Consuming explicit content can influence mental well-being. Prolonged exposure may lead to desensitization, unrealistic expectations of relationships, and can impact focus and emotional health. Watching such material consistently, like nightly for a week, can increase anxiety and alter perceptions of intimacy. Recovery varies, often requiring behavioral changes and time away from such content to regain a balanced mindset. Engaging with romantic or sexually explicit media, including wedding videos, can also influence thoughts and emotions. It’s important to reflect on your choices and discuss concerns with a psychiatrist to navigate feelings and maintain mental health.

Anixety stress not able to sleep properly and not headache body pain

Female | 23

You are going through a stressful period that seems to be the cause of the insomnia and physical pain that you are experiencing. Stress can be the reason for these symptoms such as sleeping problems and bodily pains. You may try deep breathing and easy exercises to relax. Besides, it is good to tell your close friend about your feelings.

Can I take my xanax and drink orange juice?

Female | 71

To get the Xanax to work effectively, don't take it with orange juice. Xanax is in a class of medications called benzodiazepines. Mixing it with orange juice makes your body absorb Xanax less well because the juice's acidity interferes with this process.

I have difficulty falling asleep from few weeks i close my eyes but i cant sleep

Female | 15

This can be due to various factors, including stress, anxiety, or changes in routine. It often leads to fatigue and irritability, which can impact daily life. To improve your situation, could you set up a calming bedtime routine, limit screen time before sleeping, and ensure your sleeping environment is comfortable and dark. Regular physical activity can also promote better rest. However, if these strategies do not help, speaking with a healthcare professional would be best.

Hi I’ve been waking up at the same time every day for two weeks and every day I wake up either crying moving things around my room or having sleep pralysis I’ve suffered with this before but haven’t had it in ages

Female | 18

Slee­p paralysis is a sleep disorder that make­s you feel stuck. Your brain wakes up, but your body doe­sn't. This causes temporary paralysis which can be scary. You might fe­el afraid or confused. See­ing things move or crying are part of this expe­rience. To reduce­ sleep paralysis, have a re­gular sleep routine. Go to be­d at the same time e­ach night. Avoid screens before­ bed. If it keeps happe­ning, talk to a sleep specialist. The­y can guide you on what to do.

I am 24 year old i am overthinking last 4 years nahi merko nind aati hai subha bhi nahi aati jaise ankh band karta dimag mein kuch na kuch chalta rehta alcohol drink karta hoon toh jayada karunga tab nind aati hai bina piye jab kam drink karunga nind nahi aati

Male | 24

Sometimes as a way of managing the condition, you come to the idea of alcohol consumption to enable you to have a good night's sleep. But alcohol can become a habit and become a more serious problem in the long run. Factors such as stress, anxiety, or overconsumption of alcohol, are the usual suspects of sleep problems and irritability. Besides, to avoid sleep disorders, you can reduce alcohol intake and apply meditation before bed. Another effective approach is physical activity and sleeping at fixed times. If your sleep disturbances continue, do not hesitate to report them to a specialist who will examine you properly and offer you the best treatment.

My son aged 25 was learnt to be under your treatment.I neither know for what illness nor have his prescription.He is aggressive and wouldn't co-operate if I call him for consultation with you along with me and his mom although he said to have consulted you.The boy is confined to his room and is hostile towards me for reasons unbelievable.His mother, my wife was under Dr vijayakumar's treatment from 2000 for over a period of 10 years.Now she consults another psychiatrist as she was on a transferable job. I am 62 years old and my wife 56 years.She had taken VRS from Bank job six months ago. My son is only child and a pampered one.His behaviour isn't acceptable although he would appear normal. I am worried how I could manage to give him treatment through you as he is aggressive and may also leave home

Male | 25

Aggression and hostility may be symptoms of other problems such as anxiety or depression. It is very important to handle the situation with empathy and patience. Supporting him through the process like by advising him to reach out to a psychiatrist, can be helpful. The main approach to the matter is to allow him to freely express what he feels, thus he will be able to share his issues.

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 am studing but it is not entering my head I am facing it for last 1 month What to do?

Male | 21

If you are feeling tired all the time, running a fever, and experiencing general bodily malaise (like muscle aches), there is a chance that what you have could be caused by some kind of virus such as influenza. The important thing for now is making sure to drink lots of water, get plenty of sleep, and take over-the-counter medicines for symptomatic relief. However, should none of these measures work then I would advise seeking further guidance from your doctor or another healthcare professional.
