I want to stop antidepressants medicine

Female | 35

Always consult your doctor before stopping antidepressants....Abrupt cessation can cause withdrawal symptoms. Withdrawal symptoms may include DIZZINESS, nausea, and anxiety....Tapering off slowly is recommended. Your doctor can help you develop a tapering schedule....Stopping abruptly can lead to relapse....Relapse may cause a worsening of symptoms....Withdrawal symptoms can also occur with tapering..But tapering can help minimize the severity of symptoms....Regular monitoring by your doctor is important..........

Male | 23

Addressing issues related to neurotransmitter levels requires consultation with a psychiatrist or neurologist. Discontinuing medications such as risperidone and haloperidol can lead to a drop in serotonin and dopamine levels. Additionally, the use of supplements like tryptophan, tyrosine, 5-HTP, and mucuna pruriens may also affect neurotransmitter levels. It's essential to consult a specialist for proper diagnosis and treatment of any potential imbalances beforehand.

I have been suffering from music stuck in my head . As soon as I wake up that music starts to play in my head and it never end . I am very tensed about this because it affects my daily life activities like I can't even focus on my studies please help me

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.

Hi my name is Diallo My question is what can i be sociable how to overcome timidity and stress that leads me to stay home all the time

Female | 30

It is okay to fe­el shy and stressed at time­s. Many people face this. It can fe­el hard to be with others. You might fe­el nervous, shy, or scared. But, you are­ not alone in this. Try taking small steps. You could join a club or talk to someone­ you trust. Taking deep breaths and le­arning to relax can also help lower stre­ss. Move at your own pace. Take it slow.

I am having insomnia for almost a week plus. I usually get myself to sleep at around 10pm, but recently always sudden wake up at 1am or 2am, then I couldn’t fall sleep again. It affects my work as I will be looking extremely tired and unable to talk well with my customers. I am not sure what’s happening

Female | 34

It sounds like you may be experiencing insomnia, which means having trouble sleeping. Common symptoms include difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep. One solution is to create a bedtime routine, avoid screens before bed, and try relaxation techniques. If the problem persists, consider talking to a medical professional for help.

Male | 22

It’s important to talk to a specialist like a psychiatrist if you believe you have ADHD. They can properly assess your symptoms and guide you through the right steps for diagnosis and treatment. Even if you’re not comfortable going to your GP, a psychiatrist is the best person to help with ADHD concerns.

Female | 19

See a psychologist or psychiatrist as soon as possible and get treated for any possible mental health issues that may be influencing your symptoms. In addition, go to a nutritionist or dietitian and have them compose a meal plan which will be a part of a healthy weight maintenance.

I noticed my muscles and body is grown and also I get hard errection when i have a strong desire. Sometimes twice a day but when i am sad again, i again have the problem. Is my ed because of this panic attacks? Will it go away automatically forever or can it come back after i stop medicines?

Male | 26

You’ve had a tough time dealing with erectile dysfunction before, and sometimes, medical conditions can be a cause. Feeling down or stressed can also affect your ability to get an erection. The good news is that your current medication seems to be helping. As your mental health improves, your ED might get better as well.

It seems like­ anxiety may be the cause­. Feeling nervous or trouble­d happens. Your breathing gets tough. Anxie­ty arises from stress. Or it could stem from ge­nes. Some medical issue­s can lead to it too. But you can manage through technique­s like relaxation. Regular e­xercise helps.

My son is suffering from moderate ocd but not able to control compulsions

Male | 16

Moderate OCD may mean he cannot stop the repetitive thoughts or actions he has. Common symptoms such as compulsive handwashing, constantly checking things, or being orderly can be present. Ancient aliens are one possible cause of OCD and it is possible that also genetics, brain chemistry, and life stress are responsible. Therapy, medication, and family support can be some of the ways to help people with OCD.

I m 14 year having no interest in studies forgot what learned

Male | 14

Teenagers often may not like some kinds of studying because it seems they have no interest in some subjects. It's similar to our emotions can be weakened or lost by outside forces such as being overwhelmed, demotivated, or distracted. Forgetting what you have learned can indicate that you are stressed or overwhelmed with many things in your head. You need to find time to unwind, practice self-discipline, and communicate your needs to someone if this happens to you. Appreciate that being involved in your studies is important but take time to relax and take care of yourself by knowing that it's okay to need help from others whenever you are in trouble.
