Open Question: How can I make my dog sleep through the night?

I have a miniature Chinese Shar Pei and she wakes up during the night, not because she needs to pee/poop, she just wakes up, and starts grooming herself, or smacking her lips. My boyfriend is a light sleeper, and the sound of her scratching, smacking her lips, licking, etc drives him absolutely insane. I don't always notice it, and when I do, it doesn't bother me, but my boyfriend says the sound my dog makes, causes him to feel angry when it's happening, then he can't get back to sleep. And it's just my dogs sounds, he can sleep through traffic driving by without a problem. We're both looking for a solution. I live in a bachelor apartment, so there is no other room for her to go into. She usually sleeps on the couch across the room from our bed. Since Abby is a Shar-pei, the loose folds of the skin do cause her to have big, meaty lips. I don't think she can help it, I think it's just a bodily function for her, but how to stop her from waking us up in the middle of the night? more

Resolved Question: Do you find it strange for a married couple to sleep in different rooms?

M husband and I have been together for 7 years and for about 5 of those years, we have slept in seperate rooms. Ever since we moved to where we live now, the air is so dry, my husband snores like crazy. Not a little snore, a really loud obnoxious snore and I am a very light sleeper. I also wake up throughout the night, 4 and 5 times a night and I don't want to disturb him. I have insomnia so it's hard enough to sleep, let alone him snoring all night. Anyway, lately he's been saying that he misses sleeping with me. Sometimes I wonder if our one year old daughter will find it strange when she gets older. I don't want to send her any unhealthy relationships messages. It's been working for us to sleep in seperate rooms for years now but I wonder if it will keep working. more

Resolved Question: Sudden toddler sleeping problems?

My 18-month-old has been waking up between 11:00 and 1:00 am pretty much every night, crying and screaming. She's always a good sleeper unless she's teething (which she might be, because those last molars take forever to show). The problem isn't only the waking, but when I go in there to settle her, she wants out and refuses to go back into her crib. I know it's a horrible habit, but I've had to stay in her room with her, because we have a friend who is staying with us to relocate his family here and crashing in our living room, right next to her room. He has to get up at 5:30 (as does my hubby), so I can't leave her screaming her head off for 30+ minutes. Plus, it's not just a little fussing, but the kind of screaming she does when she is really hurt or scared. I know it's not night terrors, because she's definitely awake, but maybe nightmares. I'm having trouble settling her down. She crawls all over me, flipping and fidgeting and talking for over three hours (last night)! Sometimes it seems like she has a tummyache (gas), but sometimes I have no idea what is causing it. Anyone had their toddler do this for a short period of time and figure out what it was? It takes over 20-30 minutes of leaving her screaming loudly for her to go back to sleep (I know because our guest was gone for the weekend and had to do that to avoid going in her room). Any other suggestions? more

Resolved Question: PLEASE ANSWER!!!!???........................?

Im having my 12 yr old neice come over to my dads townhome for the summer for the first time (i never met her and neither has he) and ...... We only have two bedrooms and it is a small townhome so we were thinking about getting a sectional couch cause we saw a sectional we liked and liked them better than the sleepers. WELL THE PROBLEM WITH HER SLEEPING IN THE LIVING ROOM SINCE THERE IS JUST TWO BEDROOMS IS WHERE IS SHE GOING TO CHANGE? WILL SHE NOT HAVE ENOUGH PRIVACY? DO YOU THINK IT WOULD BE OF INCONVENIENCE TO HAVE TO GO TO MY BEDROOM AND CHANGE AND TAKE A SHOWER IN MY BATHROOM (WHICH IS CONNECTED TO MY ROOM). I ALSO DONT WANT TO WAKE HER IF I GO DOWN TO THE KITCHEN WHICH IS RIGHT BY THE LIVING ROOM. So what could I do to make her feel like she has some privacy? Thanks she may be there from a week or two to a month? my room is SUPER small so she cant stay in there with me and I toss and turn in my sleep so she cant sleep in my bed. Also pretty much all the other rooms with doors is the half bath and its small so it would be hard to change in there we DO have a big closet also with shelves RIGHT BY the living room that she could put her suit case,clothes,belongings in. more

Resolved Question: whats going on when i sleep and dream?

sometimes when i go to sleep i dream about these ghosts, i remember i was seeing a old lady in my dream. Also when that occurs i feel paralyzed, like i wanna scream but i cant, and my chest is like its being pulled up, when i wake up my back hurts, also i almost choked in my sleep when i was paralyzed when i wanted to scream. my mom tells me that In Mexico, it is believed that this is caused by the spirit of a dead person. This ghost lies down upon the body of the sleeper, rendering him unable to move. People refers to this as "Subirse el Muerto" (Dead Person on you). but this only happens when i sleep in my room only and i remember but i dont know if it was a dream or not but i remember i was grabbed by the neck and moved my head the left side of my bed and i saw a skeleton face. now i sleep in the living room or with the lights on! whats wrong? do i have a sleeping problem or is my room hunted? more

Resolved Question: Night Terrors....Desperate mom..Please help.?

