Question 1

has anyone read the happiness trap by dr russ harris and would it help for bi-polar?

Accepted Answer

Defuse: His books are excellent in regards to acceptance and as well changing your stance towards your attitude and thoughts.  Freeing your self up from the entanglement of unfortunately chosen and reified thoughts and metaphors can benefit anyone.  The trap can be believing that happiness should be readily and consistently obtainable.  Many do not know how to or are deeply disappointed at transience.

Question 5

i have been gettin horrid thoughts an been quite nasty to my husband last night i slapped him?

Accepted Answer

Feel out of control?: Thoughts like you are having are terribly uncomfortable. Perhaps you wonder if you would carry these beyond a slap - not to imply that a slap is ok. Whenever you are having thoughts about harming someone - including yourself, it's time to get some professional help. Talk to your doctor. They can evaluate you/refer for counseling. Do not hesitate to call 911 if things are moving out of control!

Question 6

give me some madican from harnia ?

Accepted Answer

No: Hernia is not treated with medicine.  It is treated with surgery.

Question 7

i have horrid stretch marks everywhere and i'm only 16. please help?

Accepted Answer

Confused?: Your profile says you are 44.  It is much more common for teenagers to get stretch marks. The layer of skin called the dermis looses elastin and collagen when there is a rapid accumulation of fat in the breasts, upper arms , thighs, abdomen, due to hormones. Weight gain, pregnancy, or other stressors on the skin where you accumulate fat.  The dermis tears and it causes discoloration to the skin.

Question 8

what to do if i do not know if i'm being sexually harassed by my guy friends that i live with?

Accepted Answer

Pow Wow time: I would have a serious talk with them and let them know that it bothers you. If they are willing to work on  the behaviors that is great. If it is upsetting you and they aren't willing to address it - then finding new roommates is an option.

Question 9

how do i get kid brother to leave me alone? he puts cameras in my room and harasses my boyfriends.

Accepted Answer

Not okay: You should remind him to not do things to you that he wouldnt want done to him.  You should voice your concerns to your parents to help you out.

Question 10

No: Someday stem cell will heal it but for now surgery is it. It's pretty easy to get it fixed now they use a scope.
