Answered on 14th June '24
The perfect dose of clonazepam for insomnia may not be higher, e.g. 1 mg. The same applies to changing the dosage, they should talk to the psychiatrist first. Difficulty sleeping can sometimes be one side effect of clonazepam due to a medication like sertraline and the doctor will help get the right solution for the patient. Panic, fear, or other reasons may also be the sources of your sleep problems.

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.

You should visit a psychiatrist or even a psychologist trained on mental health. While masturbation does serve to offer a short-term release, it is not necessarily an effective cure for depression.

Male | 27
High levels of anxiety can interfere with your sleep and make things seem very scary. It's normal to have racing thoughts, restlessness, and physical symptoms such as sweating or shaking. This comes from a mix of genetics, brain chemistry, and the things you've been through. Speaking with a psychitrist is the best way to manage anxiety through therapy or medication.

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.

can i take propranolol before parachuting
Male | 24
If you take propranolol before skydiving, that might not be safe. Before such a high-energy activity the drug may slow down your pulse and lower blood pressure, which is risky. During acute stress situations such as this one it is necessary for the heart to beat fast so as to supply enough oxygen into the muscles thus enabling them carry out their functions effectively.

my mom is sick and very cold skin she is talking in her sleep to her dead mother and mumbling her teeth are clinking fast she can’t even eat
Female | 55
It seems that your mother is showing signs of a severe condition called sepsis. This occurs when the body overreacts to an infection and causes harm. The cold skin, rapid teeth chattering, and speaking with her deceased mother could indicate that she is extremely ill. Immediate medical attention is necessary to help her body fight off the infection and recover.

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.

Taking 5 escitalopram and 2 mirtazapine pills together can put your sister in great danger. This mix of medicines may make her very sleepy, confused, and give her a fast heartbeat or even seizures. These drugs can interact badly and harm her body. It is crucial to take her to the hospital right away so doctors can help her feel better and stop serious problems from happening.
