You did right checking be­fore taking new meds. Aripiprazole­ treats psychosis; Yohimbine is for other issue­s. Together, they can inte­ract badly, causing racing heart, high blood pressure, and anxie­ty. Talk to your psychiatrist before adding Yohimbine. It may not be­ safe with your meds. Best to avoid Yohimbine­ until your doctor clears it.

Male | 25

This could be due to stress, not enough sleep, bad eating habits, or maybe even depression. The best thing to do is take care of yourself by getting enough rest each night; exercising regularly will also help keep your energy levels up throughout the day. Healthy food can improve mood swings associated with this condition. You’re still young so don’t worry too much.

I am 31 year old living alone abroad. I am working here and going through a phase of getting married. I have had previous short term relationships. My fiance is living in India and will be moving with me after marriage. The biggest struggle these days is getting flashbacks of the good days from previous relationships and not liking many things of my Fiance. Since the recent past, I'm having multiple panic attacks and want to cry (somehow not able to cry). Also, I am getting suicidal thoughts which was never the case before. Sometimes I also imagine completely disappearing and start a life somewhere with new Identity and losing all the contacts with family and friends.

I’ve been put on 4mg diazepam. Is that okay with 10mg ramipril. I have panic disorder and worry!

Female | 42

You're taking 4mg of diaze­pam, and 10mg of ramipril for panic disorder. These me­dicines interact. Diazepam boosts ramipril's e­ffect, causing low blood pressure, and dizzine­ss. They make you drowsier, dizzie­r, lightheaded. If expe­riencing these symptoms, consult your he­althcare provider about adjusting medications.

Sometimes I feel heavy hearted and my mind wanders sometimes, I am not calm and steady, my memory is also a little weak, I forget things often and I face difficulty in working anywhere. I have to listen to the scoldings of my boss.

Male | 26

Thank you for sharing how you’re feeling. It sounds like you’ve been under a lot of emotional and mental strain lately, which is affecting different areas of your life, including work and memory. It’s important to know that these challenges can often be linked to underlying stress, anxiety, or even lifestyle factors like sleep, diet, and workload. Consider taking some time to reflect on your daily routine and how manageable it feels. Are you getting enough rest? Are you giving yourself moments to pause and recharge? It may also help to talk to a psychologist or counselor who can guide you in understanding these emotions and their root causes. Therapy can offer practical ways to manage stress and regain balance, improving not just your focus but also your overall sense of well-being. You don’t have to navigate this alone—help is available, and reaching out is a great first step.

The symptoms you're describing could be due to a panic attack, which can sometimes mimic a heart attack. It's important to address this issue promptly. Make sure you take your antidepressants consistently as prescribed and consult a mental health expert for the best way to manage your anxiety. Stress management techniques, like deep breathing exercises, can also help with these symptoms.

You have been under a lot of pressure and are feeling stressed. Being very tired, short-tempered, or feeling a headache can be the symptoms of burnout. Nebulousness claims how harmful burnout can be. Enriching oneself with a plethora of activities can change the quality of your life. Explore the way you feel with someone you can trust.
