Answered on 8th July '24
Commonly, everyone gets scared or anxious from time to time, even when experiencing panic attacks and hyperventilation. These are most likely caused by stress, fear, or anxiety. Signs are quick breathing, chest tightness, and dizziness. Apart from doing deep breathing exercises, training in mindfulness, and talking to a trustful person, can also reduce panic attacks.

Will I die of valium 5mg 30 pills and Xanax 0.5 30 pills with alcohol
Male | 32
Mixing Valium, Xanax, and alcohol can be extremely dangerous. They all influence the brain to slow down activities, which can result in respiratory difficulties, unconsciousness, and even death. Indications may involve sleepiness, bewilderment, slurred language, and a decrease in respiration. If you've mixed these, look for urgent medical care immediately. It's crucial never to combine these substances because it might be fatal.

Male | 35
If you're having these symptoms.. don't stop the medications abruptly. Stay hydrated, take rest, and seek emotional support. And avoid alcohol or caffeine if you do consume. Practice relaxation techniques. Consult your psychiatrist to find the right medication and dosage for you.

No, Xanax is not safe for the age of 14. Xanax is a highly-addictive drug and doctors prescribe only for anxiety or panic disorders in an adult.

I am 31 years old and I am not sleeping in night in depression
Male | 31
If you're experiencing fatigue, losing interest in activities you once enjoyed, or struggling to concentrate, it may be a sign of depression. Depression can arise for various reasons, such as life challenges or chemical imbalances in the brain. Seeking help by talking to trusted people, exercising, and getting enough rest can be beneficial. If these steps don't help, speaking with a therapist or psychiatrist can be a meaningful start toward overcoming depression.

Hi I'm taking esomeprazole, lisinopril, lipitor, citalopram and ropinerole. I want to know if I can take anti sweat tablets
Female | 59
It is possible that sweating contributes to the discomfort, and any medications may interact with each other. The adverted drug might also negatively affect the efficiency of other medications that you are taking. It is vital to communicate with a doctor. They will give advice or suggest something else if necessary to manage your situation.

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.

Hi - I am taking for 10 months now mirtazipine 30 mg. Is it ok to half the dose - or do I need to build down more slowly? I gain a lot of weight … Thank you
Female | Joke
A common side effect of mirtazapine is weight gain. Talk with your doctor before you reduce your dose. They might recommend a strategy to decrease the dose gradually so that you won't have withdrawal symptoms. It is dangerous to quickly change your dose; therefore, it is necessary to do it carefully under the supervision of your doctor.

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.

Depression is a disease that comes with emotions of sadness, lack of interest, tiredness, difficulty in focusing, and changes in sleep patterns. This may be a combination of different reasons such as heredity, brain chemistry, and life events. It is necessary to get support from loved ones and think about talking to a therapist or a psychiatrist to get medication to help with these symptoms.

Hello i need to ask about PEth test. This month i have been drunk 3 times. How long do i have to wait in order to pass a PEth test? Also i have been drinking quite heavily in all these 3 times. 2 weeks sober in between the drinking occasions.
Male | 25
The PEth test looks for alcohol in your blood over a long time, not just one day like other blood tests. It is very important to drink lots of water, eat good food, and not drink any alcohol to help your body get better. It's a challenging process, but staying sober and taking good care of yourself can help lower your PEth levels more quickly.

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.

Symptoms like depression
Female | 50
Sleeplessness or constant fatigue may also be indications of depression. Constant sorrow as well as regular sadness might indicate one is suffering from depression if one is not in a high mood throughout the day. There are instances when this is caused by things like genetics or chemicals within one’s brain. For one to feel better they need to talk about their problems with someone close; this person could be a friend, family member, or even a therapist.

Male | 24
Based on what you’ve said, your weight loss, sadness, tenseness, and nervousness could be symptoms of chronic stress. When we experience stress for a long time, it affects our minds and our body. You should try to take it easy and find some ways to cope with stress — for example, deep breathing exercises, confiding in a friend, or doing something fun. If things don’t get better, think about talking to a psychiatrist or counselor.

I'm 18 years old. I suffer from severe depression and self harm. I have my exams soon and I just can't sleep. I need to stay awake but even after consuming 2000mg of coffee, i feel like wanting to sleep. Should I eat more coffee?? How can I stay awake for longer periods if coffee isn't going to help.
Female | 18
This happens when your body gets accustomed to it. Instead of more caffeine, try: taking short breaks, stretching your legs, and splashing cold water on your face. Discussing depression and self-harm urges with someone is crucial. Seeking help from a psychiatrist is the best approach to improving well-being and staying alert naturally.

Can vyvanse burn skin/make you unrecognizable? I took 300 mg for 3 days in a row for 4 months. And ended up with psychosis. I have been told I look good and think so too.
Male | 27
Vyvanse has no effects on physical looks. Taking high doses long-term may lead to psychosis. This makes people see, hear things not real. It includes symptoms like confusion, paranoia, and hallucinations. It's crucial to stop Vyvanse, and see a psychiatrist immediately.

I have problems with getting to sleep. But I do shisha and after I do shisha it helps me to sleep, but it's not good for my help what can I do to do away with intial insomnia
Male | 27
Utilizing shisha for sleep isn't recommended at all. In addition, the difficulty of getting sleep is called initial insomnia, and two possible reasons for that may be stress, bad sleep habits, or the use of drugs like shisha. A potentially successful method to deal with the troublesome situation is to establish a bedtime habit that makes you relaxed and quit stimulants, and some consultation with a doctor might be helpful on time.

I take aripiprazole for an episode of psychosis, can I take Yohimbine 5mg while on aripiprazole? Thank you
Male | 32
You did right checking before taking new meds. Aripiprazole treats psychosis; Yohimbine is for other issues. Together, they can interact badly, causing racing heart, high blood pressure, and anxiety. Talk to your psychiatrist before adding Yohimbine. It may not be safe with your meds. Best to avoid Yohimbine until your doctor clears it.