My son is two years old and has never been a good sleeper. About a year ago we discovered that every once in a while he was experiencing night terrors. They were worrisome but never lasted long and were few and far between..Then slowly over time he started having them more frequently (at least twice a week now) and they last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour. As a mom I am terrified. To watch my little boy be so frightened and not be able to comfort or help him kills me. After all I am mommy..I kiss a booboo and its better..I hug him when he is sad..But I cannot fix this. Last night he had a particularly bad one that lasted an hour and fifteen minutes. He would clench his fists and scream or kick his feet and arch his back to the point where his whole body was so tense he would shake. He kept calling out for me but when I reached for him he would run away from me as if I was the monster. He finally came out of it, crawled on my lap and went to sleep..It ended as abruptly as it started. His doctor never has any other answers for me other then "its a night terror" .. I did some reading last night and feel that maybe he has some kind of sleep disorder. I am not a doctor but am tempted to take him to a doctor that will listen to my fears. I guess I am asking for advice..from experienced parents that have gone through this. And opinions on weather I am just overreacting and trust his current dr. Sorry this was so long..I am stressing so badly about this. I have resorted to sleeping in the living room just so i can be near him when he shoots up in his bed and screams in panic. P.S. He has an older brother and younger twin sisters that so far in life have not had any kind of sleep problems whatsoever..Thank you for listening. more

Resolved Question: is he cheating on me?

Voting Question: i think maybe im having possible seizures?

I am 17 years old and am wondering if maybe im having seizures in my sleep, and not being totally aware of it. Lately, I have been having blurred vision, sometimes even mild double vision, and i am constantly tired. I went to my doctor a few months ago and was diagnosed with mono, so i didnt think anything of being tired. recently i had strep throat and a fever and i blacked out and fell in the bathroom floor. i still wasnt concerned about that, neither was my doc, until i wound up i the emergency room one night, due to "possible seizure". i came home from school, and was tired so i was going to lay down on the bed for just a few minutes. last thing i remember is thinking "ok i gotta get up and get my notebook done" and next thing i know, my mom is waking me up 2 hours later telling me im in the floor. i woke up extremely confused, not able to think, not remembering anything about that day, my nose had dry blood in it, i had carpet burns on the right side of my face, and i was very nauseous. my mom called the doc and they said to take me to the e.r. so she did. i threw up in the car on the way there. they did a CT scan and bloodwork and EKG at the hospital, everything showing up normal. they ordered me to a neurologist for further testing. he did a EEG, and i am still waiting on the results.i guess i am just not a very patient person and i want to know why that happened, and why i've been feeling weird lately. the same thing happened at my friends house about a month ago. i went to sleep in my friend's bed and woke up on her couch in the living room. she said wen she tried to wake me up i was in the floor and she shook me and i would not wake up(i am usually a very light sleeper) and she also said i went to the bathroom, back into her room, then into the living room. i woke up on the couch and asked how i got there. oh and i lost control of my bladder too...kind of really embarassing but i figure i should include everything:). but yea i am just wanting to hear opinions of other people.thanks for any comments left.i really appreciate it. more

Voting Question: 19 month old toddler sleeping patterns, need help?

my daughter goes to bed about 10pm, and wakes about 7.30am. this doesnt sound so bad, BUT getting her to sleep is difficult and keeping her asleep is sometimes a struggle. She sleeps on a mattress on the floor in the living room and needs either my husband or myself to put her to sleep, which can involve pushing her in her stroller, sleeping next to her, or carrying her in our arms. Then she wakes a few times at night (sometimes more often since she is teething) and wont go back to sleep without her dad with her and a bottle of milk. She has never been a great sleeper, since she was born we'd be rocking her to sleep (no we dont 'give in', she really was a bit difficult and it was the only way). About her teething - she got her first tooth at 15 months and has about 8 now so we know she is teething, but like i said she was never really the best sleeper. She naps once or twice a way for and hour or hour and a half, but even then its difficult getting her to sleep sometimes. My question is, how can we make it so we put her in her PJs and into bed to sleep - the way it should be? Any ideas, approaches or suggestions are welcome, thanks. PS. i have a 4 month old baby at home so letting her cry it out wouldnt really work because shed be waking the baby. just to add she has her own bedroom with a cot except shes never really slept in there for long. more

Resolved Question: Why is my cat getting into everything, and he doesn't react to discipline at all. Help!?

My boyfriend and I have had Poster, 11 month old, male Norwegian Forest cat, for the better part of a year. He is neutered, and gets a lot of attention and love, he has plenty of toys, and a scratch post. He's a very good cat, very loving and friendly, but recently he's just been really getting on last nerve. I want to say, maybe about a month ago, he suddenly learned how to jump on the counter, open our sliding closet doors, open cabinets, and taken a strange new fascination to all the wires behind our tv. We have a small side table/cabinet next to our couch, where we kept his treats and other various junk. I came home from the gym one day to discover not only that he'd somehow managed to open to the cabinet (which has small "U" shaped swinging handles on them, and magnets to keep them shut), but he'd ripped open his bag of treats, and strewn the contents of the 'junk' all over the living room. He's been waking me up, like clock work, every morning at 4-4:15, trying to scratch his way into our closet (the doors are mirrors) so you can imagine how irritating this would be to wake up too every single morning. Once I shoo him away from the closet, he moves onto the side cabinet in the living room and works on that. Last night I found a bushel of bananas under the kitchen table that he'd knocked off the counter and dragged under there. I'm serious, I've had it. This started out of nowhere and no matter what we do, spraying him with water, yelling, ignoring him, giving him a light smack, he just continues to do it. I know it sounds ridiculous but I'm practically to the point of tears some nights because I'm so fed up with his behavior and keeping me awake at night, waking me up in the morning, actually losing sleep over a cat! I even wasted $7.00 bucks on a bottle of 'KEEP OFF' cat spray, and after using half the can, he actually walked over and sniffed it like he liked it!!!!!! I have just had it, and I don't know what to do. My boyfriend can sleep through it, but I'm a light sleeper and am having a huge problem with it. Is anyone else having this problem or know of ANYTHING that I can do? I'm getting desperate. Thanks, J C, but let me make something perfectly clear. I do not ABUSE my cat, and I am very patient with him. I realize this is normal cat behavior, but after a month of being woken up over and over again, it's becoming very irritating. Thank you for your opinion, but I don't appreciate being made out to be some animal abusing freak who neglects our pet. If you have something negative to say about my question, keep it to yourself. I was looking for an honest answer with someone who may have a solution. Not a bashing. Ok, let me rephrase my question, is there anything I can do to prevent my cat from doing these things? It's not the climbing I am concerned with. I have done much research on the NFC, and I realize climbing is part of his nature. I throughly enjoy his company, and my boyfriend and I love him and play with him very much, but I am just tired of being woken up night after night because he does not understand that he shouldn't be doing those things. We have no intentions of 'getting rid' of him because he is our pet, we love him. We actually do plan on getting another cat when we move out of our apartment and into a house next month. I have had many cats before, I understand their behavior, but none that have insisted countless nights on getting into anything and everything, so maybe I am just not used to it. Like I said, I wasn't looking for a bashing. Just something that may deter him from making messes and getting into things he shouldn't be. more

