Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Seek professional help, if needed. Participate in hobbies. Exercise to relieve stress. Self-care in general is one of the most important things a spouse needs to do when they become a caregiver.

Answer: Caregivers are often under constant stress and pressure, and it is common for them to experience depression and anxiety because of it. Experiencing grief over your changed spouse may also cause you to feel down. Talk to a doctor about seeking therapy or taking prescription medication to help treat your issue. Doing so will enable you to be in better mental health to take care of your spouse. Caregivers commonly lose touch with activities they enjoy, as they often feel they don't have time for anything else except looking after their spouses. In addition to adding to the level of resentment you may feel, depriving yourself of activities you enjoy can also negatively affect the way you take care of your spouse. Make time to engage in your hobbies, even if it means asking someone to relieve you for a few hours a week so that you are able to participate. Taking care of your mental, emotional and spiritual needs is just as important as caring for your spouse. Fortunately, many hobbies can be enjoyed without even leaving the home, such as reading, knitting, doing yoga, painting, meditating, and spending time with growing grandchildren. Exercising can help your emotional and physical well-being, which is beneficial to both you and your spouse. Spending just a few minutes a day walking, running, participating in tai chi or yoga, or riding a bike can make you feel better emotionally and physically. You may be able to exercise with your spouse during the early stages of dementia, which gives you a chance to connect with your spouse and support their physical and mental well-being. Some spouses feel guilty because they cannot manage everything. Keeping yourself healthy is the best thing you can do to help your spouse.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Plan the event. Plant the seed. Enact a sudden death. Prepare your appearance as being injured. "Die" from an injury.

Answer: Decide how you want to fake it. Map out the event on paper to better flush out your ideas for the prank. Plan to "die" in front of people you know can handle it. Gather any supplies like fake blood or a trick dagger from a local costume shop. "Dying" in front of someone will take a lot of convincing and dedication from you. Be prepared to go the extra mile in selling your "death" to your peers. Try to decide a good location to "die." You probably don't want to be somewhere too public or else a bystander could call an ambulance. Night is a good time because there won't be as much light on the scene. Pick out one or a group of your friends to witness your faux death. Begin telling them clues that you aren't doing so well. Decide if you want to "die" from an injury or disease. If you're planning a disease induced "death," tell them about your failing health. Be dramatic to the point of them believing you. Choose symptoms like headache, nausea, jittering limbs, or fainting. If you are planning to "die" from an injury, make up a person who is angry with you. Build up a story about how someone shady is anxious for you to pay them. Pretend to be in extreme, sudden pain. Fall to the ground holding your side. Place an open packet of ketchup in your mouth so that once you hit the floor it looks like blood is oozing out of your mouth. Make yourself as limp as possible after having a brief convulsion. Control your breathing. Don't let them see your chest rise and fall. Having too much of a spasm can give away your act. Do everything in subtlety when it comes to tricking your friends or the camera. Lay there until people start to get scared. Never let a "trick" get taken out of context. Come forward if the audience becomes too distraught. You can do this in several different scenarios and most of which can happen out of sight from your audience. You could have gotten into a car accident or been severely beaten while being mugged. Roughen up some of your clothes to appear as though you were severely injured. Add blood smears and tears to parts of your outfit. Apply charcoal to parts of your face to look like you've been beaten up. Break an old pair of glasses for an added effect. It's best to have a set time of meeting and show up late for dramatic effect. Make sure your audience is in the location you planned them to be at. Wear the clothes and makeup from your "injury." Limp onto the scene and begin to mutter audibly what happened like, "a . . . a . . . car crash" or "he sa. . .sa. . . said give me the ma. . .money." Collapse just before you reach your audience. As mentioned earlier, have an opened packet of ketchup in your mouth for when you fall. Once you hit the ground, bite down on the ketchup and allow it to ooze out of your mouth. Once they start shaking you, asking you if you are alright, say, "gotcha!"

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Eat slowly. Spit out your gum. Avoid bubbles. Lay off the carbs and fat. Don't smoke. Consider medication.

Answer: Many gut noises don't result from intestinal conditions but instead arise from having too much gas or air in the digestive system. This is a problem that is relatively easy to correct. One simple solution is to slow down your eating. When you eat too quickly, you swallow a lot of air. This results in bubbles that create embarrassing gut noises as they move around your digestive system. Chewing gum has a similar effect to eating too quickly. It makes you swallow air as you chew it. If you're having gut noises, spit out the gum. Bubbly beverages like soda, beer, and and carbonated water can also lead to gurgling sounds in your gut. These drinks are pumped full of gas, which then makes its way into your digestive system. Carbohydrates and especially refined sugars can produce a lot of gas when digested. Steer clear of sugary and starchy foods, as well as excess fat. Even otherwise healthy foods such as fruit juices (especially apple and pear) can produce this effect due to their high sugar content. Fat does not cause gas on it's own, but can lead to bloating, which can place pressure on your intestines and worsen the problem. Everyone knows smoking is bad for you, but you may not have known it can lead to embarrassing gut noises. Smoking, like gum chewing or eating too fast, can also result in the swallowing of air. If you smoke, consider quitting. If you can't or don't want to quit, at least avoid smoking before any situation in which gut noises might cause you embarrassment. If you suffer from frequent gas problems, you may want to consider a medication that targets this problem. A number of pills are available that can help your body digest the foods that cause gas. You can find these at any drug store. Talk to your doctor or a pharmacist for recommendations.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Read your contract carefully. Understand what makes a payment "late. Know the penalties for late payments.

Answer:
When you get a new credit card, read all parts of the contract carefully. In particular, study the section on payment requirements and the penalties for late payments. If you understand the contract terms, you will be more likely to remember and comply with them. If you have had a card for some time, but you never bothered to read the contract, call the customer service office. The phone number is usually printed on your card itself or on each monthly bill. Ask for a copy of your contract. " You may think you know the due date for your payment. However, you could still risk being late. Most contracts define a "late" payment as any payment that is not received by the due date. Some credit companies even specify a particular time of day, generally 5:00 p.m. You need to know when your payment is due and plan to meet that. Speak with your customer service office if you are not familiar with the late fee system for your card. Many companies use a two-tier system of setting penalties, based on the balance due on your card. Most credit card companies have fees of about $15 for balances under about $250 and a fee of around $39 for higher balances.
