Why Can't I Sleep Well for 2 Weeks?

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

1 Answer
Dr. Vikas Patel

Psychiatrist

Answered on 19th Sept '24

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.

I am getting this really weird thing where I feel like I’m in a dream all the time and I feel like I’m getting really confused all the time and it’s effecting how I learn with school and stuff I’m leaving in around 20 days to go to collage but it’s getting quite concernibg

It seems that you may be going through a type of depersonalization. That means that a person can observe life like an outside spectator from the viewpoint of seeing himself/herself acting. It can be associated with anxiety, stress, and other mental health issues as well. It is highly advised to communicate with someone you trust or a counselor about how you feel. They will be able to provide you with coping mechanisms. Besides, resting well, eating properly, and take a couple of breaths or practising mindfulness can also be beneficial to keep your mind at peace.

Hi, I got prescribed sertraline 50mg and wanted to start treatment. However, I took St John’s wort 3 days ago. Is this safe for me to start sertraline treatment tomorrow?

Female | 22

Se­rtraline helps with depre­ssion and anxiety. St. John's Wort is an herb that doesn't mix we­ll with sertraline. Togethe­r, they could cause serotonin syndrome­ - symptoms like confusion, fast heartbeat, and high blood pre­ssure. It's better to wait 2 we­eks after stopping St. John's Wort before­ starting sertraline. This preve­nts any issues from occurring.

Can I take methylphenidate and clonidine HCL .1mg together?

Male | 21

Methylphenidate can be taken with Clonidine, but make sure to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.  Methylphenidate is used for ADHD and Clonidine is sometimes used for high blood pressure as well as ADHD.  Combining them might help to control symptoms such as hyperactivity, impulsivity, or inattention.  If you have any worries or notice any new symptoms then always talk to your doctor about it.

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.

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.

Male | 14

You might have acid reflux making your chest feel weird after eating. It could also be anxiety. Dry, scratchy eyes are another sign of being anxious. You should try eating more slowly and staying away from spicy foods as well as doing relaxation exercises or talking with someone you trust about what's on your mind Managing your anxiousness can also help with relieving dryness so if needed use some artificial tears.
