How can I get out of hospital if I've been admitted for anorexia?
I'm 15 years old and have been admitted in hospital for anorexia nervosa and all of the girls here are MUCH skinnier than me. This is probably because when I began my disorder, I was quite overweight and now I'm under and I've never been healthy. Now I'm in hospital for the second time because after discharge on the first time, my weight dropped back down again. I weighed 45 - 46kg when I was admitted and I am 165cm tall. Now I've gained weight, but I'm skinny fat and have no muscle and would like to get out of here and become lean but muscular again and these people are crazy with portions. Please don't tell me why I should stay but tell me how I can get out sooner because my life is being wasted here and I am sure I will eat a normal amount! Is there any legal rights me or my parents have??? I'm from Sydney, NSW, Australia by the way :)
4 AnswersDiet & Fitness5 years agoMy laptop randomly shut off and won't turn back on again and I have school TOMMOROW!!!!!!?
I've tried the take the battery out and hold for 30 seconds blah blah it won't work!!! I have a Lenovo G50 and the story goes that it got confiscated from me because I used it too much and it was put under this cabinet and there was a lot of dust there. So I opened it up unaware and turned it on and began using it but it was extremely slow and had very little battery so I put it on charge and after a while of me eating for google chrome to load the laptop just went blank. It didn't even show the shut down page it just turned off and all lights were off and I've even tried vacuuming dust out and getting everything out and it's still not working at all and I've had it for 1 year? Any suggestions on what may be wrong and how I can fix it? Do I need to go to a tech guy or something?
3 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks5 years agoAm I Overreacting To This Sexual Assault? Is it even a big deal?
I'm currently 14 but when I was 10 years old, I remember 2 of my mum's friends sons (who were in year 10 or something at the time) tickling me. It was all fun and games before the assholes decided to film themselves fingering me on my mum's phone and I don't know how they got a hold of her phone but I remember one of their hands over my mouth silencing my screams as I lay helplessly on the bed. I remember crying heaps that night, petrified because I didn't know how to delete the video back then and when my mum found it, both my parents pulled me out of my sleep and beat the crap out of me and blamed me for not telling them but how the **** are you supposed to tell strict ass indian parents who don't talk about that kind of stuff that I've been fingered when I'm 10 years old? I remember sitting in a room with those idiots and their mum and mine and I remember them telling us that it was wrong and I was the one who was beat up and yea those boys got in trouble but I don't know if I even deserved to be hit like that for something I had no control over. All they got was their mum telling them not to do it again and ever since then I've never really opened up to my mum and every time I call her a bad mother for various reasons like punching in my in my jaw till blood splattered all over the wall and stuff(she did clean it up though but still) she hit me for not doing homework. I WAS ******* 11 THEN. Am I overreacting as some of my friends and family say?
4 AnswersFamily5 years agoI need to get ride of the lice eggs in my hair in a week (ASAP) before my Keratin treatment at the salon! HELPPP!?
About a month ago, I found lice in my hair and as I was pretty uneducated about it, after I killed off the living lice, I tought my problem was solved but they came back... The reason was because when I first got lice, my mum did everything for me (I was 7) and now my mum is pissed off at me for getting them again (I m 14 now) and tells me that I need to keep my hair more clean (and she won t help) but I know that s not the case. I ve tried vinegar and conditioner combing and a medicine and I just need a heay duty plan to help me kill all the living lice ( think they re gone for now) and especially the nits!!! The nits are impossible but I need tips on what to do every single day for the next week to get rid of the eggs once and for all. I know it ll be hard work but as long as it gets the critters out of my hair forever, I ll do t because after my keratin treatment, using treatments and stuff may not work and also I won t be able to continue with the tkeratin treatment because salons don t operate on infested hair over here (Australia). PLZ HELP I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER and if your aswer is amazing, I ll give you points!
1 AnswerHair5 years agoOverprotective Indian parents!!!?
My parents have successfully educated me about school work's value and that 14 year olds - no boyfriends or unisex parties. Even though this is false. When I got my first period, I asked my mum why girls get periods. Obviously, I knew all that, but I wanted to hear my mum say it. I wanted to have an open relationship with her, but I just can't. We are 2 different books! She told me that the answer was irrelevant and only educated me on the religious and hygeinic aspects of getting your period. I see Indian kids sucked into school work and make themselves look parent appropriate all the time and I feel like just yelling at their faces. "YOUR AN INDIVIDUAL! NOT A MIRROR OF YOU PARENTS IN 1970 OR SOME ****!!!" My parents have picked up me wearing more 'exposive' clothes. They think that I'm turning into a filthy modern kid and that I'm trying to impress guys. For god's sake, I like feeling the wind on my arms! The only guys I am allowed to talk to are my family friends. Everytime my parents want to use my phone, I can't give it to them because they'd dissaprove of all my texts and all the screenshots I have on my phone. I'm a teenager. I don't just magically grow up and learn to love a man. I don't just magically grow up, get married and know how to have sex. Let me stalk my celebrity crushes and let me talk to and hang out with guys. I'm not always watching How To Train Your Dragon and I'm not always doing my homework. I wish they understood. Advice?
3 AnswersFamily6 years agoHow do I get my Indian parents to give me a break?
Okay, so I'm Indian and my parents have been pushing me too far. So I have trouble organising my locker and I usually struggle to get homework done prior to the day and I usually do it on the day.
They want to give me like 3 hours tution in Maths and they don't get that I HATE MATHS!!! I absolutely hate it and I don't want anything to do with it. I'm in advanced Maths and advanced English but that isn't enough for them and I'm freaking out (it might sound stupid but...) I'm going to grow up, be forced to become a doctor or an engineer (maths or science field) and I'm going to have to marry some guy who Is my culture and capable of taking care of me, by that, I mean another doctor or an engineer and my life is going to be like my parents. I don't want that, at all. I know I'm only turning 14 this year but I write books on a website called wattpad and I have millions of reads on it and that's what I want to do when I grow up. Write books, not be an engineer or a neurological surgeon! But of course, 'being a writer isn't a profession'. Being a writer is my dream!
I can't date a guy till I go to university which is pretty common with some parents but, I can't even hang with my guy friends! And I've known one of them since I was 2 years old and he's the sweetest bad boy in the whole world. He's like a fictional character. REALLY HOT, but sweet, cocky, funny, amazing and he asked me out last week and I like him too but my parents always get in my way :(
