Questions & Answers on "Psychiatrist" (501)

I accidentally took too many Flexeril tablets last year. I got inside the car and fell asleep while parking. I found the parking spot, proceeded to put the car in park and fell asleep. I awoke to the sound of a lady's voice asking me was I ok. Since, I've felt really foggy and away from life. Less warmth and color to life, I think it has affected an area of my brain. I have since been worried about the overdose, did I actually die and awake or did I just fall asleep. Due to a lack of insurance, I haven't been able to see a doctor. I'm curious if it causes death or just asleep. Also, I've never fallen asleep easily, not even while driving, if tired.

It's understandable to feel concerned after experiencing an episode like this. Flexeril, a muscle relaxant, can cause drowsiness and cognitive clouding, especially in higher doses. Symptoms such as feeling foggy or disconnected can occur, but are often temporary. It's unlikely that you experienced death; more likely, you were deeply relaxed or asleep. I encourage you to seek medical advice, as a psychiatrist can assess your symptoms and provide appropriate support. If insurance is an issue, look for community clinics that offer low-cost services.

I am a 27 year old male struggling with severe everyday anxiety for 2 years. My anxiety causes me to have sleepless nights and sometimes it feels like I'm Going to lose my mind or lose control of my entire body.

Male | 27

High levels of anxiety can interfere with your sleep and make things seem very scary. It's normal to have racing thoughts, restlessness, and physical symptoms such as sweating or shaking. This comes from a mix of genetics, brain chemistry, and the things you've been through. Speaking with a psychitrist is the best way to manage anxiety through therapy or medication.

Male | 65

Feeling very sleepy in the morning could be a side effect of your medications, venlafaxine, and vortioxetine. It is important to talk to your psychiatrist about this issue, as they can review your medication and make any necessary adjustments. Please visit your psychiatrist for further advice and proper management.

I’ve had trouble falling asleep for as long as I can remember. No matter how tired I am, it takes me at least an hour or more to fall asleep. My mind keeps racing even when I try to stop thinking, and my eyes often feel too dry or flicker involuntarily when I close them. I only fall asleep when I reach complete exhaustion. This has severely affected my daily life, including my ability to attend school. I’ve spoken to doctors before, and they suggested it might be a mental health issue, but I haven’t been able to get proper help. What kind of specialist should I see, and what could be causing this?

Female | 16

It's understandable to feel frustrated with your sleep difficulties. The symptoms you describe, such as racing thoughts and eye discomfort, could suggest underlying issues like anxiety or sleep disorders. Consulting a sleep specialist or a mental health professional may be beneficial, as they can assess your situation comprehensively. Techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) or relaxation exercises might help. It's vital to prioritize your well-being, so please consider reaching out to a psychiatrist who can guide you toward effective treatment options.

Hi, I got prescribed sertraline 50mg and wanted to start treatment. However, I took St John’s wort 3 days ago. Is this safe for me to start sertraline treatment tomorrow?

Female | 22

Sertraline helps with depression and anxiety. St. John's Wort is an herb that doesn't mix well with sertraline. Together, they could cause serotonin syndrome - symptoms like confusion, fast heartbeat, and high blood pressure. It's better to wait 2 weeks after stopping St. John's Wort before starting sertraline. This prevents any issues from occurring.
