Addressing issues related to neurotransmitter levels requires consultation with a psychiatrist or neurologist. Discontinuing medications such as risperidone and haloperidol can lead to a drop in serotonin and dopamine levels. Additionally, the use of supplements like tryptophan, tyrosine, 5-HTP, and mucuna pruriens may also affect neurotransmitter levels. It's essential to consult a specialist for proper diagnosis and treatment of any potential imbalances beforehand.

I check doctor he gave me medicine like tablet can be used to treat depressive disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder.

You might be experiencing sleep paralysis. It happens at night when you suddenly wake up and feel unable to move or breathe for a short time. Though it can be scary, it’s usually not serious. It often happens due to stress, lack of sleep, or an irregular sleep schedule. Try to relax before bed, follow a regular sleep routine, and manage stress with techniques like deep breathing or meditation. If it still worries you, you will want to talk to a counselor or psychiatrist for more help.

Feeling stressed or having bad days could point to depression. Symptoms might include sadness, hopelessness, and losing interest. Other signs are sleep issues, appetite changes, and trouble focusing. Causes vary and can include genetics, life events, and brain chemistry imbalances. Solutions exist, such as therapy, medication, exercise, and relaxation practices for self-care.

Mental pressure, depression, trust issues, and childhood trauma can make it very difficult for a person to go through life. Symptoms can be sadness, anxiety, insomnia, and loss of appetite. These emotions may be triggered due to some past experiences and stress. Speaking with a therapist or psychiatrist about your feelings and developing coping strategies is crucial to get stronger and be more resilient when dealing with problems.

My therapist prescribed for me vaincor 5mg (olanzapine) and serotyl 20mg (fluoxetine) and I'm afraid that will make me gain weight. Does this combination makes me gain weight or not??
Female | 17
The presence of Olanzapine and Fluoxetine, the components of Vaincor, may lead to weight gain as one of the possible side effects of their joint treatment. Yet, this may not be the case for everyone. They will want to advise you to consult your psychiatrist or another medical doctor for the full evaluation and the issue of any side effects.

Male | 31
You might be experiencing a condition called obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) which is related to your cleanliness and fear of contamination. It is characterized by unreasonable anxiety and the necessity to wash your hands or clean objects several times. This may be a result of a mix of hereditary, brain, and environmental factors. Treatment may include therapy and medication which are prescribed by a psychiatrist.

Female | 27
It seems you have already been dealing with anxiety for a while, it definitely can be a hard thing to do. Anxiety can make you feel nervous, scared, etc. It could occur due to stressful situations, genetics, or the imbalances of your brain chemicals. To cope with anxiety effectively, you have to open up about your feelings to someone you can trust, do relaxation exercises, work out regularly, and make sure to get enough sleep.

I am prescribed 0.50 mg of alprazolam as needed. I took my dose and do not feel anything and am still having an anxiety attack. It has been 2 and a half hours since I took that dose. Can I take 0.25 now or is it too dangerous? I have no health issues.
Female | 24
Don't take more medicine without going to a doctor. You may hurt yourself if you do anything harmful. At least attempt to find some other way besides taking so much Xanax all the time because that could end badly too, like speaking halfway or breathing deeply. If these don't work then going to therapy would be great too.

Male | 12
The use of valerian can lead to side effects such as anxiety, drowsiness, and insomnia. Also, a loss of appetite is a usual issue. To make it easier, drink a lot of water, eat light meals, and engage in calm activities like walking. Being careful not to take any more valerian is important. You will feel better shortly if you rest and take care of yourself.

Male | 29
With your signs of mood changes, severe sleep problems, and physical complications like hair loss and weight loss, you must get medical help in time. I would suggest that you try to consult with a psychiatrist who can establish the proper diagnosis through a comprehensive testing procedure. You should also see an endocrinologist for evaluation of these symptoms that may be due to the hormonal imbalance.

Female | Nikita paliwal
All these could be symptoms of depression, which affects both the body and the mind. You may feel tired all the time, lose interest in things that used to make you happy, or even think about hurting yourself when you are depressed. These emotions should not be kept to oneself and talking to someone such as a counselor or therapist who can offer help through different methods including therapy sessions or medication might be a good start.

High blood pressure can have many causes, including stress. Worrying too much and overthinking may also be signs of anxiety. It's important to follow your doctor's instructions when taking medication. To manage stress and anxiety, try relaxation methods like deep breathing, exercise, or talking to someone you trust.

I have ADD / Inattentive ADHD. I’m having extreme problems with weight loss but my medication (Generic for Vyvanse), Suppresses my appetite and I can’t gain any weight. Are there any prescriptions I can try that won’t suppress my appetite and will help me gain weight?
Male | 18
It appears that you’re having trouble losing weight because of the medicine you’re taking for ADD/Inattentive ADHD. Your appetite is affected by this drug thus making it hard for you to gain weight. It may help if you talk to your doctor about trying another medication that doesn’t suppress appetite. Such a change could enable you to reach a healthy weight. Speak with your healthcare provider regarding your concerns so that they can find the right solution.

I smoked a lot of thc oil daily many times and I’m wondering how long it will stay in my urine
Male | 23
Marijuana high stuff called THC that brings about a high mood can stick in your urine for a while. If you have smoked a lot of THC oil, it could have stuck in your urine for up to 30 days. The symptoms can vary but may include problems with memory, thinking, and mood. The solution is to run those with THC out of the system and help with some water intake to get flushed out.

I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I’ve just had this weird feeling that something in my body is off for a couple of days. I don’t know what happened but I was doing stuff non stop for 2 days and I just broke down crying and couldn’t breath. Nothing remotely bad seemed to trigger it. It’s like I try to be normal and socialise and do stuff but it’s so much harder for me than my friends I feel like such a bad person but I literally just can’t be with anyone for long and I start to get really tired and low. I don’t want to do anything and I don’t want to leave the house. I have also lost my appetite and don’t want to eat anything. I always have vivid dreams of something bad happening. I don’t know what’s wrong with me it’s like I feel ill but there’s nothing wrong with me to make me I’ll I feel crazy
Female | 16
You are likely to be going through symptoms of anxiety or stress, which can be so crippling that they can cause you to lose your appetite and get less sleep. These feelings are common and nothing to be afraid of. Take care of yourself by practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, talking to a trusted person or psychiatrist, and getting regular exercise.

The symptoms you're describing could be due to a panic attack, which can sometimes mimic a heart attack. It's important to address this issue promptly. Make sure you take your antidepressants consistently as prescribed and consult a mental health expert for the best way to manage your anxiety. Stress management techniques, like deep breathing exercises, can also help with these symptoms.