now please be completley honest. if you think this is too personal, then kindly exit the question. you do not by any means have to answer. do you ever get tired of, or find sexual encounters with your husband/fiance/long term SO boring/ i am just wondering because my fiance and i have been together for three years and could really use some spicing up in the bedroom. he works a full time job and i'm a full time mom. he usually comes home from work, tinkers with his truck or something. his cousin (who is also our neighbor) comes over daily and they have guy time just watching movies or fixing things. then after supper he sits in the living room and watches television until he falls asleep on the couch, and his cousin goes home. he usually stays on the couch too because he is an extremely heavy sleeper and will not wake up to come to bed. so i go on to bed with our son myself. if he does make it off the couch then he goes straight to the shower then straight to bed and asleep again. on the weekends, his cousin (john) comes over first thing in the morning and they just have guy time and dick around tinkering with their cars, or they do yard work like snow shovel or mow the grass, rake leaves ect. this continues until the end of the day and greg (fiance) and john come in and watch tv until greg falls asleep and john lets himself out. sundays i go to church w/o greg and i usually spend the day with my mom and sisters out at my moms house afterward. When i get back after sjunday evening service, john is 99 percent of the time here and the same couch sleeping, john leaving scenerio happens again. I have already posted a whole question about what to do about john's clingyness, which can be found here. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ag.KrdE7hXRSzsxwBbMPgOvty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20100114094634AA9GFPe The bottom line is, my fiance and i have zero bedroom time. When we do get a few spare minutes before bed (always before bed too, never during the day.) its a hit it and quit it type of encounter. no foreplay or anything but straight to it sex. and we are done in less then ten minutes. my fiance has already stated that he only has sex for me because i want it and enjoy it. he says that he enjoys it but could do without if he he never had the opportunity again. we are both healthy 20 year olds, with a 17 month old son. i love having sex with my fiance, but it has been sooo boring and almost bothersome to seduce him lately that I have resorted to masterbating and watching porn or imagining other men. I'm sorry to be so vulgar, and im sorry if its offensive but i really just want my love life back. i don't even know why i fantasize about other men because i would bnever ever act on these fantasies even if i could. i have zero interest in cheating or leaving greg. and for the record, greg is a very attractive man. he has muscles and dark hair and dark eyes. he's not heavy, he's tall and strong and i am head over heels in love with the guy. and the sex we do get to have, i love. I do not like his attitude towards our sex life, though. (he says sex is not everything and i should stop being so focused on sex and more focused on our relationship as a whole) I honestly think its a libido problem but he will not see a doctor for it. he thinks there is no problem except i won't leave him alone in the sack. He refuses 99 percent of my advances, so i just stop trying and wait for him to come to me. he shows interest like i said when we get a few minutes before we hit the hay SOMETIMES. we have sex once a week IF and only if i'm lucky. we average about three times per month. we have had these 5 min sex sessions ever since our son was born. thats not to say there hasn't been a couple hot steamy nights, but i mean literally two in 17 months. moms, do you ever get bored with your long term se partner? what did you do? how can i help this situation? funny u mentioned lingerae. i have some, and when i wear it for him its like i mwearing sweats. he totally ignores it. i even bought new lingerae for him before was wearing it when he got home from work. our son was spending time with gma that day. he came home and said where did u buy that and i told him nad he just said o ok. and went to the kitchen, got something to eat and came back to the bedroom and layed down. he just laid there for awhile and finally said "u care if i watch tv?" i told him he could and got up and changed. as far as toys and fantasies go, i have a few toys geared towards females and i use them to masterbate but he refuses to use them on me or watch me use them or anything. he said it takes the romance out or the bedroom and i was like um hello what romance? we always have sex in our bed, with me on top doing all the work. always. maybe once every 3 months we do another position. his fantasy consists of myself and a specific friend of mine having a 3sum with him-not going to happen. i have told him some of mine, not to be explicit but i want him to use our whip on me and me use it on him, i want to use flavored lubes, i want to tape ourselves ect. he thinks all of that is silly and a waste of time and refuses to do any of it. more

Voting Question: How did you wean your baby from the pacifier?

