she still living with her parents huh? I mean 16... well, she's going to destroy her whole life and her parents' cause they'll have to pay for treatments. Then she's gonna have to do it all her life and change the duapers when her "baby" is 50 years old, if he makes it. well that applies to babies who are born almost vegetables, who sit in a wheel chair with a computer that talks for them. Did you see people like that? Do you look at them funny? YES. So tell her that. Does she want life like that? btw. there is nothing worse than a moment when the baby is born and looks horrible. You know what I mean? I'm sorry but she's being stupid I just can't imagine what kind of person would do it ti their child. I have a 3 month old sister who is on the very top health/growth/weigth chart. I cannot imagine a life with a sick baby...

noone ever told me that

heh. high school's ok. Junior year was the best and most fun! Now, senior year doesn't seem so good. I get so much homework!!!!! ANd I hate math, Im taking trigonometry and can't get it! I think I should drop it! But it can only get me a standard diploma if I do it

I think she needs to exersise. It boosts your self esteem and getd rig of bad mood.

good work. you helped a lot.

Ok I posted a topic about acne before. I was happy for a while cause I got a tan and my acne seemed better and not as noticeable (I'm ver very white and hate it) Anyway, I've been on Retin-A for two months and stopped using it about 2-3 weeks ago..but I still have some side effects. For example, before Retin-A my forehead had a few blackheads but you couldn't even see them. Now the acne are not big but not small either. They are deep under the skin and really noticeable in the sun and in bad lighning. I also have a spot on every cheek that just always gets huge (well not huge but really big blemishes). And also my nose-I only had blackheads all over it but now in some places blackheads started turning onto small red acne. Well I have an appointment with a dermatologist on September 8 and I really want her do out me on Accutane cause if she gives me more cream treatment stuff, I'm just gonna get up and walk away. She already destroyed my skin. I've read on Kaiser Permanente (my health insurance) web site that you can get accutaine if -It's causing emotional pain and depression (I cry sometimes and today also because of it, but I always have depression and just lock myself in the house. I'd rather have depression from Accunate than from acne) -If yor family member has acne scars (now my mom doesnt have acne scars but has enlarged pores. Dunno about dad, never seen him) -If it didn;t get better over several months of medical treatment (Ok it didn't!!!) So um..how bad does acne have to be? I don't want tp try any creams cause I feel like if I do, them my skin's gonna age sooner than it's supposed to. My skin is tired of these stuff... again, sorry for posting so often but I jsut have to talk to someone but my mom hates discussing treatments and my acne

I like boiled water. Yeah boiled and cooled..it tastes kind of sweet even. From other water I feel like I'm gonna......you know what

hey thanks. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one. Everywhere people are like "oh I hang out with my friends".

you're lucky your face cleared up. I've had acne since 5th grade and now going to be a senior and it's not showing any signs of healing. I feel the same way as you did. Well sorry that I can't help you with this but I just had to say it

This is kind of embarrasing but.. is it normal to not to like to hang out with people? I don't like it. I like being at home alone. I wasn't always like this but it changed when I moved to this country. I had to learn new language and couldn't hag out with people. When I could finally speak and understand, I found that I got used to being alone. Now I just try to find any excuses not to go anywhere. watsup? am I normal?

wow. How big do you want it? I don't have big but I don't have small either...and guess what? Finding pants that look good on you and don't fall from your butt even if it's your size, is like finding...well what should I compare it to? well you know what I mean. Last time I found good jeans was a year ago....yeah .. so don't get a bigger butt!

I don't think you have anything to worry about. My mom's 38 and it has been 17 years since she was pregnant. So it was like a first time. Well anyway, my newborn sister is VERY healthy. My mom's friend had a baby when she was 40 of even more, and the girl was healthy too. My friend's mom had her at 40 well anyway, 35 is not old. It's just the first year when you are considered at high risk. but if you were say 33, then you wouldn't be at high risk? what could two years possibly do? so don't worry about it. if you were "meant" to have an unhealthy baby, it could happen in your 20-s too. --sorry for no caps, my keyboard's scrwed up, don't want to sound bad---

yeah my skin's really dry now and I think that's why my skin looks os bad now. Cause you know when your skin gets too dry, it produces more oil and clogges pores and blah blah blah... I don't see how Retin-A could work at all, it's more for wrinkles or scars. I don't think it can stop new zits from forming. It's so annoying! So thanks, I will make another appointment. You know what's crazy? She tried two mild Retin-A before! And it never worked.

Hi everyone! I went to a dermatologist on approximately june 10. School ends on June 17. She gave me Retin-A GEL Micro (0.1%), which was the storngest one they had. I knew that it makes your skin look really bad after a few weeks or a month of usage so I started using it right then on June 10, hoping that by the time school starts on September 7, my skin on my face's gonna be as clear as on my arms. So now it's almost two months and I don't see any improvements or even worsenings. (well maybe just a little, but my skin looked like this sometimes when I didn't do anything to it too) So my doctor told me to try it for a solid 2-3 months. If nothing happens then return. So now it's two months. Should I wait until it's three months and go to school looking ugly as (H word)? Or should I make another appointment now? It's gonna my senior year man! I'm sick of this!

my mom is not the type to whom you can talk to. I dunno, she doesn't listen.

I'm 17. My mom just had a baby and I'm very happy for her and I love them both and all. But my mom yells at me without a reason like once or twice a week, talks to me like I did something bad when all I wanted was just to talk to her. Just now I walked into her room to check on her and the baby but she was rude. Then I asked something about my baby sister because she spitted up 3 times today. She statred yelling like "damn it she's fine!!" Ok, I don't know know babies. I know that they spit up but she's never done it this often (2 weeks old). So I was worried! And she was so rude to me like I'm supposed to know it all. She's never going to admit that she's at fault. Tomorrow she's just gonna start talking to me like nothing had ever happened. But I'm sick of this! I'm a person too! I never talk back to her, just try to be polite and want to stop her from talking to me like that. Sometimes when I ask questions like "when is my sister going to start smiling, walking, etc..." she just gives me an eye roll as of she was some jerkish girl in school that hates me! What's going on? I can't handle it anymore! I cry all the time!

Thanks all

thanks. But I'm still worried, I mean..she's barely 24 hours old! Her immune system must not be working as well yet or something, right? I wouldnt be this worried if she was two weeks old!

I'm so scared. Today I went to visit my baby sister who was born TODAY! Like LAST NIGHT!!!! Now that I'm back home I found out that I'm getting sick, like my nose is running but I dont have temperature...yet.... I held my sister and of course I breathed on her and now I'm scared that she can catch my cold! I dont know what's gonna happed! I'm afraid to talk to anyone about it, I dont want to make my mom worried. Please tell me if a cold is not going to do anything serious to a baby? Is she deffinetely going to catch it?? I cant get this off my mind! Thank you
