3:56🔗VoiceoverEven in Tucson, even in LA, Coast to Coast. All right, what's going on? It's Loveline, 1-800-LOVE-191. Adam Corolla not here, so I am gonna try and fill in for that hairy man as best as I can. I would be Stryker along with Dr. Drew, board certified physician, addiction medicine specialist. I checked out Big Brother tonight.
4:36🔗DrewOn Wednesdays, they do a live show, okay? And it's sort of like a news format where they look at, they either talk about who the houseguests have nominated for banishment or who the public voted out that week. And then they bring them out of the house.
4:50🔗AdamHave you formed a relationship with anyone in there or you're kind of on the outside looking at them?
4:53🔗DrewI meet them as they come out. But I basically do like a three minute comment. They figure out what questions they want to ask me and I answer the questions.
5:30🔗Yeah. Me and my boyfriend have been together for almost three years now. And a couple months ago, he started watching pornos while we had sex. But he hadn't done it for about a month. But I want to know why. And the next time it comes up, I want to know, tell him how I feel about it.
6:12🔗DrewThe peel. Oh, the peel, okay. But my god, you're 16. How old is the guy? 19. It sounds like you've been through a couple rounds of tours of duty in Vietnam, and now you've settled down with some trucker out in the country.
6:30🔗AdamHow often does he wear a wife beater tank top? More than five or less than five?
7:26🔗DrewHey, Shannon. All right. You don't realize this. I think many of them don't realize this. You have the ultimate trump card. Okay? It's very simple. He wants to watch Pornos. You don't want to have sex. That's it. That's it.
7:37🔗AdamDo you understand what Dr. Drew is saying?
7:41🔗AdamThe guy will do whatever you say to have sex with you, Shannon. You say no porn, he'll say fine.
7:49🔗DrewHe'll manipulate and try to make you feel guilty and stuff. Eventually, he'll give in. Don't even listen to him. Just say whatever. Fine. I'm not participating. All right? Okay.
8:39🔗DrewI think we're another Detroit station now, aren't we?
8:42🔗CallerYeah. That's where I'm coming from. But I'm selling out. I see. Okay. I have a problem. My boyfriend, he jacks off in front of me with a washcloth, and it makes me uncomfortable because it's with a washcloth, and it doesn't that hurt.
8:58🔗DrewAt least he has the decorum to use the washcloth.
9:01🔗AdamWait, hold on. To wash collage as the lubricant or to finish it off in the washcloth, Jessica?
10:12🔗CallerWell, you know, after we've done it or whatever. Not not done it, but after I've, you know, I just I don't want to do it every day or whatever. I don't want it to be a routine that I, you know, feed his meat for him.
10:29🔗DrewI'm trying. And when you tell him not to do that in front of you, how does he react?
10:35🔗CallerI just I just tell him I'm I tell him, you know, I just ask him why he has to do it with a washcloth and like, you know, why you have to do it in front of me and he's like, he just thinks I'm joking or something.
10:46🔗DrewWell, stop joking around. Just make it real clear to him. If you say it giggly, he's gonna think you're joking. Say, look, hey, this doesn't turn me on. It bothers me. It's gross. Stop.
10:57🔗DrewAgain, the same trump card applies for you, Jessica.
10:59🔗AdamYou know, Jessica, you're a girl. You're 15. You're gonna be a woman soon. And a guy will do anything just to get just to touch him in any sort of way. Seriously, a guy will jump through hoops. He'll put up a small fight. He'll argue a little bit. But eventually, definitely will give in. Don't you think so, Dr. Drew?
11:18🔗AdamBecause I do it every single day of my life.
11:20🔗DrewRyan. I saw you last night. I thought you were going to crawl across the console here.
11:23🔗AdamI practically crawled across the console. Oh, man, I'm still, you know what? I had, I have material in my brain to use for months because of Victoria last night.
12:04🔗DrewWell, it's probably, no one knows the reality is. I can just tell you from talking to thousands of young folks that, hang on a second, there you go.
12:13🔗DrewThat's just the way it is. Now, I believe that women actually change biologically, that as they get older, it becomes easier for them to access that function. And by the same token, they also get more comfortable with partners, they achieve greater levels of intimacy and closeness and vulnerability, and all that is necessary for their sexuality to sort of unfold. Right.
12:31🔗AdamI've noticed as growing up, women when I was younger, not that I was like sleeping around because I wasn't, girl like me when I was younger. But the older the women get, the more they know what they want and especially how they want it, and they just let themselves go bananas. Yeah. That's exactly what happens. So, hey Ryan, don't worry about it. Eventually, as the woman gets a little bit...
12:50🔗DrewWell, ask her for direction. That is the main thing, women need to direct. Guys are clueless. Guys are clueless. Come on.
12:56🔗AdamStraight down the happy trail line. It's right between the legs.
13:10🔗CallerHey, guys. I love the show. OK, I took ecstasy about a month ago for the first time. And I was wondering about side effects, because now whenever I get nervous or hyper, I feel like I'm on it, and it makes me almost sick.
13:34🔗DrewMost people don't have any significant long-term effects except for a single exposure, though it's possible to have panic attacks and elevated experiences of anxiety.
13:47🔗DrewAll right. So you may want to talk to somebody about that. There may be biological or pharmacologic remedies for that, but it's basically, it sort of can open up pathways in the brain that might not have opened up otherwise. And those pathways can create anxiety and depression. But it's usually after a few exposures. Was it a big hit, big dose?
14:06🔗CallerI really wouldn't know. I've like never done drugs before.
14:08🔗AdamHow was your, Nikki, how was your experience on it when you took it?
14:13🔗CallerIt was okay. It was, I was really hyper for a while.
14:20🔗DrewAll right. So there's sort of a coupled experience with anxiety and nausea, right? Every time you get anxious, you get that nausea feeling back. It may just been sort of a conditioned response to that whole experience.
15:19🔗DrewNot to sound promotional, but at drdrew.com, there's a HealthWise article, Health Brief article that is just about this. There are some medications, there's something called Xerac and things you can put on to get some dermatology.
15:30🔗I talked to my family doctor also, and he kind of like laughed at me.
15:33🔗DrewIt's not funny. It's not funny. Yeah. And people get this in their hands, they get it in their armpits, they get it in their forehead, and you should see a dermatologist about it. There are topical things. There are also the surgeries that can correct this, and there are things that they can do to sort of- Yeah.
15:47🔗DrewWell, sometimes they're not in such big surgeries. They could change the nervous input into that area, but I would obviously start with some of these topical agencies, crams and things. Hey, Lara. Dr. Dermatologist.
15:57🔗AdamLara. Yes? Have you always sweat under the armpits? Yeah. Oh, you have? Okay. Because I was going to say- I never would sweat under the armpits. All of a sudden, I started doing it excessively. I switched deodorants, and now I'm fine.
