Quote From: qtpie09

     let me just say that i don't know if this is where i should have asked this or not but it looks good to me.  anyways, i am 15 and i have an acne problem.  its not terrible but enough for me to worry about.  thank God i am a girl so i can some what cover it with makeup but what i want to do is get rid of it forever. i know i will have breakouts and stuff but i don't want zits all the time.  i use proactive but i have used it for a few years and it doesn't work that well any more.  does anyone have any suggestions?
 Well I certainly could suggest a few things that I hope could work for you. I do as well get break outs and especially around that time of month. I am very much into herbs and nutrition and I would try to get a hold of some "Tea Tree Oil"(from the tea trees of Australia), which is an anti fungal/anti viral and many other benefits to this product. Look in a local nutrition center and ask around. Also to try to exercise daily because acne is secreted by hormones in your body and when you exercise it stabilizes those hormones. Try to also do facial steaming with some rosemary(simply boil a pot of water with some rosemary, hold a towel over your head and hover over the steaming water). Also to watch your eating habits, good nutrition counts. Lots of good fats to keep skin healthy(omega 3'rs) and lots of protein to rebuild structure, cells, muscle, and help strengthening. Remember we do heal from the inside out so keep healthy and strong. I hope that will help, we are all different and have different body's so certain things will work for some than others.

I feel your pain i don;t have that bad of acne but this summer my skin went crazy like it never did before!! I never want to go out anymore. My mother and grandmother keep asking me about it like there is something i can do. it really hurts my feelings i don;t think i would care if everyone around me would stop making a big deal about it and acting like it has to go away for me to be beautiful. People at work  make fun of me because of my skin they are like 40 too they should know better!!
 Get a hold of some Tea Tree Oil from a local health food store and perhaps dilute it with a little pure vitamin E oil(if you can not find the oil you can always get gel capsules and break it open). I hope it works.

I need Help

 I don't know who to turn to about this anymore, I am a volunteer firefighter and I also work 2 other jobs. I work really hard to live. I am an EMR, I could not however afford the ACP involved which is another $600 on top of it all. I have been striving to get my EMT, I can not afford this for it is about 9 grand to take this coarse. I have been bounced around every where for an answer, I have written the government and nothing has come out of this. Some were saying get a loan, but what they don't understand is that I can not afford to get a loan. I have tried for a grant but it is impossible. I don't know what to do? I guess too that it kills me to see that so many can get free money and do nothing while I am working really hard and receive not alot. Their are alot of people that get their education for free and living for free and so on...I need alot of prayers and maybe alittle advice, if any are reading this advice would be great..Thank you,

A Prayer Chain For All Prayers For All

Quote From: yesyoucan

Then, see if there's any show that relates to your situation. I know here periodically, and perhaps now, they'll have periods through U. S. Government with FREE training IF you work for Government for 2 to 3 years after completing training.

Not sure how things work in Canada. However, if y'all have employment agencies you might see if any government programs with FREE training.

Not sure if these are precise details. Yet, Dr. Phil paid the for the college of a young lady who's family, or someone, had given her a false identity (SS#) so she could live in USA. Dr. Phil and/or a Houston University provided full tuition and living accommodations on campus to attend college in Houston, TX., I believe. He did since young lady was so sad since she didn't know her true identity. Her SS# was for an elderly man, in Corpus Christi I believe, so when she applied for grants to attend college using erroneous SS# was unable to get grants. So...Dr. Phil has helped at least one person to have their dream of attending college. At least one of Dr. Phil's sisters is a nurse so medical field near and dear to Dr. Phil and his family's hearts...

You are right that there are not enough resources to help everyone get FREE $$$ and education etc. while others are able to so I can understand your pain. However, keep reaching out like you are here and do there, too. There are quite a few graduates in USA in HUGE debt due to college loans. Almost penalized for seeking a higher education while others get lucky and get all the breaks. Pretty much that is life. The key is to never give up. You might have to make a through detours in life yet, sometimes, you end up in a better place for it.

Prayers of blessing in route for you to be blessed all your life so remember the main ingredient... BELIEVING you will find what you need. So keep all your senses alert so you don't miss any opportunities. It is easy to get caught in a loop of hoping and wishing and praying and leave out main ingredient BELIEVING what you need WILL come your way or you'll be led there staying focused on SUCCEEDING. You can and if you believe you can YOU WILL!!!

Thanks for dropping by on a wing and a prayer. SEA, Dallas, TX, USA
 I think actually to many shows relate to me..lol..I have had a pretty bad life..I was very much abused in all directions when I was younger, We were a poor family(some days no food at all). My mom very Oblivious to many situations that happened, and very unclean atmosphere all the time. She even, after I had finally moved out when I was older, lived in animal fieces. Ya, I can relate to alot and I thank you for your reply perhaps I will see if someone like Dr.Phil would help, even though I live in Canada. Cause Ya, I have tried alot of different things here and it seems like I'm always hitting rock bottom..
