I am 24 years old. I can't stop thinking about something I don't want to think about. It comes into my mind by itself and I start to feel depressed, anxious, and low. Is this any mental disorder?

Are your thoughts repetitive & intrusive? Are these thoughts creating any distress? if they do, we can diagnose this condition as OCD.

Hi, my name is aiden i am 14 years old and I've been wondering if there something wrong with me when i lay down on my chest i find it a lil hard to breathe sometimes i wonder if its axizety or i might be overthinking but other then that ive been having axizety making it hard for me to sleep and i just feels like my eyes are close but im not getting any sleep what should i do

Male | 14

When you lay on your chest and it feels hard to get air in, that could be from anxiety. Anxiety also makes it difficult for people to sleep well at night.  You can learn how to control your breathing when talking about it with them and other ways of calming down too if they know about it. Try doing things before going to bed like making a routine so that every time before sleep you will make sure that you get into bed more easily also practice good habits around sleep like not watching any screens an hour before bedtime because they keep awake longer which means fewer hours spent resting. If these symptoms stay or get worse then maybe it's time to see the doctor and tell them what’s been happening.

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.

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'm struggling to maintain cleanliness and proper hygiene. I'm just not able to do anything, either I want my surroundings to be too clean or very messy. I'm just not able to live anymore. I'm tired of everything. I just don't have any energy left. I was an academically perfect student but now even my grades started falling down.

Female | 17

Well, it seems that you could be having OCD symptoms like failing to keep up with hygiene and cleanliness. I suggest seeing a psychiatrists who works with OCD to discuss your symptoms and consider treatments.

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..........

Schizophrenia from 4 years

Male | 23

Schizophrenia is a brain disorder, due to which individuals may occasionally believe that they can see or hear things that are not there, are unable to control their thoughts and translate them into proper directions, experience paralyzing fear, or believe that other people are planning to harm them. Thus, it might be that their thoughts are disjointed and rather difficult to follow. It is often recognized as associated with confusion. A group of inheritable factors, as well as the influence of the environment, can be held responsible for the development of schizophrenia.

Hi I'm 20 years old female and I have insomnia and GAD since childhood and even I have backache since 5 years continuesly . I have used pain relief medicine for couple of days but haven't got any relief . What should I do now?

Female | 20

Lack of sleep can worsen anxiety and anxiety can make sleeplessness more terrible. The backache could be a manifestation of stress or a physical one. The treatment of these issues may include a healthcare professional who can explore different options such as therapy, relaxation techniques, or physical therapy. Overall, these problems must be addressed to better your health.

Can I take fermented vitamin b12 supplements as I am treating with antidepressants

Female | 43

 Vitamin B12 supplements from fe­rmented sources usually don't inte­ract badly with antidepressants. B12 is vital for nerve­ functions and making energy in your body. If you fee­l exhausted, weak, or have­ nerve issues, a B12 supple­ment could help. But always consult your doctor before­ taking new supplements to e­nsure they suit your nee­ds.

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.

The tetanus toxoid vaccine produces immunity by blocking the bacterial infection. If you see redness, warmth, or swelling, or if you have fever or muscle stiffness, contact the doctor as fast as you can. Monitor the different symptoms that may arise and just come back to us if there is any need
