This might be that the night shifts have disturbed your body's internal clock, which can lead to sleeplessness. The lack of sleep can also be a contributing factor to anxiety. Try to make a sleep schedule and stick to it, avoid caffeine and screens before bed, and relax your mind with deep breathing or gentle music before going to sleep.

I was taken daxid 50 mg tablet .I am feared that tablet side effects.if any problem are effected male sexual hormone level
Male | 19
It is completely understandable to worry about the side effects of a medicine. Male hormone levels can be affected by Daxid 50 mg occasionally. This might lead to symptoms such as low sex drive or difficulty in achieving an erection. The reason for this is that the drug has an impact on serotonin levels in the brain. If you are going through these things, it would be best to talk to your doctor about them.

I have ommetaphobia. How I can overcome my phobia
Female | 23
There's a fear called ommetaphobia; it's being scared of eyes. Someone with this phobia might feel anxious, afraid, or ill when seeing eyes. An unpleasant experience or simply discomfort with eyes could cause this fear. To overcome it, try talking to a psychiatrist about your feelings. Practice relaxing techniques like deep breathing. Slowly expose yourself to situations involving eyes.

My brother suffer from ocd or schizopherenia his doctor says
Male | 27
He is at risk of developing OCD or schizophrenia. OCD involves unwanted thoughts and fears that lead to repetitive actions, such as excessive cleaning or organizing. Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that distorts thoughts, feelings, and behavior, with symptoms like hearing voices or having delusions. Both conditions can be influenced by genetics and environment. OCD is typically treated with therapy and medications, while schizophrenia treatment often includes antipsychotic medications and therapy. It's important to encourage your brother to see his psychiatrist for a check-up and discuss the best treatment options for his symptoms.

I’ve been struggling with sleep the slightest bit of light or noise and sometimes even nothing makes me not able to sleep I’ve been getting frustrated and upset really easily and I’ve been over eating
Female | 18
You might find that insomnia and stress are your main issues. Trouble sleeping can be caused by a little bit of light or noise. Feelings like anger, being upset, and eating too much can lead to other problems. Try creating a soothing bedtime routine, like reading a good book or taking a hot bath. Avoid screen time and large meals before bed. If these steps don't help, seek professional advice from a gynecologist.

I just quit smoking weed 3 days ago. Also just got prescribed venlafaxine for my anxiety. How long should i wait to start taking them?
Female | 20
The period of 7 days should pass after you have quit smoking weed. There should be a week's break between the two treatment regimens. Make sure to stay patient and let your body adapt to the medications.

Male | 24
Based on what you’ve said, your weight loss, sadness, tenseness, and nervousness could be symptoms of chronic stress. When we experience stress for a long time, it affects our minds and our body. You should try to take it easy and find some ways to cope with stress — for example, deep breathing exercises, confiding in a friend, or doing something fun. If things don’t get better, think about talking to a psychiatrist or counselor.

Female | 16
If you are enduring the pain of a headache and overthinking while studying, it is vital to attend to the root issue. I advise you to refer to a neurologist to exclude possible medical problems of headache origin. As well, you can try to get support from the mental health professionals, like psychiatrists, who can show you how to manage your tendency to overthink and develop the necessary discipline and consistency in studies.

Hello i had a panic attack yesterday and my hands and feet were going numb also my mouth so i went to the ER they did 2 syringes in my stomach of Aqua then they did one behind of diazepam i am a regular smoker and i wanted to smoke could i? If i cant should i buy a no nicotine pack?
Female | 16
The numbness of hands, feet, and mouth is the result of decreased blood flow in panic attacks. The effect of smoking on the body can make people suffer from panic attacks. Given the fact that you were prescribed diazepam at the ER, smoking might hurt it. Stay away from smoking as it is better for you. If you are in bad shape and have to, you can try a no-nicotine pack.

I had drug induced psychosis how can I know if it’s only drug induced psychosis or if it’s like schizophrenia or something
Male | 22
A psychiatrist’s consult needs to make a determination whether your psychosis is substance abused induced or if it may signify a more serious mental illness, like schizophrenia. A psychiatrist can conduct a comprehensive assessment and steer you in the right direction for treatment. I suggest that you see a psychiatrist who specializes in psychotic disorders.

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.

im concerned about my mental health
Female | 16
If you are unhappy, anxious, or angry most of the time; struggle to focus, or no longer find pleasure in activities you once enjoyed, then it might be helpful for you to know that these are symptoms of a possible mental health problem. If you want to feel better, consider talking it out with someone who you trust – this helps more than keeping everything bottled up inside which only makes matters worse over time. You could also try some relaxation exercises like deep breathing techniques or mindfulness meditation; keeping busy through physical exercises such as jogging or swimming may help too – not forgetting to seek professional help/guidance from a counselor/therapist.

Depression problem I want the cure of this disease it's so important and i am very disturbed
Male | 17
Coping with the down mood that you do feels like a deep abyss, you are dealing with severe depression. It can be both emotional and physical parts of you, feel like you have lost hope, you are so exhausted that don't want to move, and you don't care about anything anymore. Visiting a psychiatrist and venting can help you feel consoled. It may be suggested that a combination of counseling and drugs would be the right course of action to treat the condition.

It seems you have already been dealing with anxiety for a while, it definitely can be a hard thing to do. Anxiety can make you feel nervous, scared, etc. It could occur due to stressful situations, genetics, or the imbalances of your brain chemicals. To cope with anxiety effectively, you have to open up about your feelings to someone you can trust, do relaxation exercises, work out regularly, and make sure to get enough sleep.