16:13🔗But I want to tell you guys, too, that I really appreciate what you guys do for everyone. And I know a lot of crazies call in, but I'm 18, I'm a virgin, and I'm staying in school, so-
16:39🔗CallerMan, too bad Adam's gone. I had like a little monument for him.
16:41🔗DrewWell, Stryker's here. He'll accept on his behalf.
16:43🔗CallerWell, you filled the bill for him. You're much better than he is.
16:46🔗DrewWhy doesn't anyone... Lawrence, as God is my witness, why doesn't anyone ever say that when Adam's actually here?
16:52🔗AdamBecause he'll hang up on him and goes, is that... Because then he'll go off on me.
16:55🔗DrewYou know why? Because our listeners know that if they were to come forward with something like that, I would get abused for like an hour and a half.
17:00🔗AdamAnd by the way, I don't... Anyway. Hey, Lawrence.
17:03🔗CallerYo, your website, Dr. Drew Cooks, so much ass. I visit it like every day.
17:19🔗CallerYeah, sure. Anyway, like I'm not gay, but like, I like I'm kind of attracted to like some guys. I mean, I don't have like fantasies, but I just like look at some guys.
17:27🔗DrewI'm like, wow, you know, I just think that, you know, you feed it as a sort of sexual feelings or falling in love feelings.
17:33🔗CallerYeah, kind of. But I don't like I don't think, you know, I don't really fantasize anything. I just like say, wow, he's like pretty good looking. And I want to know why.
17:41🔗DrewDo you have sexual feelings about women?
17:45🔗DrewI mean, I know I'm straight, but I just like I'm not gay, but I just don't I wonder why this is pretty much all men at one time or another will have some kind of same-sex women even more so, but men, they may not admit it and they may not remember it. But all men will have periods of more or lesser periods of intensity of same-sex attraction.
18:06🔗CallerNo, but this has been like for like a few years.
18:08🔗DrewI know. And yours is more than average. And that's it. You're just you're just don't worry about it. Be comfortable with it. You know, you're clear in your sexual identity. You mostly sexually aroused for women. You appreciate men. You have these sort of intimate feelings about men. That's great.
18:21🔗CallerAnd I had another question. I just want to know, is it because like, I was raped by some sick ass?
18:47🔗CallerI know some guy. I knew he was like 13 years old. He was like one of my older sister's friends. And I'm so pissed at him. I don't know why he did do that to me. Because I'm like all confused now.
18:59🔗DrewYeah, you are confused. And someone did that to him. I guarantee it. That's why he did it. You don't have any feelings towards young kids, do you?
19:16🔗DrewStrangely, I don't pay attention to that.
19:18🔗CallerIs there anything I can do about this? Will it just pass?
19:22🔗DrewDefinitely. If you've never had any therapy, this is called a post-traumatic stress disturbance that people get from these sorts of experiences. Again, there's a suggestion that these kinds of traumas also change people's trajectory of their behavior. There are things you can do, the people you can talk to, but if you don't, at this point, I don't think you need to.
19:43🔗AdamWe've had a lot of calls last night and tonight about guys who say, I'm straight, I'm straight, who fantasize about being, not being with a guy, but look at a guy and go, oh, he must work out. I don't remember doing that, but you say it's kind of normal?
19:54🔗DrewWell, it's usually, you're putting it in a sexual context. I wasn't talking about the kind of attraction that Lawrence probably actually does feel, which is a quasi-sexual feeling. It's more of an intimate feeling, like a desire to be close to and whole. A young kid, a vulnerable, intimate kind of feeling, more than a sexual feeling, because once the sexual feeling is really sort of galvanized, they're usually direct in a specific direction on women.
20:48🔗AdamYou want to introduce a vibrator to your girlfriend because you want to just get more kinky in the bedroom or what?
20:55🔗CallerWell, we've been dating for about almost three years now. The only reason I don't want to marry her is because we're going to college and the only reason I would marry somebody is because we're moving out and we can't do that yet.
21:09🔗DrewYou're living at home and going to college?
21:10🔗CallerYeah, we're living at home and going to college.
21:13🔗CallerYeah. Yeah. The problem is that I love her and I don't want to leave her and screw around with somebody else because to me, it puts these and I want to make it more interesting for her, but she's kind of prudish.
21:37🔗CallerI was wondering how I can introduce her without her freaking out.
21:40🔗DrewBut you describe women in such glorious terms there, Joe. Respectful and glorious, I should say. What is that all about? How do you even know you want to marry someone if you don't care what woman you're dating?
21:56🔗DrewWell, you seem to describe women in kind of negative terms just a minute ago.
22:00🔗CallerWell, I don't mean like negative like that. I mean just the feeling of it. To me, it's just if I wanted to sleep around, it would just be like I was sleeping with her and I'm like, why do I want to do that? I don't want to screw this up. I just want to make it more interesting for both of us, but I don't want to freak her out.
22:20🔗AdamI know exactly what you're saying. She's kind of prude. She has sex. She's not crazy. She doesn't scream and you want her to break out of some sort of shell she's in, I guess, right?
22:31🔗AdamJust, you know what? Just communicate with her, man. No. No? Why not? Tell her, look, I love being with you. I love having the sex. Why can't we just spice it up a little bit? And you know, if she's real uptight. How old is she?
22:44🔗DrewOh. Don't you think she might be defensive if she's already kind of uptight? How about like presenting her with a gift, making it a big, here, I thought she'd make it kind of funny.
22:54🔗DrewNo, but I mean, some sort of fun way of approaching it.
22:58🔗AdamWhy don't you take her for dinner and like conveniently have the dinner near one of those sex shops? Hey, look at that thing. Why don't we cruise in there? Go in there and then really scare the bejesus out of her, Joe.
23:09🔗DrewStryker, you're diabolical. Keep that mind focused on good.
23:13🔗DrewWell, but Joe, I think Stryker is saying if he gives some good advice, then talking to her, of course, is always an important way to try to let her know your feelings, but that may be some way of sort of making more comfortable using humor. That kind of thing might help her out.
23:28🔗AdamBut the only reason why I say to do it like that, they've been dating for three years, he said.
23:38🔗Well, I have this problem, I don't know, because I could like, is with my heart, I don't know, I'm not sure I should be concerned, but I could play like football and basketball and everything and I'll feel fine, you know, but like when I masturbate, you know, I feel like I'm working my heart too hard or something. I don't know.
24:20🔗DrewYou're not being too clear about this Leonard, but suffice it to say that during a sexual experience, the biological changes are sort of unique to that experience. And people can have chest pains, they can have migraines and things that they wouldn't otherwise have triggered by their experiences. A 17-year-old is able to play football and what not is really unlikely to be a significant heart problem. However, because you play football and because you're having funny symptoms, it does need to be looked at. It could be just something like Montreal Foul Prolapse, but it could be something more serious. Just to rule it out, just seeing a regular doctor, no problem.
