Answered on 8th Oct '24
You might have Bipolar Disorder. You may have to deal with drastic changes in mood such as being very cheerful and energetic at one time and then later feeling very sad and downcast. At times, people with bipolar disorder can also experience hallucinations and paranoid thoughts. Proper communication with a psychiatrist is vital for getting the right diagnosis of your situation and working out the best treatment.

I am a 27 year old male struggling with severe everyday anxiety for 2 years. My anxiety causes me to have sleepless nights and sometimes it feels like I'm Going to lose my mind or lose control of my entire body.
Male | 27
Anxiety can bring about sleep difficulties and a sense that something awful might happen. This type of disorder is often seen among youth and other causes include stress, genetics among others. To manage this condition one may want to try engaging in exercises such as yoga which helps big time in calming down both our minds and bodies, deep breathing also works well for some people, or even talking to someone about how they feel either friends or therapists can be helpful too.

Hi doctor my age is 20 I am female I have issues in breathing since my childhood mostly this occurs when I am in stress please provide me solutions how I overcome this
Female | 20
In this case, you might be experiencing asthma, which is the source of your breathing difficulties, especially when you are stressed out or under emotional pressure. Try yoga, stretching exercises, deep breathing techniques, or meditation as a form of relaxation when you notice stress building up. On the other hand, if you see no improvement, report the issue to a psychiatrist to further explore and personalize treatment.

Do you practice emdr or neurofeedback therapy for your patients who are suffering from psychological trauma?
Female | 40
EMDR helps process trauma memories, while neurofeedback teaches the brain to calm itself. Both treatments can help, but it's wise to consult a psychiatrist first. That way, you can find the right therapy approach suited for your unique problem.

I've had this issue for a long time; the notion of having sex with my family members crosses my mind, and even though I know it's not ethically proper, I can't stop myself. Even the notion that the person with whom I want to have sex wants to have sex with me occurs to me. As a result, I've been into a lot of difficulty. I am always depressed.

My name is Deepali age 22 I have been listening to subliminal since last 4 - 5 days and since yesterday I am having side effects like dizziness brain fog nausea and blur vision can you please suggest what to do ????
Female | 22
It would appear that you have the feeling of an uncomfortable symptom like nausea, dizziness, blurred vision, and brain fog. Often this is the result of stress, fatigue, or even your body's reaction to the silent subaudio. The thing is consciously leaving them to have a chance to get relaxation to mind and body is a must. Try to drink water regularly, guarantee that you have enough sleep, and reflect on slow-tempo activities like walking. If your symptoms persist or worsen, I strongly recommend you consult a Psychiatrist for a thorough evaluation and guidance.

Want to quit from drugs so i want to consult a doctor
Male | 47
Deciding to stop substance use is a commendable step toward a healthier life. Withdrawal symptoms can include anxiety, irritability, and physical discomfort, which indicate your body’s adjustment process. These issues often stem from prolonged use and can be managed with appropriate care. I strongly encourage you to seek professional guidance from a psychiatrist. They can offer personalized support, including therapy and possibly medication, to ease your transition.

I have ocd with medicine fluvoxamine 200, Mg aripipirazole 2mg and vortioxetine 20mg and i am not able to concentrate and focus on studies and i also day dreaming while studying and not able to sit for study more than 5 minutes or more than 1 topic please tell me which medicine i should take but my doctor online doc has told to eat modafinil but online research papers said that modafinil increases the symptoms of ocd
Male | 24
Your symptoms may relate to your OCD and medication effects. While Modafinil may help with alertness, research indicates it might exacerbate OCD symptoms for some individuals. I recommend discussing your concerns with your psychiatrist, who can review your medications and possibly adjust them for better efficacy. Additionally, exploring strategies such as brief, focused study sessions or mindfulness techniques might aid your concentration.

I am 25 years old and 228, first time seeing this doctor. She prescribed me lisnopril 2.5mg only take if my blood pressure rises and my heart rate was fast. I get nervous easily and have anxiety
Female | 25
You are dealing with some anxiety and fast heart rate. It's not unusual for your heart to fasten up when you are nervous. Anxiety can sometimes lead to high blood pressure as well. The drug lisinopril 2.5mg can reduce high blood pressure but only when you need it, for example, if your blood pressure becomes too high. You should practice visualization techniques and keep calm to overcome your anxiety.

You seem to have some symptoms associated with a mixture of anxiety, insomnia, headaches, chest pain, and depression.

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 sent my friend to the hospital as she took Ativan and trazodone together will she be able to walk ok
Female | 26
Combining Ativan and trazodone can induce excessive sleepiness and instability in walking. As a result, a person may experience difficulties in walking and an increased likelihood of falling. There are some symptoms to be on the lookout for: extreme drowsiness, confusion, and dizziness. If your friend has taken these two medications together, it is crucial to stay with them and assist them in walking if necessary to avoid any accidents. Taking such combinations of medicines is not always advisable; hence you are advised to avoid it.

Male | 23
Amitrip and zolax sr 0.5 can make the outcome rather risky. You might feel symptoms like drowsiness, dizziness, confusion, and also have coordination issues. It happens because of both medical specialties that affect the brain. Seeking medical help should be the first priority if you have any of these symptoms noticed.

My cousin is suffering from schizophrenia. He used to have severe headaches, personality changes and he hear voices. He only use paracetamol for headaches but no cure. Please prescribe me medicine for headache.
Male | 18
It is of no less than significant to note that the problem of headache can be professionally diagnosed not only due to the lack of sleep but also the fact of day-to-day stress, or the emotional malaise. Lymph node noise is one of many common signs occurring both in the relative and a person undergoing the same condition. Schizophrenics may experience headaches. The use of paracetamol won't solve the question as the case is deeper. It's always a good idea to visit a physician to be treated correctly.

Female | 21
Mental pressure, depression, trust issues, and childhood trauma can make it very difficult for a person to go through life. Symptoms can be sadness, anxiety, insomnia, and loss of appetite. These emotions may be triggered due to some past experiences and stress. Speaking with a therapist or psychiatrist about your feelings and developing coping strategies is crucial to get stronger and be more resilient when dealing with problems.

To reduce or quit excessive masturbation, gradually reduce frequency, identify triggers, and find alternative activities to occupy your time. Establish a daily routine, limit access to triggering materials, and practice relaxation techniques to manage stress. Seek support from friends or a therapist, and remember that occasional masturbation is normal. If needed, consider professional help. Breaking the habit takes time and patience, so be kind to yourself
