Thank you for sharing your experience. It sounds like your anxiety is closely linked to your stammering, which often happens when we feel nervous or out of control. It’s great that you’ve noticed situations where you feel more confident and don’t experience stammering—this insight can be really helpful. To manage anxiety, you can try grounding techniques like deep breathing or mindfulness exercises, which can help you stay calm in stressful situations. Therapy can also be very beneficial in understanding the root causes of your anxiety and developing strategies to reduce it. A speech therapist might also help with your stammering, especially in situations where anxiety triggers it. Remember, you’re not alone, and there are ways to work through these challenges.

Reducing anxiety involves a multi-faceted approach. Consider therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), to address the root causes of anxiety. Practice mindfulness and relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation to manage stress. Regular exercise can also positively impact mood and anxiety levels. Ensure a balanced lifestyle with adequate sleep and a healthy diet. If needed, consult a mental health professional for personalized guidance and potential medication options. It's crucial to address both the anxiety and stammering concerns comprehensively.

Male | 26
You are having insomnia issues. People with insomnia are those who experience difficulty falling asleep and/or staying asleep. The possibilities are that the discomfort is caused by stress, anxiety, or poor sleep patterns. To enhance your sleep quality, develop a sleeping habit, stay away from caffeine and screens before sleep, and create an atmosphere of relaxation. Should the problem persist, go for a psychiatrist's advice which can be helpful for you.

Hello i had a panic attack yesterday and my hands and feet were going numb also my mouth so i went to the ER they did 2 syringes in my stomach of Aqua then they did one behind of diazepam i am a regular smoker and i wanted to smoke could i? If i cant should i buy a no nicotine pack?
Female | 16
The numbness of hands, feet, and mouth is the result of decreased blood flow in panic attacks. The effect of smoking on the body can make people suffer from panic attacks. Given the fact that you were prescribed diazepam at the ER, smoking might hurt it. Stay away from smoking as it is better for you. If you are in bad shape and have to, you can try a no-nicotine pack.

Greetings to the doctor who is seeing my messages. I am facing a serious bad situation of sperm leakage or semen leakage. This starts when I was giving my matriculation exams. 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.

Hi, I am 35 F being treated for treatment resistant depression. I am on this regimen for 7 days now and have developed a benign rash allover my body. I am taking duloxtene, lustral, vilazodone, lamictal, and lurasidone. Please verify of these drugs don't have any serious interactions and what to do with my rash.
Female | 34
The drugs that you have mentioned are solely for the treatment of depression, and the great news is that they do not create any major interactions. The rash might be a result of the use of one of the medications, possibly Lamictal. Rashes can often occur while one takes this drug. I suggest you reach out to your doctor, inform them about the new symptom, and find out the best way to address it.

I’ve been taking Cipralex and Fluanxole for a few years and about 5 months before I started having exaggerated startle response (myoclonus and blinking as a reaction to a sudden stimulus). Can it be caused by antidepressants? I’m very scared :(
Female | 27
Various factors can contribute to this reaction, such as stress or underlying medical conditions. If you're concerned, it's important to consult a doctor for accurate evaluation and guidance on your symptoms and medication. Never alter your medication regimen without medical advice.

My cousin is suffering from schizophrenia. He used to have severe headaches, personality changes and he hear voices. He only use paracetamol for headaches but no cure. Please prescribe me medicine for headache.
Male | 18
It is of no less than significant to note that the problem of headache can be professionally diagnosed not only due to the lack of sleep but also the fact of day-to-day stress, or the emotional malaise. Lymph node noise is one of many common signs occurring both in the relative and a person undergoing the same condition. Schizophrenics may experience headaches. The use of paracetamol won't solve the question as the case is deeper. It's always a good idea to visit a physician to be treated correctly.

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.

Am I likely to develop schizophrenia? My father had it. I'm 19M , been depressed for 3 years like walking back and forth in my house , always talking to myself, deep interest for philosophy, 108 IQ
Male | 18
Symptoms such as self-talk may point to the possibility of one suffering from schizophrenia. Additionally, staying in a despondent mood for an extended period can indicate the same. You should seek help within your locality; talk to a psychiatrist or a therapist. They will walk with you till you fully recover from those mixed-up thoughts of yours.

Setra 50mg may give side effects sometimes. Feeling dizzy, headache, and nausea are common side effects. These often happen when you start taking the medicine. However, your body adjusts, and they go away. If side effects bother you, talk to your psychiatrist. They might change the dosage or suggest ways to manage symptoms. It's important to keep taking your prescribed medicine unless your doctor says otherwise.

Male | 49
These symptoms can be the result of chemical overload in the brain. The medication (etolozom. 25 tablets) prescribed to you might not be sufficient to improve concerns. You must talk to your doctor about other possible approaches or changes to your medication so that you can achieve better health.

Im a 15 year old one actually its not a disease or something bt im getting myself weak and scared and my heart beats are getting high its actually the exm results... Cbse class 10 results are on tmrw and im feeling myself loosing the strength
Female | 15
I can understand how waiting for exam scores makes you feel very bad. Your body can get weak, and afraid, and your heart can beat fast when you are anxious. It is just how your body acts when it feels stress. To feel good, try breathing deeply, talk to someone about how you feel, and do things you like. Remember, exam scores do not show who you are as a person.

I am 23 year old currently working as an assistant Professor, but for past 3years I have developed the habit of talking while sleeping and sometimes I'm shouting out of fear in the night while sleeping this was told by my mother. What is the reason. I want reduce this.
Female | 23
You may have something called sleep talking or night terrors. When one is stressed or anxious, they may talk or shout while normally sleeping. You can try to reduce the stress before going to bed by using some relaxation techniques or maybe even have a quiet bedtime routine. But if that doesn’t work out then I would advise you to see a sleep specialist who will be able to help further.
