpy i cant wear. And im not allowed to die, or cut my hair any shorter than just above my shoulders.

    Basically i need to cosplay as either an anime, or game character for an upcoming comic con, i have a few months, and have the basic supplies needed.

    I can cosplay as both girls, and guys (though the guy obviously cant be some giant super-buff mega super-hero guy like Thor or anything)

    And any ideas of where i can buy things for the costumes (accesories, fabric, make-up, shoes) would be nice (note i cannot buy things online)

    Mainly im looking for ideas, im considering if i cant find any good suggestions here to do Viral, since i already have the same hairstyle as him in the Timeskip part, when its like, 7 years later (Viral from Gurren Lagann in case you didnt know)

    If you think thats a good fit, any ideas of how to get things, or get ready would be nice. (like how to make his beastman cat claw like hands, or to get all my teeth to look like his "Shark" ones, and how to make his cleaver, (out of like, a stick and some foam or something i can cover in bandages, since in the time skip he has it covered in bandages)

    If you dont think thats a good fit ANY suggestions are welcome, and maybe a link to their picture, or a wikia about the anime or game. Please and Thank you!

  • Hormones? or something else?

    Ok, so lately in the past couple of months i've been getting lots of head rushes, hot flashes, extreme pain that induces puking during my period, and at night i get these urges of extreme hunger, more like "The Munchies" but nothing sounds good to me, but i feel like if i dont eat i'll puke... and then afterwards i usually go through emotional fits that are usually in this order Happy, Sad, Angry as hell, Sobbing, Happy again. And im paranoid as heck, everything seems like its out to get me, and i swear i hear people call my name, and see things all the time. so im wondering if maybe i just have some hormonal thing going on, or maybe a mental thing. oh, and im mid teens, so im not like, going through some hormonal early menopause or anything.

  • Hp Photosmart Printer/Copier/Scanner/Web Wont install software disc?

    So i got an Hp Photosmart All in one Wireless. My mom took the disc from me after i set up the printer and installed it on her laptop. it worked fine. But when i put it into my laptop about halfway through installing it a small pop up appeared saying "Fatal Error in Installation." it then spent 10 minutes to uninstall it. Restart my computer. and gave me some advice that really didnt help me at all. I tried about 3 more times. still wont work. Any ideas? Is the disc bad? Is it my laptop? Is it because my mom installed it on her laptop first? (Its my Photosmart. i dont know why she took my disc. Its only for me since she already has a printer, copier, AND Scanner.)

  • Would you say something is wrong with me?

    Sadly i feel really odd. I think im becoming paranoid....

    I cant stand to have people touch me lately, the mentioning of someone even touching me puts me in a horrid mood. And i rarely eat nowadays. I skip lunch at school (im in my teens) because im never hungry.

    I seem to be always angry, and my moods are always changing, usually randomly with no given reason.

    I have been getting very poor sleep, since i can never seem to stay awake during the day, and it takes forever to fall asleep at night.

    I want to be alone, all the time, always alone, and when people try to get me to interact with them, or talk to them, or they ask me questions i tend to snap answers back, give an attitude, and become enraged.

    And i cant make myself motivated to complete anything, whether its my artwork, doing schoolwork, talking to friends, or helping someone plan something. I just have no mental energy or spirit.

    No clue why im acting like this, and i dont need "oh its your teenage hormones hun, dont worry" because i get enough of that crap from my friends and family. I doubt lack of sleep, always being tired, and inability to have fun and becoming a loner is what normal teenagers do. since all of my friends and everyone i know my age are peppy and happy.
