Ok, just aced my exam. Medfag here, tell me your problems

b but if I take enough ...

i won't feel a thing

I'm worried I might have some form of mental retardation.

Would someone with possible mental retardation be able to type out a coherent sentence like I'm able to?

(For the record, I'm somewhat a hypochondriac.)

What makes you think that? you've never been diagnosed? head injury?

It's in the meat (but not too deep) and I can feel it under some skin too

That's probably true. But why?

Is it recurrent? I would get it done. They can do those in office now. 45 min.

painless out

I'm not able to connect with people the way others are.

My brother tells me that I read social cues fine, but I tend to disagree.

Also to a degree I'm anti-social.

I'm not a psychologist. After take it, I can fix you. I can't help you with your problems

23, weight about 76 kg, never had health problems, no drinking, no drugs or smoking, dont exercise that much but I walk home from work for about 15 minutes every day. im a little chubby though

Therapy perhaps. I don't know if it's anything clinical friend

Do you have pain or swelling on or near your anus? do you itch it? Describe the bleeding: watery, bright or dark? how much blood? painful taking a shit?

>tell me your problems

"Can't fix your problems"
kek

I referred him to a psychologist. he needs a head doctor

what?

no Zoloft?

So I'm 22 and after peeing I need to push out some drips. I also use a layer of toilet paper in my underwear, when I take it out it feels moist (not wet). Has been like this for more than 2y or so. Cannot be caused by std :-(

What do the drips look like? clear? milky? Is this before or after masturbation?

think i might have a std, no physical symptoms but when i jerk off to much my dick gets itchy an kinda feels like iv the flu for a few days, too much of a bitch to go get checked out or even google it.

Burning or tingling during urinating? Check your underwear for any seepage of fluid. They will look like droplet stains. When did you start feeling this way? How long after a sexual encounter?

I've got the same. It's milky, sometimes looks like thick cum after peeing. No STDs, no masterbaiting

Are you sexually active?

My mother is into homeopathetic fucking medicine, a treatable molded toenail is now completely molded. She still resorts to oils and salts.
At this point, is there a nuclear option ( eg using high dossier of anti-yiest-infection and toenail removal) with a high enough success rate to deal with this?

Yes

nope neither, jus kinda like ocassional pins an needles kinda tingles an kinda flu symtoms, sumtimes itchy, only after iv jerked like a few times in a couple days. sittin here right now brand new, but know if i go at it a couple times ima start feelin it again tomorrow. started after drunkely bangin a stranger at a party, up til then iv been fine for 24 years. its got me seriously worried.

Op is gone

If she want's to go that route, tea tree oil as proven effective for anti fungal and anti yeast properties. If it's deep enough, the medicine won't treat the fungus and you will have to debride the nail or at least have a portion removed to penetrate the affected area.

Just urine, nothing else. Not sexually active. Occurs regardless of time since last porn sesh. Can't be std 100% certain, hence the sad face.
I am a hours long edging masturbator, if that could be relevant.

After undergrad do you use any of the organic chemistry stuff they always make pre-med students take?

No I'm here. You should just get an STD test. You should get one anyway every year just because. They are anonymous and no big deal, but if you do have an Std and don't treat it, you could have very serious issues from that, far worse than what you're experiencing.

(not op)
I've heard of people being allergic to their own semen...

I think my hands broken.

Had an STD test recently, has been happening before and after test. Isn't a lot. Just a little and only after peeing

Urinary incontinence is stress related if the seepage is indeed urine. You may want to get a prostate exam just for safe measure, sounds like sphincter weakness

Yes, every day. I'm in anesthesia so it is integral in my practice.

I don't think that it is. There would be considerably more swelling than that.

tnx Doc, i rem reading somewhere herpes is for life and cant be treated so kinda convinced myself thats what it is even though i dont know the symptoms, jus freaking out gettin a test and being told they cant help me so im jus screwed for life.

nah id def know by now if I was bro

You might just have some chaffing mixed with some feelings of paranoia from your sexual encounter given that your STD test was negative for everything. Was it a complete panel?

You will be very popular with women in the maternity ward.

