590280 tn?1310087366 i stay away from anyone or anyplace that is likely to be using, buying or selling. i try to stay close to people who are serious about recovery. i remember how bad it can get, and i haven't forgotten how to pray. oxycontin was my best friend to the tune of 600-800 mg a day as was alcohol. my best friend almost killed me and i saw it kill others, only after it took away their dreams, relationships and dignity and reduced them to empty shells of what they once were.
Avatar n tn I have had a toothache/facepain for over two weeks, I know I need to go and see a dentist but I have a great fear of going because of cetain circumstances that happened while going to the dentist as a child. I have been taking advil for the pain and most times it is tolerable but now it seems to be getting worse as it is keeping me awake at night.
Avatar f tn Talk this over with your parents so they can get you therapy to learn how to break free of this fear. Good luck and take care!
Avatar f tn To be honest, it makes me feel bad to hide this from my husband but if I have to get professional help, I will have to tell him. I would like to see how far I can go by managing this by myself before I think I am falling off the wagon again. Then maybe I do have to tell him. I would like to tell you that I am very appreciative of your response. It is not everyday that I get to talk about this with someone.
Avatar n tn I have had my period for awhile now. I'm only 13 and I have been wanting to use a tampon so I can go swimming during my period this summer. I don't know how to ask my mom for help and I have tried to put a tampon in before but everytime I freak out and just throw it away. What do I do to help? How do I ask my mom for help?

Avatar m tn I am afraid I stepped on a syringe(iI know you are thinking this is crazy but yea damn OCD) I know this fear is ocd but I am trying to think of facts to confront this fear with,it worked with fear of HIV and oral sex.
Avatar f tn I would looooveeeeee to go swimming but I'm afraid I'll have contractions as well.
1664673 tn?1303042173 I remember how excited I was on my first day at law school, and I remember the agony of how long I had to wait to see if I passed the bar. That was a walk in the park compared as to what I am going through now. Everyone on this site says that thing will get better and I believe them and I believe in myself. I believe in you and I think that you believe in yourself as well so please what ever you do stay on the straight and narrow and things will have a way of working themselves out.
Avatar m tn Agreed. But some of these fears can be overcome. Puppies and chicks tend to be fast moving. Find the right kind of puppy at a pound or store, and I bet his response will be different.
Avatar f tn How cold do you really think a hotel swimming pool is? Swimming while pregnant is recommended because it helps a lot with aches and pains and is good for stretching out muscles. Hotels have a temperature they maintain. Anything colder would obviously be too cold for most people to swim in and shouldn't be swam in anyway, so no, swimming in a hotel pool will not cause premature labour, and if you're so worried then don't go.
Avatar f tn I think in your rational mind you fully understand that these Anxieties and fear you have are silly, BUT I can absolutly understand that in your mind they seems very serious and real. For example, you and I both know that the odds of getting a brain eating amoeba that is found in fresh warm water by swimming in a pool is obsurd. Regardless, to you this fear is very real. That's the funny thing about any and all mental illnesses.
Avatar f tn THESE ARE ATTACK ON THE MIND..JUST TRY AND BRUST THEM OFF..........IT IS POSSIBLE, BUT FIRST LEARN HOW NOT TO CARE, AND HOW NOT TO BE SO LOVING TO FALSE IDLES. i KNOW, THAT'S THE TOTAL OPOSITE OF WHAT WE WERE TAUGHT, BUT WHO SAYS THAT WE WERE TAUGHT CORRECTLY...RESPECT HUMANS, BUT ONLY LOVE GOD; WHEN GOD GETS JELOUS HE'S GONNA TAKE IT OUT ON YOU. NO FALSE IDLES!!!!!!!
1700380 tn?1308585783 Exceeded the character limit....Continued.... So after the talk, she wanted to have sex, and I DID TOO, at least in my mind I did. When we were in the living room on the couch, just her mentioning it (And I think her looking excited about it) had me very ready. She stopped in the hall bathroom to change into some lingerie and said she'd meet me in the bedroom. I had a perfectly healthy and normal erection at this point, and was quite ready to get after it.
Avatar f tn My advice would be to gradually start exposing yourself to that fear. For instance just swimming a very short distance the first day (then monitoring how you feel) then gradually build it up from there. I think they call it exposure therapy or something. Please don't avoid swimming altogether as you will feed that fear to such an extent that you will feel anxious anytime you go near the water.
Avatar m tn I am doing all body muscles workouts at home (sometimes intense workout) including abdominal workouts. I want to start swimming for a while and i want to know what are the benefits of swimming, and what will my muscles and abs benefit from it.
Avatar m tn I have no idea how to help you overcome your apparently severe ticklishness, perhaps therapy would offer some useful insight. I don't know how often you are approached by people wielding a "vibration device," but I would try yelling, in a very loud and forceful tone of voice "NO!" Or "STOP! I DO NOT LIKE THAT!
Avatar f tn Chronic anxiety, social phobias, post-traumatic stress syndrome, etc. are normal parts of the day-to-day life, and it is necessary to learn how to get rid of them rather than living with them. It's normal to get anxious before addressing a group of people or stress out before your first meeting with a new client.
Avatar f tn I mean I can masturbate to them without a problem, but as soon as I’m done all the doubt just starts to set in again. I’m trying, I swear to go I’m trying to just calm myself and not react to anything but it feels helpless. There are more important things going on in the world right now it seems unfair that being gay is all I think about. Please, if you have any advice I’ll be glad to listen.
Avatar m tn You think about who you could contact to go with you to these treatments, how you get there, how you get back. how you would tell your boss and who could step in to do the work at your job while you are absent. The steps you would take sequentially to arrange your private affairs. Steps you would take to do something you had always wanted to do but have never got around to. Think about what you would do if the treatment worked--what special things might you do to celebrate.
