- Try to stretch after waking up and before going to bed - try the yoga Sun Salutation sequence or The Five Tibetans. It is especially benefical if you spend a lot of time in front of your pc. - When faced with seemingly insourmountable problems, try to break them down in very, very small and achievable steps. Only concentrate fully at one step at a time - you dont have to everything at once but only the very small step right in front of you. And afterwards, the next small step. And the next... All of your problems combined may push you down, but a small fracture of it, you can handle. - Make a list of all the things you managed to achieve in the past and remember them when you are faced with a new problem. - Set yourself a little goal you can achieve within a day (like cleaning up) and a big one you will need considerably more time (like learning a language). If you can achieve the little one and take a small step toward the big one, you know that your day has not been in vain. | ||

I will start, to set the pace. 1-Make sure if your girlfriend/wife is going to the dentist: She reminds him more than 10 times that she's on birth control and to not give her an anti-biotic shot. It will completely neutralize the BC. yes i know it's random but that is the intention of the thread, if no one contributes ill just make a list on OP. . . + Show Spoiler + or a mod will close this thread T.T hmm, most new studies seem to say that antibiotics probably don't affect bc as much as we thought. Can antibiotics decrease the effectiveness of birth control pills? The effects of antibiotics on birth control pills may be overstated — except in the case of one antibiotic, rifampin. Studies clearly show that rifampin decreases the effectiveness of birth control pills in preventing ovulation. However, rifampin isn't a widely used antibiotic. Chances are you wouldn't be taking it unless you had tuberculosis or had tested positive for the disease. Hypothetically speaking, other antibiotics, particularly penicillin and tetracycline derivatives, could impair the effectiveness of birth control pills. However, no large studies have proved such an effect. Researchers can't rule out the possibility that a small percentage of women may experience decreased effectiveness of birth control pills while taking an antibiotic. And if you're taking a newer, extremely low-dose oral contraceptive, you could be more susceptible to these potential effects from antibiotics. If you're concerned, consider using a barrier method of contraception for the duration of your antibiotic prescription. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/birth-control-pill/WO00098 | ||