I am looking for suggestions. My baby is 4 and 1/2 months old. He used to be a fairly decent sleeper, going from about 8 - 3, then again up to eat around 5 or 6, back in bed until 7 or 8 usually. Lately, he's been up all the time, and only naps for half an hour. I KNOW that this is because he wakes up and can't put himself back to sleep on his own, since we've never made him cry it out. I believe this is too young for cry it out. Some "sleep experts" agree with me; others do not. For the past 2 weeks, he has been putting himself to sleep in his carseat. (not while driving; while in my living room). He takes his pacifier and sits there sucking until he falls asleep. Encouraged by this, I started putting him in his bed at naptimes. He miraculously went to sleep on his own there, too, with music and the pacifier, so I thought we were golden! Then, last night was our worst night ever! Up every 45 minutes or so, lonest stretch was about 2 hours. By experimenting today with putting him down without music and with pacifier, or without pacifier but with music that it is the PACIFIER that helps him go to sleep. Then, when he wakes up he can't go back to sleep on his own. I need tips to help him go to sleep wihtout it on his own. What worked for others? He always wakes up 30 minutes into night sleep and naps, so I know that's his pattern. If I could just get him to go to sleep on his own with no pacifier (or with something that we could keep going all night long like music or something) I think we would make great strides. Please tell me what worked for you! The reason I want to wean him from the pacifier is that it is the only way he falls asleep; therefore, when he wakes up every 30 minutes - 3 hours he can't go back to sleep unless we give him another pacifier or do something like rock or feed him. I'm not expecting him to sleep for 11 or 12 hours or something very lucky like that, but going back to 4 - 7 hour stretches would be nice...If it was just a matter of his liking a pacifier, I wouldn't care. It's the fact that his sleep association is with the paci, which means he and we do not sleep well. Okay...once again, it is not helping him sleep; it's helping him FALL asleep, then he can't sleep because when he makes a brief awakening, he can't go back to sleep without it. more

Resolved Question: Housetraining New Puppy?

So, after our little rescue had her suprise litter (she came to us pregnant when we rescued her and neither us nor the previous 'owner' knew at the time) we had planned to give them all to my uncle since he has a kennel/ranch type place and takes in strays and rescue's all the time. He's perfectly able to take care of many more than just the five, and will give them all the care they could ever desire. Well, we decided to keep one of the puppies, and the uncle's Christmas present to us was to pay for all the puppies Vet needs (Shots, innoculations, etc) for the first year of his life. Very sweet present indeed. So, they are 6 weeks now. I've read over and over that dog's cannot 'hold it' until 12 weeks of age. Their pen area (since we live in an apartment) is pretty much the entire living room and one side has peepads on it while the other half is where they sleep & play when they are in it at night and I can't be letting them run around the whole house going everywhere and getting in to god knows what because I'm not awake to watch them. How soon should I take the pee-pads away from my little guy? How soon is too soon to start crate training? Can I just start at the 12 week mark since he will be able to 'hold it'? I'm wary of starting the crate training now because if it's true they can't hold it at night he'll be stuck in the crate and will go all over himself wether he wants too or not. I'm a hard sleeper, and if he starts crying because he's stuck in his own poop and pee for hours on end I may not hear him to wake up. If I'ma need to start now ~ What is the best and most productive way for housebreaking starting at 6 weeks old? If I need to wait and start at the 12 week mark then it will be much easier as I already know what to do about that. more

Resolved Question: 16 month old sleeping thru the night?

She was a good sleeper until she got sick around Christmas time. Now she wakes up and cries and screams. No matter how long she cries (a minute or ten minutes) the second I pick her up she falls back to sleep on my shoulder. Everyone tells me to let her cry it out a few nights since nothing is wrong with her now physically, they say she's just spoiled from getting up at night when she was sick. It's hard because me and the husband share a room with her. Our 11 year old son has one room. One nine year old daughter has another room. We plan on moving the baby into my daughter's room eventually but I was gonna wait until summer break so if the baby didn't sleep good, it wouldn't make a big difference in my older daughter's sleep schedule. I have blankets all around the sides of the crib so she can't see out if she's laying down but if she stands up she can peek out and see me if I'm laying in my bed. The waking up happens whether I'm in the room or laying on the couch. Any suggestions, I've mostly been picking her up after less than 5 minutes and bringing her out to the living room. She'll sleep on the couch with me or on the floor next to me if I put some blankets down. I miss sleep. Any suggestions. My husband tries to help but since she's with me 24/7 while he's at work, she has a big preference for me. Thanks! more

Resolved Question: Am I being inappropriate?

Okay so here's a little information: I'm sixteen and my girlfriend just turned seventeen. We're teens, is the bit to take from that. I'd willingly tell you that I love this girl with all my heart and hope to continue that course for some time. And we've been dating over a year. We're both very down-to-earth people. We live about twenty minutes apart and at the time of these stories, neither of us drove so we relied on our parents to get us to each other. Possibly most important is that we are both virgins. To this day. My mother has a way of learning about every little thing I do for her. From the slightest expense to the biggest gift, it comes to her somehow. All events are past, since now I know her limits for me... Before I continue, I must voice my opinion here. I personally believe my mother lives in another time where teenagers behave very differently from behaviour now. So the first bit happened on the 2008-2009 new year. I was having an incredibly difficult time getting home after her friend's new years party. Her mom had been drinking a bit, cast her out of the driving scheme. My dad hadn't been drinking but he was ready to hit the floor at about eleven. So I proposed that I just spent the night at her house. Now before passing judgment, the criteria are drastically different from how they sound. First: Her mother and brother are extremely protective, she is the youngest in her family. Second: I would NOT have been and out of respect would not have asked to be sleeping in her bed. Naturally. The way the layout of the house was, I would sleep in a bed upstairs. I had NO intention of doing so, but in order to sneak into her room, I would have to get past her mom, a light sleeper, and her brother, who may not have been asleep at all, and is also rather light. So nothing bad could have gone down. But both of my parents insisted it was inappropriate and dad took me home at one in the morning and drove nearly as bad as drunk with his tiredness. And is it inappropriate today for a boy to spend time with his girlfriend in her room? Vice versa? We spend a lot of time in each others rooms, door always open and her rather protective brother just down the hallway. No funny business. But mom insists I'm being inappropriate and disrespectful It could just be my own skewed view of everything. I'm just a kid, after all. And I love to sound like a typical teenager, so I'll go ahead and say that many of my friends do the same if not far "worse" with their girlfriends of much less time and commitment. I'd prefer mature, well-thought out answers to help me with this. I'm very careful with whom I would share this with, but none of my close friends can give me a straight answer. So here I am. The ultimate question is the same bold one up top: Is that inappropriate? Thanks for taking the time to read and respond, it means more to me than you could know. more

Voting Question: How to train my cat not to meow?

