Asked for Male, 23
I don't have any feelings. Neither joy nor sorrow is felt. It has been like this for the last four months. What to do now?
Answered on 17th Jan '25
Experiencing a lack of emotions can be concerning and might indicate underlying conditions such as depression or anxiety. It’s important to recognize that you’re not alone in feeling this way, and there are ways to regain emotional balance. Consider reaching out to a mental health professional who can provide personalized support and explore potential treatments. Engaging in activities you once enjoyed, maintaining a routine, and connecting with supportive friends or family can also be beneficial. Please take the step to seek guidance from a psychiatrist, as they can help you through this challenging time.

M My name is hifza i am 19 year old i am very depressed for previous four months.i need sleep and peaceful dreams. My half head pain for all time and my hair swiftly loss and my bones are very week
Answered on 16th Jan '25
It’s understandable to feel overwhelmed after experiencing persistent sadness, headaches, and hair loss. These symptoms can arise from stress, anxiety, or lack of proper nutrition. To alleviate discomfort, consider establishing a regular sleep schedule, practicing relaxation techniques, and maintaining a balanced diet rich in vitamins. Staying hydrated and gentle exercise can also help strengthen your bones. However, I encourage you to seek guidance from a psychiatrist who can provide tailored advice and support.

Answered on 17th Jan '25
Symptoms like heightened worry, restlessness, and difficulty sleeping can arise from trauma. This anxiety can be linked to the body’s natural response to stress. Engaging in calming activities, such as deep breathing exercises, mindfulness, or light physical activity, may help soothe your mind. Additionally, consider reaching out for support from friends or professionals who can guide you through this process. While distractions from your daughters are beneficial, talking to a therapist specializing in trauma can provide further relief. Remember, seeking professional help is a positive step toward healing.

I have difficulty falling asleep from few weeks i close my eyes but i cant sleep
Answered on 7th Jan '25
This can be due to various factors, including stress, anxiety, or changes in routine. It often leads to fatigue and irritability, which can impact daily life. To improve your situation, could you set up a calming bedtime routine, limit screen time before sleeping, and ensure your sleeping environment is comfortable and dark. Regular physical activity can also promote better rest. However, if these strategies do not help, speaking with a healthcare professional would be best.
Asked for Male, 38
My husband diagnosed with tuberculosis and during his treatment time his behaviour change suddenly, trying to detach from families, n relation , sleep increased during day time. Sometime even telling me to end our relationship
Answered on 7th Jan '25
Changes in mood and behavior during tuberculosis treatment can be from various factors, including the illness itself, medication side effects, or psychological stress. Increased sleepiness and withdrawal are not uncommon but can be concerning. Communication is essential here. Gently encourage your husband to express his feelings, and it may also be beneficial to consult with a psychiatrist. They can assess his mental well-being and provide support tailored to his needs.

Factors such as stress, changes in routine, or anxiety can contribute to this challenge.

Tension aksar anxiety, neend ki kami, ya zyada pressure ki wajah se hoti hai. Symptoms mein chinta, neend nahi aana, ya thakaan shamil ho sakti hai.

Asked for Female, 41
I am a 41 year old female and I haven't slept in 2 days last night I couldn't sleep and tonight I can't sleep. I have had instances where I can't sleep throughout the night but I have never been unable to sleep at all. I'm very worried.
Answered on 6th Jan '25
Several possible reasons exist, such as stress, anxiety, lifestyle changes, or medical conditions. To sleep better, try to make a soothing nighttime habit such as rigorous studies or gentle exercise. Cut down the amount of caffeine in your diet. If the situation continues for; even a few nights, then counseling with a health professional is highly recommended. They would help you recognize any background issues and suggest appropriate actions that will work best for you.

Answered on 2nd Jan '25
Habitual symptoms of hyperbolic headaches, insomnia, xerostomia, lacrimation, panic attacks, sweating, and the appearance of discomfort in the chest make the situation difficult to bear. These signs and symptoms may be a consequence of stress, anxiety, or any other medical problems hidden deeply. It is important to confront these emotions in a constructive and useful way. Among the activities involved are relaxation techniques, drinking enough water, and maintaining a regular sleep schedule. Remember that a thorough check-up with a healthcare professional is crucial to resolving this. He can decode the needed informations and help align you with the right specialists. Keep in mind that this is a positive action that is associated with regaining a good physical and mental state.
Asked for Female, 21
Hi, I am on the contraceptive implant and have been experiencing anxiety. Should I get this out?
Answered on 31st Dec '24
When it comes to using a contraceptive implant, it's common to feel worried about anxiety. The hormonal changes caused by this method, on rare occasions, can sometimes cause mood swings. First of all, it can be extremely helpful to track when these feelings appear and any other symptoms you notice. Maybe, you can consider going to your doctor for a discussion, since he/she can scientifically evaluate your condition and propose other therapies in case of need. Keep in mind, you are not the only person in this situation and the medical practitioner can help you ease your panic and will apply a resolution suitable specifically for your needs. Your comfort and health are important, so please reach out to the required specialist for advice.
