matt87 Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Hi everyone, Im 22 male, I have never really been offered or had the chance to date or to socalise in the past 2/3 years due to my illnesses which I keep getting.. I am still a virgin, an I want to loose it before I reach 25 ( which is only in about 2/3 years time). I have tryed to get on with my life and with the illness, but some days I cant even get out of bed.. could I have your opinons please? also I have joined a couple of clubs, but aint had luck at them so far ( een at the clubs for 3 weeks so far)
JustLooking123 Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 I'm confused; what is your illness? Is it depression and/or anxiety? Have you gotten treatment for it?
Author matt87 Posted September 18, 2009 Author Posted September 18, 2009 I'm confused; what is your illness? Is it depression and/or anxiety? Have you gotten treatment for it? I have sinus problems, which has caused me to have depression in the past.. I am on some medication for it, for the past year and it doesnt seem to be helping that much
stillafool Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Have you tried using a "neti pot" to clear your sinues? My step mom had horrible sinus problems to the point she could hardly get out of bed and broke out in shingles. She was getting shots and going on every medication known for the condition until someone suggested she buy a neti pot. She did and used it 3 times a day for 7 days. She felt like a new person by the second week and has been doing well every since.
Jersey Shortie Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Matt, how often does your illness affect your everyday life? I am assuming it's pretty often. How many days in a week do you find that you can't get out of bed? Is there another thing your doctor can do for you if he and you both feel the medicine isn't working? Do you think you are depressed because of the illness or do you think that is a side affect of the medicine?

Usually I get it all the time, but for most of it, it isnt always too bad, but I do tend to get a couple of bad times with it.. When I have it bad I find I cant get out of bed for weeks or even longer.. but if it aint too bad, then I can get out of bed, but not do much at all. My doctor has tryed me on different medicines and so has the specialist, but none of them seem to work. They have given me excercises to do to make my head better, but they dont work either. I should be going back to my doctors soon. I personally think im depressed because of the Illness.. The medication I am on does not have depression as a side affect.

stillafool Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 I don't know because I am in the USA. Tell your pharmacist what I am talking about (which is a pot you fill with warm distilled water and a saline solution) that you use to wash out your sinus cavity. I'm sure you can get it there.
TaraMaiden Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Google 'neti pot UK' and you'll find plenty of stockists in the UK both online and as shop outlets.... Amazon do them, too... I recommend them.

stepka Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 I'm all for the neti pot too--I actually have less allergies b/c of mine. I'm a bit confused though--I thought my sinuses were bad--I've never heard of them keeping you in bed for weeks at a time. Have you got an infection that won't clear up? I've heard of that b/c antibiotics often won't help much. When I have a sinus infection I add some crushed raw garlic juice to my neti pot solution, which burns like crazy, but it works. Or sometimes I'll empty the contents of a capsule of oil of oregano into it, which has strong antibiotic properties. When you have chronic health problems that the doc can't help with much, do some research into natural remedies, b/c they're often way more effective and they can sometimes cure maladies that the docs can't. I've done this several times in my life and I can vouch for it. One caveat about the neti pot--don't use it when your sinuses are totally blocked--wait until you clear a passageway.

Heya, ah okay then, I will try not to use it when my nose completely blocked.. Thanks for some of those tips.. might have to try them.. I think it may have been an infection that I had about 2 years ago... it hasnt cleared up since I had it.. and sometimes it goes abit and then comes back
bac Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 What about your sexual drive? Do you masturbate at least several times per day?
Author matt87 Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 What about your sexual drive? Do you masturbate at least several times per day? nope.. how comes?
Curious-One Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 hmm very interesting... i have allergies too, which cause me to have sinus infection... but never to the point where it makes me depressed or that i cant get up in the morning. I am very allergic to dust, pollen, and mold and am taking vitamins for it.. i have taken antibiotics and they didnt do anything for me. Antibiotics also destroy the good bacteria in you stomach so i hear.