24:53🔗DrewOh, I'm sure it's probably okay. But it's the kind of thing where you want to get an EKG, you want to have a physical exam, just to make sure it's okay. Right, okay. As much as anything, because he's playing sports.
25:01🔗AdamSo what are we doing here? Is it break time?
25:03🔗AdamAll right, well hold on. Mike, listen to this. Mike, he wants to have sex with his stepsister, and well, we'll find out what happens next on Loveline.
25:14🔗StrykerThis is Loveline. 1-800-LOVE-191. Loveline will be right back.
25:40🔗AdamAll right, we're back. You're listening to Loveline. 1-800-LOVE-191. Adam Corolla, my main man mayonnaise is gone. When you had Snoop on, Dr. Drew.
25:52🔗AdamOh, it's probably my favorite show. Because just having Snoop on, go, my main man mayonnaise. That was so nice. That's Dr. Drew, I'm Stryker. In for Adam Corolla. We're going to talk to Mike Incest, and I see Step Sister. What's up with you?
26:05🔗CallerWell, my dad just got married about three months ago, and my step mom has a daughter who's my age, and we've done some on top, like making out and groping and whatnot.
26:17🔗DrewWere you guys already sort of getting together before the parents got together?
26:48🔗DrewGod only knows. You take two seven-year-olds, put them together in a house together, what do people expect? No duh. This is my thing. No effin duh. But it's incumbent upon the parents to control and expect these things. And Mike, if you do it, it's going to, you're going to regret it. You're going to not regret it for about five minutes. And then you're going to regret it for about 25 years.
27:06🔗AdamWhat do you think, Mike? You think it's right or wrong?
27:10🔗AdamIt feels right. Do it. Well, anytime you grab a breast, it feels right. But what do you think?
27:14🔗DrewIt feels right. Do it. That's the olden days. Yeah. No longer applies to current situations.
27:19🔗AdamAs the doctor said, Mike, legally or whatever, I don't think there's a law at that. But man, that's screwy, man. I just look in your high school mic and find someone else, all right?
27:40🔗AdamOK, bye. Or on Loveline in a couple weeks from now. Oh, yikes. Justin, 18 on Loveline.
27:46🔗Hello? Hello, Justin. Wow, it's an honor to talk to you guys. I'm Dr. Drew. I really admire the service you do for everyone. My pleasure. And Adam Corolla, if you're listening, you are a comic genius.
28:01🔗My question is, does body fat and metabolism influence how long THC stays in your system?
28:07🔗DrewInteresting question. Kind of. How's that for a vague answer? Let's put it this way. If you have a large amount of body fat, you tend to store more THC. But predominantly the big issue with THC is how much you smoke and how long.
29:20🔗DrewAll right. Be careful. People are getting very good at trying to detect adultering agents. I'm going to take some golden seal, I'm going to take this, I'm going to take that. We can test for that too now. And you're more likely to be negative, Justin. You're more likely to be picked up for taking an adultering agent than to be positive on the test. So go ahead and take the test.
30:09🔗CallerActually more the male side because I've got three kids and I think that's about it for my family.
30:15🔗DrewWe would agree. Vasectomy, because it's the simplest, safest procedure, that's why it's done. You understand? If there were a simpler, easier, safer thing to be done, that's what people would get.
30:28🔗CallerOh, okay. Is there any, some kind of medication out that would be just as effective?
30:56🔗CallerJust like soreness and it's gotten infected and they've actually had to have that lower half completely removed because of it.
31:04🔗DrewI've never, that's a new one on me. I'm sure it can happen, but boy, that would be rare. Okay?
31:10🔗CallerOkay. And I just want to let you guys know that all the younger audience you guys have out there, I mean, whether they realize it or not, you guys are actually helping them out a lot.
32:24🔗DrewCalifornia. Yeah, but where are you from? How do you say California? Say a boat. A boat's 24. Natalie, why are they even concerned with the brother? Why aren't they focused on you?
33:38🔗DrewNatalie, this is good. You're 17. You're taking this head on. Sounds like you're in pretty good shape. Really? All things considered. Get some more treatment and let's put this thing behind you, all right?
34:01🔗CallerI'm attracted to guys that are anywhere from 18 to 24.
34:08🔗CallerI just want to know what's wrong with me.
34:10🔗AdamBecause girls mature so much faster than guys, and guys that are 20 just look appealing to you, because the 15 year olds mostly are much smaller, Drew.
34:20🔗DrewThat and her dad took off when she was six.
34:38🔗DrewYou're on a big quest. You're going to find dad. What you're finding is more abusive, abandoning A-holes because only those kinds of guys are going to prey on a 15-year-old.
34:49🔗DrewSo, OK, have those attractions. That's fine. But don't trust them. Don't act on them. Realize that this is a remnant of your dad having abandoned you at such a young age.
34:58🔗AdamAnd Kaylee, any guy that's, I don't know, about an 18-year-old, but 19, 20, 21 and older that would even, you know, may want to go out with you, there's something screwy with that guy to begin with. So stay away from them, OK?
35:21🔗CallerAll right. I have a question for you guys. I gave a girl, she gave me a blow job. And she told me that, that, you know, that, I don't know, she's really confused about this.
37:26🔗CallerYeah. Anyway, man, I was just wondering if there was something I could do. I've tried like wearing briefs and like, it's just kind of weird.
37:35🔗DrewMaybe we're not getting exactly what the problem is. How far have they descended towards the ground?
37:40🔗CallerWell, I mean, I haven't busted out with a rule or anything.
37:44🔗AdamAre they... Listen, if you stuck your wiener down, which is further down, the wiener or the sack?
38:02🔗DrewI've examined... You're fine. And when aroused, they'll tend to pull up a little bit. So you're looking at men when they're aroused too there.
38:30🔗AdamOh, Ciflis. Oh, man. I'll find out what the hell that is, too. I don't even know. I should read a book. It's Loveline. Drew, what? You all right?
39:47🔗AdamNone. I have no kids. All right. We briefly mentioned the word syphilis, and I'll admit it. I'm not sure what it is. Of course, I've heard it. How you get a sexually transmitted disease, but what is it?
39:57🔗DrewSyphilis is a disease transmitted by something called a spirochete, and something that throughout human history has been a very, very serious issue, obviously, and used to kill people. And what it does is cause initially a shanker, an ulcer, a big red scab. And that ulcer is what can transmit the disease to another person. And where you contact that ulcer tends to be where you get it. So if somebody has an ulcer on his penis and puts it in a vagina, there's where she gets it. And then it goes away after a few days. And it's painless. It doesn't hurt. And then something called secondary syphilis comes on, where you get a rash, typically on the palms, and lymph nodes are around the, classically on the elbows. And then that goes away. And then it can do other things. It can cause gummas and something called acumenata.
