In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Brush your teeth immediately after smoking. If your smoking spot is outside and you have to cross your parents before getting into the bathroom, use chewing gum to freshen your breath. You can also hide the smell by eating something with a strong odor, like onions or garlic. Of course, if you go this route, you'll smell like onions or garlic, but that might be better than smelling like smoke. Using a strong scented soap, wash your hands as thoroughly as possible. If this is not enough, you can also use a scented moisturizer or scented hand sanitizer. You can also mask the scent on your hands by eating an orange. Peeling the orange will leave the juice and scent of oranges on your hands. You can clean any tar on your skin with rubbing alcohol. Isopropyl alcohol can be safely applied to skin. It will dry out your skin so be sure to have scented moisturizer with you as well. Your hair absorbs the smell of cigarette smoke because it is porous and absorbs the particles of smoke. This smell is retained for a long time. The only way to get the smell out of your hair is to take a shower and use a good shampoo. Using a coconut shampoo and scented hair styling product will help mask the smell.
Summary: Freshen your breath. Wash your hands. Use rubbing alcohol. Shampoo your hair.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If she doesn't know that you're bisexual or a lesbian, there's no way she'll be able to guess you like her. Once she knows, she's more likely to pick up on subtle cues that you're interested. If you're not out of the closet to her, you can casually say something that indicates your sexuality. You could mention an ex-girlfriend or say something like, "It feels so great to be able to be out at my new job." Sharing your orientation with her may prompt her to say something about her sexuality, but not necessarily. If you feel comfortable, you could say something like, "Do you think you could ever try being with a woman?" You may be dying on the inside, but try to keep a cool outside. You're still trying to get a feel for if she's interested or not. If you're too overwhelmed by your feelings, you won't be a very good observer of hers. Spend time with friends or doing activities that will take your mind off your crush. Don't put your friend on a pedestal. Focus on the things that make her humannot an idealized version of herself. The better you get to know her, the more you'll be able to read her feelings. This will also give her a chance to get to know (and like!) you better. Notice if she also initiates spending time together. If you're always the one to suggest hanging out, she might not be interested. Notice the quality of your time together. Are you always in a large group? Does she seem distracted by her phone or someone else? These could be signs that she's not feeling romantically toward you. People show their interest in a number of ways. Look for some classic behaviors that could indicate that she's into you. Friends aren't usually awkward around each other. So if she's acting shy or awkward around you, that could be a good sign. Does she text or message you just for fun? Does she remember little bits of your conversations and reference them? Does she do thoughtful little gestures for you? These are great indicators that she could have feelings for you. Find someone who is trustworthy. Even if you don't confess your crush, your mutual friend will probably get the idea. However, if you have a friend whom you know can keep a secret, ask for their advice. They might know more about your crush's dating history or current status. You can ask your mutual friend if they know more about your crush's sexual orientation. If you feel very comfortable, you can confess your crush and ask your mutual friend for advice. However, don't take anyone's advice too seriously. Always trust your own intuition.
Summary: Make your orientation clear. Keep your crush under control. Spend more time with her. Look for signs of interest. Ask a mutual friend.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If the person has already been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, then you may know all about the symptoms of this condition already. Bipolar disorder is characterized by periods of mania and depression. During manic phases, someone may seem to have boundless energy and during depressive phases, that same person might not get out of bed for days. Manic phases may be characterized by high levels of optimism or irritability, unrealistic ideas about one's abilities, feeling energetic despite getting little sleep, speaking rapidly and going quickly from one idea to the next, not being able to concentrate, making impulsive or poor decisions, and even hallucinating. Depressive phases are characterized by hopelessness, sadness, emptiness, irritability, losing interest in things, fatigue, lack of concentration, appetite changes, weight changes, difficulty sleeping, feeling worthless or guilty, and considering suicide. Bipolar disorder is divided into four subtypes. These definitions can help mental health practitioners to identify the disorder whether the symptoms are mild or severe. The four subtypes are: Bipolar I Disorder. This subtype is characterized by manic episodes that last for seven days or that are severe enough that the person needs hospitalization. These episodes are followed by depressive episodes that last at least two weeks. Bipolar II Disorder. This subtype is characterized by depressive episodes followed by mild manic episodes, but these episodes are not severe enough to warrant hospitalization. Bipolar Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (BP-NOS). This subtype is when someone has symptoms of bipolar disorder, but they do not meet the criteria for a bipolar I or II diagnosis. Cyclothymia. This subtype is when someone has had symptoms of bipolar disorder for two years, but the symptoms are mild. If you think that someone may be suffering from bipolar disorder, then you should say something. When you approach the person, make sure that you do so from a standpoint of concern and not judgment. Remember that bipolar disorder is a mental illness and the person cannot control their behaviors. Try saying something like, "I care about you and I have noticed that you have been struggling lately. I want to you to know that I am here for you and I want to help." Someone with bipolar disorder may feel comforted by having someone who is willing to listen to how they are feeling. Make sure that the person knows that you are happy to listen if they want to talk. When you listen, do not judge the person or try to solve their problems. Just listen and offer some genuine encouragement. For example, you might say something like, "It sounds like you have been having a really hard time. I don't know how you feel, but I care about you and I want to help you." The person may be incapable of making an appointment for themselves due to the symptoms of bipolar disorder, so one way that you can help is by offering to make a doctor's appointment. If the person is resistant to the idea of seeking help for the disorder, then do not try to force them. Instead, you may consider making an appointment for your the person to have a general health check-up and see if the person feels compelled to ask the doctor about the symptoms they have been having. If the person has been prescribed medications to help control their bipolar symptoms, then make sure that they take those medications. It is common for people with bipolar disorder to stop taking their medications because they feel better or because they miss having manic phases. Remind the person that the medications are necessary and that stopping them may make things worse. Even though there may be some improvement in the person's bipolar disorder after a few months of treatment, recovering from bipolar disorder can take years. There may also be setbacks along the way, so try to be patient with your the person as they recover. Supporting someone who has bipolar disorder can take a large toll on you, so make sure that you take time for yourself. Make sure that you have some time away from the person every day. For example, you might go to an exercise class, meet a friend for coffee, or read a book. You may also consider seeking counseling to help you deal with the stress and emotional strain of supporting someone with bipolar disorder.
Summary:
Watch for symptoms. Consider the differences in bipolar disorder types. Communicate your concerns. Offer to listen. Make a doctor's appointment. Encourage the person to take prescribed medications. Try to be patient. Take time for yourself.
