Answered on 21st Jan '25
Anxiety often manifests as feelings of worry, restlessness, or difficulty concentrating. Physical symptoms may include increased heart rate, sweating, or fatigue. Various factors, such as stress, genetics, or environmental changes, can contribute to these feelings. To manage anxiety, consider engaging in regular exercise, practicing mindfulness, and maintaining a balanced diet. Establishing a consistent sleep routine can also be beneficial. Connecting with a psychiatrist can provide tailored support and coping strategies. Remember, seeking help is a proactive step towards wellness, and you don’t have to navigate this journey alone.

Depression can bring on feelings such as sadness, isolation, and disinterest in activities that were once a source of joy. Those memories of childhood and spending countless hours running around your house could be signs of distress. It is of utmost importance to carry on with treatment by a psychiatrist for therapy and possibly medication to provide her full support during this tough time.

These signs could mean stress or anxiety. Relax by breathing deeply, doing yoga, or confiding in someone. Having a routine and proper sleep helps too. You can also get help from a psychiatrist.

I am 28 born I have problem with sleeping
Male | 28
Experiencing difficulty falling or staying asleep can stem from stress, lifestyle habits, or medical issues. Common symptoms include restless nights, daytime fatigue, and irritability. To improve your situation, consider establishing a calming bedtime routine, reducing caffeine intake, and creating a comfortable sleep environment. Regular exercise also promotes better rest. Mindfulness techniques, like meditation or gentle yoga, can help ease anxiety. If these changes do not help, it’s important to discuss your sleep concerns with a psychiatrist who can provide personalized guidance and support.

How to Cure my Social Anxiety ?
Male | 21
This is when you feel very afraid or nervous in social situations. You might get sweaty, have a tremble, or find it difficult to talk to people. Social anxiety can be caused by a combination of genetics and things that have happened to you. Getting therapy and counseling will teach you how to control your emotions and become more self-assured. Exercise as well as relaxation techniques can also work wonders.

Male | 25
You might have been through a lot of psychological stress and these might be some of the reasons why your physical health, such as having difficulties in getting erections, is also being affected. The technique you talked about seems to center on anxiety and depression, which can be further aggravated by traumatic past experiences or problems in a relationship. Delving into the issues with the help of a psychiatrist is the best way to cope with mental health issues.

Male | 36
Anxiety typically manifests with heaviness in the chest, shoulder, and left arm pain. You might feel worse when you're all by yourself at home and have time to ponder. It's good to know that you had the tests done just last year. To cope with this, you might try out some deep breathing exercises, talk to a friend, or listen to calming music. In case you are suffering from a mental health condition that has developed over the years, you might also find the need to support a psychiatrist.

I’ve been struggling with sleep the slightest bit of light or noise and sometimes even nothing makes me not able to sleep I’ve been getting frustrated and upset really easily and I’ve been over eating
Female | 18
You might find that insomnia and stress are your main issues. Trouble sleeping can be caused by a little bit of light or noise. Feelings like anger, being upset, and eating too much can lead to other problems. Try creating a soothing bedtime routine, like reading a good book or taking a hot bath. Avoid screen time and large meals before bed. If these steps don't help, seek professional advice from a gynecologist.

I am 46 and have depression. I need sessions of deep transmagnetic stimulation. How much cost? Can I come tomorrow?
Female | 46
Deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a treatment for depression that is safe. Costs may differ from one clinic to another, but luckily, some insurance that partner with the clinics offers the treatment. It's smart to check it with the clinic. These may be found in depression itself, such as low moods, loss of interest, and unusual changes in appetite and sleep. TMS is a way of stimulating the brain by sending magnetic pulses. Naturally, it is required to fix a meeting for TMS during which you are free so that we can talk during that time, but we can shift your appointment for you as soon as it is convenient.

Hi, i usually take latuda 40 mg and benztropine 0.5 mg specifically at nighttime. However, this morning i took them on accident instead of just taking my morning dose of 0.5 mg benztropine. I was able to induce vomiting to try to get the medication out of my system. Can i still take my regular nightime medications(40 mg latuda, 0.5 mg benztropine? Or do i need to wait until tomorrow night to start taking them again?
Female | 20
It's positive you made yourself vomit to remove meds from your body. Since you took them earlier today, you can still have your usual dose tonight. Just watch for odd signs like feeling dizzy, very sleepy, or heart beating differently. If anything seems bad, talk to a doctor.

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).
Female | 16
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.

I take Sertraline for anxiety and depression and I am going to have my first tattoo done and don't no if the Sertraline has blood thinners in it. Many Thanks.
Male | 47
Sertraline is a medicine often used for anxiety and depression. Tattooing does not contain blood thinners but may result in minor bleeding. Thus it’s important to inform the tattoo artist about your intake of Sertraline so that they can take necessary precautions. To prevent any complications ensure you adhere to their aftercare advice.

I am 24 Year old male. Recently my dad passed away. I felt sick one night and went to hospital and they diagnosed me as anxiety disorder. I stopped the medication for one day and feeling fine but just now I’m feeling the symptoms again but I had a few sip of beer beforehand so I’m wondering if I should still take meds to help with my symptoms or I should not take meds? The medication is Ativan
Male | 24
Restlessness, increased heart rate, and trouble with concentration are some of the most common symptoms that anxiety can cause. Alcohol can mix with drugs such as Ativan and the patient might suffer severe side effects. The primary rule is to get advice from your doctor before starting any treatment of any kind, especially after a shot of alcohol. They will provide you with advice that suits you. Apart from that, always put your mental health first, and with the help of a professional, you can learn to handle these emotions.

Female | 24
Being upset and worried is hard to bear. These emotions are largely due to stress or life changes attributed to many causes. Some of the signs are constant worrying, being afraid, or a disturbed sleep schedule. So, talk to a person, like a friend, or a family member. After that, engaging yourself in activities you prefer and getting enough sleep can help.

can i take propranolol before parachuting
Male | 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.
