It's great that you're looking to enhance your cognitive function. Alpha GPC is generally regarded as safe and may provide benefits like improved memory. However, since you're taking medications such as fluvoxamine, aripiprazole, and vortioxetine, it's essential to be cautious. These medications can interact with supplements. I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider, who can offer personalized advice based on your treatment plan. Ensuring your safety and well-being is the priority, and your doctor will help you make the best choice for your cognitive health.

I feel sleepy all the time but then also I don't want to sleep.

Male | 21

Often, a constant fe­eling of tiredness ye­t not wanting to sleep signals slee­p issues or irregular routine. Pe­rhaps insufficient rest or poor slee­p patterns occur. Stress, exce­ssive screen time­, or inadequate exe­rcise contribute. Establish a regular sle­ep schedule. Limit caffe­ine and sugar intake and wind down before­ bed.

Male | 23

Feeling mentally overwhelmed and stuck in repetitive patterns for an extended period can be a sign of anxiety. This may lead to symptoms like restlessness, sleep disturbances, and heightened alertness. The causes of anxiety can vary, ranging from stress and genetics to imbalances in brain chemicals. To manage these feelings, practicing mindfulness, exercising, and talking to someone can significantly improve your well-being.

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.

I’ve been taking Cipralex and Fluanxole for a few years and about 5 months before I started having exaggerated startle response (myoclonus and blinking as a reaction to a sudden stimulus). Can it be caused by antidepressants? I’m very scared :(

Female | 27

Various factors can contribute to this reaction, such as stress or underlying medical conditions. If you're concerned, it's important to consult a doctor for accurate evaluation and guidance on your symptoms and medication. Never alter your medication regimen without medical advice.

I sent my friend to the hospital as she took Ativan and trazodone together will she be able to walk ok

Female | 26

Combining Ativan and trazodone can induce excessive sleepiness and instability in walking. As a result, a person may experience difficulties in walking and an increased likelihood of falling. There are some symptoms to be on the lookout for: extreme drowsiness, confusion, and dizziness. If your friend has taken these two medications together, it is crucial to stay with them and assist them in walking if necessary to avoid any accidents. Taking such combinations of medicines is not always advisable; hence you are advised to avoid it.

I am 30 years old and I would like to meet psychologist. My thoughts are not stable. Don't know how to proceed in relationship.

Female | 30

Feeling uncertain and overcome with the numerous challenges of life are common experiences for all humans. Let the mind revolve around a person' Emotional states are derived externally, inter alia, by persevering stress, nature and the like. Making a decision to consult a psychologist is in the step that moves a person forward. They find out the cause of the emotion that is out of control and they give you tools to manage it and repairing your relationships.

Female | 26

Tension aksar anxiety, neend ki kami, ya zyada pressure ki wajah se hoti hai. Symptoms mein chinta, neend nahi aana, ya thakaan shamil ho sakti hai. Aap rozana thodi der tak saans lene ki exercises karen aur healthy diet par dhyan dein. Stress ko manage karne ke liye yoga ya journaling bhi faydemand ho sakta hai. Agar yeh parashaniyaan barh rahi hain, toh kisi doctor se milna behtar hoga. Unse baat karne se aapko samadhan mil sakta hai.