A small bone or two. I blew up the other hand with an m80 and it didn't swell, even though it had a shit load of "remodeling" fractures. So I don't swell a lot.

broke both my hands, some with repeated multiple fractures, used to box a lot, and get angry at walls a lot. not broken just bruised. you would know if it was broken. If you do ever break it dont tho bother with going to emergency room. nothing they can do for you.

What happened? You have a tiny little cut there

My wife will be thrilled.

Complete panel, haven't noticed any chaffing, don't really jerk off, sex every other day give or take shouldn't be any buildup just a small glob that's either cum colored or clear

I know that they're blood vessels but this is in both of my eyes and I feel a certain pressure radiating from those spots. is it anything serious?

I was working out with a body opponent bag without my glasses and had pounded it up against the wall, missed and hit a pipe. Wrapped but no gloves

when I crack my neck my nose bleeds. what do?

anesthesiologist ? Im sure she will, $$$$

Not the dr but maybe stop cracking your neck?

not the doc either but beat me to it

Don't crack your neck.

but when I don't cracky it does the creaky creaky

Whats that student debt lookin like

I'm paying some as I go so not horrendous. I'll probably come out at about 65-80k. Nothing drastic.

Thank you doc for this thread, now you don't need to work for doctors without borders anymore, you have done your part.

How long ago did this appear? Was there any trauma like an accident? Are you constipated or do any heavy lifting?

Ha, thanks I try. Patients are educators, and I learn from every one, so my pleasure

Go Forth and Prosper OP Thanks

Are you on any meds or any change in your diet?

Nice, I appreciate that, thanks.

Ok, pic related. That's me. Well at some point that was me.

Don't worry about dumb ol' herpes. The body is resilient and will find a way. So your subsequent outbreaks will not be as bad and eventually disappear. But please: don't be a douche and not tell your parter if you stop getting outbreaks. That is an ultra dick move, and she'll understand. Mmkay?-doc

my pinky finger went numb in my sleep around a year ago. no feeling at all for like 3 months, but now I sort of half feel it

Try to massage it daily and keep blood flowing there. Eventually the nerve tissue will regenerate( assuming there's damage) and it will feel better. You will notice results quickly if you cup it (kind of like masturbating) and squeeze blood into it and then squeeze it out. That will help a ton.

Been begging for death since 18. Am 21 now. what do

Ok, I said before I'm not a psychologist, but listen: Apply yourself, educate yourself, stop making excuses and feeling sorry for yourself. You are young, don't waste it. I don't know what else I can tell you

I've been having pencil shits the last month, but I've also been going to the bathroom daily, am I dying?

thanks Doc. havnt been with anybody since and no plans to either until i know whats going on, gonna book an appointment 1st thing monday morning, at least now I can stop thinking of it like some sort of terminal illness. I'm gonna feel a right idiot for constantly worrying the last 7 months when it turns out to be something minor that a course of antibiotics can clear up.

I'm 24 yo and addicted to being tired.
I have never taken any drugs, almost never drink alcohol.
When tired I feel 'drugged', no amount of drunkenness compares to that feeling (have only been drunk twice btw). It's even more intense when looking at my light emmitting computer screen. It's the same feeling that keeps you in bed in the morning, or when you finally lie down in bed when you're very tired, but amplified. It really prevents me from having a healthy sleeping schedule. Also lost a total of 2 full years of university so far partly due to this issue. What would you recommend? Ty md

Start eating pure, 100% wheat bran. Your stools should increase in girth, and that is the best thing you can do for colon health. If you do this for two weeks and it's not getting better, time to call the proctologist for a check up. How old are you may I ask?

psychologist here.

folks that 'want to die' fall into a few groups. either you want to die because you hate yourself or because you want to stop suffering. the former is some 'seek immediate help shit'. the second is the 'seek immediate help and change some shit to overcome it shit'.

prior to suicide some people are lacking energy, thus depression's somatic component. starting meds increases the risk. others just want to change/escape the pain, but are scared to because they don't really want to die nearly as much. that doesn't mean they wont kill themselves, but... that isn't the ideal goal.

not sure where you fall on any of those, but go talk to someone. change up what you're doing.