40:47🔗AdamIf untreated, all these things will happen in a chronological order like that.
40:50🔗DrewYeah, and then ultimately it goes to the brain. And when it goes to the brain, it can cause a dementia. It's very serious. It's very difficult to treat when it gets to that point. So it's something you want to treat early, obviously. And it's easily treatable with penicillin.
41:05🔗AdamAnd now on the rankings of sexually transmitted diseases, in terms of most popular to least, where is it?
41:10🔗DrewIt was almost completely eradicated recently. When I was in training, there was a pretty decent outbreak. So it kind of comes back in little outbreaks.
41:17🔗AdamAll right, so now we know what it is. David, you're 19 on Loveline.
41:24🔗CallerWhat happened three months ago, I was dating this one girl and we had sex. And about a week later, I know when I started to urinate, it would burn. So I went to a doctor and the doctor treated me for it.
41:37🔗CallerThey said it was a combination of gonorrhea and syphilis.
41:39🔗DrewWell, syphilis doesn't cause pain when you urinate.
41:42🔗CallerWell, then it's not syphilis? Well, then it was gonorrhea because that's what the doctor told me.
41:45🔗DrewWell, typically what you do is when somebody gets hurts when they peepee is you treat them for chlamydia and gonorrhea and non-gonococcal urethritis. It's all the same.
41:55🔗CallerOkay. Well, she treated me for that and it took about almost two weeks for it to finally leave. And I left again. And now three months later, I have a girlfriend and she's on the pill. If I had sex with her, could she transmit the disease?
42:14🔗DrewIt should be. If you want to get tested before hand, just to be sure, because chlamydia is sometimes hard to eradicate. Make sure you, I don't know what treatment you got, whether or not you got the right treatment for that or not, but definitely chlamydia is something that should have been covered for them.
42:25🔗AdamSo what diseases stick with you forever? Herpes, warts?
42:28🔗DrewHerpes, warts, the viruses, hepatitis, HIV. All the viruses.
42:32🔗AdamWhich ones are gone once you get them, you take a pill?
42:40🔗CallerMy girlfriend, you know, okay, she's, I know, an old girlfriend called me and she said she loved me and my new girlfriend, her name, can I tell you her name? No, okay. Well, anyway, and she said she didn't blame me if I experimented with this other girl who said she did love me that wasn't my girlfriend.
43:23🔗CallerI wouldn't want her to experiment with other people.
43:25🔗DrewDoes that imply maybe this relationship isn't going the way you want it to go? I'm not sure. I would say the probability is not knowing her. The probability is one of two things. She either can't tolerate this relationship and is sabotaging or she's giving you a message. She really is ready to kind of move on, find a way to make you get out of it a little bit.
43:53🔗CallerAnd I have another question though. I had sex with her and maybe this is... Do you think that... I know this is just an opinion, but is that maybe I wasn't... maybe I was inadequate?
44:35🔗AdamAll right, man. See you later. All right.
44:37🔗DrewHey, Danielle, do we get like, is it because Adam not here, are people sort of more comfortable calling us tonight? We're getting different kinds of younger callers, you think?
44:48🔗I think people are just happy not to be insulted.
44:52🔗AdamWell, let me start. Hey, screwball, Jenny. Yes. Jenny, everyone's an idiot, Jenny. Where do you fit in?
44:58🔗AdamI'm just kidding, Jenny. You're 13 on Loveline. What's up?
45:01🔗CallerMy mom, she was going through some of my stuff and reading some of my letters and she recently found out I wasn't a virgin and now I don't know. She's like-
45:33🔗DrewThat's impossible. That's just not something you should tolerate. When that happens, you call police. That's it. The kids that run away, run away because they're being abused.
45:43🔗CallerWell, we went to my hometown where I'm from, and then I wanted to stay there for the weekend and she said no.
45:48🔗CallerSo I just got out the car and stayed anyway, and I took a bus back up to where I'm from.
46:12🔗DrewWell, it's understandable if she upsets your young kid, and I'm sure she's worried about you and it hurts her to see that this is happening to you and she doesn't think it's good for you, which it isn't. But on the other hand, boy, she's really not serving your needs in the way she's parenting you necessarily, either. Why don't you take care of yourself, Jenny? I mean, having sex at your age is not the best thing for you, is it? No, I don't get it. No. Come on. Just focus on taking care of yourself. It was right for you. And let mom know that if you hit her, it's not appropriate. If she hits you, it's not appropriate. I'll give you a phone number. It is 1-800-540-4000. 1-800-540-4000. You can call and talk to about those kinds of experiences.
46:54🔗DrewYeah, somebody's hitting on you. You know, a lot of cultures in this country think that's okay. They call it whoop uneven. And it's not okay. It is extremely dangerous for kids. It is destructive to them. It changes their character development.
47:32🔗DrewWell, real growth hormone will cause his bone plates to close. He'll be shorter than he would have been otherwise. It also causes his bone to grow in around the nerves, and so you can get paralysis of the facial muscles. I think it's a mess. So Marco, I don't know what it is they're giving you, but is there anything on the bottle that tells you what it actually is?
47:49🔗CallerOh, it says like live longer, feel younger, increase your energy level.
47:53🔗DrewYeah, but what is the chemical compound?
47:56🔗CallerOh, it has glutamate, glypholine, arginine, like hydros.
48:03🔗DrewYeah, so arginine can increase or stimulate release of growth hormone a little bit. So that's what they're getting at. So that's just a couple amino acids. It's not a big deal.
49:01🔗DrewIt can start to give you problems at a certain point.
49:03🔗AdamTums tastes pretty good though, I got to admit.
49:04🔗DrewYou're sure going to get constipated with all that too. Yeah. The calcium constipates. But 10 a day is not, you're not taking the double ones, are you?
49:13🔗DrewIf you can stick around 10, you're not going to hurt yourself, but you're also not going to help your costochondritis. Tums is for acid indigestion, basically reflux, that sort of thing.
49:23🔗DrewAnd costochondritis, you need anti-inflammatories, which will make your reflux and acid indigestion worse. But at 15, it'd be best if you could just take some physical therapy or chiropractic, something like that. Costochondritis is just basically spasm of the chest wall muscles. All right.
49:35🔗AdamBecause I had no idea what you were just talking about and I'm not even 15.
50:52🔗DrewYou know what? Three feet apart. I don't have my shoes on. I'm just pushing shoes around. See that?
50:57🔗AdamYou didn't feel your feet on my testicles earlier? Please stay away from that, for God's sakes. All right, my name is Stryker. I am filling in for Adam Corolla while he's gone. My main man mayonnaise. He'll be back on Sunday night. So here comes. So Adam's going to be there. What? Main man mayonnaise? Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, We're working with somebody who can read. Thank you. I just learned. Thank you, though. Yeah, what's up, Elise?
