A question about depression and the drugs used to treat it?
So i have suffered from depression for awhile, i would say it maybe started around the age of 13 and I’m 19 now. I was put on medicine- anti depressants- aged 16. Nothing has seemed to work. I’ve been on off with the anti depressants since then and I’ve tried Fluxotine (prozac) Citalopram and the one I’m currently on- Sertraline. I’ve also been on Diazepam (Valium) but was taken off of it, because they did not want me on it for an extended amount of time. I have also had councilling but really did not find it useful, so after a period of time stopped. Lately I’ve been really down, and my tablets have not helped me at all. I’m not really sure what to do, or if there is even anything I can do. If I go back to the doctors, I don’t think there will be anything he can give me- or will give me. I kn ow he wont put me on Diazepam again, which seemed to help the most as it relaxed me and gave me a break from my mind. Any suggestions? is there anything that you have been put on/ know about that was effective? If so what? and what are my options?
this depression is ruining my life, i have no will power to do anything, im becoming withdrawn, rarely going out and I’m losing my friendships. . I constantly feel sad, or worried and feel alone.
How & Why do Woman Synchronize their Periods?
Why is it when woman congregate in a group for an extended amount of time that thier periods tend to synchronize to eachother?….. but the better question is how does it happen? Does all the other womans menstrual cycles in line with one particular womans cycle ( like the more dominate cycle ) or do all the womans period merge into a gradual common middle sync point?
Is it chemical horomonal pheromones that are given off between the woman going back and forth and align/sync. eachothers bio-clock to eachother?
Can one pheromone be more dominate than others and thus making all the other woman align with her cycle? or do they all gradually meet in the common middle ground?
Whats up with the HCG diet?
So… I made a status of mine on facebook stating that I wanted to lose weight & that I was in search of some diet/exercise partners to follow a 6wk plan with me.
I received a comment from my cousin (that I hardly ever talk to or see) & she began to tell me that her & a friend of hers is doing a 6wk program themselves and she called it the HCG Organic diet.
Now never before this have I ever even heard of this diet until she told me.
She told me that she has done this diet before & lost 40lbs in 6wks.
After searching this diet & reading reviews on it I must say that I am still a skeptic.
The diet consist of HCG injections or taking drops daily in addition to a 500 calorie a day organic diet & you don’t have to exercise.
For the record… HCG stands for Human Chorionic Gonadotropins: The major hormone secreted by the placenta. In the early stages of pregnancy.
As I have told her… It sounds like a starvation diet to me & I am very awear of the starvation diet & the consequences because I’ve did this diet for 15 days before & I lost 25lbs in that short amount of time then after the 15 days I began to slowly introduce foods back to my body but the end result was that my tummy seemed to be the place on me where it began to store fat for it didn’t know if it would ever be starved again.
I ended up gaining all of that weight back plus more.
I explained this to my cousin & she stated & I quote… After you complete the 6 weeks you continue to eat the organic foods for another 6 weeks and you slowly introduce other foods back into your diet. If you jump back into eating regular foods after the 6 weeks of course you will gain the weight back. You are (in simple form) resetting your metabolism in the 2nd six weeks to keep the weight off.
So I said to her… So is the diet actually a 12wk program? Tell me cuz? Are you hungry on this diet? Do you get dizzy? & why do a diet that would make you have to reset your metabolism afterwards just as you would need to do after a starvation diet? Im sorry but it’s pretty much sounding like a starvation diet to me except you get 500 calories more than you actually would on a starvation diet. Why not just do a organic diet, not combining it with the HCG injections that you are doing because there is no scientific evidence that the HCG even helps with the weight loss process & instead just exercise?
She says… When you eat a low calorie diet without the hcg you lose structural fat instead of the abnormal fat and your body needs the structural fat.
Yet I read a review that stated that this is not true & although this person did lose an excessive amount of weight he also lost muscle. & in his exact words he says… In my opinion, the HCG Diet is just like any other starvation diet out there today, as far as end results. Only 59% of my weight loss was actual fat. Included in that fat loss was a drop in my visceral fat– this is needed structural fat, the kind that HCG is supposed to prevent. I am here to tell you that it most certainly DID NOT protect me from losing vital fat. And it certainly didn’t protect me from losing vital muscle.
Also I read where some of the sellers are not selling you exactly what you think you are buying. The HCG is not cheap & you could be getting scammed. Wouldn’t it upset you if you found out after you spent hundreds of dollars that it really wasn’t HCG in the bottle & it was something else like maybe saline???
So of course I’d love to lose 40lbs in 6wks but I am asking all that has done this diet & it has been well over 12wks since to give me your review on it because as I said I am still skeptical???
Is it possible for a woman to develop type 1 herpes through non sexual contact?
I have been seeing a woman for a year now we started having sex right away, after about six months she was found to have type 1 herpes (very small outbreaks), I was tested and my results were negative, she swears she has not been with anyone else since she started dating me. Is it possible that the virus can lay dormant for a specific amount of time then outbreaks occur, or am I just a fool to believe her?
What exercises should I do for a slim body shape?
I’m sixteen and quite slim already (my BMI is about 18.5) so I don’t want to lose any weight. My body just lacks definition, so I want to work it without adding muscle bulk. I would like to be slim and toned, without that ‘I work out 24/7′ look. I don’t have a major amount of time either (GCSEs and everything).
Any suggestions would be great, thank you!
I have a muscular body shape and want to look more feminine (shape wise) How?
So I do a lot of sports e.g. swimming, P.E, basket ball, running, cross-country etc. I have a more muscular body shape e.g. chunky arms, muscular legs etc.
I want to be slim and more feminine like Vanessa Hudgens with the slim arms curvy hips, flat tummy etc.
How can I do this in a short amount of time (2 weeks)?
thanks
