  • Enmeshed mom/teen daughter - what can I do?

    My sister (psychologist) and I have been discussing my mother s enmeshment. She was abused herself, then became a single mom. Ive read all about enmesh meant, the signs, etc and it sounds just like her. I love her to death but I don t want to suffer the consequences any longer of taking on her emotions.

    Problem is, I m only 16. I ll only be living with her for the next three or so months, but I d like some coping strategies. Everytime I try to explain why what she s doing is hurting me in the long run, she ll yell at or punish me. She s in denial - bad.

  • Vegan with candida - hclf or hflc?

    I've been vegan for 3 years

    I went to a nutritionist, and got diagnosed with candida and leaky gut. My gut problems are pretty severe. I've had allergies, eczema, athsma since I was about 2 years old. I've been on every antibiotic/steroid you can name. Nutritionist recommended a low-carb, low-fruit, h.igh protein diet. The protein powder she put me on was Arbonne. (So I'm not allowed to eat bananas, but the protein powder has processed sugar in it??) I cancelled my order. Infuriated. I trusted this lady until I found out she was affiliated with this company, pumping me full of guar gum and processed crap.

    So I'm low carb for a day - wake up the next morning stuffy/runny nose, cough, throat pain, nauseous, fatigued, and angry. Very, very angry. I'm sitting here with my oil soaked vegetables in a VERY unhappy mood...lol.

    Has anyone here tried hflc or hclf for candida? Nutritionist said it should take 3-6 months. I can tell right now that that is NOT happening. Freelee of course advocates for her rawtil4, but I don't know whether or not to trust her and the other raw foodists. I crave fruit so much. If high fat is what it takes, I'll do it, but it really doesn't seem logical at all. Someone help please! Enlighten me! And if you eat low fat, how much fat do you eat?

    I will take each and every one of your responses into great consideration.

  • Transgenic organism project - humans drinking saltwater?

    I'm doing a school project where I need to make a transgenic organism.

    My choice was to make saltwater available for consumption in humans.

    My idea was to take a gene from a saltwater fish that excretes excess salt in its urine and transfer it into a human. I was reading this article: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC41802... , but since I don't have a degree in biotechnology, it was difficult to comprehend.. ha ha :).

    If anyone could provide some insight as to how I could go about doing this (what trait, which organs would be affected, which gene, which specific fish i should use) please answer!

    I'd love to hear your ideas - they would help a lot! :)

    Thanks so much and have a lovely day!!

  • Have trouble making words out? Please help!?

    My friends just told me I should get this checked out so naturally I went to strangers on the Internet...lol. when someone whispers to me, I hear noise but I can't make words out. I also have trouble understanding people who don't move their mouth much when they speak. I have a lot of trouble understanding people with accents, little kids, older people,etc. I use subtitles for tv shows and can't watch without them. I can't understand well when I take my contacts out (I can't see peoples' lips move). The thing is, I hear noise and sound, but I can't form the words. I've always been told I have good hearing, because I can pick up conversations even if they are far away, if I see their lips move. I have trouble making out lyrics in songs, too, and I don't know anyone else with this problem. Is this just nothing? Or should I get my hearing checked?

  • I'm not close with my family (14)?

    I'm 14 and I'm not that close with my family. Like I love them and all, it's just I'm not super comfortable with them. I'm kind of uptight around them - and I'm not that way with my friends/strangers. My mom is a worrier and has some anxiety and my sister gets angry/sad a lot for weird reasons. I can tell my sister knows we aren't that close bc she was crying about it (she's like 30) and telling me she wants to be closer. My friends tell their moms EVERYTHING and my mom told me I could tell her anything but I'm just not comfortable. I don't like dancing around her, it makes me feel weird. I don't like talking to other people in front of her because I just get super uncomfortable. I feel bad bc I could never imagine having a kid and not being super close with them but I'm just not comfortable! I still hug and kiss them it's just not that deep a connection. I don't like talking to them about feelings or any of that ; even though I talk about stuff like that a lot with my friends. Is this normal? Should I just leave it be? I don't want to seem cold but I just don't really feel the need to be super close with them! Thanks so much in advance!!

  • How to lose some fat? (Vegan already)?

    I've been a vegan for about 1 1/2 - 2 years now. I'm 14 and I'm 5'4 and I weigh between 115-120 lbs. My muscles are pretty toned since I work out but I still have some cellulite on my butt and some extra fat on my thighs, calves, arms, stomach, etc. I've started Freelee's rawtil4 lifestyle and I'm having some trouble (it's only day 3). I can't stomach ten bananas for breakfast, it's just not possible!! I would eat 1-2 bananas, 5 dates, 5 cherries and water in a smoothie. For lunch, I wouldn't really have a big actually meal, I kind of just snack on some fruits and veggies. (15 cherries and a cup of crushed tomatoes from a can) I'm having trouble with enjoying vegetables raw... Everything tastes better soft and cooked! At dinner, I'll pig out. I eat 2 pieces of corn on the cob, some sweet potato, tomato soup, rice/corn pasta with tomato sauce. I don't feel better on this diet at all, I actually feel the same or a little more sluggish. I find myself stuffing my face with food when I already feel full, just to attempt to meet Freelee's calorie requirements :(. Should I add some cooked food gradually? Or should I stick with this and maybe I will grow used to eating so much fruit? How else can I still feel okay and lose some weight? I already eat very, very healthy.

  • Stalker on social media... Is this enough to report to police?

    Someone has been stalking me on social media for almost a year now. At first, I would talk to them because I thought they were my age. They asked where I lived and my name etc. they have been making multiple accounts to try and follow my private account. Everytime I put something in my bio (that everyone can see, even non-followers), they ll use that same thing on their accounts. For example, I put a slogan for the presidential (U.S.) candidate I support and within an hour there was a fake profile of a supporter of them. They track my every move, and somehow have found people I know. Now they follow my friends, who are dumb enough to just let them. They now know my state, and where my friends go to school. I put (in my bio) that I lived somewhere else to trick them. I m afraid they re going to find me!! Is this enough to report??

  • Stalker on social media.. Help!?

    I have had a stalker for 1-2 years now. This person has asked me where I live and tried to follow me on every social media I have. "Person" keeps making fake accounts to try and follow me and even tries to follow my friends. They tag me in things, anything to get my attention. This person definitely does not have my best interest in mind. I don t want to delete all my social media because I like seeing how my friends from middle school grow up and change. I also want to keep in contact with them. Should I make new social media? I m afraid that if my friends try and follow me again (because he follows/stalks them), he will find the account.
