My Real Experience Of Being A Sugar Baby

Whilst traveling, it is hard to save up money quickly. You want to see and do everything while you're in a country for a short time so you don't miss out. Being a sugar baby was the perfect way for me to avoid wasting all my time earning money while I lived in Australia. I saw a job advert on Craigslist to make money by dating older, successful men. The link took me to a sugar daddy site, which is for sugar daddies seeking younger, attractive partners to share their resources and time with,then I made a profile.It wasn't exactly a job as it had been advertised but it did still suggest that a sugar daddy would help me out financially. I'd never used online dating before but I was curious enough to give it a go. When making the profile I was honest about everything apart from my name. I wa...

More Than Half Of People Using Medical Cannabis For Pain Experience Weed Withdrawal Symptoms

In stark contrast to the overblown fears portrayed during decades past, these days, most people think cannabis is relatively harmless. While weed is indeed less dangerous than some other drugs, it is not without risks.   CC BY-ND In a study published Jan. 5, my colleagues and I found that 59% percent of people using medical cannabis for chronic pain experienced moderate to severe withdrawal symptoms if they stopped ingesting weed for hours or days. Most states in the U.S. have legalized cannabis for medical purposes and 15 have legalized it for recreational use.

Almost half of US teens who date experience stalking and harassment

Falling in love for the first time can be a thrill, and teen dating is important to adolescent development. But according to the results of a study that my research team recently conducted, these early forays into romance often veer into unhealthy territory. CC BY-ND As many as 48% of 12- to 18-year-olds who describe themselves as having had a dating partner in the past year have also experienced dating-related stalking and harassment. Not only can dating-related stalking and harassment cause anxiety and depression in teens, but it can also be a harbinger for more serious forms of abuse should the relationship continue. Our study collected self-reported survey data from 320 adolescents from across the U.S. through the Survey on Teen Relationships and Intimate Violence. Youths with datin...