I just adopted a wonderful long haired calico from our local shelter to keep me company. She's a sweet and very affectionate cat, but she has a meowing problem. I live in an apartment with five other roommates....the cat stays in my room with her food, litter box, bed, etc. but at night she'll wake up and meow. I just don't want her waking up my roommies. The first night I got her she got up every half or or so and meowed at the door (which I was expecting since she just arrived) but I was out of town last night and my friends/roommate said she didn't hear her meowing at all the second night when I was gone. She sleeps a lot (thankfully) but I'm a light sleeper and I don't know if she'll meow or not tonight, but if she does how do I stop it? The first night she did it I kept flicking her with bits of water and it worked to an extent, but an hour later she would start up again. How can I train her not to meow, or at least quiet her appropriately when she does? Thanks! more

Resolved Question: Who is right me or him?

I'm in a live together relationship.The problem is he is a very heavy smoker and has a very bad smokers cough. He coughs so hard sometimes he almost throughs up. At night after he has been asleep for about 4 hours he starts coughing which wakes me up. He is the type that goes to sleep in chairs, he can sleep any where any time. I am the type that is a light sleeper, once I'm woke up in the middle of the night I can't go back to sleep. I have ask him when his coughing jag hits would he please get up and go into another room to cough up the the stuff in his lungs so he doesn't wake me up. His excuse for not getting up is. he can't help it. I say he CAN help not getting up and going into another room and he is just being to lazy and inconsiderate of me to get up. If he could not go back to sleep like me it would be different, but like I stated he can go right back to sleep. So who is right Thank all of you for your answers. Here's an up date. I kicked him out not for the coughing but I caught him with his ex-wife who has been arrested 17 times 13 of the arrests was for crack cocain and prostitution!!! Now I have to get tested for std's. Pray I didn't catch anything from him. By the way we are in our 60's. more

Voting Question: life anxiety help, feel like i've lost my mind?

ok first of all i would like to say that it isnt like me to post anything on the internet because i am so anti social that i sit in my room all the time and im not even social enough to voice myself anonymously over the internet so this is a big move for me and i hope that someone here can help me out. lately more and more frequently i have been having feelings of many negative things like feeling severely lonely(like i have little to no friends left and they dont care that much, and family isnt as close as can be), feeling incapable to carry out normal tasks like chores and even going to school, feeling so regretful of my past mistakes that i cant even bare to remember them (there is so many), generally feeling depressed so much to the point where i have no idea what to do, absolutely zero attention span anymore. no idea what to do with my life, what to do about all these problems, and how to be a normal person and get out in public. every time i go out in public it just seems like everyone is staring at me and seems to know that all i do is sit at home by myself and constantly think about these things. i am generally healthy eater and sleeper, i just have no idea what to do anymore, this has been progressing more and more for years now and im 20 now (male) and its only getting worse. there is so many problems i dont even know if i can isolate it to a certain disorder (ex depression, social anxiety, bi polar, adhd). I have been trying things like 5 htp, omega 3 but these things dont cure any of this. I also cannot function without my single cup of coffee in the morning. everything just seems way to much for me and i just want to run away to a forest and live in a shack becuase i cant even deal with the simplest things anymore. if you have any input would be greatly appreciated! more

Resolved Question: How thick should the cork be on my door to dampen sound sufficiently?

So my dorm is pretty noisy, I live in a suite style place so outside of my door, there's a small hallway, then a common room. The problem I've been having is that I am a light sleeper and when people talk at a regular level (and obviously above that), I can hear it perfectly in my room, preventing me from sleeping. It's almost as though my door wasn't even shut. I have done a little research and the most feesable idea I had was to use cork board to cover my door (on the inside) such that it is flush with the floor and other gaps between the door and wall. I am just not sure how thick I should put the cork. Granted, I'm on a relatively low budget as I'm a college student... would 1/8" be thick enough to do the job? That is, to dampen the sound a reasonable amount to make it more like muffled, ambient sound. Thanks! more

Voting Question: How to deal with flatmate dilemma?

Hi, I'm a 2nd year student in the UK and last year I lived on the college campus, but for this year everyone's had to look for private accommodation, and I found these 2 people on a website, a guy and a girl, they were looking for a third person to share a flat with. I liked the flat, etc etc, the essence of the whole thing is that I have been living with them for 4 months now. They are okay if they're by themselves, they're nice people, educated, etc. The problem is with the girl - her girlfriend, who's just moved to the UK in August is ALWAYS at our place. I mean ALWAYS. sleeps here 7 nights a week, takes showers here, cooks here, watches tv here...etc. She does have her own flat which she shares with a couple of people but she never seems to go home! Apparently she doesn't like living there because her flatmates are too loud. Ironically, she seems to be quite loud whenever she's here. It's irritating because sometimes I like to sleep late (11 am, no more..) but they wake up at 8.30 am no matter what day it is (even Sundays) and start laughing and flirting with each other in their room (which is right next to mine). I am a light sleeper and very bothered by this...I use ear plugs but they are no good. It's irritating having her girlfriend here 24/7 because sometimes they're noisy and it's just plain annoying. She NEVER EVER leaves.How do I deal with this? I hate confrontation and am no good at it. If I confront them about it, they'll either give me weird looks for the rest of our lease or start going on and on about people discriminating gay couples or something...the landlord always calls before visiting the flat, and so whenever he comes we 'make sure' the girlfriend isnt here which is why he will never find out. I do not want to rat them out, so please do not suggest this as a solution. Am I overreacting here or am I right to be bothered by this? It's not even legal more

