Lack of Sleep I want some sleeping pills
Psychiatrist
Answered on 5th Aug '24
The signs of sleep deprivation, such as feeling exhausted, being moody, and having difficulties concentrating, can be bothersome. The reasons can be stress, too much screen time before bed, or a noisy environment you cannot control. Rather than sleeping pills, develop a soothing bedtime routine, such as reading a book or taking a warm bath to calm your mind. It can help you get the sleep you need.

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.

It seems that you may be going through a type of depersonalization. That means that a person can observe life like an outside spectator from the viewpoint of seeing himself/herself acting. It can be associated with anxiety, stress, and other mental health issues as well. It is highly advised to communicate with someone you trust or a counselor about how you feel. They will be able to provide you with coping mechanisms. Besides, resting well, eating properly, and take a couple of breaths or practising mindfulness can also be beneficial to keep your mind at peace.

Anxiety can make you feel nervous, scared, etc. It could occur due to stressful situations, genetics, or the imbalances of your brain chemicals.

Female | 30
Hi there! Taking more medicine than the suggested dose can be bad. If you take 60mg of fluoxetine instead of 20mg, it can make you feel dizzy, mixed up, have a fast heartbeat, or even get seizures. It is important to stay calm and tell your doctor right away. The doctor will help you know what to do next to stay safe and healthy.

I'm 21 years old and I feel so low and sometimes I feel very stressed and after stressing about thing I fell difficulty in sleeping I did a online depression test and it shows like I have high depression
Female | 21
Being sad and stressed out at your age is a hard situation, but you're not the only one feeling that way. Being sad, nervous, tired, and having difficulty sleeping are among the indicators of depression. Tension can make these experiences even more burdensome. Possible reasons for this could be genes, stress, or life events. Things that can help you improve your mood are talking to a psychiatrist, playing sports, and spending your free time with activities that make you happy.

Overthinking can make concentrating super hard. You might feel anxious or stressed too. With all those thoughts swirling around, it's no wonder you get overwhelmed sometimes! But don't worry, there are ways to chill out. Try taking deep breaths, meditating, or chatting with a psychiatrist.

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.

Hello, I wanted to know that can we start taking Bedranol a day before any stress inducing event for anxiety relief?
Female | 18
It's good to think about ways to cope with anxiety before something stressful occurs. Bedranol, or propranolol, can help with physical anxiety symptoms like rapid heartbeat and shaking. It's usually taken an hour before stressful situations. However, always consult a psychiatrist before taking new medications. They'll guide you if Bedranol suits your needs, ensuring proper use.

Female | 29
It is crucial not to overstep the stipulated dosage or mix it with other drugs. If you're up after taking it, your insomniac problems may be due to some other factors that may be holding you back from getting the sleep you need. I would suggest discussing it with your doctor and possibly trying a different medication or adopting some other approaches to get your sleep back to normal.

I am an 18 year old female and have recently been prescribed 25mg of setraline. However i haven't started taking it yet as i didn't feel i got to ask the questions that concerned me about starting this medication and talk about the side effects before committing to this medication.
Female | 18
Sertraline is often a drug to treat feelings of anxiety or depression. Undoubtedly, nausea, headaches, or tiredness can be among the common side effects. But these typically go away by themselves after a short period. If you notice anything that concerns you or if you have any unusual symptoms, speaking with your psychiatrist is a helpful thing to do.

You might be experiencing sleep paralysis. It happens at night when you suddenly wake up and feel unable to move or breathe for a short time. Though it can be scary, it’s usually not serious. It often happens due to stress, lack of sleep, or an irregular sleep schedule. Try to relax before bed, follow a regular sleep routine, and manage stress with techniques like deep breathing or meditation. If it still worries you, you will want to talk to a counselor or psychiatrist for more help.

Female | 22
It would appear that you have the feeling of an uncomfortable symptom like nausea, dizziness, blurred vision, and brain fog. Often this is the result of stress, fatigue, or even your body's reaction to the silent subaudio. The thing is consciously leaving them to have a chance to get relaxation to mind and body is a must. Try to drink water regularly, guarantee that you have enough sleep, and reflect on slow-tempo activities like walking. If your symptoms persist or worsen, I strongly recommend you consult a Psychiatrist for a thorough evaluation and guidance.
