How to get help from self harm?
I started cutting again and I need to get help. I'm 23 and a male so I shouldn't be doing this. I cut my upper thighs so no one notices. But I cut too deep the other day and now I can't walk right due to the pain. I think I might need medical attention, but I'm in the military so that's not an option, as I will get into a lot of trouble and lose rank. How can I get help and possibly medical treatment without military involvement?

2 AnswersPsychology6 years agoWhy was bootcamp so hard for me?
I'm a recently graduated marine who struggled a lot at boot camp. I'm not sure why. I struggled with simple tasks and the shooting everyone thought I was retarded. I scored an 89 on my asvab and was studying engineering before my enlistment. Why was it so hard for me. Will it get easier?

3 AnswersMilitary8 years agoCan I get a prescription for a strong antiperspirant in the military?
I'm about to be a marine and am headed off to bootcamp in 3 weeks. My hands sweat a lot and I was reading that you can get drysol prescribed at a civilian doctor. I'm not sure how the military doctors work, but would I be able to get drysol prescribed for palmar hyperhidrosis?
3 AnswersMilitary8 years agoHow can I get over my social anxiety/panic attacks?
I'm a 21 year old guy and my social anxiety has been getting progressively worse. It is especially bad in class. I get really nervous for no reason and I feel self conscious. I feel like I have to swallow a lot because my mouth starts watering and I start sweating a ton. And if these symptoms are not occurring, I'm worried they will start to occur which becomes the catalyst. I cannot go to therapy or take medication at the time so I need some practical solutions that I can start to implement immediately. Thanks in advance :-)
1 AnswerPsychology8 years agoHow should I handle this parental issue?
My parents are crazy and don't allow me to go out at night or do anything with friends. I'm 21 and moving out in 6 months to join the military. Today my dad confiscated my beer again and hacked into my facebook account. This happens often and everytime it does I have to sit down with my parents while they tell me about how irresponsible I am and how I need to act like an adult while they tell me all the things I am not allowed to do. How should I handle it this time? Should I put my foot down and tell them to respect me. I've already tried reasoning with them. I don't know what to do
1 AnswerFriends8 years agoHow can I get my parents to be less controlling?
I'm reposting this cause I didn't get any real answers; I cannot move out of my house. I cannot afford it.
I'm 21 years old and I currently live at home while I go to community college. I'm between jobs, but I'm enlisted in the marines. I will be going to basic in 5 months. My parents have become super controlling. They found out that I had a couple beers with a friend and freaked out even though I'm 21. They seized my computer and saw that I look at porn and once again freaked out and installed software on it. We had this big talk and they set rules which I don't think are fair. First, I'm not allowed to go anywhere except to school and the gym and I have to let them know exactly what I'm doing and when I will be home. Also, if I want to have a beer I have to ask permission even if I pay for it and I have to have it at home. Third, I have to go to church every week with them even though I'm not a religious person, and I'm not allowed to go out at night for any reason. Also, I'm not allowed to sleep past 8 even on saturdays and my parents don't let me hang out with friends (at my house) that they have not had a chance to talk with. I'm going crazy here. And I don't know how I'm supposed to deal with them for the next 5 months. Please help; I'm 21, but I'm being treated like I'm 14!

4 AnswersLaw & Ethics8 years agoDo girls mind if a guy's hands are sweaty?
I'm 21 and for my whole life my hands have sweat excessively. Generally, I sweat more than normal all over, but my hands are my biggest concern. I have hyperhidrosis so it's not nerves at all. I was taking medication for it, but I'm going into the marines and I wont be allowed to take meds for that there (idk why). I'll be without medication, so I'll be sweaty again. My question is do most girls (especially concerning dating) care about something so insignificant as sweaty palms?
5 AnswersSingles & Dating8 years agono college money, no place to live, now what?
So, to start, I'm an idiot. I had my whole future planned out. I was planning on going into the marines, but I have a drug problem. I was smoking pot (marijuana) off and on through high school even though I knew it was stupid. I gave it up for a month before I went through military entrance processing (MEPS) but that wasn't long enough, and I failed. I was stupid to think I could get away with breaking the law and not get in trouble. I don't deserve to serve this country and I know that I am pathetic. However, even pathetic people like me need to live somewhere, and when my parents found out that I failed meps they gave me a week to pack up and find another place to live so I have til wednesday to move out. I have no money for college and a minimum wage paying job. I'm an idiot and now I've screwed myself. What should I do? I want to eventually go to college and I need a place to live. Any assistance to this idiot would be greatly appreciated.

7 AnswersFamily9 years agoIs it normal to not have a desire to be dating or sexually active at 20?
I'm a 20 yr old male and I'm pretty good looking, but I really don't have a desire for a relationship or a sexual partner (i'm straight btw). I've had plenty of opportunities to have sex and pursue relationships with other people but I'm not actually interested. I get horny just like every other guy, but I feel I'm satisfied being alone and I don't have the strong typical desire for sex or a relationship with another person. I'm a virgin and my friends are always pressuring me to have sex or date but i don't really care- I've never cared. I'm not really a relational person and I've never really felt close to anyone even my family. Is this unusual and indicative of a problem?

1 AnswerHomework Help9 years agoWhat horror movie is this?
I can't remember the name of this movie. The plot involves the main character trying to save their son/daughter who is being held in a large building. It is not Insidious. The town in which all of this ensues is a small gothic looking town surrounded by a church. The community regularly goes to the church to pray to avoid being attacked by the demons. When the main character arrives with two other people, they visit the church. At the church, they beg for the town's help. The town adamantly refuses but offers to lead them to the building. They arrive at the building, and the town members try to kill the main characters. The main character escapes down the elevator and descends into the underworld to save his son/daughter. On his way, he encounters various traps such as blind mummies who wish to kill him. that's all I can remember. Can you tell me what movie I am talking about. It is from the 2000s, so its not that old.
