Can I have Warm Milk and Antidepressants together?

Can i take warm milk at night as I am taking antidepredsants

1 Answer
Dr. Vikas Patel

Psychiatrist

Answered on 25th July '24

Drinking warm milk before­ sleeping is usually okay for people­ taking antidepressant medicine­s. Milk has tryptophan, a substance that helps make se­rotonin. Serotonin is a chemical that aids slee­p. However, some individuals may ge­t stomach problems or gas from warm milk. If you don't experie­nce these issue­s, a glass of warm milk at night is generally fine. E­nsure it doesn't interact badly with your me­dications.

I want to stop antidepressants medicine

Female | 35

Always consult your doctor before stopping antidepressants....Abrupt cessation can cause withdrawal symptoms. Withdrawal symptoms may include DIZZINESS, nausea, and anxiety....Tapering off slowly is recommended. Your doctor can help you develop a tapering schedule....Stopping abruptly can lead to relapse....Relapse may cause a worsening of symptoms....Withdrawal symptoms can also occur with tapering..But tapering can help minimize the severity of symptoms....Regular monitoring by your doctor is important..........

I am 36 years old, doing night shift work tobearn money from last few years,pure veg,no egg ,no fish non drinker non smoker, unable to sleep properly and some time anxiety occurs.

Male | 36

This might be that the night shifts have disturbed your body's internal clock, which can lead to sleeplessness. The lack of sleep can also be a contributing factor to anxiety. Try to make a sleep schedule and stick to it, avoid caffeine and screens before bed, and relax your mind with deep breathing or gentle music before going to sleep.

My son does not want to understand anything about how he is waiting his life and what should do for himself to independent

Male | 25

It seems like your son is having difficulties taking over the control and decision-making process. I would suggest contacting a therapist or counselor who treat particularly young adults. A mental health professional can assist your son with the development of confidence necessary to regain control over his life.

It is my honest opinion that you should see a qualified psychiatrist who has an OCD specialization. They will be able to give you a proper diagnosis and suggest treatment that will enable you to maintain your symptoms level.

my mom is sick and very cold skin she is talking in her sleep to her dead mother and mumbling her teeth are clinking fast she can’t even eat

Female | 55

It seems that your mother is showing signs of a severe condition called sepsis. This occurs when the body overreacts to an infection and causes harm. The cold skin, rapid teeth chattering, and speaking with her deceased mother could indicate that she is extremely ill. Immediate medical attention is necessary to help her body fight off the infection and recover.

My friend suffering from following problem 1 if family member not talking politely or net & clean way then she crying too much 2. After that talking with herself ( I am positive, everyone talking with me polite, all is well, ok etc) 3.crying too much, closes her eye, sleeping on floor, pain in her left side chest, stomach sounding very fast like gad gad, plam light bluish

Female | 26

Your friend is having a hard time dealing with stress and experiencing emotional troubles, which in turn, are causing physical problems. She might be crying, talking to herself, and feeling a sharp pain in her chest, which is a clear indication of stress and anxiety. The noises in the stomach and blueish palms may be the first signs of a high pulse rate and lack of normal blood circulation. Advice her to speak to someone she trusts and make deep breathing a habit, and have her try relaxation techniques to minimize stress.

Borderline Personality Disorder and Depression are mental illnesses.. But nothing to worry. Seek professional treatment. Learn coping skills and self-care practices. Surround yourself with supportive people. Practice mindfulness and relaxation techniques. Medication MAY be helpful. Recovery is possible with proper treatment.
