I m at a loss for what to do with myself and my grief?
This summer has been a tough one for myself and my family. Just 2 months before I was scheduled to transfer to a new school 2 hours away from home in an unfamiliar city my dad took his life while I was at home and I ve been struggling with this ever since. It s now been 5 months and I ve gotten past most of the what if s and I see a therapist through the school now but I have never felt so alone and empty in my life. My mom has been completely out of it and non cognitive, not my mom anymore. we re selling the house I ve lived in my entire life. There s just so many changes and I feel so broken. I m struggling so much with school I constantly feel overwhelmed going through all of this, I don t sleep well and I cry at the drop of a pin. I get these bad grades and I ve never been a bad student so I m just so extremely stressed. I ve had no motivation to do anything let alone time to heal for myself. When I think about where I ll be in 5 years, I can t think of anything and I m just at such a loss right now about where I go from here I just feel so broken and alone in every way. I have support but it never feels enough I want to throw every responsibility out the window and take a vacation. If anyone has any good motivation/advice I d love to hear it. Thank you
1 AnswerPsychology2 years agoIs this a stomach bug?
Yesterday afternoon I started experiencing severe back pains that made me so nauseous I literally wanted to curl up and die lol. I took a 2 hour nap and still felt sick when I woke up so I’d figure I’d eat maybe I was just hungry? All I ate was toast and that seemed to make it worse, at that point my stomach felt like it was doing flips I could barely walk without feeling like I had to vomit but since I had to go to work my mom gave me an anti nausea pill which helped completely, I was no longer nauseous however as soon as I parked in the lot to go into work I literally just sh*t my pants!! (Got it taken care of) after work I had to run some errands and although I wasn’t nauseous anymore I sh*t my pants while driving!! AGAIN!!? Woke up this morning feeling fine so I went to the gym and was fine all thru my workout and then I used a tanning booth, only made it to 5/8 minutes I had to get out because it was so hot I thought I was going to puke everywhere. Took my temp and no fever? I can’t be pregnant so I’m just wondering if anyone knows what this is or has any advice, thank you.
1 AnswerOther - Health3 years agoFirst apartment, how would rent work in this situation?
So i’m moving to philadelphia soon to move into my first apartment with 2 other people, it’s a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom and rent divided between the 3 of us would equally be $700.

Like lease with and stuff idk how this stuff works. 2. given that we’d share a bedroom would him and i split the $700 or would total rent be divided up between 4 people instead of 3. anyone with landlord or apartment experience please let me know your opinions thank you
9 AnswersRenting & Real Estate3 years agois it even possible for me to be pregnant right now?
so ive been on the depo probera shot for a little over 2 years now with no problems, today is saturday and on wednesday night at like 2am my boyfriend accidentally finished inside of me which NEVER happens. Thursday afternoon i was scheduled for my next shot so i asked my dr while i was there if i would need to take plan b just in case and she said no i’ll be fine because there’s a 5 day window which i guess means they schedule your next shot before it completely runs out. so she assured me that i’m protected and even said once off of depo that i normally takes up to a year to get pregnant. however, i just went to the bathroom and noticed light brown discharge...i’m a little nervous so if anyone can give me some insight i’d appreciate it thank you

1 AnswerPregnancy3 years agoMy life is so awful right now what do I even do?
So this friday my parents were out of town and I've had friends over in the past with them gone and knowing, so same deal. (i'm 19 btw) Just my friend group which is like 11 people. Obviously we were drinking and hanging out but thanks to snap chat these kids showed up (not that we don't like them but it wasn't that kind of party) they immediately came drunk and started raging and purposely breaking and stealing stuff, we got them out in like an hour. I thought I cleaned pretty well but when my parents came home they started noticing stuff was missing and just what I didn't notice and it was BAD. My dad was balling his eyes out and screaming. The neighbor screamed at my dad because of how people parked their cars. They told me I'm not welcome to eat their food anymore because they don't want anything else stolen so I literally haven't eaten since friday night and I'm starting to get a headache. Every picture of me in the house has been taken down. I don;t even know what to do or how to make this better.
5 AnswersFriends4 years agoWhat should I talk to my therapist about it's my first time?
Im 19 and my moms scheduled my first therapy appointment for Friday & I keeping thinking about what will happen when I get there..I don't even know what to talk about. Reason why I'm going is because my parents picked me up from somewhere drunk & I went into this rage at them about how unhappy I am with my life I hate what I'm doing in school, I blamed my mom for my depression saying she kept me from seeing my grandmother as a kid because they stopped talking over dumb drama & that always sticks with me. I guess I was saying how I wanted to kill myself & stuff (I've felt this deep down since I was like 14 but never showed signs I've always just been very sad & really for a reason I can't pinpoint myself), transition from HS to college was hard for me I lost a lot of friends. This isn't the first time Ive been through this with my parents before either like them seeing me drunk I won't lie I like to party a lot & drink but I don't think it's deep rooted at all I purely just enjoy the crazy social environment. I guess my biggest problem now is the stress & the pressure to succeed I hate my major & I struggle but that's what will make me money however what I enjoy isn't what will make me money and I even feel at time that I don't even want to be in school I feel like I can do so much more and learn so much more by traveling but it's just the pressure to do whats best for my future and it kills me. Not sure if all of this is worth seeing a therapist over so idk what to talk about

