You seem to be showing some signs of dissociative identity disorder (DID), which is also called multiple personality disorder. These people might have several identities or alters that influence their behavior and they might not know about it. Usually, it happens due to severe trauma in the past. Therapy – especially cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) – can assist you in comprehending and managing these different personalities for a better life.

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 am on 20mg fluxetine one tablet a day i took 3 so 60mg as i missed a few days do i need to go to hospital
Female | 30
Hi there! Taking more medicine than the suggested dose can be bad. If you take 60mg of fluoxetine instead of 20mg, it can make you feel dizzy, mixed up, have a fast heartbeat, or even get seizures. It is important to stay calm and tell your doctor right away. The doctor will help you know what to do next to stay safe and healthy.

Can i take herbal vitamin b12 supplements while I am taking antidepressents.
Female | 43
Vitamin B12 herbal supplements go great with antidepressants. If B12 is low, feelings might be tired, weak, and dizzy. Antidepressants can make it hard for B12 to absorb properly in the body. A supplement helps keep normal B12 levels. Tell your doctor before starting any new supplement.

I am an 18 year old female and have recently been prescribed 25mg of setraline. However i haven't started taking it yet as i didn't feel i got to ask the questions that concerned me about starting this medication and talk about the side effects before committing to this medication.
Female | 18
Sertraline is often a drug to treat feelings of anxiety or depression. Undoubtedly, nausea, headaches, or tiredness can be among the common side effects. But these typically go away by themselves after a short period. If you notice anything that concerns you or if you have any unusual symptoms, speaking with your psychiatrist is a helpful thing to do.

I recently found out I am pregnant. I am currently on antidepressants (50mg quetiapine, 150m Lamotrigine and 20mg escitalopram) should I be worried about the baby's development. I also had a miscarriage before, what can I do to keep baby healthy, are there recommendations for supplements
Female | 33
Pregnant women should have normal worries when carrying a baby after a miscarriage. The medications you've been prescribed can influence the development of your baby but quitting them too quickly can also be dangerous. This is the reason why it is vital to discuss this with your doctor. To promote your child's health, eat healthy foods and take prenatal vitamins, especially folic acid.

Male | 19
Overthinking can make concentrating super hard. You might feel anxious or stressed too. With all those thoughts swirling around, it's no wonder you get overwhelmed sometimes! But don't worry, there are ways to chill out. Try taking deep breaths, meditating, or chatting with a psychiatrist.

Please I want to help her before it is too late,what is the first step that I can do.is there any over the counter medication that I can get for her

If your kids are crying easily, getting mad quickly, and can’t pay attention, they might have something called “childhood depression.” You did not cause this. It is nobody’s fault. One thing I would do is talk with a therapist/psychiatrist. There might be other ways doctors can think of to help your child and family.

Female | 55
Feeling sad constantly and having flashbacks of the bad times is not easy. This could be a sign that one is suffering from depression. The inability to sleep well and concentrate are also widespread symptoms of depression. Knowing that one is not alone and that there is help is vital. You can manage these emotions by therapy or taking drugs. Speaking to a mental health professional will help you know what to do.

Depression symptoms involve sadness, loneliness, and appetite changes. Don't ignore these signs - speak up. Trusted people like friends or family may help. Counselors or psychiatrists aid in managing emotions and coping mechanisms too. Mental health matters just like physical well-being.

I m 14 year having no interest in studies forgot what learned
Male | 14
Teenagers often may not like some kinds of studying because it seems they have no interest in some subjects. It's similar to our emotions can be weakened or lost by outside forces such as being overwhelmed, demotivated, or distracted. Forgetting what you have learned can indicate that you are stressed or overwhelmed with many things in your head. You need to find time to unwind, practice self-discipline, and communicate your needs to someone if this happens to you. Appreciate that being involved in your studies is important but take time to relax and take care of yourself by knowing that it's okay to need help from others whenever you are in trouble.

Male | 25
Social anxiety causes extreme discomfort in social situations such as communicating with people or being in a mass of people. It is attributed to both genetic and environmental factors. These conversations help cut down these fears. This is an indication that everyone is involved and seeking help. Please visit a psychiatrist so they can counsel you about how to manage this.

I’m 24 yr having anxiety and feeling low pls tell how to treat it
Female | 24
Being upset and worried is hard to bear. These emotions are largely due to stress or life changes attributed to many causes. Some of the signs are constant worrying, being afraid, or a disturbed sleep schedule. So, talk to a person, like a friend, or a family member. After that, engaging yourself in activities you prefer and getting enough sleep can help.

All these could be symptoms of depression, which affects both the body and the mind. You may feel tired all the time, lose interest in things that used to make you happy, or even think about hurting yourself when you are depressed. These emotions should not be kept to oneself and talking to someone such as a counselor or therapist who can offer help through different methods including therapy sessions or medication might be a good start.

I know you feel really low at the moment. Many people experience life seeming meaningless sometimes. But there is hope – things can improve.

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

I have been diagnosed with insomnia when I was 12 but I think I have a more severe case of insomnia, I’ve been awake for more then 29 hours and I can not sleep I have tried to Wind down but nothing is working and this goes on for days till my body finally gives out
Female | 16
You have a severe case of insomnia. Insomnia is a health problem where a person has trouble falling asleep or staying asleep. Some common symptoms are difficulty concentrating, tiredness, and excessive irritability. Causes such as stress, anxiety, or an unhealthy sleep schedule can produce insomnia. Practicing a bedtime routine, not drinking coffee near bedtime, and relaxation will greatly influence your sleep. If you continue to experience sleeplessness, you need to consult a psychiatrist for additional advice.
