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.

Porn addiction very much. How can I overcome this problem
Male | 45
It can also be triggered by different aspects like stress, and boredom, or it might be just a custom factor. To get over it this, try imposing some limits like sticking to certain times of the day to spend in front of the television, discovering other hobbies or activities that will mean a busy mind, or enlisting the help of friends or a therapist who can work with you through these moments and to the source why you choose porn.

It is important to bear in mind that reduced energy, as well as poor concentration, are often signs of an underlying medical illness. I suggest visiting a psychiatrist who can take an accurate diagnosis.

I have GAD and hypothyroidism. I've been diagnosed with hypothyroidism for 1 year and GAD for almost 5 months and taking meds regularly. But I don't know if I'll recover from this. I'm tired like really tired. Will it ever be fine. Will I ever be fine?
Female | 16
GAD along with underactive thyroid driving can make you very tired. This is because your thyroid becomes stubborn with time which indirectly and gradually drains your energy level. The plus side is that you can get the right treatment and help and be well on your way to recovery. Sticking to your pills, having a good diet, and getting enough rest are essential. The process of healing will allow you over time to get back to being yourself again.

There's a fear called ommetaphobia; it's being scared of eyes. Someone with this phobia might feel anxious, afraid, or ill when seeing eyes. An unpleasant experience or simply discomfort with eyes could cause this fear. To overcome it, try talking to a psychiatrist about your feelings. Practice relaxing techniques like deep breathing. Slowly expose yourself to situations involving eyes.

I visited a psychiatrist and he prescribed me these meds. Daxtin 20mg Daxtin 40mg Fluvoxamine 50mg Etilaam .25mg Explain these medicines from all perspective and help me get a pros and cons list
Male | 21
Here's some brief information about the medicines that your psychiatrist has recommended: 1. Daxtin 20mg and Daxtin 40mg: These are prescribed for depression. These drugs can help increase the serotonin and norepinephrine levels, improving your mood and energy. 2. Fluvoxamine 50mg: It's also great for depression and anxiety. It works better for sleep and decreases the level of anxiety. 3. Etilaam 0.25mg: It cures anxiety and panic attacks. Positive: Such products have the potential to alleviate depression, give you a good night's sleep, and anxiety at a manageable level.
Negative: It might bring alongside other effects such as vomiting, giddiness, and drowsiness. In other words, these medications are intended to make you feel better, but they can also cause other health problems. Do not stop taking them on your own – always take them as your doctor has prescribed and notify them of any discrepancies in your condition!

Hello, I am 30 years old. I have been suffering from panic attacks, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder for 7 years. I went to a psychologist, looked at my condition and prescribed medications. Medication: Velaxin twice a day, half a tablet of Abizol, zolomax 2/1 tablet, 1 tablet after 3 days. I take these medications. I'm afraid to use it. I went to a heart doctor and he examined me and said my heart was healthy. What I want to ask you is, do these drugs harm people?
Kişi | 30
It’s totally okay to feel worried about the medications you’ve been given. Velaxin is for anxiety and panic attacks, Abizol and Zolomax are for anxiety and OCD. These drugs are generally safe when used correctly but can cause dizziness or drowsiness as common side effects. You must follow your doctor’s orders and tell them if anything strange is happening to you.

Lack of sleep can worsen anxiety and anxiety can make sleeplessness more terrible. The backache could be a manifestation of stress or a physical one. The treatment of these issues may include a healthcare professional who can explore different options such as therapy, relaxation techniques, or physical therapy. Overall, these problems must be addressed to better your health.

Mene librium 10 ki 6 tablet li hai abhi
महिला | 30
If you take 6 Librium 10 tablets at once, it is dangerous. Librium is a drug used for treating anxiety which can make you feel sleepy or confused as well as lead to shallow breathing when taken in large amounts. To avoid any negative effects, make sure to take only the dose prescribed by your doctor and contact them immediately if you believe that you have overdosed on this medicine so that they can advise accordingly.

How can you quit smoking permanently with the help of medicine
Female | 22
Smoking cigarettes has negative effects. You can stop with assistance and commitment. Medicines help make quitting manageable. Smoking harms your lungs, heart, and raises cancer risk. Nicotine patches or gum reduce cravings, fight withdrawal. Stick with prescribed dosages. Support from loved ones strengthens determination. It's difficult, but achievable with perseverance and help.

Hi I’ve been waking up at the same time every day for two weeks and every day I wake up either crying moving things around my room or having sleep pralysis I’ve suffered with this before but haven’t had it in ages
Female | 18
Sleep paralysis is a sleep disorder that makes you feel stuck. Your brain wakes up, but your body doesn't. This causes temporary paralysis which can be scary. You might feel afraid or confused. Seeing things move or crying are part of this experience. To reduce sleep paralysis, have a regular sleep routine. Go to bed at the same time each night. Avoid screens before bed. If it keeps happening, talk to a sleep specialist. They can guide you on what to do.

Male | 19
Daxid 50 mg could influence sexual hormones in certain individuals. They may experience symptoms such as changes in libido or trouble getting aroused. This could be because some drugs interfere with the body’s hormone levels. If you notice these changes, discuss them with your doctor. They can find a remedy for this issue or change your medication if necessary. Pay attention to how you feel and if anything seems wrong, don’t hesitate to ask for assistance.

Hi! I was just wondering why I had such a fear of people walking or sitting behind me! Sounds silly, but as a kid I would always get in the back of the line at school, and never want anybody in front of me, its still followed me and I'm 17, do you have any idea if its a phobia, or if I'm just paranoid?
Other | 18
You might have something called scopophobia, which is a fear of being watched or looked at. While it's natural to experience the discomfort of having someone standing behind you, on the other hand, it can be scopophobia if it has an impact on your everyday life. Symptoms are anxiety, sweating, and rapid heartbeat. The origin of it might be past experiences or genetics. Visit a psychiatrist for proper treatment.

Male | 26
You had a tough experience, it seems. The symptoms like nervousness, sweating, throwing up, and difficulty sleeping could point to anxiety. Anxiety can sometimes cause physical signs including stomach issues. Try to calm down by taking deep breaths and avoiding spicy or acidic foods. If symptoms don't go away, speaking to an expert could provide more help.

Hi - I am taking for 10 months now mirtazipine 30 mg. Is it ok to half the dose - or do I need to build down more slowly? I gain a lot of weight … Thank you
Female | Joke
A common side effect of mirtazapine is weight gain. Talk with your doctor before you reduce your dose. They might recommend a strategy to decrease the dose gradually so that you won't have withdrawal symptoms. It is dangerous to quickly change your dose; therefore, it is necessary to do it carefully under the supervision of your doctor.
