Could depression be causing my symptoms? Treatment advice?

Answered on 24th Dec '24
Depression has several origins, whether they be biological, psychological, social, or a combination of them all. You need to remember that help is there and you are not alone. Options for treatment often include therapy, medication, or a combination of both, which are prescribed based on your condition. Taking part in regular physical exercise, having a healthy diet, and having a sufficient amount of sleep are also benefits. I urge you to contact a psychiatrist who would be able to give you individual support and come up with a treatment plan that is good for you in its entirety.

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.

Male | 59
When we were kids, our brains were still growing and trying to make sense of the world around us. Being curious is fine- it’s part of growing up to think about different things or have new feelings. Reflecting on life might raise some questions for us. If these memories bother you, talking with a psychiatrist can help.

Can taking zertec and flounase cause depression
Female | 16
Zertec and Flonase are antihistamines used for the treatment of allergies. And nasal congestion, but no direct evidence supports their association with depression On the other hand, if one is showing signs of depression it is necessary to visit a psychiatrist for accurate diagnosis and therapy, not self medication recommended

Female | 14
BPD is known for its symptoms such as self-injury, unstable emotions, fear of abandonment, and impulsivity. For example, you may feel sad, lose interest in things that previously gave you pleasure, and experience changes in your eating and sleeping habits. Genetic, biological, and environmental factors may be the culprits of both diseases. You should seek the assistance of a psychiatrist or a counselor.

I can't sleep properly. It's about 2 weeks I am facing this issue.
Female | 26
For the last two weeks, having difficulty getting to sleep or sticking to sleep could be a symptom of insomnia. This can be brought about by stress, worries, or even eating habits. Try setting a bedtime schedule, for example, going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. Say no to the stimulant beverage and technology before night's sleep. If this doesn't help, it's best to speak with your doctor.

I have an issue where I stand up from getting out of a car outside and I get a like a pressure that starts in my throat and my heart rate increases pretty fast it only lasts a few seconds and it doesn’t happen Everytime mainly when I’m outside I suffer from extreme anxiety and have gas problems And heart related anxiety I have already had a doctor listen to my heart and he said it’s extremely healthy but I’m worried they miss something.
Male | 17
Perhaps you face panic attack signs due to anxiety and stress. When anxious, our bodies can have increased pulse, throat tightness, and gas issues. Take deep breaths, drink water, relax to handle it. Additionally, therapy may help you address your anxiety. Visit a psychiatrist.

Overthinking and repetitive behaviours
Male | 23
Feeling mentally overwhelmed and stuck in repetitive patterns for an extended period can be a sign of anxiety. This may lead to symptoms like restlessness, sleep disturbances, and heightened alertness. The causes of anxiety can vary, ranging from stress and genetics to imbalances in brain chemicals. To manage these feelings, practicing mindfulness, exercising, and talking to someone can significantly improve your well-being.

Female | 34
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.

Male | 35
It's important to understand that schizophrenia is a chronic condition that requires ongoing treatment. If you're experiencing excessive sexual desire, it may be a side effect of your medications or related to the condition itself. I strongly advise you to consult a psychiatrist who can adjust your treatment plan or provide guidance on managing these symptoms effectively.

How to come out from break up depression?
Female | 15
Breakups can leave one feeling blue. You might feel glum, alone, or unenthused with pastimes you formerly savored. Such emotions are normal after a split. To work through it, try confiding in someone you trust, pursuing beloved hobbies, and caring for yourself via nourishing meals and ample slumber. Healing takes time, so go easy on yourself. You can also visit a psychiatrist.

Female | 22
Your fear of being judged, rejected, and overthinking can be symptoms of anxiety. The head injury that you had in your adolescent period may also be linked to your headaches and memory issues now. Of course, speaking with a mental health professional is the best way to get help, but you also might want to see a neurologist for your head injury.

Female | 21
Amphetamine and methamphetamine are powerful stimulants that can produce feelings of alertness and increased energy. They may manifest as such signs as rapid pulse, sweating, and nervousness. These substances are usually manufactured illegally and can be highly habit-forming. If an individual is on either amphetamine or methamphetamine, it is crucial for them to consult with a healthcare provider on how to quit using the drugs safely.

It is still happening to me whenever I take any exams. This happens when I feel too much anxiety. And after this anxiety my heart beat run soo fast . I couldn't control on myself. And semem leakage happens to me. I'm really depressed I have tried exercising on daily basis. But in exams I couldn't control my stress and anxiety. Kindly what is treatment for this problem. I'm really depressed, I just want to give my best in exams so I'll be able to achieve my goals that I have set in my life.
Male | 22
This is more common than you may realize and could be due to stress affecting your body. When you’re nervous, it can make your body react in various ways such as increased heart rate and release of semen. Perhaps trying relaxation methods like deep breathing or talking about what’s bothering you with someone could help calm down your nerves before sitting for an exam.

I was taken daxid 50 mg tablet .I am feared that tablet side effects.if any problem are effected male sexual hormone level
Male | 19
It is completely understandable to worry about the side effects of a medicine. Male hormone levels can be affected by Daxid 50 mg occasionally. This might lead to symptoms such as low sex drive or difficulty in achieving an erection. The reason for this is that the drug has an impact on serotonin levels in the brain. If you are going through these things, it would be best to talk to your doctor about them.

Female | 18
Your drooping spirits and the negatives in your thinking have the consequence of your behavior. Various causes of these signs are found hence people having been under a lot of stress or anxiety experience the same feeling. When you go through the emotions focus on the end of this exercise: slow breathing and calming of the soul. Besides, communicating with your close friends or even family members can be helpful. You can also recognize that it's important to ask for help when needed.
