The Post Your Problems Thread

[Pokeyomom]

Yeah lol. It's really bugging me. The turbinates (a tissue) inside your nose tell your brain your getting enough air. Mine are all screwed up, so I feel like im in a perpetual suffocation... And I'm an athlete as well:s But o well. Worse things happen.

 

[Captain Fabio]

No offense, but we can't help with those problems...
Hope it gets better.

 

[processr]

At least it is actually a problem - hardly "miniscule". Certainly, it's more of an problem than Miss 'I Cry Rape' and "baww my rep r bad whut i do". I hope things work out for you, and if it does come to surgery, good luck.

 

[Pokeyomom]

Thanks guys:) Yeah my mom has some of the same crap, so maybe some of it is genetic? She has had like 4 surgeries, and has since developed an array of allergies and asthma... I guess it's getting me down some because I was always the 'health nut' guy that ate really good and hit the gym 4 times a week. I never got cold's/flu's etc.

I have an appointment this next week with a EarNoseThroat specialist. I hear this guy is pretty reknowned and very good at his job. So I feel lucky that my mom's insurance still covers me, and that I can address this issue head on. But yeah, I realize you guys can't help me, but it felt good just to vent:D Thanks.

Hey, I have a problem.
More like it's a problem with a good friend and I want to help her. I'm hoping I could get some advice from you guys. c:

I'll put it simply, my friend has a little brother, two years younger than her. He's pretty annoying to her, not like regular little brother stuff. He cusses her and her family out regularly, and sometimes even me and her other friends. He's violent, and just doesn't respect anybody. I'm asking my friend desperately to tell her mom, but she's scared she's going to be immature if she runs over to him every time her little brother cusses at her or her friends. However, she doesn't even want to go have a serious talk with her mother about how he's so disrespectful to everyone. Her mom even tells him to stop, and he doesn't listen to his own mother.
I know at this point, you guys think it's hopeless.
However, I've noticed that whenever his grandmother is present, he acts like a little angel. She's the only one he respects. So, I think to end this horrible ordeal, we have to have his grandma scold him/tell him nicely to respect his sister.
Do you have any ideas? This kid has this sharp knife thing, which was the turning point. He gets mad easily, and could hit someone (Maybe his sister) and could hurt her. It's like a cooking knife, and I have no clue how he got it.
I almost want to talk to her grandma about it, but I'm not sure if it's the best choice.
I know some people are going to say something like "Let your friend deal with it!"
But this is affecting me too, whenever I go to her house.

So please help? c:

Tell her that you can't come over until she deals with it. If you're in danger, you need to stop going over there. Friendship is one of the most important things in life. She'll know that you mean business, and it will help her out too. If she talks to her mom, and still nothing changes. Stay out of it. I know you probably don't want to hear that right now, but there is nothing you can do other than that in that situation. Doing anything more drastic, like getting the authorities involved, will do nothing but get her and her family mad at you. You can suggest things, like counseling, but don't take it into your own hands.

I'm pretty much in the same boat as your friend, though my brother doesn't do anything to provoke/annoy people when other family members are around. It's even hard to ignore him. Though maybe your friend could get her brother sent to military school or something to make him straighten up and not be so annoying etc.

I know my advice really isn't helpful but it's all I can think of right now

Gah, sounds scary. o___o I really dunno what I would do. How close are you to her mother, to your friend, and to her grandma? If you guys are best friends, you're really close to her family, really try to talk to her about telling her parents/grandma or both. You shouldn't be dealing with this kinda stuff anyways. >___< If you aren't that good friends, try to convince her to listen to you, and get mad at her if she doesn't. Tell her you're trying to help her and if she's not gonna listen to you then you will stop trying to help and stop coming over until she does something about her brother. Cause it could turn serious, and we all don't want that for you.

Tell her that you can't come over until she deals with it. If you're in danger, you need to stop going over there. Friendship is one of the most important things in life. She'll know that you mean business, and it will help her out too. If she talks to her mom, and still nothing changes. Stay out of it.

