Answer: If you have difficulty managing your emotional pain, then seek counsel from a professional trained to deal with this type of struggle. Contact you doctor or trusted friend or family member for a referral in your area. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is one of many types of therapies that are effective with emotional pain that causes depression, anxiety, and various disorders. Group therapy is also effective when coupled with a problem-solving approach. Groups may be focused specifically on recovery from trauma or loss, or can be formed to help with social and coping skills. The goal is to pick a program in which you feel safe, comfortable and accepted. The unique aspects of your situation will drive the decision. All forms of treatment require a large dose of self-help to make the program successful. Treatment options include: Family-based therapy has been found to be an effective first line treatment in some cases. Inpatient treatment centers. You are required to check-in to the facility and remain there for a specific period of time. Outpatient therapy. You attend therapy at a clinic, but are able to stay in your home. Group therapy. You attend meetings with a group of other people suffering from emotional pain and discuss your issues together under supervision of a therapist. Individual therapy. You attend one-on-one appointments with a trained therapist to explore your feelings, beliefs, and behaviors and build strategies for improvement. When people are in pain they will do whatever they can to stop the pain. The decision of how you will "treat" your pain is up to you. There are healthy ways and destructive ways. Using alcohol, drugs or binge-eating to manage your pain is unhealthy and will lead to more pain if left unattended. Research shows that individuals suffering emotional pain due to PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) who engage in self-medicating behaviors are more likely to attempt suicide. If at any time you have thoughts of suicide contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255. If you live outside the U.S. contact them for a referral for your area. If you are self-medicating, discuss this with a doctor, counselor or trusted family member to get the help you need. Find healthy alternatives to manage your pain, as noted in this article. Strong relationships don't just happen. They need attention to thrive if they are to enhance your physical and psychological health. When a person experiences a difficulty in life, relations can suffer. Reconnect with friends and family to ensure you get the support that you need. You can participate in online social gatherings and real life gatherings. Expand your interests into new areas. Perhaps you can volunteer for an educational program reading books to kids at youth centers or libraries. Fight your pain with activities that make you feel better. Groups form when people share similar interests. Research potential opportunities and join in. For example, if you are good at drawing or computer coding, go out of your way to get involved in these activities. It's nice to feel successful and capable, which can prevent you from lapsing into a negative mind space. Use your family and friends and groups to help you remain accountable. Use visualization techniques to train your brain to believe you will get past the emotional pain and discomfort. The thoughts you have during visualization exercises produce the same mental instructions for your brain as if you acted them out. There are times in life when things have been so difficult you might have forgotten what if feel like to enjoy life. If it's been a while since you have done something you enjoy, it is time to start.

It may sound silly, but smiling has been shown to improve your mood, and is contagious. Sharing a smile with the world is a surefire way to create happiness for yourself. Identify the positive aspects of the struggle you are experiencing, what you learned and how those lessons will help you in the future. Appreciate the experience. Being grateful for the experience and what it brings to your life will improve your overall mental and physical health.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Notice if they follow you on social media. Watch for text messages that don't have any real meaning. Watch for gentle teasing. Look for a cleaned up appearance. Watch for special gifts. See how available they are to you. Pay attention to compliments.

Answer: One big indicator that someone is totally into you is by checking to see if that person has reached out to you via social media. This means someone is thinking about you when you are not together and wants to learn more about your personal life. If they send you a text message just to see what you are doing, or texts you all day long, then they probably can't get you off of their mind. Constant communication is a clear sign that they have a crush on you. If someone has a crush on you, they may lightly make fun of you, not to hurt your feelings, but to make you smile. That is a common method of flirtation. Along with teasing, watch for funny conversations. Chances are, they will try to keep conversations light and funny to get you to laugh, if they have a crush on you. It can be hard to tell if someone always tries to look their best, or if it is for you. If you are Facebook friends, try looking at their photos to get a sense of what their appearance is like when you two are not around each other. If it seems that they try to look at their best only around you, then you know they are trying to impress you. If someone stops at a shop you love to buy you a special gift, or surprises you with a little treat, then it is a sign of a crush. They want to make you happy with their small gestures of affection and show you that they care. If someone is always willing to spend time with you and never misses a chance to see you, then you can be sure they have a crush on you. Watch to see if they attend the same parties as you or cancels on other plans to hang out with you. If someone is crushing on you, be ready for compliments about even the smallest changes you make. Someone who likes you will notice when you get a haircut or buy a new pair of shoes, and they will let you know about that new change with a compliment.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Select a dress in a style and fabric that makes you feel comfortable. Opt for darker colors like black, navy, or charcoal. Wear narrow, vertical stripes. Try a print with small designs or a small floral pattern.

Answer:
If it does not feel great in the store, don't buy it. If it's too tight that it makes you uncomfortable as you stand in the dressing room, it will only feel worse when you wear it out. Try on multiple dresses until you find one that feels good. Try cotton blends, linen, or silk as these fabrics flatter curves by not sticking to the wrong places. When buying a dress online, always check reviews and see what other people say about comfort and fit. And it's best to buy from an online store that has an easy and free return policy so you can return it if you don't love it once it arrives. Darker colors are slimming because they hide wrinkles, bulges, and other indicators of fat. Colors like white or beige can make you look like you have more belly fat than you do because they actually highlight those lumps and wrinkles and draw attention to them. The key to creating an illusion of a slimmer body is elongation. Vertical stripes draw the eye up and down and make you appear tall and lean. Stick with narrowly-spaced thin stripes (like a pinstripe) for the best slimming effect. The wider the stripe, the wider it can make you look. Avoid wide, horizontal stripes. They draw the eye outward and can make you look wider than you actually are. If you do want to wear horizontal stripes, thin and narrowly-spaced stripes have the most slimming effect. The trick to finding a good print is selecting one that makes it difficult and unnatural for the eye to focus on any one part. The larger the print, the more it easily it draws the eye. Pair a small print with solid accessories and attention will be drawn away from the fabric of the dress and away from your midsection.
