If you notice any unhealthy leaves, you can simply remove them with your fingers. Rip the leaves where the discoloration starts so only the green areas remain. Look around the entirety of your plants and remove any discolored areas.  Use gardening scissors instead of your fingers if it is easier for you. This keeps your plants looking great and reduces the risk of disease. If you want your leaves to look polished and symmetrical, cut your leaves at an angle. Follow the shape of the other uncut leaves to make your leaves look realistic. This way, you can't even notice the leaves were trimmed! The cane refers to the stem of the plant. Use your fingers to separate the leaf from the cane, and use a pair of gardening scissors to cut off the leaf. Do this for any brown or wilted leaves you find. Make your cuts as close to the cane as you can.

Summary: Peel off any brown or yellow areas on the leaves using your hands. Cut your leaves to resemble the others if you want a uniform look. Snip off any damaged leaves growing out of the base of the cane.


Anti-anxiety medication is better known as benzodiazepines. These types of medication are considered tranquilizers because they help slow down the brain and body. They work quickly and can be taken during an anxiety attack.  Common anti-anxiety meds include Xanax, Klonopin, Valium, or Ativan. Anti-anxiety medication can lead to dependence when taken for longer than four months. This type of medication can interact negatively with alcohol, painkillers, and sleeping pills. High risk individuals for taking anxiety medication include people over 65, pregnant women, and those with a history of substance abuse. Stopping taking anxiety medication suddenly may cause withdrawal. This may include increased anxiety, insomnia, shaking, rapid heartbeat, sweating, and disorientation. Common antidepressant medications are used to treat anxiety. Antidepressants have a lower risk for dependence and substance abuse. When using antidepressants, it may take over a month to feel the effects.  Common antidepressants used for anxiety include Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Lexapro, and Celexa. Stopping taking antidepressants can cause severe depression, fatigue, irritability, anxiety, insomnia, and flu-like symptoms. Buspirone is a newer mild tranquilizer used as anti-anxiety medication. This medicine acts slower than other anxiety medication. The effects may take around two weeks to start working.  Buspirone doesn't have the same side effects as other anxiety medications. It doesn't lead to dependence as easily, there are only minor withdrawal symptoms, and it doesn't impair cognitive function as badly. Buspirone has been shown to be most effective with generalized anxiety disorder. This may be a good option for people over 65 of those with a history of substance abuse. Beta blockers and antihistamines are sometimes used to help with anxiety. They are mostly used in connection with norepinephrine and the fight-or-flight response. Beta blockers and antihistamines can help relieve physical symptoms connected with anxiety but does nothing for the emotional symptoms.  These medications can help with things like shaking, dizziness, and pounding heart. They may be helpful if you have phobias or performance anxiety. Each of the different types of medications used to treat anxiety have side effects. These side effects can vary from minor to severe. Before choosing a medication, weigh the side effects next to the benefits to make the right choice for you.  Anti-anxiety medication can cause drowsiness, slow reflexes, slurred speech, disorientation, depression, dizziness, impaired thinking, memory loss, upset stomach, and blurred vision. Some people may experience the opposite of the calming effects, experiencing mania, rage, aggression, impulsive behavior, or hallucinations. Antidepressants may cause nausea, weight gain, drowsiness, headaches, nervousness, decreased libido, upset stomach, and dizziness. Buspirone can cause stomach problems, such as nausea, constipation, or diarrhea, headaches, drowsiness, dry mouth, and dizziness. Beta blockers can cause abnormally slow pulse, nausea, light-headedness, and sleepiness. Each anxiety medication has characteristics that may influence your choice. You should think about whether you need immediate relief for a phobia or anxiety/panic attack, or whether you need something longer lasting. You should also think about whether you fit into a risk group for a particular medication, if you have medication or lifestyle choices that interfere with the meds, or if dependence is a concern.  If you need immediate help for panic or anxiety attacks, anti-anxiety medication like Xanax, Klonopin, Valium, or Ativan may be right for you. If you want a medication for longer management, try antidepressants. Beta blockers and antihistamines may be a good choice if you have a very specific phobia. If you have a history of substance abuse, antidepressants or Buspirone may work well. These two may also work well if you are over 65.

Summary: Take anti-anxiety medication. Take antidepressant medications. Try Buspirone. Use beta blockers or antihistamines for performance anxiety. Identify the side effects of the different medications. Choose the right medication for you.


chop up some onions and garlic until they are finely diced. You can use use any kind of onions but green onions or leeks produce the best results as they are the most pungent. Shred up five large leaves of cabbage. Get a pint sized clear glass jar with a lid and scoop the ingredients into it. Add a small lock of either human hair or animal hair to the mix. The hair should rest on top of the mix and be intact as a bundle; this makes the next step easier. (Optional) For an even nastier stench, add one match head to the bundle of hair. Close the lid on the jar and then poke two holes in the lid to allow oxygen to flow into the jar (this will make the bundle of hair burn better inside the jar). Next use a magnifying glass to shine a beam through the jar and onto the bundle of hair until it starts to smoke inside the jar. you want to burn as much hair as possible.If you went with the optional in the last step, shine the beam on the match head. Put two pieces of tape over the holes in the lid and let the smoke filled jar sit in direct sunlight and leave it alone;this heats up the ingredients and lets them blend, and permeate everything in the jar. once the smoke inside the jar has settled, take the pieces of tape off the both holes This is to help the ingredients decompose inside the jar. after about a week, open the jar and take a whiff to see if its stink has blended enough. Only do this outside, NEVER in your house or anywhere else you don't want to badly stink up. Remember, the longer you leave it, the more wicked it's stench will be. A good indicator that it's ready is being able to detect a whiff from a few feet away after two or three weeks. Either open or break the jar in the area you want to stink and watch as people rapidly clear away from the obnoxious, haunting, suffocating stench. An alternative way of doing this is instead of using the whole jar, screen the rancid juice from the putrid mix with an old strainer into a small 2 Oz. pump spray bottle (one of those small clear plastic ones used for travel) and spray where you want to stink, just don't get caught and don't get any of this on you otherwise you will be in for a very smelly time.
Summary: Get the primary ingredients. Throw into a jar. Add the hair. Close and burn. Tape and let it sit. Brace yourself for the test. Unleash.
