I'm 18 and my sister is 16 years old. We do sex twice or thrice a week with protection. Will it effect our physical health? I'm very attracted towards my sister.
Male | 18
Engaging in an incestuous relationship with your sister, even with protection, is discouraged and often illegal due to genetic risks, emotional harm, and societal norms. It's important to prioritize everyone's well-being and seek professional help for guidance. Legal consequences may vary depending on your jurisdiction, so it's crucial to consult with legal and mental health experts/ psychiatrist.

Feeling anxious, dizzy, and having trouble breathing happens when you're stressed, having a panic attack, or low iron. Slow breaths help. Talk to someone. Try relaxation exercises - breathe deep. Eat well, sleep lots. If it persists, tell someone you trust or see a psychiatrist.

Can i take ibuprofen with clonazepam together
Female | 26
Taking ibuprofen and clonazepam together isn't recommended unless your doctor approves it. If combined without medical advice, there's an elevated risk of undesirable effects: drowsiness, dizziness, breathing difficulties. Therefore, consult your psychiatrist before using these medications concurrently. They may suggest timing adjustments or alternative treatments to address your symptoms securely.

Female | 44
Being nervous and not being able to sleep are usual symptoms of stress among other things like migraines especially after a divorce. By the way, Stilpain should help ease the pain but it would be better if you could see a psychiatrist soon to discuss everything with them. They may be able to give some advice on how best to deal with such situations.

I am 23 year old currently working as an assistant Professor, but for past 3years I have developed the habit of talking while sleeping and sometimes I'm shouting out of fear in the night while sleeping this was told by my mother. What is the reason. I want reduce this.
Female | 23
You may have something called sleep talking or night terrors. When one is stressed or anxious, they may talk or shout while normally sleeping. You can try to reduce the stress before going to bed by using some relaxation techniques or maybe even have a quiet bedtime routine. But if that doesn’t work out then I would advise you to see a sleep specialist who will be able to help further.

Male | 26
You may have a gag reflex. This happens when your body is more sensitive to certain things you see, smell, or taste. It isn’t usually serious but it can be unpleasant. Try to steer clear of anything that makes you feel like this. If it won’t go away and bothers you, too, it might help to speak with a doctor about how to handle it.

Anxiety attacks and hyperventilation
Female | 25
When you get anxious, your body can start breathing too quickly, a condition known as hyperventilation. These symptoms can make you feel out of control, and shaky, and your heart might race fast. It occurs as a result of the brain's misinterpretation of the need for more air when the actual need is not. A technique called paper bag breathing, as well as breathing slowly, can help. Among such are uplifting leisure exercises such as mindfulness and deep breathing to mitigate your anxiety.

I am a 18 year old female , I’ve been struggling to eat for the past month because I eat small portions and I feel uncomfortable in my own skin as if I can’t take the small portions of food anymore it’s been happening for over a month
Female | 18
When eating small portions makes you uncomfortable, it's important to ask for help. This isn't normal behavior. It could signal anxiety, stomach issues, or an eating disorder. Don't ignore these signs. Trusted friends or family can support you in getting to the root cause. Seeking professional counseling from a psychiatrist may also provide clarity.

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.
