One of my best friends has a very sensitive constitution — if her stomach isn't upset, she's got a cold, or the shingles, or the flu — you name it, she has it. She's one of those people who will tell you exactly how she's really feeling when you simply say, "Hi, how are you?"
Her latest thing is that she's been diagnosed with IBS, which explains her multitude of stomach problems and food sensitivities.

I am 20 years old and in love. The only problem is I'm alone in that love — or so it feels. My boyfriend and I have been together for just about a year and he has yet to tell me he loves me.

Although being independent is great, if you happen to have a stubborn streak, your determination may hinder you from reaching out for help when you need it.

While it seems like an exaggeration, I have never once asked for relationship advice. So I'm coming to you now in hopes that my first time reaching out will be as helpful as I hope for! I have been dating this guy for a couple of months.

As you already know, I’m a huge supporter of therapy and often suggest it as a means of working through a specific issue — some problems are best solved with professional, and specifically, unbiased help. But finding someone who can meet your specific needs and whom you can trust is not an easy task. I’ve compiled a list of things to consider when seeking a therapist.

Within the last few months, my best friend has become a serious downer. Her sister and I cannot figure out the cause, and it's getting worse and worse. She can, and has, literally sucked the energy out of the people around her.

My best friend's boyfriend recently broke up with her. She's devastated, especially since it came out of nowhere. They weren't together very long, but it's the first time that she's been "dumped," so she's never had her heart broken before.

I have three jobs, and work about 70 hours each week. My commute is about 45 minutes each way. I'm a vegetarian and I'm allergic to gluten, so I have to cook all of my meals at home.

The other night while I was talking to my boyfriend on the phone I heard loud moaning and pornographic noises. We talk over Skype because he's at military school, so the microphone picks up a lot of background noises. It's not that I care that he does it so much, it's that he was doing it while talking to me (and I'm sure doing other things too).

My husband and I have been in therapy for the last two years. During one of our sessions, our counselor asked us about when we were intimate for the first time. I told the story, included the "talk" we had about prior partners, etc.
