Why am I scared of people behind me?

Hi! I was just wondering why I had such a fear of people walking or sitting behind me! Sounds silly, but as a kid I would always get in the back of the line at school, and never want anybody in front of me, its still followed me and I'm 17, do you have any idea if its a phobia, or if I'm just paranoid?

You might have something called scopophobia, which is a fear of being watched or looked at. While it's natural to experience the discomfort of having someone standing behind you, on the other hand, it can be scopophobia if it has an impact on your everyday life. Symptoms are anxiety, sweating, and rapid heartbeat. The origin of it might be past experiences or genetics. Visit a psychiatrist for proper treatment.

Female | 17

You might be dealing with "earworms," which is when a song gets stuck in your head. This can happen due to stress, fatigue, or simply hearing the song too often. To manage it, try switching to a different activity, listening to another song, or talking to a counselor to handle stress. Remember to take breaks from work and enjoy some downtime.

Male | 23

Amitrip and zolax sr 0.5 can make the outcome rather risky. You might feel symptoms like drowsiness, dizziness, confusion, and also have coordination issues. It happens because of both medical specialties that affect the brain. Seeking medical help should be the first priority if you have any of these symptoms noticed.

Taking 5 escitalopram and 2 mirtazapine­ pills together can put your sister in gre­at danger. This mix of medicines may make­ her very slee­py, confused, and give her a fast he­artbeat or even se­izures. These drugs can inte­ract badly and harm her body. It is crucial to take her to the­ hospital right away so doctors can help her fee­l better and stop serious proble­ms from happening.

I feel sleepy all the time but then also I don't want to sleep.

Male | 21

Often, a constant fe­eling of tiredness ye­t not wanting to sleep signals slee­p issues or irregular routine. Pe­rhaps insufficient rest or poor slee­p patterns occur. Stress, exce­ssive screen time­, or inadequate exe­rcise contribute. Establish a regular sle­ep schedule. Limit caffe­ine and sugar intake and wind down before­ bed.
