Hi everyone and happy New years, I will try to keep it simple, I am 23 I live in NYC and I have an ok Job but I don’t want to live my life paycheck to paycheck. I did not do great in high school I dropped out and ended up a diploma afterwards.

I tried courses like billing and coding and medical assistant but ended up getting scam by the school and in debt with Sallie mae and not pursuing those things.

Question by E: Why are people acting like my miscarriage is no big deal?
I miscarried at 9 weeks only a day ago.(the miscarriage started 3 days ago). Physically, it was horribly painful and I was in the ER for complications. Emotionally, it’s been crushing.

My family and friends don’t seem to care. My mother actually asked me if it was because I ran (I’m a distance runner). I’ve had others tell me it was for the best, a good thing that it hapened early so I didn’t get too attached, and at least it wasn’t a real baby yet. And those are just from the 3 people who called. Everyone else seems to be avoiding me and acting like I should just get other it. A lot of people knew about this as the miscarriage started at a large family gathering.

The best “therapy” my daughter has had has been me taking her EVERYWHERE with me, constantly teaching her, exposing her to new things, changing up her routines.

Question by MMD: Can I join the Navy if…?
Can I join the Navy if…..?
I attempted suicide at 16 years old and was admitted into a “behavioral health” hospital (it was a locked psych hospital called Foundations Behavioral Health Hospital”) and was an out-patient at Horsham Clinic. I am on Lexapro as an anti-depressant and Concerta for ADHD. It is possible I am bi-polar (not yet diagnosed, in the process of talking to therapist and psychiatrist. My moms twin brother was bi-polar.) PLEASE let me know if there is anyway I can ‘block’ this or have it not show up in background checks. Is it possible I can still join the Navy/get a ROTC scholarship?

Question by Do your own thinking!: What is and is not “drug-seeking behaviour”?
Saw a movie recently that had a bit of dialogue between a shrink and her legitimately stressed-out patient that went roughly — _very_ roughly —

Doctor: What can I do to help you?
Patient: At this point, I need some Valium or something like that.
Doctor: I won’t prescribe it. That’s drug-seeking behaviour.

Absurd as it is, even the most rational sort of ‘I think I am at the point where I am in need of medication’ seems to be labelled “drug-seeking behaviour” by a lot of doctors. Are there formal definitions for it?

That is a touchy subject in patient – doctor relations.

Question by chicenstirfry: How to fight video game addiction?
I have played been addicted to video games for almost 10 years now, beginning with the mmorpg runescape. When I was younger I would wake up 1-2 hours early before school and wake up in the middle of the night to play video games. At times it would get bad enough that i would play 25-30 hours a week, probably more during the summer vacations. I would tell myself that video games were practically useless, and that I was essentially wasting my time, but I would never feel comfortable without playing some form of internet entertainment. Video games never had a effect on my grades through elementary, middle, and high school (I am 17) but I am very afraid of it carrying over to my college life. My addiction has gotten better in recent years, but I still spend every single second of my spare time on some kind of game. I have always felt like I could do better in school, do better in my sports, social life etc. but I could never pull myself away from video games. Any advice on how to cut down on this addiction would be appreciated.
