One of my relatives takes bromazepam 5mg occasionally for her sleeping issues. Another patient who also used to take bromazepam told me that it is it has some severe side effects. He suggested to take clonazepam 0.5 mg instead is clonazepam really better than bromazepam?
Female | 42
Your relative takes bromazepam and clonazepam for sleep issues and anxiety. Both medications work differently. Clonazepam can have fewer side effects for some people. However, talk to your psychiatrist before changing any medication. They know best about medications and can guide you properly.

I can't sleep I have tachycardia anxiety. Haven't slept for 2 days. I have lorazepam here how much should I take, I have never took anything like that.
Male | 35
The first thing to do is to make an appointment with your family doctor or a specialist to discuss your tachycardia anxiety. Lorazepam self-medication is not advised, and this is especially for those who have never used this drug. Taking the wrong dosage might lead to negative effects and it could also lead to other health problems. For this condition, you will need to consult a professional for a competent diagnosis and the most useful treatment.

Hello i had a panic attack yesterday and my hands and feet were going numb also my mouth so i went to the ER they did 2 syringes in my stomach of Aqua then they did one behind of diazepam i am a regular smoker and i wanted to smoke could i? If i cant should i buy a no nicotine pack?
Female | 16
The numbness of hands, feet, and mouth is the result of decreased blood flow in panic attacks. The effect of smoking on the body can make people suffer from panic attacks. Given the fact that you were prescribed diazepam at the ER, smoking might hurt it. Stay away from smoking as it is better for you. If you are in bad shape and have to, you can try a no-nicotine pack.

You might be having panic attacks which is overwhelming and scary.

Male | 18
It may feel like you might be caught in a storm of emotional pain from your stammering-induced rapid and racing thoughts. This state, caused by genetics or anxiety, is a great relief; however, when one's thought process is a vast emptiness that only confuses one's speech. Mind overload can lead to stuttering. The assistance of a therapist in overcoming your stress and thoughts becomes crucial.

It appears you're experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, leaf pain, migraine headaches, and B12 deficiency. These symptoms can be connected with different causes such as tension, lifestyle, or malnutrition. To cope with them, express your emotions, use relaxation techniques that are good for you, eat healthily, sleep well, and rest appropriately.

Several months ago, I experienced a sudden and strong fear in one of the cafes, to the point that I felt a squeeze in my heart, pain, and a very strong palpitation, as if it had reached my stomach. I had to cough to relieve the palpitations and suffocation. Days later, I quickly became afraid of the simplest, even daily, situations, even if a simple emotion caused me strong palpitations and suffocation. And the tremors and coldness of the extremities. I read about diseases of the adrenal gland and became very afraid. The condition increased with great fear. I now cannot stand leaving the house and am very afraid of any feelings, even if the feelings are happiness or good feelings and also i get dizzy when i stand up too fast is it possible that there is something dangerous with the adrenal gland?

Symptoms like depression
Female | 50
Sleeplessness or constant fatigue may also be indications of depression. Constant sorrow as well as regular sadness might indicate one is suffering from depression if one is not in a high mood throughout the day. There are instances when this is caused by things like genetics or chemicals within one’s brain. For one to feel better they need to talk about their problems with someone close; this person could be a friend, family member, or even a therapist.
