You should visit a psychiatrist or even a psychologist trained on mental health. While masturbation does serve to offer a short-term release, it is not necessarily an effective cure for depression.

I can't sleep properly. It's about 2 weeks I am facing this issue.

Female | 26

For the last two weeks, having difficulty getting to sleep or sticking to sleep could be a symptom of insomnia. This can be brought about by stress, worries, or even eating habits. Try setting a bedtime schedule, for example, going to bed and waking up at the same time every day. Say no to the stimulant beverage and technology before night's sleep. If this doesn't help, it's best to speak with your doctor.

How to reduce adrenaline anxiety?

The inner glands produce adrenaline. Adrenaline is also known as the “fight-or-flight hormone.” It's released in response to a stressful, exciting, dangerous, or threatening situation. Adrenaline helps your body react more quickly. One can reduce adrenaline by activating relaxation response ( in contrast of fight and flight response) by doing meditation, yoga, playing a sport, listening to music ect. One can do relaxation exercises like Jacobsons progressive muscular relaxation, pranayam and through guided imagery.

I do not know why am I unable to sleep at nights

Female | 27

Insomnia causes difficulty slee­ping. Stress, worries, caffe­ine late in the day could disturb your re­st. Insomnia shows itself through restless nights, tossing and turning be­fore slumber, or freque­nt waking. Develop a calming routine be­fore hitting the shee­ts. Avoid those bright scree­ns too.

Female | 16

Zertec and Flonase are antihistamines used for the treatment of allergies. And nasal congestion, but no direct evidence supports their association with depression On the other hand, if one is showing signs of depression it is necessary to visit a psychiatrist for accurate diagnosis and therapy, not self medication recommended

Just a short question, important. Why am I very restlessness

Male | 18

This feeling of restlessness may be induced by different factors, including anxiety, stress, caffeine use, side effects of medications, or an underlying medical problem. In case the condition persists for an extended time or disrupts normal daily living, one should make an appointment with a general practitioner or see a psychiatrist.

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 have ocd and I take 50 mg of sertraline in the morning and 0.5 mg of clonazepam at night but now I am having difficulty in sleeping so can I take 1 mg of clonazepam at night,please suggest me.

Male | 30

The perfect dose of clonazepam for insomnia may not be higher, e.g. 1 mg. The same applies to changing the dosage, they should talk to the psychiatrist first. Difficulty sleeping can sometimes be one side effect of clonazepam due to a medication like sertraline and the doctor will help get the right solution for the patient. Panic, fear, or other reasons may also be the sources of your sleep problems.

To minimize such effects, it's crucial to re­duce Deanxit dosage gradually unde­r medical guidance. Meanwhile­, staying hydrated, eating nutritious meals, re­sting enough, and doing light exercise­s may provide relief. But re­member, always kee­p your doctor informed about changing your dosage for e­ffective manageme­nt.

i will speak about my mom , so recently her eyes disturbance began a half hour ago, she dosen't stay hydrated for a long time she drinks from time to time, she uses the phone for hours straight , she dosen't sleep well, she has lack of sleep, when she said she has crisis ; she meant that her heart start beat fast and she start walking around because she said that she can't sit , she begin to stress hard and only think of bad consequences, she said that she can;t think well , her brain is in a mess as well as her thoughts swiming in bad thoughts , she said that she had panic attack pairing with these effects . So Doctor what is the solution what she have to do ?

Male | 18

Your mom could be going through anxiety and panic attacks. When a person’s heart is beating fast, can’t keep still, and has bad thoughts, it might be a panic attack. It could get worse if she doesn’t sleep well, take enough water and use the phone a lot. She ought to rest more, ensure she drinks sufficient water, and take breaks from the phone if she wants to feel better. Some deep breaths may help calm her down when having one. These signs should be reported to her general practitioner immediately.
