Question by mysterygirl: Films about teens caught up in drugs and alcohol?
Im going to be playing a role of a teenage girl (mid-late teens) who is neglected and a bit abused (not physically or sexually or anything!) and she turns to drugs and alcohol to “help”. I already saw 13, and i think that was a really good movie, especially for something to relate to. I was wondering if anyone knew any other movies like that, not comedies though, def. dramas. but, it can be a bit of a feel good movie at times. any suggestions would be great! thanks a ton!

Question by Angie F.: Wha is STRESS, what are the causes, and how can we deal with it??
i heard that everybody can get stress, even little kids..
why does this happen? please help!
Best answer:
Answer by Carole
Many things (or the anticipation of them) can lead to stress.
Here are some examples…
pressure to perform at work or at school
threats of physical violence
money worries
arguments
family conflicts
divorce
bereavement
unemployment
moving house
marriage
Often there is no particular reason for developing stress, and it’s caused by a build-up of a number of small things.
Stress can be caused by a range of common situations. However, people have very different responses to stress. For some people, stress can be useful, helping motivate them to achieve more. In others, particularly if it goes on for a long period of time, it causes a sense of not being able to cope.
It’s important to differentiate between temporary stress that you know will go away when a situation is resolved, and long-term or chronic stress. Most people can cope with short periods of stress. Chronic (long-term or continuous) stress is much harder to deal with, and can be psychologically and emotionally damaging, both for you and your friends and family.
Symptoms
Everyone reacts to stress differently, but there are some common effects to look out for. In times of extreme stress, people may tremble, hyperventilate (breathe faster and deeper than normal) or even vomit. For people with asthma, stress can trigger an asthma attack. People who are chronically stressed may have:
periods of irritability or anger
apathy or depression
constant anxiety
irrational behaviour
loss of appetite
comfort eating
lack of concentration
loss of sex drive
increased smoking, drinking, or taking recreational drugs There can also be physical effects, which may include the following:
excessive tiredness
skin problems, such as eczema
aches and pains resulting from tense muscles, including neck ache, backache and tension headaches
increased pain from arthritis and other conditions
heart palpitations
feeling sick
stomach problems
for women, missed periods
Post-traumatic stress
Post-traumatic stress can affect anyone who has been through an extremely difficult or violent experience, such as witnessing a violent death or disaster, being involved in a serious car crash, or surviving a fire.
People suffering from post-traumatic stress may experience any of the symptoms listed. They may also feel a mixture of emotions such as fear, shame, depression, guilt or anger, and recurrent memories or images that may be haunting or lead to nightmares. These feelings can last for weeks, months or even years after the traumatic event that triggered them. Specialist treatment, possibly with medicines and psychological therapies, is available.
Self-help
Here are some ways you can help yourself to deal better with stress:
take regular exercise – even if you are not sporty, brisk walking for 30 minutes every day can be a very effective stress buster
delegate or share your responsibilities at work – making yourself indispensable can be a major source of problems
learn to be more assertive – for example, not agreeing to things you know you can’t do well or know shouldn’t be your responsibility
don’t drink too much alcohol or take drugs – these will not help you to cope better and may make you ill
don’t drink too much caffeine
try to eat a healthy, balanced diet, rich in fruit and vegetables
set aside some time to organise yourself
find some quiet time to listen to music or relaxation tapes
learn breathing techniques – this can help you to “centre” yourself and slow down
A good way to tackle stress is to talk to your friends or family – sharing your thoughts and worries can help It’s important to talk directly to your manager if you are suffering from work-related stress. Your manager has a duty to take reasonable steps to try to resolve the problem.
If stress is causing physical symptoms, severe distress or making it difficult for you to function as normal, it’s worth seeing your doctor. It’s important to remember that although stress is a usual part of life, extreme or prolonged stress can be harmful and needs treatment.