51:32🔗CallerI'm a double D, and I was thinking about getting a breast reduction, but I don't know what's involved in all of that, like if there's any side effects to it or...
51:53🔗DrewBut maybe a diet program and some weight loss in general would, because there's a lot of fat tissue there, it might reduce by itself, you think?
52:01🔗CallerYeah. When I did, a few years ago, I lost about 50 pounds, and they did reduce a little bit, but only to like a D, and I kind of want to be a C.
52:12🔗DrewOkay, and that's sort of most women's desired size. That's what most people are going for. As you know, Victoria last night was a C.
52:19🔗DrewSo she's D. I'm sorry, what? That's fine. What's involved, it's in anesthesia, the usual inherent risks of anesthesia, it's surgery, so the risks of bleeding and infection.
52:31🔗DrewWhat they typically do is, I believe they still do the inverted T, which is a line coming down from the nipple and then sort of a smiley face underneath the nipple, underneath the breast rather, and they reduce down to the size you're looking for.
52:44🔗AdamElise, do you think, and you may have already said this, but I was spacing out for a minute, if you just went on an amazing diet and worked out a bit and you went from 200 to 140, that the breast would go from double D to maybe a D, which is definitely smaller, what do you think about that route?
53:01🔗CallerThat sounds very good. Actually, I'm trying that now. I lost a lot of weight and then I went away to college.
53:09🔗DrewHow were you, be nice, how were you trying to lose the weight?
53:15🔗CallerWell I went on this weight loss group, kind of like Weight Watchers, and like I said I lost 50 pounds and then over, this is like last Christmas I gained 15 pounds and then...
53:25🔗DrewBut you're not doing anything goofy diet-wise?
53:27🔗CallerNo, no. I'm actually very health conscious. I, my major in college was dietetics.
53:33🔗DrewAlright, so you know what you're doing. Good.
53:56🔗DrewYeah, and it's like 240 calories or something.
53:58🔗AdamRight, it's not bad. But that commercial, they show him giving like thumbs up. Look how good, he's like on the beach in a tank top. Some amazing chick walks by going, hey look how good Kenny's looking. He's got a Subway sandwich. Oh, I love that. I want to be the spokesman for the Slurpee one day by the way. Oh, I love the cherry flavor. Rick, 17 on Loveline.
54:17🔗Oh yeah. Well, I have a little problem with it, you know, with women and all.
54:31🔗And the thing is, is that, you know, it doesn't seem like they're interested in me. Like, you know, first date, you know, basically screwed, you know.
55:24🔗Actually, I took a girl up in an airplane. You know, we were just running around town. We went to a movie. We went out to dinner. We went out to Scottsdale, you know.
55:46🔗AdamYou know, here's the thing. Step number one is the hardest thing is asking him out. And then once you got him out, are you just an idiot on these dates? You have the date planned out, but are you talking to him? Are you too shy?
55:57🔗CallerWell, I'm a little shy, but I kind of forced myself to talk a little more.
56:23🔗AdamHold on, Drew, I'm going to have to pull a Corolla here. Rick, can you hold on one sec? Thanks. I need a break for a minute. Rick, we're coming back to you. Find out what's, we'll try to figure it also, but think about what you do on the dates and why these women don't want to see you a second time, but at least you're asking them out for God's sakes. Alicia, 15 on Loveline.
57:39🔗DrewYeah, of course it's normal. Of course it's normal. That's cute. It's refreshing. God bless you.
57:45🔗AdamIf you were 18, me and you would be dating, Alicia.
57:47🔗DrewIt's quite a change from the 15-year-olds I'm used to talking to. What would we talk to earlier that sounds like they've been to Vietnam and back?
57:55🔗AdamThe girl from the trailer. Alicia, you're perfectly normal, perfectly healthy. When you're ready, do it.
58:00🔗DrewI'm more concerned about your friend and the quality of that friendship.
58:44🔗DrewOkay. Listen, when you're 23, you'll understand why he's a dick. That's the only thing I can tell you. But- Stryker, would you agree with me?
59:02🔗AdamHe is a guy who probably is a little, is extremely insecure, is afraid to go out with someone of his own age, and he knows, he knows, because he was 16 at one point, that all the 16-year-olds are flattered when a 23-year-old is attracted to them, or at least shows that they are, just so they can get a little lovin.
59:17🔗DrewI was in my second year of medical school at that age. I mean, that would be going back. Seriously, think about that. I mean, I have clinical rotations heading on back down to a high school.
59:29🔗AdamThat wouldn't hold. I got to ask you a question. Brandell?
1:00:32🔗AdamBrandell, please, I beg of you, I beg of you, get rid of this guy. He's 23. I swear, the guy is loony, a 23-year-old going out with a 16-year-old. He knows he can control you.
1:00:44🔗AdamOh, Dana, marry the man. Marry him, okay? All right, Brandell? Stay away. Goodbye. All right. Drew, I wasn't just a dick, as you said, was I?
1:01:00🔗Adam15, you're on Loveline. If you want to call in, by the way, wherever you're at, it's 1-800-LOVE-191. Go ahead, John.
1:01:07🔗CallerYeah, I was just wondering if you could get an FTD without actually having any contact.
1:01:13🔗DrewWell, you can get hepatitis and HIV through, you know, blood products and things like that.
1:01:20🔗AdamIs there anything sexually you can do, not intercourse, where you can get an STD, Dr. Drew?
1:01:24🔗DrewYou can get something called herpetic Whitlow, which is herpes of the fingertips, basically. And, you know, you can get that. It's hard, not an easy one to get, but you can get it.
1:01:34🔗AdamYou think you have something, John? Sorry to interrupt, Dr. Drew.
1:01:36🔗CallerWell, I'm not sure if it's like an STD or anything, but like, there's like a little bit of like a rash or something, itches kind of.
1:01:59🔗DrewWell, it's a delicate skin and it gets rashes. So it may just be an allergic rash sometime. If you aren't having sex, it ain't sexually transmitted.
1:03:09🔗DrewYeah, of course. That's how this happens, Cassidy. People aren't just into this accidentally, just because it's cool. Something causes you to be into this. You develop what people are calling a trajectory, a momentum in this direction. It gets set off by the biological changes and the emotional changes that occur when you're sexually abused. It's hard to be really connected and open with somebody in a real relationship that's physical when physical contact has had trauma attached to it when you were younger.
1:03:40🔗DrewYou gotta get treatment. You gotta get treatment. So she gets treatment. You're heading down a slippery slope. Okay? Are you an addict also?
1:03:56🔗DrewBecause that would sort of add more momentum to all this. It's bad news.
1:04:00🔗AdamSo what is the outcome of therapy? She's gonna talk about this and she's all of a sudden not gonna be obsessed with any group of sex.
1:04:06🔗DrewIf she really works hard and goes and connects with a therapist for a long period of time, it's possible that she will start to have real relationships and a lot of these symptoms will just quiet down.