Resolved Question: why didnt anything happen?

i took a trip with friends for the week to visit a friend at college in the midwest. we got in yesterday and went out to dinner with her roommate. later, we went out to the bars, where she sat next to me and we started talking. eventually we got to playfully holding hands and flirting. because i was supposed to sleep in the house on a couch in the front landing, she offered me her couch in her room because the front landing is very cold at night. once we were all back i brought my stuff to her room and when she closed her door, we were standing in the room and I went in to kiss her which she was receptive to. when we stopped, she said to me "youre sleeping there (the couch) tonight" obviously a reference to not sleeping in her bed (she has a queen). i understood this because it was 2am and she had to be in to work in the campus labs at 9. when i asked her if there is a chance i could sleep there in the coming nights, she said "maybe." before we turned the light out, she said she has an irritating alarm that might wake me up and something about jumping on her to wake her up because she is a heavy sleeper. so this morning that alarm sounded and she didnt turn it off so i got up to do it and when i was next to her bed she pulled me onto the bed and we proceeded to cuddle until she had to get out of bed. i kissed her again to see if anything more might happen but she seemed not to want to do anything of the heavy petting nature. we are staying for 3 more nights and i assume ill at least be able to stay in her room on the couch because of the other couch being in a cold room. theres not really any chance we could date because we live and go to college 10 hours away. at the bars last night i made sure not to get sloshed because she was not drinkin a lot because she had to get up early today. she is working again early tomorrow and probably not coming out to the bars with us. how should i proceed in the next few days? more

Resolved Question: my 2 year old daughter insists on sleeping in my bed?

I am a single parent, we live the 2 of us in a 3 bedroom apartment. She has her own room with a toddler bed. She refuses to sleep in her bed. If I do manage to put her to sleep in her bed, when she wakes up in the middle of the night to adjust covers or grab a teddy bear, she exits her bed and walks to my room and demands I place her in the bed with me. I have tried to ignore her, in hopes she would return to her own bed, and she took it upon herself to climb in my bed. It is an epic battle to get her to sleep in her own bed and when I do, it is a more difficult challenge to keep her there. She use to be such a good sleeper, what happened and how do I fix this????

Voting Question: i need someone to talk to (it's long)?

i'm sixteen and i've been having a lot of problems lately. my mother, my brother and i have recently moved into a house with my mothers boyfriends and his daughter. we moved out of the city we've been living in since i was six months old. we didn't live in a good neighborhood, but it didn't bother me or my brother that much because we were used to it. the only sad thing is a lot of our friends were dying and still are, that hurts but we try not to let it hold us down. we used to live in an apartment; my brother and i both had our own rooms and they were pretty big. well since moving here the both of us not only share a room but a bed. this is very uncomfortable because he snores and is a bad sleeper so i never get enough sleep for school and have to start getting ready at six in the morning. before moving here my brother and i both got the idea that my moms boyfriend was more talk than action and he had no intention of having my brother and i come live with him. my mother had been living with him for four months, while my brother (who is 18 and was 18 at the time) and i lived in our apartment. those four months were rough, i got kicked out of school and there were times we had nothing to eat. my moms boyfriend used to get upset when my mom would come home and want to spend a night with us so she didn't do that very often. well the reason why we had to move in with him was because he borrowed my moms money she would send us to pay the rent and didn't return it and his daughter has diabetes so my mom used her money for the little girls medication. well after three months of not paying the rent the building was going to evict us so we moved during the night, we didn't get all our stuff out but the building locked the door on us the next day because they had a court order(we're still in the process of going to court and paying them off). well that's how we ended up over here, my mos boyfriend promised to build a room in the basement for my brother but that was back in august. he never even attempted to build the room and he's more than capable because he's a carpenter and does that kind of stuff for a living. well i don't want to continue with all the details but since being here i've been very unhappy and i cry almost everyday. i kind of feel alone, and when i cry i remember the bad things that happened to me growing up. when i was eight i was sexually assaulted more than once by someone i knew. (i don't want pity but i just want to give an idea of what comes in my head when i'm sad) well i don't know what my question is but i just had to get all of this out. i truly am sad with my situation and i don't know what to do. i've talked to both my mom and step dad but it's no use i have no one else i can stay with and i just feel alone. i hope i didn't bore anyone i just needed to get that out thank you everyone for your support and your answers more

Resolved Question: Law against blaring music outside?

I have been having real issues with my neighbors for the past 3 years now (if its not with screaming children or them letting their dogs go to the bathroom on our front lawn and not picking it up), and I'm wondering if within the law there is something I can do about it. The latest fiasco with them is their light up singing Christmas tree that is outside, it is blaring the Christmas music so loud I can hear it in every room in my home (along with the rooms that don't have windows!) and it is really disturbing my standard of living. It is so loud that I can distinguish which song it is playing everywhere I am in my home, and even when I'm doing dishes! They play it from 6 in the morning until 10 and then from 6 at night to 10. It is so loud that it wakes me up in the morning (tried to listen to music and had head phones on, I'm a restless sleeper they come off) and I'm studying for finals right now so I don't have to be up and I stay up late to study because I don't want to be interrupted with the tree. I have spoken to them on many occasions about hearing the tree in my home and they refuse to turn it down saying that if I want to study then I should just go to the library and if I want sleep to head to bed early. They claim they don't hear it in their home and that it isn't their problem. I am getting extremely frustrated so I'm wondering if there is any law that is against music players being that loud and if I have the law on my side to try stop this. And yes it is playing Jingle Bells right now and I'm in the furthest room away from the tree. Thanks :D I have talked to them, many times! They are extremely unreasonable with this subject. I already put that in the top part. Please read the question before you answer. PS. That is a really rude response, from it I can see that I'm not the only one who should "grow up".

