can i take propranolol before parachuting
Male | 24
If you take propranolol before skydiving, that might not be safe. Before such a high-energy activity the drug may slow down your pulse and lower blood pressure, which is risky. During acute stress situations such as this one it is necessary for the heart to beat fast so as to supply enough oxygen into the muscles thus enabling them carry out their functions effectively.

The cause of the whole thing can be physical illnesses like depression, thyroid, or dysbiosis. It will be the best thing to do is to talk to your parents, family, or any other adults that you trust so they can later take you to a psychiatrist. It's the first thing to do since, by doing so, you can get the right diagnosis, hence, treated, and hence feel better and go back to your normal self again.

Male | 26
You may have a gag reflex. This happens when your body is more sensitive to certain things you see, smell, or taste. It isn’t usually serious but it can be unpleasant. Try to steer clear of anything that makes you feel like this. If it won’t go away and bothers you, too, it might help to speak with a doctor about how to handle it.

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 am a 27 year old male struggling with severe everyday anxiety for 2 years. My anxiety causes me to have sleepless nights and sometimes it feels like I'm Going to lose my mind or lose control of my entire body.
Male | 27
High levels of anxiety can interfere with your sleep and make things seem very scary. It's normal to have racing thoughts, restlessness, and physical symptoms such as sweating or shaking. This comes from a mix of genetics, brain chemistry, and the things you've been through. Speaking with a psychitrist is the best way to manage anxiety through therapy or medication.

I am 31 year old living alone abroad. I am working here and going through a phase of getting married. I have had previous short term relationships. My fiance is living in India and will be moving with me after marriage. The biggest struggle these days is getting flashbacks of the good days from previous relationships and not liking many things of my Fiance. Since the recent past, I'm having multiple panic attacks and want to cry (somehow not able to cry). Also, I am getting suicidal thoughts which was never the case before. Sometimes I also imagine completely disappearing and start a life somewhere with new Identity and losing all the contacts with family and friends.

Male | 23
Addressing issues related to neurotransmitter levels requires consultation with a psychiatrist or neurologist. Discontinuing medications such as risperidone and haloperidol can lead to a drop in serotonin and dopamine levels. Additionally, the use of supplements like tryptophan, tyrosine, 5-HTP, and mucuna pruriens may also affect neurotransmitter levels. It's essential to consult a specialist for proper diagnosis and treatment of any potential imbalances beforehand.