1:04:17🔗DrewShe may still have weird compulsions with sex, but they won't be as sort of destructive.
1:04:20🔗AdamHow is a 17-year-old gonna tell her parents this and I need a therapy? Is there anything she can, any place she can call or anything like that?
1:04:29🔗DrewYeah, but one of the things she should do is tell her parents about the history, which they probably don't know about. Here's a child abuse hotline. It's 1-800-5404-1000. There's also 1-800-4H-child, 800-422-4453.
1:04:44🔗AdamAll right. So Cassidy, best thing to do, I guess, try to open up to your parents, let them know what went on. And I'm sure they'll be, if they're fine parents, they'll be glad to get you some real help. Sally, 19 on Loveline, what's up?
1:04:56🔗CallerYes, I hear all of these side effects, or not side effects, but problems that people have after they've been molested or after they've been...
1:05:06🔗CallerYeah. And if they've been in a household where they've been abused. And I have all of these different side effects, but I don't ever remember being molested.
1:05:18🔗DrewWhat are they? What are these experiences?
1:05:22🔗CallerJust inability to have relationships with guys or girls, friends or boyfriends. And the only way that I can get aroused now, I don't watch pornography all the time, but it's only by watching other people. And I like imagining rough, really rough sex.
1:05:43🔗DrewAnd nobody ever physically sort of manhandled you, strong, strong, you know, dealt with you physically in an aggressive way.
1:05:50🔗CallerNo, no. The only thing I can remember is just my dad's an alcoholic. And just remembering when I was a little girl that when somebody was drunk, I just remember thinking that that meant that they were perverted.
1:06:06🔗DrewHmm. That's interesting. I wonder if something happened when somebody was drunk. Yeah. You don't remember.
1:06:11🔗CallerFor the life of me, I cannot remember.
1:06:13🔗DrewHave you ever gone to Al-Anon or Alateen?
1:06:19🔗DrewDo you get any support about these feelings? Do you get any sort of, I think, worthwhile out of connecting with people who've been through things like this?
1:06:28🔗CallerThey didn't really talk about sexual experiences, but they were talking about how people can't really relate to other people in society and how they feel loneliness, and I connected with that.
1:06:37🔗DrewHere's the problem. You didn't get a sponsor.
1:06:40🔗DrewAnd if you don't get a sponsor, you're just listening to stories. You're not doing the work. The work requires you do it in intimate contact with the sponsor in a 12-step process. That's how the change occurs.
1:06:52🔗DrewThe stories are the stories, and they help you understand more fully the sort of full spectrum of how this disease affects people, but the change that needs to occur in you happens in an intimate contact with another person who's unconditionally available to you, the sponsor. To give it another try, right?
1:07:08🔗CallerOkay. And I also have another question. Yeah. I have had a relationship for the past couple of years. We've actually been broken up for about six months now with a very healthy individual, a man. And I just, I've come to the point where my feelings for him deadened. I feel really numb and I feel as if I can't even sit still around him. And I'm just wondering if it's the relationship or if it's me starting to get close to somebody.
1:07:39🔗DrewIt sounds, I can't, you know, it's a couple of minutes in the radio with you here. It sounds more like the latter, that this is somebody who's really available and you can't cope. So you got to get that sponsor and you got to work that stuff out in that safe environment of the 12-step and maybe you'll be available to this relationship then. That's how this kind of stuff works.
1:07:58🔗AdamI think maybe something did happen and she doesn't remember.
1:09:52🔗DrewThat would be good. Listen, I worked in a lot of emergency rooms. I was walking with stuff like this all the time. I can just see it.
1:09:58🔗AdamA man just crashed in a cyclist. Arm is falling off. Sir, may I help you? I have two, three, or four white things on my wiener.
1:10:04🔗DrewHelp me out. Believe me, the motorcycle accidents do not excite the young males as much as the things on their Schwanns. That's when they're being airlifted in. Right. Oh, my God, there's three pimples on my penis.
1:10:15🔗AdamBring this man in. Let's bring in all the students from the college. All right. Justin, 15 on Loveline. What's going on?
1:10:22🔗CallerAll right. Football started a few days ago, right? I'm actually pretty frequently, at least twice a day. For the most part, it's generally thick semen, right? Well, on Thursday, but before orgasm, it just flowed out really watery.
1:10:44🔗DrewBut your body is marshaling its resources for other things, like building muscle and sustaining stamina and stuff you're doing in football practice. It might even, at a certain point, over-exercising will actually lower your testosterone levels. Really? There's a sort of a curve to testosterone production with exercise that goes up to a certain point and then it starts to drop off the other side.
1:11:21🔗AdamAll right, man. See you later. All right. Let's talk to Jeff here on Loveline. 33, Jeff.
1:11:28🔗Yeah, I just was wondering what kind of information you had on gambling addiction.
1:11:33🔗AdamGambling addiction. All right. We got to take a quick break. We'll find out about gambling, roulette, blackjack. The point spread on us coming back is plus seven and a half with Stryker and Dr. Drew on Loveline.
1:11:43🔗StrykerHello, this is your radio. Loveline will be ready.
1:12:23🔗AdamNow my red hat gets a rap from these critics.
1:12:31🔗AdamOkay, you should listen to my program on K-Rock sometime. All right, it's Loveline, 1-800-LOVE-191, Stryker for Adam Corolla, along with Dr. Drew. We're gonna speak to Jeff about gambling. You know the 10th floor at the Hard Rock, at Hard Rock in Vegas? I built it, you know why? Because I've pissed away so much money in that freaking casino.
1:12:52🔗DrewOh really, so you got a problem too, huh?
1:12:53🔗AdamI don't know about a problem, but I've done my share of gambling for many a year. Jeff?
1:13:10🔗DrewOkay, well here's the deal. Most in my experience, the more severe gambling addictions, in fact almost always in my experience, have followed or been concurrent with some other chemical addiction. So is there alcohol or anything else going on here?
1:13:45🔗AdamBecause of the pause in the beginning. You've done something, but just tell us. Did you drink at some point and you quit cold turkey or what?
1:13:54🔗CallerWell, younger years I used to drink, yeah.
1:13:57🔗DrewAll right. Did you smoke pot regularly, too?
1:14:46🔗DrewWell, most of them. Predominantly. We are done.
1:14:50🔗AdamAddicted to gambling. Is there a number to call for gambling? You know offhand?
1:14:53🔗DrewYou can call AA and get a referral to GA. I'm just trying to establish whether or not you're actually an addict or just excessively in the game.
1:14:59🔗AdamYou understand why I put it back on hold? Because we're not getting anywhere.
1:15:15🔗CallerYes. This question is for Dr. Drew. I cannot ejaculate any other way besides masturbating. I've been at like 20 girls, I don't know, since the teens or whatever and just never been able to work.