There are SO many people with herpes, You're not alone. I think it's like 1 out of 4 people with some form of the virus. You're fine. Be careful

Been wanting to die since 14, find something to occupy your mind, read, get out more, remember theres no going back from suicide. and half the planet would kill to have your life. Suck it up. lifes shit, its also good sometimes too. you're nothing special nobody is. we're all in the same boat, dont see any of us jumping overboard though.

I am a huge advocate of diet and exercise, and I practice what I preach. You should start there. What are your dietary habits (be honest with yourself)? What are your exercise habits?

This. thank you

How tell difference between MDD and Bipolar II? I wanna kill myself but I want to have the right diagnosis first

Thanks. there are a few other posters that I just can't go there with. It's all you!

19, but I'm only 5'5" and 105lbs

I have had a pretty shitty life so far, I started doing bi-daily push-ups at home. Gives you the feeling of having accomplished more than being a socially isolated Internet addict. Protip: do it before, not after, porn.

Ok, no prob. Yes do that. Take care

I'm a guy btw

Are you a male or female? Are your parents small in stature? What does your dietary intake consist of?

Ok. Are you on any meds or take any drugs? What about chronic illness of any kind?

It's hard to say. I think both of your explanations for wanting death apply here
I should also mention i've been 4-20 for many years, something I am trying live free of now. It seems inconceivable to live such a way. I'm going to go sober for a couple weeks and see what happens, but every attempt has been in vain. Constantly needing to have some sort of 'drug' to get by is miserable.

Diet: pretty healthy food with acceptable amount of fats (compared to other students), not too much sugar. I go running or swimming like once every 1.5 weeks, some push-ups now and then and bike for transportation.

I really feel like an addict, I feel like its heroine or something. Just promising myself to go to sleep on time doesn't work, it's always wanting to stay up 'one moment longer'. Where do I seek help?

My dad is 5'11" and my mom is 5'3", I also have 3 brothers who are 5'11"+

ADHD, and I ate the bare minimum amount of food for many years, not sure if that would contribute or not

keep in mind that post acute withdrawal is about 6 months post substance, and that marijuana/alcohol/cocaine/etc all change the receptors in your brain. it decreases your ability to feel joy from other things. a few weeks won't make you 'feel the same way' which is why people relapse for months. its not just addiction.

You need a sleep schedule that you can stick to. Caffeine is ok if it's part of your schedule and help you maintain your daily routine. don't drink it 6 hours before bedtime. Set rules for internet and turn off the computer 2 hours before you sleep and find another activity before bed like reading.

best way is to call 911 and tell them. the operators are trained in differential diagnosis and will be able to help you quickly and efficiently. make sure you mention that you intend to kill yourself and how you intend to do so when you find out. this will expedite their efforts to assist you.

yup. all this stuff. i charge 80/hour for this all week long. and don't nap for longer than 26 minutes (from the second you lay down) to help maintain the sleep schedule throughout the day.

-psychologist

Yes. sounds like you have some dietary issues. Get on a better eating schedule and diet. If you're a vegetarian, make sure you are eating beans with rice some sort of combo of protein with polysaccharides(starch). Drink plenty of water, cut out the alcohol. 3 liters per day is great. More fiber ( bran) in your diet! You will get those large stools that you so desire!

Yes, good point about the napping. Thank you again.

I'll modify my advice and say 12 hours before bedtime in your case.

Thank you medicalanon for teaching me how to shit properly, I am forever in your debt.

And since I'm annoying, I was wondering if you knew why some people who're knocked out it fights have seizures.

youtube.com/watch?v=UOY-cHiCmkU

Well the human brian is essentially floating in a fluid. A blunt trauma can cause these the brain to impact the cranium and the cells to fire neuronic impulses simultaneously and cause what is called an acute intra-cranial hematoma which causes almost instantaneous epileptic seizure known as a post traumatic seizure. it's very common in brain injuries and concussions.

I'm going to wrap it up. In the future I'll use the same pic, and we'll do this again. Thanks for the interesting questions, (and thanks to the psychologist that joined the thread) and we'll talk again. bye -anesthanon>
