Can I Safely Take Propranolol Before Parachuting?
can i take propranolol before parachuting
Psychiatrist
Answered on 8th July '24
If you take propranolol before skydiving, that might not be safe. Before such a high-energy activity the drug may slow down your pulse and lower blood pressure, which is risky. During acute stress situations such as this one it is necessary for the heart to beat fast so as to supply enough oxygen into the muscles thus enabling them carry out their functions effectively.

Having anxiety attacks , nervousness, high bp but can't find the reason of it
Male | 23
The difficult and uncomfortable periods of nervousness, high anxiety attacks, and hypertension can be handled. The body has been known to react this way when it is under stress or preoccupied with some thoughts. It's normal to feel that way, but if it's happening a lot, it's a good idea to talk to a psychiatrist. Breathing slowly and practicing relaxation techniques such as yoga may assist in quieting your mind.

Depression symptoms involve sadness, loneliness, and appetite changes. Don't ignore these signs - speak up. Trusted people like friends or family may help. Counselors or psychiatrists aid in managing emotions and coping mechanisms too. Mental health matters just like physical well-being.

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).

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.

What would happen if I take 3 yellow betapam pills at once
Female | 19
Taking 3 yellow betapam pills at once is extremely risky. Betapam treats anxiety disorders. But overdosing can induce severe dizziness, excessive sleepiness, and dangerously slowed breathing – a serious overdose situation requiring urgent medical attention. Never exceed your doctor's recommended dosage.

I have short term memory issues..I forgot what I have studied..I am a student.. currently preparing for competitive exam ..does it safe to take ritalin like addwize 18mg for memory and concentration
Male | 30
Short-term memory problems happen because of stress, chronic sleep deprivation, or low concentration. Instead of taking medication like Ritalin or Addwize, it's better to focus on healthy habits like getting enough sleep, eating well, and practicing relaxation techniques. Besides that, you can try memory techniques such as list-making or flashcards to remember information effectively.

I feel a heavy heart, I get nervous while working, I am unable to understand things.To be firm, to sometimes be right, to not be unstable in mind
Male | 26
Experiencing tightness in your chest, jumping around, and becoming nervous while working is usually the result of tension or anxiety, which may cause your concentration to be muddled and leave you feeling incapacitated. To acknowledge and accept these emotions might be one of the most important things you can do. Try self-help techniques such as meditation or mindfulness to destress your mind. Daily physical exercises and a good diet can make you a happier and clearer person. If they continue to occur and get worse, I recommend you talk to your family doctor who will offer you qualified help and guidance.

It may feel like you might be caught in a storm of emotional pain from your stammering-induced rapid and racing thoughts. This state, caused by genetics or anxiety, is a great relief; however, when one's thought process is a vast emptiness that only confuses one's speech. Mind overload can lead to stuttering. The assistance of a therapist in overcoming your stress and thoughts becomes crucial.

Female | 40
Your irregular eating habits can negatively impact your well-being. Morning hunger leads to sluggishness and lack of focus. Meager afternoon and evening meals deprive your body of vital nutrients. Aim for balanced meals containing fruits, veggies, proteins, and carbs throughout the day.

It seems that you might have parasomnia a type of sleep disorder. It can cause sleep talking or shouting without your awareness.

Try to manage stress levels, keep a consistent sleep schedule, and develop a relaxing bedtime routine to lessen these incidents. If this does not help, seek advice from a psychiatrist.

You have been under a lot of pressure and are feeling stressed. Being very tired, short-tempered, or feeling a headache can be the symptoms of burnout. Nebulousness claims how harmful burnout can be. Enriching oneself with a plethora of activities can change the quality of your life. Explore the way you feel with someone you can trust.

To reduce or quit excessive masturbation, gradually reduce frequency, identify triggers, and find alternative activities to occupy your time. Establish a daily routine, limit access to triggering materials, and practice relaxation techniques to manage stress. Seek support from friends or a therapist, and remember that occasional masturbation is normal. If needed, consider professional help. Breaking the habit takes time and patience, so be kind to yourself
