If you are old enough to move out on your own, then you may want to consider it as a way to improve your relationship with your parents. It may be difficult for your parents to see you as an adult until you have moved out of their house.  Before you do anything drastic, make sure that you are financially able to live on your own and that you are ready for the responsibility. Living on your own can be expensive and difficult. If you are not quite ready to move out on your own, consider asking your parents if you can help out by paying for your own car insurance, paying one of the utility bills, or even paying them a set amount for rent. This will help to show them that you are mature and give you some good practice for living on your own. Whether you are still living at home or living on your own, it is important to maintain a healthy distance from your parents. Make sure that you keep an active social life with your friends, work hard in school and/or your job, and pursue hobbies and other interests that do not involve your parents. The less that you demonstrate your parents that you need their help, the more they will begin to see you as an adult. Try to avoid asking your parents for things if you can including advice, money, and stuff. If you have a problem, try your best to solve it on your own before going straight to your parents. Of course, sometimes it may be necessary to turn to your parents for help. If your parents do give you something or help you to solve a problem, be gracious and thank them for their help. Keep in mind that although you may behave like an adult and even be a legal adult, your parents may always view you as a kid because you are their child. Try your best to focus on yourself and not to be so concerned about what your parents think of you. Remember that your opinion of yourself is what matters the most.

Summary: Find your own place to live. Maintain a healthy distance. Be more self-reliant. Try not to care as much about what your parents think.


to maintain your good health. Good nutrition alone won’t cure H. pylori. That said, natural health philosophies recommend whole, unprocessed foods for general health, which may improve your immune system response and support a healthier microbiome. A healthy diet includes:  High quality lean protein like poultry and fish Fresh vegetables and fruit (in a variety of rich colors) Beans and legumes, such as lentils Complex carbohydrates from vegetables and whole grains Certain foods may have an antibiotic effect against H. pylori. However, they don’t work the same way for everyone, and the effects are often minimal. You may want to include them in your diet as an extra boost in fighting your infection. The following foods could help treat H. pylori:  Green tea Red wine Manuka honey Broccoli sprouts Although nutrition is not as simple as "natural versus artificial," most processed foods are less nutritious and may include substances with negative side effects (sometimes including suppressed immune response). Avoiding them may lead to better overall health, but it's unlikely to have a direct effect on the H. pylori.  To check if a product is processed/packaged, check the ingredient list.  The longer the list is, the more processed the food is. Processed foods are most often found in the center aisles in grocery stores. Less processed foods are found around the outer aisles and would include dry beans, fresh fruits and vegetables, brown rice, bulk foods and single-ingredient foods. Stay away from “quick and easy” ready-to-eat meals. Again, these tend to be highly processed and contain preservatives and other chemicals that are not really food. Green tea, red wine, and manuka honey have also shown antibiotic activity against H. pylori. Many of these studies, however, were done in bacterial cultures or lab animals, so there is no human dosage information available. It is probably safe to include green tea and manuka honey in your diet but to drink red wine in moderation.  These may help with an infection.
Summary: Eat a nutritious diet Incorporate foods that may help treat your infection. Minimize processed and packaged foods. Try consuming other helpful foods.
