Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Coat your underarm rash lightly in talcum powder or baby powder. Take a warm (but not hot) bath with colloidal oatmeal. Try some relaxation techniques. Eat more vitamin C.

Answer: Talcum powder and baby powder can absorb sweat and reduce the friction that causes and worsens armpit rashes.  Using it daily, even if you don’t have an armpit rash, can prevent future rashes.  Simply scoop a bit of the powder up with the tip of your finger and pat it gently onto your armpit.  Using powders can get messy and leave white streaks on your clothing, so use them with caution, and avoid wearing your finest tops when applying powder. If you’ve recently applied a medicated anti-itch cream, wait until the cream is absorbed into your skin before applying powder. Grind six cups of unflavored rolled oats into a fine powder using your food processor.  Fill a bath with warm water and, as the water fills the tub, add 2 to 3 cups of this oatmeal powder.  Soak in the bath for 10 to 15 minutes, being sure to submerge your armpit.  Pat yourself dry with a towel when you’re finished with the bath. Colloidal oatmeal refers to oats that have been finely milled and suspended in a liquid.  It can soothe the skin and help heal your armpit rash. Yoga or meditation might help you relax more and keep your mind off the irritation of the rash.  Listening to calming music, talking to a friend, or going for a pleasant nature hike might help, too.  Any of your hobbies or interests could help you refocus your attention and make you feel more comfortable. Vitamin C nurtures and restores your skin.  Oranges, tomatoes, and broccoli are great sources of vitamin C.  Find ways to incorporate them into your diet by, for instance, drinking orange juice or eating a broccoli salad.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Find a skullcap or headband. Punch holes into the rim of the cap. Sew a cord through the feather loops and cap holes. Add another cord (optional). Attach a browband (optional). Add side drops (optional). Make and attach rosettes (optional).

Answer: Sometimes called a crown, the typical base for a warbonnet is a round cap made from leather or felt. You may also use a long strip of material that can wrap around the wearer's head and be laced together. If intended to be worn, rather than displayed, the cap should be cut so it fits the wearer's head, extending just above the eyebrows and halfway down the ears.  Traditionally, this skullcap or headband was made from buffalo or deerskin. You can make your own crown by curling a piece of leather or felt into a dome, cutting off the overlap, then stitching the two pieces together. Lay the feathers out along the cap or band at regular intervals. Punch holes along the rim of the cap with an awl, or cut small slits using a sharp knife. There should be two holes per feather, directly on either side of the quill stem. The feathers of a warbonnet generally extend at minimum from one ear to the other, curving over the forehead. Feathers can also be worn individually or in small groups on the forehead, as a lesser status symbol. Attach the feathers to the cap by sewing a waxed leather cord through the holes on the cap, and through the feather loops, in the order you arranged them. Tie off the cord at each end with a strong knot, using glue to strengthen it if necessary. You may use strong thread instead, but this is unlikely to last. Ideally, the feathers should stay straight and parallel to each other, or flared outward in a cone shape. If the feathers fall in other directions, you may punch additional holes in the cap, halfway between the dome and the rim. Sew a second cord around the quills at this location to keep them in place. Many warbonnets, but not all, have a beaded or quilled browband displayed on the wearer's forehead. You can buy ready-made browbands at some stores, or you can make your own by gluing colored beads onto a strip of felt or leather. To attach a browband, sew it on from the center outward with a leather cord or strong thread. Sew in holes no more than ½" (1¼ cm) apart. Consider purchasing the browband from a Native American tribe of the Great Plains, to support the original practitioners of the tradition. Another common decoration or status symbol, the side drops are two long strips of fur, one hanging from each side of the warbonnet just above the ears. Traditionally, ermine tails were used, but long strips of white rabbit fur are more easily available. Sew them on using the same cord you used for the feathers or browband. The term "rosette" refers to any circular decoration on the side of the warbonnet. These may be made from beads, fur, or even additional feathers tied in a circular position. They are usually attached using additional leather cords, and may cover up the attachment points for the side drops.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Identify your fear. Spend time alone. Strengthen your sense of identity. Get help breaking the pattern.

Answer:
Most of the time, feelings of neediness or dependence are rooted in fear. Think about how you would feel if the person you’re dependent on left. Ask yourself what in particular scares you about that scenario. For instance, if you’re emotionally dependent on the person you’re dating, you might have an underlying fear of feeling unlovable. Find a time when you won’t be interrupted, and sit quietly with yourself for a while. Notice where your mind goes and what kind of urges you experience. You may find some thought patterns or habits you weren’t previously aware of. Don’t distract yourself by checking your phone or tidying your room when you do this exercise. Devote all your attention to introspection, even if it’s uncomfortable. Think about who you really are when you’re not trying to please anybody else. Identify your core values, the things you want to achieve, and your idiosyncrasies. Work on building a sense of self that doesn’t depend on external validation. If you don’t have a strong sense of identity, step out of your comfort zone and explore some new things by yourself. See which activities, people, and ideas resonate with you. If you feel locked in a cycle of emotional dependency and can’t manage to break out on your own, don’t be afraid to seek help. Talk to a trusted friend or relative, or get help from a counselor or therapist.
