i hate something and i dont know why?
this is dumb but im having a panic attack over it. i found out my friend lied to me and is smoking weed again and yes, i know, weed is not bad, and its natural. but i have a bad past concerning alcohol and drugs. it makes me so uncomfortable to the ppint that i shake and cry. i dont know what to do. i would never ask my friend to stop doing something they enjoy unless i knew for sure it was harming them. so i want to know how i can cope easier with something like this. it's so incredibly stupid and i know that but i can't stop how it initially makes me feel, i can only try and grow and cope. i just need help. i think it isn't weed that scares me, it's just the fact that drugs change people. and eventually, weed stops having an effect on some people, and they turn to other, harder drugs. and that scares me. what do i do?
3 AnswersMental Health4 weeks agoWhy do I feel this way? It's debilitating.?
Lately I've felt nothing but paranoia and worry for my mom. It's random because my mom is fine. And, my best friend is staying with me for about 2 months but lately I just want to be alone. I can't do that to her, she's already here, so I'm trying to have as much fun as possible because usually i love having her around but when shes asleep and im awake, i want to cry. also lately i've been unable to sleep right. i went to sleep around 3:30 am yesterday and woke up at 7:34 am still tired as heck but i couldnt go back to sleep. at 10am i finally tried to force myself to sleep and i went into this limbo between awakeness and sleep u ril 12pm when my sister woke me up from it and i had a horrible headache and was so tired. so, we go pick up my friend and then around 11pm i go to sleep. here i am awake at 3:30 am, only having gotten about 4 hrs of sleep, wide awake, feeling like i want to cry and i dont know why. just recently i found out that i was emotionally abused by my father my entire life (my parents are divorced, i live with my mom) and so i guess that could be why im stuck under a gigantic rain cloud but idk. im not used to feeling this way. i was diagnosed with depression a long time ago, and ive been through a lot with depression, but i just want to know: why am i so paranoid abt the well being of my mom randomly (it only happens when i have bad anxiety?) and what can i do to make sure i really feel happy like usual while my friend is here?

4 AnswersDiet & Fitness1 year agoRapid weight gain, HELP?
I'm 17 year old girl at 5'4. Most of my teenage years I've weighed around 115-120 pounds. How I eat has not changed and nothing about my life really has changed–I'd say my diet has improved slightly. But recently, in the past few months, I've gained 10 pounds. I weigh 131 pounds as of today and I do not know where this weight has come from in the slightest. I'm so scared and I don't want to gain weight, I was so happy where I was. I need to get rid of this random weight FAST. I don't want to be a teenager and have to already start on a diet and exercise routine that a 50 year old does. I just want to live my life!!!!! Help?

6 AnswersReligion & Spirituality3 years agoWhat does my dream mean?
This is a recurring dream. I often dream that I’m running through a forest (sometimes from different directions). It feels like someone’s chasing me, but no one is really there. I always slow down and stop near a shot deer. It’s looking at me with its head up. It isn’t dead for some reason. I crouch down and pet it. I always wake up soon after that?? Sometimes I dream from the perspective of the deer (I guess?)

1 AnswerInfectious Diseases3 years agoselfharm cuts.. help?
so i selfharmed the night before using one blade from scissors. theyre really minor cuts and look like cat scratches. theyre still sore but not inflamed. i dont have antibiotic ointment, but ive washed my wrist. considering they look like non-deep surface cat scratches, how long do u guess it would take for the redness to go away and for them to just be brown scabs? i am desperate to know because after i had done it my mom said that if she found out im cutting again, she would make me live with my dad
2 AnswersOther - Skin & Body3 years agoleft arm pain?
this isn't constant, it's actually every few months or so i sometimes get a sharp, throbbing pain in my left arm (its happened in my right arm as well). google scares me and makes me think im going to have a heart attack, but i don't think that's probable because i'm 15, i weigh 120 pounds and i am 5'5". i don't really eat all that unhealthy i like to think i eat similar to a lot of kids my age. what might the problem be?

1 AnswerWomen's Health4 years agoIS SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME?
I'm 15 as of Monday, and I'm a girl. I'm 5'3 and the last time I weighed myself I weighed 121 pounds (I had gained 2 pounds.) I don't eat a lot, and I don't eat that unhealthily. Recently I've noticed rapid weight gain, even in my arms and fingers. My parents don't see anything and think I'm nuts. I'm so worried about my weight that it's all I ever think about now, I couldn't stop if I wanted to. I can't eat without thinking about it. Of course I plan on doing something to lose the weight, but this is starting to worry me.
3 AnswersDiet & Fitness4 years agoWhat's wrong with me?
I'm 14 I'm 5'3 and I weigh 119 pounds and I'm not sure why but I've been extra concerned about my weight. I feel like the only place im gaining weight is in my arms and gaining weight is the scariest thing to me. What could I do if I really am gaining unwanted excess weight? I don't overeat and I would say I eat moderately when it comes to food choices. I don't understand why I would be gaining weight when I don't binge, I barely snack, and sometimes I don't even eat lunch (that's not healthy, but it keeps me from getting sleepy in my last class, and I'm afraid school lunch will make me gain weight like crazy). My family tells me I'm just growing and that I'm not fat, and I'm wondering if I really am gaining weight or I am just extremely self conscious. It's beginning to bother me because I can't walk past a mirror without examining myself and squeezing at parts I don't like. I'm beginning to not be able to eat the things I want because I'll despise myself for it afterwards. What's wrong with me? Will this go away?

2 AnswersCancer5 years agoWhy do I feel this way?
Everytime my parents yell at me or I get in trouble, no matter what it is, afterwards I always feel uncomfortable and want to crawl into a corner of shame. What is that? My mom recently just yelled at me for something I really don't think is my fault, but even if though I feel that way, I still feel shameful. Also, I feel uncomfortable doing anything I want to do like draw after getting yelled at. Like, I don't know why that is. Is there any way I can control it, as well?
2 AnswersPsychology5 years agoReverse racism?
What's with all of these people saying that reverse racism isn't real? What is reverse racism? It's just racism, racism entails discrimination against a race. You can be racist to any race. So, my question is, what's the deal with this 'reverse racism' thing?
