Problem: Article: A religious ceremony in Italy is only considered legally binding if it is in the Catholic Church. The priest who performs your ceremony will register your paperwork with the local town hall. If you have a religious ceremony at a different house of worship, then you will need to have an additional civil ceremony. Keep in mind that the Vatican is a separate state from Italy, so the same rules and regulations may not apply to a religious ceremony conducted there. The Catholic Church will not perform your wedding if either you or your spouse has been previously divorced in the Catholic Church. If you were previously married and divorced, but not in the Catholic church (i.e. your previous marriage was performed by a justice of the peace or in another faith), then you can get married in the Catholic church after filing a Lack of Form and paying a $50 fee to process it. If you wish to get married by the Catholic Church in Italy, you must produce certificates of your baptism, first communion and confirmation. These must be stamped by your local Bishop's office prior to coming to Italy. To get married in a Catholic church in Italy, you will need to provide a letter of Declaration from your local priest stating that you and your future spouse are active members of your church. This letter must be written on the letterhead of your parish to be considered valid. Your priest can also provide proof that you have completed any pre-cana classes with your spouse. The Bishop of your parish must provide a NHIL OBSTAT letter. This letter affirms that you have no impediment to getting married in the Catholic church in Italy. It should also include the name of the church in Italy and the date you intend to get married. The Bishop of your parish must also approve the Prenuptial Inquiry Form. This is a questionnaire issued by your archdiocese's office (not your local priest) and it asks a range of questions concerning your personal data and religious history. This form must also be written on parish letterhead and it must be signed and stamped by the Bishop's office. The Declaration from your priest and the NHIL OBSTAT and Prenuptial Inquiry Form from your Bishop must be sent in their original form for approval by the Italian Curia in order for you to have a Catholic wedding in Italy. However, most of these documents expire after three months. Send these no earlier than three months before your wedding but no later than one month before the date. Talk to the priest in Italy about the best address to send these documents to. You should send them with a tracking number provided by FedEx or a similar service. Most Italian churches will translate these documents for you into Italian. However, you should check with your priest in Italy to make sure they provide this service. If you are Catholic but your future spouse is not, you can still get married in the church, but your Bishop will need to include a stamped and signed "Permission of Mixed Religion" form along with other documentation.
Summary: Consider a Catholic ceremony. Obtain a letter of Declaration from your local priest for a Catholic wedding. Complete a Prenuptial Inquiry Form. Plan the timing of necessary documents.

Problem: Article: You should plan your everyday life so that you don't forget to take advantage of free time. It is important to take the time to enjoy yourself as this will help you cope better with the situation. Make time to be by yourself or go out with friends. Go see a movie with friends, create special hours of 'alone time', or get a massage every once in a while. Despite the fact that you are taking care of someone else, you should still keep your social life active. Keep in contact with friends, maintain your romantic relationship, and visit family when you have the chance. Having a good network of friends and family will help you to get through the tough days that will come along. Mental and physical health are linked. When your body is healthy, your mind and emotions can also be healthy. Get regular exercise and eat well-balanced meals. Exercising can also be a great way to lower stress or remove yourself from a tense situation. If you find yourself struggling to maintain your patience, go on a run or for a long walk. Yoga is great way to exercise both the mind and body. Enroll in a local yoga class and practice finding your inner calm. A support group is place where you get an opportunity to meet multitude of people who in various capacities are associated with people struggling with schizophrenia. It is a place where you can expect to be accepted as you are, where you can be extended unconditional support and where your situation is completely understood without any tagged-on stigma. Encourage your loved one to join a support group. On top of offering assistance to family members, support groups also help people with schizophrenia develop personal strengths and resilience, both of which are needed to combat this illness.
Summary: Take time to enjoy life. Maintain your social life. Exercise often and eat well. Join a support group.

Problem: Article: Suggest that your teen sit down and make a list of their positive characteristics. Ask them to think about what they like about themselves, what they think they offer other people, and what they think they are good at. Remind them not to listen to their inner critic during this time. Your teen may have trouble identifying that they have positive attributes. If they are struggling, help them come up with ideas. Ask questions that lead to them coming up with positives. For example, you may say, "What activities do you enjoy? Are you good at that? What do your friends like about you? What characteristics do you think are your strengths?" Buy your teen a new notebook and encourage them to keep a self-esteem journal. This journal is their private space to write about their accomplishments, compliments, successes, new experiences, and progress. Encourage them to spend five minutes each night writing about the day. Your teen can write down positive thoughts they have or times during the day when they felt good. Give them prompts, such as, "My accomplishment today was," "I had a good thought about myself when I thought," or "Today was good because I" If your teen's self-esteem is significantly impacting their life or causing depression and anxiety, you may want to suggest they go to therapy. Therapy can help your teen talk through issues, figure out what is causing their negative self-esteem, and how to cope and move past it. Your teen may benefit from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). CBT focuses on replacing negative thought patterns with healthier ones. Your teen can learn how to stop thinking negatively about themselves and think in a more positive way.
Summary: List positive characteristics. Keep a self-esteem journal. Suggest therapy.

Problem: Article: Iron supplements can make you more constipated. You do need to be on them for your baby, but you should make sure you're not taking too much. You might also be able to try a different kind of iron to help with your constipation. Stool softeners do exactly what they sound like: they make your stools softer, making it easier to go. Ask your doctor if it is safe for you to take them. Usually, it's easiest to go to the bathroom after you eat. Therefore, try spending some time in the bathroom to try to help your digestion along. Also, if you feel the need to go, take the time then. Don't try to hold it, as that may increase your constipation. These pills can be dangerous while you're pregnant. For one, they can make you dehydrated. For another, they can cause your uterus to contract. Therefore, you shouldn't take them unless directed by a doctor.
Summary:
Ask your doctor about your iron supplements. Ask your doctor about stool softeners. Try the bathroom after a meal. Avoid laxative pills.