3 AnswersMental Health4 years agoWhats up with my skin it hates me!! HELP?
I've always had oily skin, really bad in the summer and subtle in the winter but never ever dry. This winter is different because for the past 2 months I tough my face and its just really rough and feels scaly. Looking at it, theres flakey/peeling skin all over my face! I'm super into beauty and into DIY stuff I probably have every best selling product, been through it all because I had issue with my skin when I was younger (19 now). Anyway I used to wear makeup every day but I've stopped a few months ago and go bare faced almost every day so Idk why I'm having these problems and no matter how much I exfoliate(once a week) or moisteurize(like 5 times a day because it's that bad) nothing seems to help, what can I do?

2 AnswersMathematics4 years agoWhy am I ALWAYS tired?
It s actually interfering with my life so much I ve been like this for YEARS and I m 19 at first my doctor told my mom it was just early hormones and then when nothing changed I was tested for anemia (my mom has it) and it came back negative. I get about 6.5-9 hours of sleep a night depending on the day and no matter how much sleep I get I have such a difficult time moving to get up out of bed and go to class and even after classes I come home and will take a 1-2 hr nap wake up eat go to the gym do something and come home and nap again wake up do hw or something for an hour and go to bed. I don t want to be like this to nap all day but the feeling of exhaustion is constant and overwhelming. What is wrong with me? Side note: I eat extremely healthy and take adequate vitamins everyday.
2 AnswersOther - General Health Care4 years agoPeriod stopped after sex?
So I m on Depo, I get it every 3 months it s a very strong birth control. I stopped getting my period in July from it but last night out of no where I had some bleeding which caught me off guard but I was like whatever I ll put in a tampon. Then I went over my ex boyfriends house to hang (we re still friends same friend group and all) and idk we started hooking up and I went to the bathroom to take out my tampon bc I really just wanted to and there was blood on it still. Then we hooked up and he finished quick and said he pulled out I kept asking him to make sure and he said he did. I m hoping he did. But anyway I don t have my period today so why is that? Did the sex stop the cycle or something?
1 AnswerWomen's Health4 years agoUnderage party busted but I was allowed to leave HELP what will happen?
I got caught at an underage party, I m 18 but two people who I came with are of age and the none of us blew 0s. We were drinking obviously but cooperative and the cop who I asked what kind of citation I m getting said "nothing as long as everyone calms down". We were the only cooperative ones and there were drugs in the house which is what everyone was freaking out about and the cops were more concerned with, however they let me and my friends walk home instead of drive and kept everyone else there. Legally speaking I m just wondering if they can cite me because more than anything I m more concerned about recieveing a citation in the mail and having my parents see it more than anything. Also even though everyone there was like 18/19 they required parents or guardians to pick them up but they let me walk home with my two drunk friends who are both 21 and 22 so idk if that makes a difference. Please give me some insight on what you think might happen thank you

4 AnswersLaw & Ethics5 years agoPink blood when I wiped this morning?
My boyfriend and I had sex last night, he's the first guy I've ever felt comfortable enough with to not use a condom so we don't usually and he always pulls out and finishes on top of me like I see it with my own eyes but I know there's always a chance, I would use a condom if I wasn't on BC I get the depo shot every 3 months and my doctors raves about how effective it is compared to the pill however she tells me to use a condom all the time just for the sake that I'm only 18 and stds can spread. I'm pretty confident he has been faithful though I have no suspicions or reason to think otherwise. When I got home from his house this morning I wiped and saw very light pink blood, with my ex this would happen to me a lot because I think he was just bigger than average but I'm a little worried can someone give me some insight? We've been together for about 2 months and having sex like 1-2 times for a week for the past month

1 AnswerHair5 years agoIs spot reduction possible?
For starters I'm 18 I weigh anywhere between 114-118lbs and I'm about 5'3", my issue is I've always been super self conscious about the lower half of my body. My bust is 32c and my waist is 27inches and I like my size however my hips are 29inches and then there's my butt and my wonderful thighs, measuring from the fullest part of my butt around is 39/40inches and my thighs are like 21/22inches. I HATE IT. I feel so self conscious in clothes because my thighs look bigger than everything else and my butt just sticks out all the time and I work out moderately but I don't want to do anything to build the muscle in those areas, what can I do to slim down