Your doctor will be able to spot the physical symptoms of stress. In case there are physical reasons for your symptoms, the doctor may also want to do some tests to exclude certain conditions. He or she may also help you identify the things that are causing your stress and give advice on learning techniques to help you relax.
Answer by pilsbury_dough_gurl
there are two kids of stress. distress and eustress. Eustress is a type of short-term stress that provides immediate strength. Eustress arises at points of increased physical activity, enthusiasm, and creativity. Eustress is a positive stress that arises when motivation and inspiration are needed. Like you are stressed about a test so u study harder and u get a good grade.Distress is a negative stress brought about by constant readjustments or alterations in a routine. Distress creates feelings of discomfort and unfamiliarity. Makes u upset, nervous, you feel more phsycial symptoms assoicated with stress like stomach aches, headaches, sweats, irritablity. Acute stress is intense but disappears and Chronic is stress that occurs over a long period of time.
We stress becuase we worry. Its in our capacity to worry to want things one way to be use to a routine. WHen things arent how they should be or how we think they should be we worry, become angry about it, mourn it and expereicne the physical symptoms of stress.
Ways to de-Stress
What sometimes happens during stress is people start to have symptoms of anxiety or panic. best way to deal with these symptoms is to start using coping skills on the onset of the symptom. Try deep breathing maybe try the 478 breathing technique where u push your tongue to the roof of your mouth breathin for 4 hold for 7 and breath out for 8. When you breath out breathe out slowly and u should hear a whoooshhhing sound. If the same things stress you out try better planning for predictable stressors like if tests make u stressed pay attention to the syllubus join a study group or stay on top of your notes so that u wont stress as much. Family stressors try removing yourself from the sitaiton for a lil while take soem deep breaths and go back and talk about it and resolve the issues once everyone is calm. GOOD LUCK

Question by Victor: What is that one south park episode where cartman smears poop on the wall ?
He gives the kid a color pallete to see what color poo he wanted on the wall
Best answer:
Answer by CandieBarr
“My Future Self n’ Me”, season 6, episode 16. he gives the pallets to Stan and Butters but only Butters goes through with it.
Answer by Alberto Ruiz gonzales
Actually the chapter you want, exactly is called: “My Future Self n ‘Me” is Chapter 16 of south park season 6, in Chapter stan “touches marijuana cigarette” in a forest and later in the night comes “your future self” as a lazy drug addict, alcoholic, failed and from that day and decided not to have anything to do with drugs and alcohol, unfortunately “his future self” is left to live in their home and his life becomes a living hell, with stan butters after discovering that everything was a hoax created by parents with the help of “motivation corp” (an organization dedicated to solving republican addiction problems of children, adults using like their children to help them with their problems) and pissed, are seeking revenge, they discover a “Parental Revenge Center” hotline with guaranteed results, so they decide to give it a try ,The address leads them to an office in a grungy alley, where they discover that the founder and proprietor of the business is Cartman. Cartman agrees to help the two, but Stan is skeptical. Sadly, Cartman’s revenge plan for both boys involves going to both of their houses to smear all of the walls with feces. Butters is delighted by this offer and gladly accepts it, while Stan believes that it isn’t adequate payback. Cartman then tries to convince Stan by taking it up a notch and offering to kill his parents and slice them into pieces. Stan refuses this offer as well, and decides to worm the truth out of his parents himself in order to force them to acknowledge they lied to him, Meanwhile, the Parental Revenge Agency does its job at Butters’ house as Cartman and a group of Hispanic day workers smear feces all over the living room and bedroom of the Stotch Household. Upon returning home, Chris and Linda actually acknowledge that they deserve it for lying and finally tell the truth about the “future self thing” and apologize to Butters, which surprises Stan, seeing that Cartman’s plan for Butters to get revenge on his parents has really worked, here I leave the links to the pages you see, along with the link of the chapter for you to enjoy, I hope I have resolved your question.┌∩┐(^_^)┌∩┐
