It is critical to know the underpinning of your lack of sleep. Sleep loss can be caused by factors such as stress, anxiety, depression, and medical conditions. It is recommended you see a psychiatrist to identify and eliminate the sleeping problem's primary reason.

I'm 20 years old student. I have been having suicidal thoughts since a year or two. I have had panic attacks before but since few days i am having several panic attacks in a single day. I always feel uneasy with a pain in chest having problem in breathing. I feel like crying and scared that it might happen again when I'm in front of public.

You might be having panic attacks which is overwhelming and scary. A person having panic attacks may feel many different things including chest pains, trouble breathing, or feeling out of control emotionally. But don’t worry because help is available — talk to someone about it. Reach out to a friend or speak with a therapist.

Lack of Sleep I want some sleeping pills
Female | 19
The signs of sleep deprivation, such as feeling exhausted, being moody, and having difficulties concentrating, can be bothersome. The reasons can be stress, too much screen time before bed, or a noisy environment you cannot control. Rather than sleeping pills, develop a soothing bedtime routine, such as reading a book or taking a warm bath to calm your mind. It can help you get the sleep you need.

I wonder if I have a form of OCD. I finger tap, muscle twitch, and count syllables. Also, when I finger tap and muscle twitch, it has to be equal on both sides of my body, or else it really bothers me. Also, let's say I hit my elbow on a table or fridge, I feel a very urgent need to touch my other elbow to said table or fridge, and it is very hard to ignore the need. This has been bothering me for about 2-3 years. (Ever since I started high school).
Female | 16
Your description points to Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) symptoms. OCD is a condition where thoughts repeat. People feel compelled to do actions repeatedly. This includes tapping, counting, or needing symmetry. OCD treatment usually involves therapy and medication. Speaking with a psychiatrist about symptoms is crucial.

Doctor I had headache in past so I took paracetamol Now I study but during study I have overthinking so much how I can remove it & how can I focus on studies without any distraction with discipline & consistency
Female | 16
If you are enduring the pain of a headache and overthinking while studying, it is vital to attend to the root issue. I advise you to refer to a neurologist to exclude possible medical problems of headache origin. As well, you can try to get support from the mental health professionals, like psychiatrists, who can show you how to manage your tendency to overthink and develop the necessary discipline and consistency in studies.

Im a 15 year old one actually its not a disease or something bt im getting myself weak and scared and my heart beats are getting high its actually the exm results... Cbse class 10 results are on tmrw and im feeling myself loosing the strength
Female | 15
I can understand how waiting for exam scores makes you feel very bad. Your body can get weak, and afraid, and your heart can beat fast when you are anxious. It is just how your body acts when it feels stress. To feel good, try breathing deeply, talk to someone about how you feel, and do things you like. Remember, exam scores do not show who you are as a person.

I'm 18 years old. I suffer from severe depression and self harm. I have my exams soon and I just can't sleep. I need to stay awake but even after consuming 2000mg of coffee, i feel like wanting to sleep. Should I eat more coffee?? How can I stay awake for longer periods if coffee isn't going to help.
Female | 18
This happens when your body gets accustomed to it. Instead of more caffeine, try: taking short breaks, stretching your legs, and splashing cold water on your face. Discussing depression and self-harm urges with someone is crucial. Seeking help from a psychiatrist is the best approach to improving well-being and staying alert naturally.

Hello 2 years ago, I had ED, only sometimes (once or twice a month i used to get very hard errection otherwise it was very very spongy like) - I then had panic attacks diagnosis and started taking serlift and etizom for 5 months now. I noticed my muscles and body is grown and also I get hard errection when i have a strong desire. Sometimes twice a day but when i am sad again, i again have the problem. Is my ed because of this panic attacks? Will it go away automatically forever or can it come back after i stop medicines?
Male | 26
You’ve had a tough time dealing with erectile dysfunction before, and sometimes, medical conditions can be a cause. Feeling down or stressed can also affect your ability to get an erection. The good news is that your current medication seems to be helping. As your mental health improves, your ED might get better as well.

I have ocd and I take 100mg of sertraline in the morning and 0.5 mg of clonazepam at night but now I am having difficulty in sleeping at night so can I take 1mg of clonazepam at night, please suggest me.
Male | 30
Poor quality rest might be responsible for experiencing the problem of sleeping. This means that you should be extra careful when attempting to change medications. Clonazepam results in disrupted sleep meaning that increasing the dose doesn't make it better.

Male | 41
Constant worry and sadness make work hard and fun things unenjoyable. Lack of sleep worsens everything. But you're not alone in feeling this way. Depression happens for reasons like stress, difficult events, or brain chemistry changes. There are ways to feel better. See a psychiatrist or therapist too - they'll listen without judgment and provide strategies for managing feelings.

Female | 20
I know you feel really low at the moment. Many people experience life seeming meaningless sometimes. But there is hope – things can improve. Feeling this way often signals depression, a common condition that can be treated. Speaking with a mental health expert may help lift your mood, and find new purpose.

I feel sleepy all the time but then also I don't want to sleep.
Male | 21
Often, a constant feeling of tiredness yet not wanting to sleep signals sleep issues or irregular routine. Perhaps insufficient rest or poor sleep patterns occur. Stress, excessive screen time, or inadequate exercise contribute. Establish a regular sleep schedule. Limit caffeine and sugar intake and wind down before bed.

Hi doctor my age is 20 I am female I have issues in breathing since my childhood mostly this occurs when I am in stress please provide me solutions how I overcome this
Female | 20
In this case, you might be experiencing asthma, which is the source of your breathing difficulties, especially when you are stressed out or under emotional pressure. Try yoga, stretching exercises, deep breathing techniques, or meditation as a form of relaxation when you notice stress building up. On the other hand, if you see no improvement, report the issue to a psychiatrist to further explore and personalize treatment.
