Hey everyone! I'm 17 years old and ever since I was a wee 11 years old, my period has been 5 days long, with a 28 day cycle. However, my period has come a full week early this month, and the only thing I've changed is that I've started to masturbate. Could this have triggered my period to come early? Should I stop if it's going to mess up my cycle? Thanks!

I had a big cavity filled on Monday. Dentist said it might still be sore...Well I didn't feel much the first night but the next day it did hurt when I bit on something. I ate pretty carefully for the rest of the week but I did eat on that side of my mouth. ..Yesterday in the evening it started to hurt! I had to take an advil.. and I was careful with it again today but this evening it is hurting again. Feels like a tooth when you have sensitivity and cold has been put on it..but it's not dissapating and I'm taking my second advil today. Do you think it should still hurt? Maybe I chewed on it too soon and it will be sensitive for a few more days? I have read that it could be up to 2 weeks hurting and some people say no it should not hurt. .I would call the dentist but they are not open till monday. Anyone know???
Thanks!

Please, don't call me psychotic. I just need some advice as to where to go from here. I'm currently 14 and female (in case you couldn't tell by the name or photo ;) ).
I think I remember things really starting when I was 11.
But ever since I was little, I would love to see the hospital scenes on the TV. Like if someone was in the hospital, I always wanted to see it. In fact, I would sometimes (and even up until recently did) make up scenes where a certain character I favour is saving the day and ends up injured or something like that and everyone pays attention to him/ her.
But I also remember this starting when I was 11: I would always make up stories in my head where I was the victim. It got worst when I was probably 12 or 13. I would complain over minor things to people whose attention I 'craved'. For example, if I got a sore wrist, I'd wear a tensor bandage. Or if my knee hurt, I'd go get ice, even though it was probably just a growing pain. Most of the time it was in my head though. Like thinking about what it would be like if I had to tell a certain person I had cancer or something.
At the age of 13 (in my summer before 8th grade) I decided this is enough. I have to stop this type of thinking. It is not normal. I read that building your self confidence could help. So I tried that and within hiurs, the fantasies had no more appeal.
Before I continue, you should note that I like these fantasies, they're not something I exactly dread. But when I'm making up one of the stories in my head, I really enjoy it. I do dislike the fact that I enjoy it and I am aware that this is not normal.
But despite my confidence efforts, they came back. One slip up where I said "It's okay, it's been a bad day, you can think about one of your stories" leads to two, which leads to three and sooner or later I'm back to the abnormal fantasies.
I was doing really well since I started high school in September. I had maybe a few days where they came back. And once in a while where they had little or no appeal. But a week ago I felt like I was going to pass out in class one day, I didn't tell anyone until that evening but after that they came back. I am currently in a state where they are somewhat appealing to me.
So I once asked this question on an alternate account. (This is also an alternate account, my friends cannot see this question, but I will still choose a best answer). One girl said she was 21 and still had these types of fantasies. I was thinking I could still live with them, but I realize I shouldn't.
I have dreams for my future. My job, my family, all that stuff. But when I think about it I don't want that perfect future I have planned to be plagued with these sick thoughts. I don't want to have them. It makes me feel embarassed to even think about myself. I can't confront anybody about it because I am so ashamed. I know I should see a therapist of some sort, but 1. I don't know how I'd approach him/ her 2. I don't know how to ask my mom about that or how to keep it private and 3. I don't want to be said to be mentally unstable or something and be put in a mental institution.
So what would be advisable to do from here?

He's my mom's brother and we can't visit him because he is in Portugal and were in Canada. My aunt from Portugal flew out to visit him yesterday and he hasn't been eating much in the past month, lost A LOT of weight, can't talk or move a lot and they cut his stomach open last night.
I'm really scared cause even though we weren't too close to him we spent a lot of time with him and I'm scared he might die!
Can someone tell me what the doctors will most likely do and if he has a high chance of dying ? He's only 45.

I have already paid over $100 on the first appointment and the medicine I received didn't even help me at all. I'm wondering if I'm going to have to pay again.
Also, have you had any experience with naturopathic doctors? How effective do you feel their treatments are?