She whinges and cries until around 8-9pm. I go upstairs about 5-10 times and give her the dummy and put her covers back on. She IS tired as if I don't put her to bed she walks aroung the living room crying and rubbing her eyes. 11.30pm she wakes and we go through the same thing again. It gets to about 2am and I end up giving her medised as I cant cope any more. Last night I brought her in our bed. She stopped crying but didnt go to sleep and climbed all over us. Then I put her back in bed about 3.30am and she went to sleep. 6-7am she wakes up, Daddy gets up for work, gives her a bottle of milk (she drinks it herself in the cot) and goes back to sleep. 8am up for the day. This has only been happening the last 4 or 5 days. I am also 5 weeks pregnant and I can't keep this up much longer. I am so tired and I get so stressed at night, I'm scared it will make me lose the baby if I am so rundown and stressed, then I get cross with her because Im scared she will cause me to lose the baby. She is upstairs screaming now. My friend says she sounds like a wildcat and he's right, she does. I can sort of leave her cry it out at bedtime but it still gets really annoying and I end up going up there. I shouldnt be running up an down the stairs all night and getting stressed and upset when I'm pregnant, but my hubby is self employed and goes out evenings lining up work as he is actually at work during the day. By the time he gets home she is asleep. Its also causing tension as he keeps saying she is exhausting us and do we really want another baby aswell. Now I'm worried he doesnt want the new baby because my daughter is so stressful which also makes me cross with her. I love her so much but I don't know how much more of this I can take, and I don't want to lose my baby. Any advice on how to get her to bed easily and stay asleep all night. Or even to settle if she wakes in the night, and not cry for 3-4 hours each night. I dont want her in my bed so I wont bring her in with us. She's too wriggly and I cant sleep as Im scared she'll fall out of bed and fall down the stairs! Sorry for going on so long, I'm at the end of my wits. My next step after trying your advice is to ring Supernanny, she'll sort her out! xxxxxxxxx She's gone quiet now, that was quick, only 40 mins! Until 11:30pm when we'll be awake until 2-3am. Please please please let her sleep tonight Good point Donna, she has 1 half hour nap in the day xx more

Resolved Question: bed time problems. cant get 2yr old to stay in bed.?

I have a huge problem with my 2 year old (3 in February), we always let him watch dvds, and for a quiet life we would leave them on all night, so if he woke up he would stay in bed (he has always been a bad sleeper) Well I decided it was time he learned to sleep without the dvd, so after an hour, or him falling asleep which ever comes first, I have started turning the dvd off, but when he wakes a few hours later he screams and shouts, and has now figured out how to climb over his safety gate, so when he gets up at 2am when we are in bed he will go into the living room and go to sleep on the sofa. He has done this for several nights now, and I have tried just putting him back to bed but he just screams for his dvd. I have finally had enough and have put something against the hall door so he can't get into the living room, or anywhere else, but I don't feel this can be a long term solution as I wouldn't be able to hear him if something happened. I have tried putting him back to bed over and over without saying a word to him, we tried that for about 2 weeks with no change. We tried letting him scream, he just made himself sick. We tried rewards for sleeping, and punishments, like no cartoons the next day if he stays up, but he doesn't care and it makes no difference. I'm now considering getting one of those hook latches that keep the door open a little, but I don't really like the idea of locking him in his room. I'm lost, and tired, help. more

Resolved Question: My boyfriend has trouble sleeping with me?

Basically I breath heavily, and move around a lot. I am someone who falls asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow, where it takes him a while to get settled and comfortable before falling asleep. Because he is such a light sleeper and I am a heavy sleeper, it just doesn't work for him and he has a lot of problems sleeping with me. Although we do not live together yet, whenever we are at each others place, he has to sleep alone in the bed or in a separate room in order to get a good nights rest. Will he eventually get used to sleeping with me, or is this atypical for couples and we are most likley doomed to sleep in separate rooms forever? more

Resolved Question: How do I get my 14 month old baby to sleep better?

Her sleeping patterns are a mess. She keeps a fairly regular schedule during the day: Wake at 7 or 8 am Breakfast 9 am Lunch 12noon Nap 3 pm - 45 min to an hour (without bottle) Dinner 6 or 7 pm Bed/Bottle around 9 pm She is 14 months old and has never slept through the night. She wakes twice a night for a bottle, and up to now I've fed on cue. She goes down intially with a bottle easily, but within an hour she consistently wakes back up (since she was 3 months old). She needs to be rocked back to sleep but it is very difficult this time to get her to go back to sleep - sometimes it takes an hour, if at all: at least 3-4 times a week she will eventually wake up completely! Whatever I do, whether I give up and return with her back to the living room or whether I keep trying to get her back to sleep, we'll be up for at least another 3 hours. She will scream and cry and fight us but the only thing that finally exhausts her enough to fall back to sleep is by crying and the parents end up frazzled and frustrated and angry! She also wakes frequently during the night in addition to the two bottles, and will spend much of the night tossing and turning and keeping me awake. It is not teething pain, she has been a very restless sleeper since her very early days. Also, since she was about 13 months she dropped two hours of total night sleep and now only sleeps 10 hrs at night plus one daytime nap of an hour at most. Surely this isn't enough sleep for a baby her age? She doesn't seem tired during the day, in fact she is rather hyperactive. I read somewhere the warning signs of babies who might have ADHD, and my baby meets 7 out of 8 signs. As both my husband and myself have ADHD ourselves, this is of concern to me. Anyone remember these kind of sleeping difficulties with your ADHD children? I haven't slept a good night's rest in 2 years and I am getting desperate. I'm apologize if my letter is incoherent and rambling. more

