Can my parents legally make me go to treatment for bulimia? Help, please!?

Question : Can my parents legally make me go to treatment for bulimia? Help, please!?
I’m 17 years old. My parents found out that I purge after eating. They sent me to see a therapist (who doesn’t even specialize in Eating Disorders), and after finding out I’ve been doing this over two years, she made me attend an outpatient program for two weeks. I didn’t “improve” so they’re making me go to an inpatient program in another state?!? I’m a senior in high school, I will be 18 in July, I only have a few months of school left- I don’t want to spend these best months of my life in a treatment center away from my friends.
How can I make them stop?! I tried to express my concerns but no one would hear it- not even my therapist!!! I’m not even bulimic, I barely have any problem, sure I throw up sometimes but does that make it ok to do this to me?!
Do I legally have to go to this center? Do I have any other options?
Thank You.

How do you fix your teeth without veneers?

Question : How do you fix your teeth without veneers?
I use to grind my teeth when I was little, so now the bottom of my teeth aren’t straight cause little parts are chipped. Is there anyway to fix it without veneers? I just don’t want to replace them after. Is there anyway to fix them permanently?
I’m not grinding my teeth anymore…
teeth veneers
Best answer:
Answer by Julia T
There is nothing permanent in dentistry. You can have resin veneers done which are much cheaper than porcelain veneers. You can have a re-contouring (re-shaping) done if it is just little chipped areas. One thing you need to be sure of is that you are still not grinding your teeth. If you are you will need a nightguard to sleep in to help with grinding.
Go to your dentist and have a consult done of the area you want to fix. Get several different suggestions. Don’t just settle for one way to fix the problem. You will need to know what the costs are as well. If you have insurance…it is unlikely insurance will cover any costs as this is all considered cosmetic.
Best wishes.
Has anyone used the summer brand fetal heart monitor?

Question : Has anyone used the summer brand fetal heart monitor?
I am 17 and a half weeks pregnant and I bought the summer brand fetal heart monitor at babies r us today. I tried to use it and heard mostly loud, annoying static and once I got it to quiet down while pressed against my belly i still couldn’t hear much of anything. I am just wondering if anyone else has used this product successfully. I know I am still about 8 weeks early for when they suggest to start using it for best results but I am sort of curious about if it will even work then.

Answer by Army wife & Gabriel’s mommy
Its not always easy to pick up the heart beat with those things! I’ve got the summer brand monitor and I only got it once.. My baby was also very active and never sat still long enough for me to find the heartbeat.. But it can be tricky to find it and pick it up! Just keep trying! You might eventually have luck!
Any dental discount plans or insurance that covers orthodontics for adults?

Question : Any dental discount plans or insurance that covers orthodontics for adults?
I am 22 and am planning on getting braces for my bilateral crossbite in January or February. In the meantime, I’m wanting to see if there are any dental discount plans or insurance that covers orthodontics for adults. I have dental insurance through Delta Dental, but they only cover braces for children to 19. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Answer by MARIE G
Medical Discount Plan
ideal for those who cannot afford or qualify for traditional health insurance. The companies offer discounted health services for a quite low monthly fee. Benefits include a range of discounts for doctors, hospitals, dental, vision, prescriptions, vitamins, as well as other health services.
Individual & Family Health Plans
This is a major health insurance plan for individuals and families. If you are looking for comprehensive long term health insurance coverage for yourself and/or your family members who are 62 years old or younger – this is the plan to choose.
Short Term Medical Plans
This plan is ideal for individuals in transition. Maybe you have just graduated from college and are no longer covered under your student health insurance or you moved out on your own, and you’re no longer covered under your parents’ medical insurance plan. Or perhaps you’re employed part-time, going to school, leaving home for the first time, or even retiring early. Maybe you’ve found a new job, but your new employer’s group health insurance plan won’t kick in until you’ve been with months.
YOu are not the only person who have ever met this kind of problem,I met this type of problem before.I have good experience here www.HealthInsuranceFree.info to solve the problem.
Super ANTIOXIDANT Smoothie for “Eating Disorder Rehab”

eating disorder rehabilitation
shanlarter.com Hey! Thanks for stopping by for another video in my “Eating Disorder Rehab” SMOOTHIE SERIES where I share some of my FAVOURITE smoothies with you that were such a powerful and healing part of my own Eating Disorder Rehab. Confused over the word “antioxidant”? Hear it everywhere and wonder what the heck is the big deal about antioxidants anyway? Well here are a few points to clear the mental fog (LITERALLY!) – Antioxidants is really just a fancy term for “vitamins and minerals that combat free-radicals” – Some well known antioxidants are Vitamin A, Vitamin B-6, Vitamin B-12, Beta carotene, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Selenium, Folic Acid. – Some powerful fruit sources of antioxidants are: prunes, raisins, blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, plums, oranges, apples, red grapes and cherries. – Some powerful veggie sources of antioxidants are: kale, spinach, Brussels sprouts, broccoli florets, beets, onions. – Its important to combat free radicals because most scientists believe that: free radicals are responsible for weakened immune systems, arthritis, heart trouble, stroke, cancer, and even wrinkled dry skin. Many researchers are proving the link between basic ageing and low antioxidant levels as a ’cause and effect relationship’ suggesting that we can slow down the ageing clock LITERALLY just by eating hefty amounts of antioxidants in our daily food intake. – the BEST source of antioxidants is fresh, uncooked, organic fruits and veggies. Even many …