1:15:31🔗AdamHow many times a day do you do it to yourself?
1:15:35🔗CallerI don't know. No more than once, really. Not every day, but I don't know.
1:15:39🔗DrewDo you ever try sort of holding back for a while before you have sex?
1:15:51🔗AdamDeez nuts? No. It didn't work. See? You can't fool Stryker. Don't even try it, Sean. See you later. Where did that come from? It's, you know, we don't even know where it come from.
1:16:01🔗DrewThat was last night, right? It happened to me? No. It happened last week.
1:16:04🔗DrewYeah, and I've never heard it before that.
1:16:06🔗AdamI tried it with Cypress Hill when they were on my show. Where did it come from? It came from, I think, Dr. Dre's album a few years ago. Oh, do you know Bill from the hospital?
1:17:17🔗CallerI come home last night, and I come inside my apartment, and I can tell right off the bat that something's the matter, because my mother, she normally wakes up for me, you know?
1:17:28🔗CallerSo I go in the back room, and I see her. She's watching the television with the lights off, right? And her eyes is all red, and her face is puffed up. I said, Mom, what the hell happened to you? You know? She said, Oh, don't worry about it. Go to bed. Go to bed. Go to bed. And I said, You know what happened? So today, I find out that my downstairs neighbor had gone out to argument with my mother about some money she owes him, and he hit her, right? So I swear to God, I was so pissed off. I was going to kill this guy.
1:18:01🔗CallerWell, my cousin, he got into trouble and she needed to borrow some money to get him out of trouble.
1:18:08🔗AdamSo she borrowed money from the neighbor to bail your cousin out?
1:18:11🔗CallerAnd then she's having a lot of trouble paying him back, and this guy just hit her, and I swear to God, I was going to kill this guy. I go downstairs, I bang on the apartment door, like pfft, pfft, pfft. No answer. Every time I think of this guy, I swear to God, I feel like killing him.
1:18:26🔗DrewBut if you take the law into your own hands, your mom's gonna need more bail money. You know, it's not, why don't you file a report? I know you guys don't seem to have a lot of trust out for the police, but sorry when I touch you, Stryker, I know it's very disturbing to you. But file a report for assault. File charges on this guy.
1:18:46🔗CallerWell, the problem is that my mother, she doesn't want my father to know that she bought money, because she knows that my father doesn't have that kind of money to be paying back money to this guy.
1:18:58🔗AdamBut isn't he going to see the marks on your mom's face?
1:19:01🔗CallerMy father, he works, he comes back every once in a while. He has a traveling salesman kind of deal.
1:19:09🔗AdamWell Patrick, all I can say, and I'm no expert in this, I'm just sitting in here, a normal guy, but don't take the law in your hands, man. I mean, you sound like a good guy, tough guy, just don't go killing your neighbor, man. If someone hit my mom, I'd go crazy and I'd want to kill this person, just go nuts on them. But you got to just collect yourself and Spike Lee said, do the right thing. Call the cops. I mean, you know.
1:19:37🔗DrewFile a report, you got to do it. It's the only way you're going to get any satisfaction out of this, and even that's going to be nominal. I'd be looking for my opportunity with this guy myself. You know what I mean?
1:20:00🔗CallerOkay, see, I have a boyfriend, and okay, we've been doing it frequently, and it's just not doing anything for me, so I've been going behind his back and doing it with older men.
1:21:12🔗CallerNo, she said I was developed, and so I didn't like to stop.
1:21:14🔗DrewNo, no, no. Hey, hey, your brain was 12. Your brain's what we're talking about here, not your body, your brain. And your brain really isn't able to manage all this till you're about 16. That's just the way the brain develops. And that means you were sexually abused at 12. It also means that something was happening to you that put you at risk for such victimization at 12. Somebody hit you before that? No. Nobody ever raised their hand to you? No. Did you ever run away from home?
1:21:54🔗DrewDo you understand that being hit by your parents puts you at risk for victimization later? It doesn't matter if you fought back. It doesn't matter what. Being physically abused is what causes people to run away from home. It's one of the contributing factors to them being acted upon by victimizers at a young age. Now, that sets you up to be sexually compulsive and to feel like you can never get what you need out of sex and to be sort of, again, this sort of trajectory and the momentum and the direction of multiple, multiple partners try to get some sort of satisfaction from sex. It ain't never going to happen that way.
1:22:30🔗AdamSo what's the first thing Shelby needs to do?
1:22:32🔗DrewThe first thing is stop, stop, stop, stop all this, okay? It's going to make you feel awful about yourself. It's not going to make you feel good no matter what you do, no matter what physical experience you look for. And the best thing you can do is to, God, should get treatment, frankly, but at least try to have a stable relationship with somebody and keep good friends around you. At least do that.
1:22:54🔗AdamShe's got to just somehow mentally convince herself, stop sleeping with as many guys to look for something because she ain't going to find it.
1:23:01🔗AdamAll right. It's Loveline and Courtney is 18 and you're here. Hello.
1:23:07🔗CallerHi. My name is Courtney. I'm 18. I don't know if it's a problem, but if I had the choice, I would much rather go down on a guy than have him go down on me.
1:23:38🔗DrewThe intercourse is an okay thing for you?
1:23:39🔗CallerYeah. It's all fine. But like, if I had the choice, if I could just like give a blow job, I'd just much rather. I don't know. Is there something wrong with that?
1:23:50🔗AdamThere's nothing wrong with that. There's going to be guys lining outside your door for miles and miles. You know that, Courtney? No, I don't think that's a problem, Dr. Drew.
1:24:18🔗CallerI've just never had any type of sex drive. And I'm just starting to affect my marriage a little bit. And just wondering if there's some type of hormonal imbalance.
1:25:09🔗CallerNo. In fact, I've been off the pill for three years because it always made me feel bad. Again, I'm trying to have a baby.
1:25:16🔗DrewI'm trying to establish, is it that you don't like it, you don't want to do it, or you really just have no libido?
1:25:23🔗CallerI just really have no libido. I mean, sometimes it really hurts. So I guess maybe now it might be more of, you know, I'm kind of scared.
1:25:34🔗DrewAnything we should know about your history?
1:25:36🔗CallerWell, I was sort of abused. I had a cousin who touched me a couple of times, but it was never, you know, never vaginally or anything like that. It was just like a touch. And then my father's best friend one time groped me, but, you know, like I said, it was never, never anything more than that.
1:25:57🔗DrewOkay. Again, that's obviously not good for you, but it shouldn't necessarily shut you down completely. Yeah. You're not depressed?
1:26:18🔗CallerWell, if it was up to me, we'd probably only have sex maybe once a month. But a lot of times, I just go ahead and once we're finally into it, I have an orgasm and I enjoy it. It's just I never-
1:26:44🔗DrewIt may just be you. Maybe that's just your biology. It's a little lower than average, but that may just be you.
