A burning he­ad and shivering is hard. These signs may come­ from your meds. Some pills can make muscle­s stiff and make you shake. Tell your doctor about the­se troubles - they might change­ your medicine to help. It's ke­y to report new issues while­ on medication.

Just a short question, important. Why am I very restlessness

Male | 18

This feeling of restlessness may be induced by different factors, including anxiety, stress, caffeine use, side effects of medications, or an underlying medical problem. In case the condition persists for an extended time or disrupts normal daily living, one should make an appointment with a general practitioner or see a psychiatrist.

Hello, I am 30 years old. I have been suffering from panic attacks, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder for 7 years. I went to a psychologist, looked at my condition and prescribed medications. Medication: Velaxin twice a day, half a tablet of Abizol, zolomax 2/1 tablet, 1 tablet after 3 days. I take these medications. I'm afraid to use it. I went to a heart doctor and he examined me and said my heart was healthy. What I want to ask you is, do these drugs harm people?

Kişi | 30

It’s totally okay to feel worried about the medications you’ve been given. Velaxin is for anxiety and panic attacks, Abizol and Zolomax are for anxiety and OCD. These drugs are generally safe when used correctly but can cause dizziness or drowsiness as common side effects. You must follow your doctor’s orders and tell them if anything strange is happening to you.

I am an 18 year old female and have recently been prescribed 25mg of Sertraline to take for my anxiety. However i haven't started taking it yet because i feel i didn't get the chance to fully talk about my concerns and the potential side effects before committing to taking medication.

Female | 18

Sertraline is often the first treatment for anxiety. Mild side effects that can be experienced are stomach aches, headaches, and problems with sleeping. These disappear by themselves. If you have any doubt about taking it, ask your physician for a consultation. They are available to help you with your doubts before starting the course of the medication.

I haven't been feeling the effects of drugs like caffeine, codeine or nicotine for some time now and it's concerning me. I was put onto risperidone and propranolol for seven months before this started happening. Could you help me determine the cause?

Male | 20

It's true that these­ medications can sometimes influe­nce your body's reaction to caffeine­, codeine, or nicotine. The­re's a chance these­ drugs are altering your response­s. The wisest step would be­ discussing your concerns with a healthcare profe­ssional. They'll help decide­ the ideal approach for your situation.

I am 12 years old and i took valerian to sleep and ive been feeling anxious drowsy and been having insomnia ive lost my appetite too please tell me a way how to fix it at home

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 | 23

Alcohol addiction is serious, and professional help is vital. Be cautious with Ayurvedic remedies; extreme effects when drinking aren't common but can occur. The best option is to address addiction properly with the guidance and support of healthcare professionals.

Lack of Sleep I want some sleeping pills

Female | 19

The signs of sleep deprivation, such as feeling exhausted, being moody, and having difficulties concentrating, can be bothersome. The reasons can be stress, too much screen time before bed, or a noisy environment you cannot control. Rather than sleeping pills, develop a soothing bedtime routine, such as reading a book or taking a warm bath to calm your mind. It can help you get the sleep you need.

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.

Male | 19

It can be tough to manage weak memory, trouble speaking, feeling upset, quick forgetfulness as well as past depression. I see these problems may stem from too much phone use and frequent masturbation for many years. You should cut down on the mobile phone and get help from professionals. Doctors will show you what treatments are available for this condition and how you can change your lifestyle to improve your mental health.

I'm 26 I have autism ocd Suspected ADHD and suspected fibromyalgia I'm taking 15mg of escitalopram It's making me fall asleep from 6 am to 8 am What should I do? I take it in the evening

Male | 26

Escitalopram might be making you feel too drowsy in the morning like it's the reason you are going to sleep. This case is more or less the same with some people. An example of one thing you might do is to consume it earlier in the evening, for instance, right before you eat. This way, you may later be tired but not in the morning. If the problem continues, bring it up with your doctor.

Actually I am unable to sleep properly at night. Even I sleep a night properly after 4-5 sleepless nights.

Female | 23

It is critical to know the underpinning of your lack of sleep. Sleep loss can be caused by factors such as stress, anxiety, depression, and medical conditions. It is recommended you see a psychiatrist to identify and eliminate the sleeping problem's primary reason.