Although this is a good idea, you stated that you don't wanna just let your friend deal with it. Well you should try to convince her some more, like I said up there ^. Anyways, best of luck to you, sweetie~

Since his grandma seems to be the only person he respects as of now, it's probably best if you talk to her. He most likely won't listen to anyone else he disrepects.

if hes a little squirt who you think could also disrespect the law the best thing to do is set him up for something agaisnt the law then involve the cops.

or get your freind to go out with the hardest kid in the year and get him to beat the git up :P
he'll soon respect everybody hes been rude to :D

 

[22sa]

To UraharaSteph: just remember relationships is a mature matter & you're just teenagers--it's natural that changes will occur since you're both still growing up. Give him the space he needs. Respect is more important then your need to bug him.

Beat the living **** out of hit him XD.

But tell the grandmother if he respects her, he will either listen to her, or lose all respect for her. If he loses all respect, then you should process the beat the **** out of him and show him who is boss.

If he's stupid enough to cut his own sister, mother, etc, then he needs to go to a mental home or a military camp or something. I suggest going over to her grandmother's house with her and having both of you talk to her at the same time. That way, with two people saying the same thing, she's bound to do something about it.

Sorry, it's all I can really give. XD

[>Feelings<]

Hello there people.
I don't know if this will be accepted as an actual problem, and I don't know what people here might think of me, but I'm always feeling like it's worthless to keep living.

Even though I am not stupid enough to suicide, I'm almost always very melancholy. Got any advice?

Yeah, um that does count as a problem... Nobody should judge you for it, and if they do they can go jump in a lake. I'm often like that, I've found it worsens when I'm tired. I guess you could try and find triggers for it, they could start the feeling or just worsen them. At the same time, look for the opposite, I've found that for me, I can reduce the feeling of worthlessness and suicide by giving people stuff. They think it's nice and all, but it's just money ^^

Even though I am not stupid enough to suicide, I'm almost always very melancholy. Got any advice?

I'm happy that you came for help :]. Melancholy is peculiar. It can sometimes appear without an apparent reason and cause havoc for you. Instead of trying to deal with the emotion, a lot of people brush it aside, which makes it worse. It's very mature of you to address the emotion and come for help. ^^

I'm going to use the cliche but helpful "life is a rollercoaster" metaphor. There are great times in life and sad times. The coaster sometimes takes an unexpected turn into a part of the ride that you didn't see coming, but you just keep holding on. Even though you're in that unknown part of the ride, you have to keep holding on tight until it's over. Even though you may not know why you are feeling down and upset, it's ok. What you can do is try to do the things you most enjoy. Try doing little things that make you happy. You could do something that made you happy in your childhood, eat a candy that cheers you up all the time, etc. And maybe you could get sleep.

As Charliezard stated, sleep makes your melancholy worse. I remember when I had the same issue that you're having (don't worry, a lot of people have it! You're not alone. :) ). I remember being exhausted and thinking life was worthless and I didn't want to live anymore. I wasn't going to suicide, but I couldn't help feel like it was worthless. After sleep and doing a lot of things that made me genuinely happy, it passed. Maybe you should try it. ^^ I also remember telling my mom about my feelings. As much as I didn't want to, I knew that I couldn't keep quiet. She helped me though. :]

So try getting sleep, do things you enjoy, and maybe tell someone close to you for support. Of course, you have all of us for support, but having someone that's close to you can make a huge difference. Facing an emotion alone may be difficult, but with another person you feel strong. Once again, I'm really glad you came for advice, and if you need anything, remember that there are people who will be there for you.

 

[Sweet Smoochum]

Feelings, listen, I get melancholy, too, sometimes. However, like Michii said, I, too, have reason to believe that it's from a lack of a good night's sleep. (I've been up since 10:30pm and it's 1:04pm now Eastern standard time.) Usually, after I wake up, I feel tons better and feel more optimistic. I believe the best thing to do is get sleep, and make sure you eat healthy as well. Not eating when you should could also be the problem. People can get very cranky and irritable when they don't eat. It can make a person very moody. Seeing as how it's summer, use this time to improve your sleeping habits. If there are shows you like watching late at night that keep you up, you could try recording them or see if they go on at an earlier time during the day. Hope I was able to help.
