Group Therapy: I'm Single and Not Loving It
I think I'll get the hard part over with first: I've never dated, I've never had a boyfriend, and I've never been kissed. What's worse? I'm 21.

How to Help a Friend With Depression
Being depressed or upset about breaking up with your boyfriend or getting in a fight with your best friend is a totally normal response. We all feel sad sometimes, or have short periods of time when we're in a funk, but being clinically depressed is completely different.

Favorite Excuse for Not Working Out: I'm Too Tired After Work
We all have our favorite excuses for not working out but if yours is, "I'm just too darn tired after work to go to the gym," then here are some tips for you:
- Go straight to the gym after work. Stops at home or anywhere else (where people are not working out) may lessen your chances of making it to the gym.
- If you workout at home then don't sit down. Whether it's working out with a video or hopping on your at home elliptical, get right to it.
- Change before you leave.

The answer is unfortunately a little vague - individual needs vary. There are short-sleepers and long sleepers.
Are Yawns Contagious?
Why is it that when I yawn, without a doubt, the people around me yawn too?
It's a tough question because the reason why we yawn in the first place is a bit of a mystery. Not much research has been put into answering this question because yawning isn't really considered a problem.
Got a Bad Case of the Mondays?
You've worked hard all week, so when Friday comes around, you go out with your gals and celebrate. That's awesome. You stayed out late, so you sleep in on Saturday morning.
