Am I just being anxious?
Hi guys, I can't tell if I'm just suffering from a form of anxiety, or whether something is really up. I'm 22 years old, currently unemployed living with 4 friends. I have quite a clean bill of health, nothing major anyway, few broken limbs, a couple of hernias and I suffer from migraines, even though I smoke (10-15 a day) I play football (soccer) regularly and haven't had much problem with that. Yet for the past few days I haven't felt all there. I'm not entirely sure how to explain this. It sort of feels like I'm slightly high, but nothing like a Marijuana high. Just everything is sort of hazy. Along with this I've noticed small throbbing pains, but only very occasionally and they last a matter of about 20 seconds in the back of my head. They're not really painful though, and nothing compared to a migraine or a bad headache. Onto the next point. I used to have panic attacks though they were never treated, they never happened very often, probably once or twice a year from the age of 11-14, then my Dad died and they became more frequent for a couple of years, going through phases of getting one a day for a week or so to not noticing them at all for 6 or so months then It got back to how it had been before, very rarely noticeable and I didn't pay them much thought at all. Now however, whilst I'm not getting panic attacks as such, I am getting short sudden bursts of dread that wash over me and last a second or two at tops. This is what's making me think I'm just being anxious. These happen at random times though, I don't have to be thinking about anything related and it just happens, probably 6-8 times a day for the past few days. I think for my age I eat healthily and I'm in pretty good shape. I just thought I'd get some views on whether or not this is worth going to the Doctors about, or is it that I'm just being anxious for little to no reason? Many thanks :) Note. I haven't smoked weed in years, and I've never been a pot head. Can count on one hand the amount of times I did get high, but I know the feeling.

Medical School Admissions and Disciplinary Record?
I will apply to medical schools in the near future, but I received a minor disciplinary sanction during my undergrad years. Below is a explanation of what happened. "During junior year of college, I would frequently vent my emotions openly on Facebook when I was frustrated or stressed out. I posted Facebook statements that exposed my raw feelings, and many people were concerned about my wellbeing. A dean became aware of these statements, and to help me manage my stress and express my emotions healthfully, she referred me to counseling and required me to maintain a therapeutic relationship with a clinician. Initially, I didn?t take full advantage of this valuable service, and my wellbeing didn?t improve much. At the end of junior year, I slept through a counseling appointment and didn?t reschedule on a timely basis. Consequently, I was found responsible for ?failure to comply? with the university directive that I actively engage with counseling. I received a disciplinary warning for this violation. I took full responsibilities and began to interact more proactively with counseling. As a result, I learned how to effectively manage my stress and greatly improved my emotional health. I also realized that while it is legal to say certain things on Facebook, some statements will invariably cause concern and trigger a response. From this experience, I became a more mature, sensitive, and amiable person." I am asking, will this hurt my chances? Most have been telling me that it wont be anything more than a minor road bump. Thanks!

help on sisters (Adults) And Who is jealous?
3 sisters. 2 went to really good universities. but the 3rd went to a school that's good but not nearly as good as the other two, but she got into a field that makes a lot more than her sisters. now they've all graduated college. so the one that went to the not as good university, got into a health care field that just makes a lot more than the other 2. is there going to be jealousy in any of the sisters? Who? -2 that went to good universities didnt pick majors that get jobs. so that's why they make a lot less. Just wondering because my family can be intense I'll just tell u guys. I'm the third one. my sisters and mom are all close, but my two sisters =both in graduate school dont have any friends, singled out status. I have a lot of friends in school, i'm not saying popularity matters but I think my family causes drama and is manipualtive. It drives me crazy. My 2 sisters not having friends in graduate school made me think I'm not the only one who doesnt get along with them. lol @ maria. I'm sorry its long u guys. I dont feel good. I'll try & help u.. my families all competitive on money. Yeah they like it but they are very salary driven. Yes one is doing is for the money and admits to that.
