Q: Take all of your clothes off their hangers and out of any bins or drawers in your closet. Fold them in piles on the floor or on your bed. This includes your shoes as well. It may also include other accessories such as belts, scarves, purses, or ties. You may have the urge to keep everything, or toss everything. But go through systematically and piece by piece to really scrutinize your clothing. What you want in your closet are clothes that you wear on a regular basis, that fit you and are functional, and fit in the space available. Does the item fit? Clothing in the closet should fit you properly, neither too loose nor too tight. It typically means it is comfortable, not pinching, clothing can button easily, and no red marks left on the skin. It may also mean letting go of items no longer in fashion, such as skin tight skirts you really should not wear to your professional job. It is usually best to let go of "inspirational items" such as the jeans you hope to someday fit back into; trends being what they are the item may well be out of fashion when you do lose the weight. One pair of "fat pants" may be OK to remind you of your weight loss accomplishment. If your weight is fluctuating up or down (such as in growing young adults, pregnant women, or dieters) this may be tricky. Still, get rid or store items that clearly do not fit you. Do I wear this? Have you worn the item in the last year? How often do you wear it: once a week or only once this year? If you have not worn the item in a long time, that may well indicate it is time to let go. Special use items may be OK to keep even if used only periodically. You might have a Christmas sweater, or interview outfit, or formal dress that isn't used often but still worth having available. Do I like this? If you really don't like an item, do not keep it. In general, do not hang onto items out of guilt--such as that shirt your father bought you but you just do not like. Do I have multiples of this? Work or school uniforms are one thing. But if you have seven black almost identical t-shirts, that might be a sign to let go of a few. Make a "Keep" pile for the clothes that you will keep and wear on a regular basis. You should store the clothes that you won't be wearing for a while because they aren't seasonally appropriate. If it's the middle of summer, you can store your winter sweaters and scarves, and if it's the dead of winter, you can store your tank tops and summer dresses. You can also store clothes that may have sentimental value for you, such as a shirt your grandmother knitted for you, or an old t-shirt from your high school tennis team that no longer fits. Try to keep the sentimental value clothes to a minimum, though. Clothes are meant to be worn, after all. Consider displaying beloved clothing instead of keeping them in your closet. Consider framing your prized concert T-shirt, or creating a shadow box of your Boy Scout uniform and awards, or make a T-shirt quilt of your old marathon shirts. When you're done sorting through the clothes you will store, put them in a plastic bin or a clear bag marked keep. You can either store them in the back of your closet, under your bed, or in a storage unit or a different part of your home if you have the room. This is the hardest step, and the most important. If you want to have a truly organized closet, then your goal should be to get rid of as many items of clothing as possible. This doesn't mean you should throw out your favorite things - however, it does mean that you should take a long hard look to ask yourself which clothes you will actually ever wear again. If you haven't worn something in over a year and it has no sentimental value, it's time to donate it. If you have an item that is so worn, covered in moth holes, or faded that you and anyone else will never wear it again, then it's time to throw it out. If you have a few items of clothing that are just way too small, stop waiting for the day that they will fit and donate them. Donate all of the clothes you don't need that are in good condition, or give them to a sibling or friend. You should do this before you put back your clothes. Vacuum or sweep the floor, wipe the walls down with all-purpose cleaner, and sweep away any cobwebs that may have accumulated there. If you want to make any changes, such as painting the inside a different color or adding and removing some shelves, do it now.
A: Remove all of the clothes from your closet. Decide which clothes you will keep. Decide which clothes you will store. Decide which clothes you will donate or throw out. Clean the inside of the closet.

Q: When you first hop onto Tinder, you're probably not thinking of anything related to your driving time. Once you get established though, you might have a fleeting thought along the lines of "I don't mind driving a lot!" Be honest with yourself. 50 miles for a most likely mediocre date is a lot. I'm talking about 1 1/2 hours of driving to get coffee with someone who owns more cats than bars of soap. Don't do it; it's not worth it; you're better than that. It's important that when you're setting up your profile, you take a minute to think about how far you're willing to drive. If you're younger, consider the other person might not have a car (meaning you're driving the whole way. Or they are). A five-mile max distance means that any user who fits your age and gender will show up. If you set it to 1 mile, then Tinder will show you people within a 1-mile radius from where you are at that time. When you change location, then you are moving the center of the radius and will find different people. One reason people change their distance radius is to get more opportunities because they've already seen most of the people closer to them. The default is 50 miles. If you're in a major city, you might want to reduce it to 15 miles; choose a longer distance if you live in a less populated area.
A: Consider how far you're willing to drive to meet someone. Set the radius higher to get more matches.

Q: Depression can lead to other mental and physical problems. It is important to share what you are experiencing with your doctor. Your doctor can rule out physical causes for your depression. You could also go to a therapist and find ways to deal with your problems. Even a school counselor is a good place to start. Get a referral, if necessary. Your general practitioner may be able to recommend a psychiatrist or psychologist who can better treat your depression. Doctor's appointments go fast. Here's how to plan and get the most out of your time: Write down your symptoms. Write down key personal information, including major life events that may contribute to your thoughts, beliefs, or feelings. Write down your medications, include any vitamins or supplements. Write down any questions you have for your doctor. Questions for your doctor could include : Is depression the most likely explanation of my symptoms? What treatments would you recommend for me? What kind of tests do I need? How can I best manage my depression with my other health conditions? Are there alternative or complementary treatments that you recommend? Do you have any printed materials that I can take home? Do you have a website that you recommend? Do you have a local support group that you recommend? The doctor will likely have questions for you too. Be prepared to answer the following: Do any of your relatives have similar symptoms? When did you first notice your symptoms? Do you only feel down? Or does your mood fluctuate? Have you ever had suicidal thoughts? How is your sleep? Have your daily activities been affected? Do you use any illicit drugs or alcohol? Have you been diagnosed with any mental illnesses before? Ask a trusted friend or family member to accompany you to your appointment. They can help you remember to share things with your doctor, and can help you remember what your doctor shared with you. In addition to a psychological evaluation, you can expect a physical exam, including measuring height, weight and blood pressure; and laboratory tests, including blood count and thyroid evaluation.
A:
Make an appointment with your doctor. Prepare for your appointment. Ask someone to come with you. Go to your appointment.
