Q. What is Bipolar disorder? What is Bipolar disorder? Just i want to compare the symptoms with me. Is there any one here who really cares about me? Am i lonely?

A. ... up on the couch with her and cry too. It is a very helpless feeling for your loved ones to not have the answers and to be aware that at times there is nothing they can do or say to help you feel better. For me it was a long learning process, as my partner learned more about her illness i learned more and learned ways to cope with it. You are not alone in your struggle with bipolar disorder, you are already reaching out to others that truly understand what you are going through. Try to keep in mind that the people in your life who are not bipolar can never truly understand but they can learn about the illness and about how they can help you. Try teaching them what you learn, try to share your feelings and what goes on in your head, knowledge is power and the more you share the more they will understand. Just a thought...

Q. What are wisdom teeth? Why so many people talk about them and suffer from them?

A. Wisdom teeth are the third and final set of molars that most people get in their late teens or early twenties. Sometimes these teeth can be a valuable asset to the mouth when healthy and properly aligned, but more often, they are misaligned and require removal. Wisdom teeth present potential problems when they are misaligned – they can position themselves horizontally, be angled toward or away from the second molars or be angled inward or outward. Poor alignment of wisdom teeth can crowd or damage adjacent teeth, the jawbone, or nerves. Wisdom teeth that lean toward the second molars make those teeth more vulnerable to decay by entrapping plaque and debris. In addition, wisdom teeth can be entrapped completely within the soft tissue and/or the jawbone or only partially break through or erupt through the gum.