1:26:50🔗AdamI think Sheila, would you like it more if he paid more attention before the sex actually happened? Do you guys just get right into the sex or is he romantic, the kissing?
1:27:06🔗CallerNo, no. I mean, he does the whole, anything, he does everything and I mean, I am completely a poor guy, you know. I never give him oral sex. I mean, he's always into doing that for me, anything I want.
1:27:22🔗AdamGot it. All right. Well, I don't know how to get the libido up, except maybe a couple of pineapples could do it for her, I think. I think that really works.
1:28:15🔗AdamLoveline is back. That's us. 1-800-LOVE-191, Stryker for Adam Corolla along with Dr. Drew. And during break I mentioned, I heard pineapple makes it taste better when it flies out of the old ding ding ding.
1:28:29🔗DrewI know. And our usual point of this show is, you know, you can eat everything you want, eat souffle and marshmallows and fresh cherries and your poop, still gonna taste like poop if you want to try to make it taste different. Eating something different is not gonna make it taste different. Things come out of your body or the same things come out of your body no matter what you put into it, basically.
1:28:50🔗AdamI beg to do it. No, you're a doctor, who am I?
1:29:19🔗CallerWell, the other day, me and my boyfriend were going at it a lot, like all day almost. And I think it was the very next day. I'd never had a yeast infection before, so I don't really know what it looks like. But I had something I think was kind of similar to it.
1:29:38🔗DrewWell, it sounds like it's at least temporarily related, as you did something and something happened a day later. That makes sense it would be connected. You can get a vaginitis. You can get irritation in the vagina, discharge, that sort of thing. And yeast is one of the causes, and that usually has sort of a cottage cheesy-like discharge. But there are other bacterial vaginitis, vaginidities that can be treated and should be treated because they are associated with other problems.
1:30:01🔗CallerYeah, I got some anti-itch stuff for it, and now it's gone, but it still itches.
1:30:06🔗DrewNo, you should try some of the monistat, or the over-the-counter vaginal yeast creams, and if that doesn't work, then you got to see the doctor.
1:30:13🔗CallerI have another question. My boyfriend told me that a while ago, he has a record of masturbating, and he says that...
1:31:00🔗CallerI'm pregnant. And the guy that I'm pregnant by smokes a lot of weed. Would that affect my child in any way?
1:31:08🔗DrewWell, if you were locked in a car cabin or something with him smoking pot.
1:31:12🔗CallerNo, but I'm saying, you know, cause I know they used to say, well, if you smoke weed, it's hard for you to get pregnant from the guy, you know, if the guy smokes weed.
1:31:20🔗DrewYeah, it is. That's true. But you are pregnant already.
1:31:23🔗DrewThere is some report, and this has not been substantiated, of an increased risk of orthopedic problems, like extra fingers and that sort of thing, in the children of pot-smoking dads. In my experience, it's a non-issue. The only thing that you have to worry about the child inheriting is the genetic potential for addiction.
1:31:50🔗AdamAll right. 1-800-LOVE-191. We'll try to squeeze as many as we can in here before we got to go. Jerry, 35 on Loveline.
1:31:59🔗CallerYeah. I have a real daughter who's 12 now, and a stepdaughter who's 21, and a stepdaughter sexually abused my real daughter when she was six, and the real one was 15. So it was six years ago.
1:33:09🔗CallerWhat should I look for, or what should she look for?
1:33:12🔗DrewA lability, like, lots of moods that will fluctuate, maybe even some rebelliousness and sexual activity, drug use.
1:33:23🔗CallerOkay, I don't think there is any of that.
1:33:25🔗DrewGood. But I would definitely ask about it.
1:33:27🔗AdamDoes your ex-wife know that that went on?
1:33:30🔗CallerYeah, but I don't think she believed it. I think she all, she tied it in with our divorce. She probably thought I wanted custody of the younger one.
1:33:42🔗DrewNo, you gotta ask the questions. You gotta ask the questions about your child.
1:33:56🔗DrewWell, the daughter needs a chance to talk about whatever. And I would certainly open up, she's 12. You're sort of at the last minutes of this potential for establishing dialogues with your kids. If you miss between the 8 and 12, if they turn 12, you lose them. So give an opportunity to talk to her about whatever. Spend lots of time talking to her.
1:34:15🔗AdamSo you think he should talk to his daughter or the wife?
1:34:17🔗DrewThe wife for sure, but the daughter, but spend time establishing a dialogue with the daughter as well.
1:34:27🔗CallerI got a problem almost a couple weeks ago. I wanted to have sex with a hooker and I didn't have like completely sex because I was, like after three or four times I had it like in there and something. I changed my mind. Okay. And the very next day, ever since that time, I have diarrhea. I was looking yesterday on the computer searching the internet. I think they call it chronic diarrhea because I had it more than like 10 days.
1:35:01🔗DrewSam, this is why the internet is a dangerous instrument for people that have no experience. I understand that one of the reasons we know how to assess people's positions is we see things a zillion times. And just having the information is where you begin your training, not where you establish a diagnosis. You probably just have irritable bowel from being so nervous about having been through this experience.
1:35:23🔗AdamSo you had sex with her, Sam, or you didn't?
1:35:26🔗CallerActually, I had it like after like four or five times I inserted it in her and...
1:35:31🔗AdamWhat do you mean four or five times? What?
1:35:33🔗CallerLike, I had my thing in her like four or five times.
1:35:49🔗CallerYes. Yeah, I was actually. And I had all these ideas, for example, like you may get any kind of STDs and stuff.
1:35:57🔗DrewYeah, look, but you're totally flipped out and that will give you diarrhea.
1:36:00🔗AdamYour mind is playing tricks on you, Sam.
1:36:02🔗CallerOkay. No, but the thing is, like, I tried all kinds of stuff, for example, the Imodium, and I changed. I had like kind of such diet, for example, you know, yogurt and stuff, trying to cool down this diarrhea. But ever since that time, I still have that diarrhea.
1:36:31🔗DrewAll right. So this could be a traveler's diarrhea, could be Giardia. You try two Imodium, not more than eight per day, get dairy out of your diet, get roughage out, no fresh fruits or vegetables, just well-cooked fruits. And if it's not better in two days, then you see a gastroenterologist, you get stool, you're a regular doctor, you get stool studies done, and you'll see what's causing it. There'll be a bacteria causing it, I'm sure.
1:36:49🔗AdamWas that the first time you've ever seen a hooker, Sam?
1:37:58🔗DrewNo, don't thank him for anything. Do not give him credit.
1:38:00🔗AdamMy main man mayonnaise. And thanks to everyone that called in and was so cool to me for filling in for Adam, because I listen to Loveline all the time, driving home from when I do my radio show out here before you guys. Big shoes to fill, but he does well. And Adam will be back on Sunday on Loveline. So for Dr. Drew, this is Stryker saying, Shalom.
