Basically, I've been having a little trouble with a few thing since June. Mainly my weight and how busy I am (because I'm a dancer) and I was struggling a little. 2 of my friends got a bit worried about me and went to my guidance teacher about me, and we had a little chat but I sort of went into shock that they had noticed something wrong that I denied everything.

Anyway for some reason after they went to him, everything got worse and worse until now where I'm really not myself. I went to my guidance teacher yesterday about some of it (the less serious stuff) and he told me he was phoning home about it, so I didn't want to say anymore.

I don't think I'm in any great danger of harming myself or anything, I'm just really not myself at all.

Do you think things will die down when I'm less busy or do you think I should try and speak to someone else. My family isn't an option.

Any help/advice you could give would be amazing. Thank you!

I'm 16, 5 foot 8 and just under 8 and a half stone. I am slim you could say but I'm a dancer, and feel I should be thinner. Every website I look at tell me different things and I don't know what to believe. Can I afford to lose more weight? Am I an average weight?

Thank yooooou

I was just lying here in bed and I started to get the sudden feeling of burning on my scalp. It was slightly to the left of the crown of the head and it never traveled down my neck or particularly hurt too much, but I've been getting bad head aches for a while now and this has been the weirdest feeling I have ever felt and like something is not right. Has anyone experienced this before? Does anyone know what is causing it? Any advice is greatly appreciated

Thank you:)

School at this time of the year is stressful for everyone I know, but with school and many other commitments after school everything is getting a bit much. The main thing I'm worrying about is that I have my final music practical exam on Wednesday, and I get ridiculously nervous about it (which my teacher knows but does really care I don't think) and Ive tried to talk to my year head about it but he just went to my music teacher and I do not want to bother her anymore. I get the feeling she really doesn't like me, and I also think that is making things worse. She is definitely not someone who you can easily talk to!! I'm not really sleeping at night just now, not just because of music, but it's one of the main reasons, and it's getting exhausting now. Should I try to talk to her.. Or someone else? Or should I not bother? I totally understand how it won't sound like a big deal to anyone else other than me, so that's why I'm just not sure if I should bother anyone with it? I'm sorry to bother you and I'm sorry this question is so long!! Thank you:)

I'm having some trouble just now with school stress, but in particular music. My final exam is next week and I have to preform 2 instruments, and I get SOOO nervous about performing that i go all shaky and I hyperventalate. My teacher knows this, but as the exams getting closer I'm getting more nervous and not sure if I should talk to her about it or not. I honestly don't think the teacher likes me all that much so I don't want to annoy her more, and I don't really know if she'll be able to do anything to help. Should I have a word with her about it, and how should i go about talking to her?? Thank you!!

My dancing are having a secret Santa this year and the theme is shapes. With my luck, I picked out a triangle so I now have to find 3 gifts triangle shaped. AND to make it even harder its only Ment to be £5.. But I don't mind going slightly over. Just not alot.. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated thanks x

P.s toblarones don't count apparently :(

So basically, I've been doing classical ballet dancing since I was 3 years old and it's always Been my favourite style of dance. recently, I've been given chances to dance at some amazing places to do ballet but also some hip hop and jazz classes but every time I dance these classes I look stupid! I do everything with the posture of a ballarina. Have anyone got any tips that might help me fit in a bit more in hip hop and jazz classes?

Thanks xx

I'm 15 and have had my periods for a couple of year. They've always been quite light and easy to Handel but recently they've been very heavy! As a dancer I find hard to hide the fact I'm on my period if its heavy. Also I have a major ballet class on Sunday with a bunch of people I don't know so really need them to be lighter and not leak etc. by the way they started yesterday and I don't use tampons!

I'm a 13 year old grade 6 (nearly 7) ballet puipl and got my first pair of pointe shoes over a year ago. I do regular classes every week but still my pointe shoes don't seem to be braking in. Its making things really hard too do. Is there anyway I can brake thim in faster? X

I have an important party in 2 weeks and I really want my hair down curly. It would look much better if it was longer though. Is there anyway it can grow even just a little bit more in the next 2 weeks?
