Cold sweats,cold feet ,heart ache ,fear of death,nausea,cough

Female | 22

The situation you describe may indicate that you are suffering from a panic attack. Cold sweats, cold feet, chest pain, fear of dying, nausea, and coughing can be the accompanying symptoms. Panic attacks may result from stress, anxiety, or even a medical condition. Among the ways of handling a panic attack are deep breathing, concentrating on relaxing thoughts, and talking to a trustworthy person.

I visited a psychiatrist and he prescribed me these meds. Daxtin 20mg Daxtin 40mg Fluvoxamine 50mg Etilaam .25mg Explain these medicines from all perspective and help me get a pros and cons list

Male | 21

Here's some brief information about the medicines that your psychiatrist has recommended: 1. Daxtin 20mg and Daxtin 40mg: These are prescribed for depression. These drugs can help increase the serotonin and norepinephrine levels, improving your mood and energy. 2. Fluvoxamine 50mg: It's also great for depression and anxiety. It works better for sleep and decreases the level of anxiety. 3. Etilaam 0.25mg: It cures anxiety and panic attacks. Positive: Such products have the potential to alleviate depression, give you a good night's sleep, and anxiety at a manageable level. 

Negative: It might bring alongside other effects such as vomiting, giddiness, and drowsiness. In other words, these medications are intended to make you feel better, but they can also cause other health problems. Do not stop taking them on your own – always take them as your doctor has prescribed and notify them of any discrepancies in your condition!

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.

I have difficulty falling asleep from few weeks i close my eyes but i cant sleep

Female | 15

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.

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.

Hello. I am a doctor myself. I write to seek help about my sister. 34 years old, married and living with husband with my mother, having constant auditory hallucinations since 2014, took antipsychotics, was not open to CBT, there is no improvement, rather weight gain and more depression. She has had a bunch of traumatic events since childhood and all her past villains (teacher who locked her in school at age 7 in the dark till 8PM) (an on and off absent father and his brothers) (ex husband) and God knows who, are the ones who are prompting fearful instigations in her causing her to behave erratically, fear of brainmapping and planning to kill and harm her body after mom is no more, all of this in her auditory hallucinations. There is constant crying out of unrealistic fear. What I hoped to seek from you is if you can manage to clinically hypnotise her, reach into every fear she has and nullify them at subconscious level, giving her a feel to look forward to a positive purposeful life ahead. Most other hypnotists are using Hinduism and past life karma concepts, my mother is not comfortable with it, we are moslems. Sister is on medications, prescribed by Manasa Mind Clinic but mother has to slip into some drink she refuses to take if she is told what it is for.. I would really like to discuss more if you have time, before i make an appointment for her.

Female | 34

It seems that your sister is really disturbed by her hallucinations caused by auditory perception and old psychological trauma. These symptoms may come from such terrible things she has faced and factors that emphasize her experience. Hypnosis requires a holistic approach; thus, I advocate her healing through the system. I endorse that you think of obtaining a multidisciplinary consultation by a psychiatrist for medication management and a psychologist for trauma-informed therapy. Like we have mentioned before, her therapist could offer her a space to endorse her beliefs while implementing the new ways of coping. Getting the help of the mental health professionals is the key; therefore, you need to consult a healthcare provider that can give her the right direction for her health.

I can't sleep I have tachycardia anxiety. Haven't slept for 2 days. I have lorazepam here how much should I take, I have never took anything like that.

Male | 35

The first thing to do is to make an appointment with your family doctor or a specialist to discuss your tachycardia anxiety. Lorazepam self-medication is not advised, and this is especially for those who have never used this drug. Taking the wrong dosage might lead to negative effects and it could also lead to other health problems. For this condition, you will need to consult a professional for a competent diagnosis and the most useful treatment.

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 am not feeling well and satisfied in my life and also want to do crazy things that would enhance my motivation and skill

Male | 23

Feeling unmotivated and wanting to try new things is usually when we are feeling stagnant in life. Reach out and talk to someone you feel comfortable with about your feelings. Continue doing the things you like, step outside for a walk, or delve into a new hobby. Self-care and creating new sources of joy are methods of bringing your mood up.

I am using inderal 10mg twice and escitalophram 10 mg daily for anxiety from last 1 year.. Now i am good last time doctor said that we will reduce yout dose and then gradually quit this medication. Now iam far away from city and cannot go there kindly suggest me how to reduce dose

Male | 22

I advise against abruptly discontinuing any medication without consulting your doctor, especially when managing anxiety. Abruptly stopping drugs such as Inderal and Escitalopram can lead to serious withdrawal symptoms. It is preferable to seek guidance from a psychiatrist or mental health specialist for a proper tapering schedule to minimize potential adverse effects. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions and regularly update them about your condition.

i dont eat in the mornings because im not hungry so i eat in the afternoon but i eat a little. and at night i eat a little

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.

I have savere anxiety dipprestion can't go outside delusion of people are against me or they will harm me or they are making plans against me from a 1 year I spend my time in isolation in a room can't go outside everything is worse of life I checked to many psychiatrist and take many medicines but no relief what I do now

Male | 23

Delusions of people opposing you are­ troubling. Brain chemical imbalances or past trauma could cause the­se symptoms. Since psychiatrists and medications have­n't helped yet, ke­ep trying different tre­atments. Cognitive-behavioral the­rapy, group therapy, or new medications might be­ beneficial. Keep see­king help until you find what works best. Supportive, unde­rstanding individuals can make a difference­ too.

I mixed amitriptyline and zolax sr 0.5 im scared

Male | 23

Amitrip and zolax sr 0.5 can make the outcome rather risky. You might feel symptoms like drowsiness, dizziness, confusion, and also have coordination issues. It happens because of both medical specialties that affect the brain. Seeking medical help should be the first priority if you have any of these symptoms noticed.
