Male | 17
You might have Bipolar Disorder. You may have to deal with drastic changes in mood such as being very cheerful and energetic at one time and then later feeling very sad and downcast. At times, people with bipolar disorder can also experience hallucinations and paranoid thoughts. Proper communication with a psychiatrist is vital for getting the right diagnosis of your situation and working out the best treatment.

A burning head and shivering is hard. These signs may come from your meds. Some pills can make muscles stiff and make you shake. Tell your doctor about these troubles - they might change your medicine to help. It's key to report new issues while on medication.

15 male.is it okay to enjoy mastrabating in public. I don’t do it in front of people but it’s very arousing. Should i be concerned about this?
Male | 15
Engaging in self-pleasure in public areas is not socially acceptable. This conduct may indicate a psychological condition known as exhibitionism, where one derives arousal from exposing oneself publicly. Comprehending that such behavior is legally prohibited and can result in severe repercussions is crucial. Seeking a psychiatrist is advisable to address these urges and explore healthier coping mechanisms.

I'm 18 years old. I suffer from severe depression and self harm. I have my exams soon and I just can't sleep. I need to stay awake but even after consuming 2000mg of coffee, i feel like wanting to sleep. Should I eat more coffee?? How can I stay awake for longer periods if coffee isn't going to help.
Female | 18
This happens when your body gets accustomed to it. Instead of more caffeine, try: taking short breaks, stretching your legs, and splashing cold water on your face. Discussing depression and self-harm urges with someone is crucial. Seeking help from a psychiatrist is the best approach to improving well-being and staying alert naturally.

Female | 24
Your daughter may be experiencing social anxiety. This can show up as trembling, feeling awkward, or avoiding communication, especially with men. Social anxiety is common and can be influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.
To support her, try to be by her side, offering gentle encouragement to engage in social settings when she feels ready. Breathing exercises may help her relax, and you might consider working with a counselor or psychiatrist.

Sertraline is a medicine often used for anxiety and depression. Tattooing does not contain blood thinners but may result in minor bleeding. Thus it’s important to inform the tattoo artist about your intake of Sertraline so that they can take necessary precautions. To prevent any complications ensure you adhere to their aftercare advice.

Hi. I suffer from severe OCD, anxiety and depression and I'm on two antidepressants - fluoxetine and mirtazapine. I am wondering about the efficacy of vortioxetine in treating OCD, anxiety and depression and whether replacing mirtazapine with vortioxetine will bring improvement to my mental health. I can't find any information on Google. Both of them are atypical antidepressants. Is vortioxetine superior or inferior to mirtazapine in general? Someone told me that vortioxetine is "very mild" in terms of efficacy. Is that true? Thank you.
Male | 25
Like mirtazapine, vortioxetine is believed to help with anxiety, depression, and OCD. Some trials have shown vortioxetine may be useful for these conditions. However, everyone reacts to drugs differently. Therefore, you must talk to your doctor about any changes in your medication so that they can find something that will work for you.