Resolved Question: I keep hearing scuffing sounds coming from my living room and hallway as if sumones rubbin there feet across?

last night i awoke to a loud sound, i had fallen asleep in the living room waiting for my laundry to finish, I can't really explain the sound i heard but i do it suddenly awoke me. I had the blanket's over my head so i couldn't really see anything after a few minutes i heard something brushing against my mom's plants and than scuffing sounds going up and down the living room and hallway, i tried to ignore the sounds and say i was just imagining them but i wasn't. finally the sounds stopped and after about 10 minutes i heard a loud sound come from the kitchen i would of ran to my moms room but i had to past the kitchen to get there, still with the blankets over me and shocked that i was the only one in the house hearing these sounds ( my family happens to be heavy sleepers btw) i would just take a deep breath and pray that it would stop, well soon enough i heard something run down the hallway and stop at the air conditioner and all of a sudden the air conditioner went off..about 5 minutes i would say went by and i felt something hovering over me like looking down on me adn than felt something touch my shoulder i threw the blankets off and ran to my sisters room awakening her by me screaming her name and shaking and crying i than found out that the sounds started happening around 3 am. why did this happen? more

Voting Question: All of a sudden, im having toddler sleeping troubles at night!! I need help?

Hello all, im a mother of one. A two year old girl, she just turned two end of october. Shes always been a good sleeper, from about 7 months old she was sleeping through the night. At 18 months she was in a single bed, always in her own room. (I live at home with my parents). All of a sudden, probably the last 2 weeks, i have had soo much trouble, JUST at night, getting her to sleep. Before these past weeks, soon as 8pm hit, she would have some milk, say goodnight, brush teeth and be in bed. I give her hugs and kisses, say goodnight, door was shut, and she'd be asleep in 5 minutes. BUT the last two weeks have been hell. For everyone!! I tell her its bedtime, and she screams. She wants her bottle, and to take it everyone. (She has like a toddler bottle to have her milk in at night before bed.) And then i litterally have to like force her into bed. She will get in, with encouragement but soon as i take one step away from the bed she has this like terrified, blood curdling cry. It breaks my heart, its like a spider is crawling up her arm. I dont know why she does it. I ask why, and every night i get a different answer as to what is scaring her. Ive taken out about 5 random things she is asking me to remove and still it happens. I admit now, the last 2 months i have moved her room, i put her bed in a different spot and she wasnt sleeping well as it was closer to the window and she could hear the birds in the morning so she woke earlier. But i put the room back to its original state, a few things different (like ornaments and such) but otherwise its fine.(i kno they say its bad to move around and infants room but she never had any major issues) Shes ALWAYS had a night light, enough light to see everything in the room. When she first started this, and even now, i tried everything. Lamp on/lamp off, door open.door closed, fan on/fan off. (as its summer here in australia). I had a feeling it might be the heat as her room gets quiet hot now days, but she has never had any other issues. I try tell her stories and make up things to what noices are outside when she states "loud puppy outside". My dad has sat in with her for an hour trying to calm her down, but she gets soo worked up. My mother interfers a little and goes and picks her up and then mucks around. I dont want her to get used to us being on call. She cries-we come. I dont want that. Im a firm believer in stuff like that. But these days, she gets soo worked up and is up till 1030 crying and carrying on, ive had to just give her a bottle of milk in bed to calm her down. Sometimes gets her to sleep but sometimes not. Last night i had to as we were out and she didnt sleep much, so i wasnt up for a terrible night of fighting her to sleep. Im soo utterly confused. As during the day, she goes to bed and she is gone, asleep within 5 minutes. So its not like soemthing in there is scaring her. I dunno if this is something to do with the "terrible twos" but it was just like BAM one night, and then onwards she played up. Her cry is heart breaking, but at this stage im letting her cry, she stands at her door crying and calling me, but i dont want her getting all the attention from having a cry. And its literally wearing me out. Used to be relieved for night time so i could have a relax now i dread it cause i wonder if there will be a fight with her to go to sleep. Also if it means anything, she is toilet training, she wears undies during the day, all day, and just nappies for nap and night sleep. I dont know if that has anything to do with it, i did think it for a second, but just letting people know! Please anybody give me some pointers or things to do. Even if its personal experience or if ppl wants to list things that might be scaring her or anything. Feel free to ask me anything if u need more info, im just at a standstill.! thankyou more

Voting Question: My dog barks a lot and keeps waking up my baby?

I have an almost five-year-old pomeranian. I love him so much and he's part of the family. He barks like crazy. He barks when the phone rings, when someone passes by our door (we live in an apartment), when someone knocks, when someone new comes, etc, for everything. Before, my baby used to be a really deep sleeper, but now that she sleeps less because she's eight-months old and is more active, she wakes up easily. Even if I put my dog on the extreme side of the apartment, he barks loud because he's alone in a room and wakes her up. But if I don't put him away, he'll bark when my cell or phone ring or at the door and the noise would be closer to the baby. We went on a two week vacation and my mom kept him and hasn't brought him back because she wants to give the baby some rest to adjust. I need to bring him back but I need a solution to his problem. Thanks. more
