Why can't I sleep at night despite medication?

I am a 21-year-old female that been having trouble for five months can’t fall asleep at night time but sleep throughout today. I try to take trazodone but don’t work for me and Seroquel I can’t take anymore due to a stroke back in August I also tried melatonin, but don’t work.

It sounds like you're experiencing a type of insomnia, which can affect your overall well-being. Factors like stress, lifestyle, or underlying health issues might contribute to difficulty sleeping at night while feeling sleepy during the day. Since you’ve tried several medications without success, it is important to explore other options. Consider establishing a calming bedtime routine, limiting screen time before sleep, and practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation. Please consult a psychiatrist for personalized advice and alternative treatments.

I am feeling very isolated and alone today. I am feeling that the worl has kicked me out.

Female | 13

These feelings may have various origins, such as stress, experiencing life changes, or lack of social interaction. It's necessary to do the things you like, connect to other people, and try out different hobbies to distinguish them. Physical exercise and the right daily plan can also brighten your day. If these feelings remain, I seriously suggest that you talk to a healthcare professional who can give you their enduring love and encouragement.

So, i took a 30mg codeine tablet. Then 5 minutes later i forgot i had taken it. So took another. So iv taken 60mg in 1sitting. Will i be ok. Im 33 weigh about 10st4. Relatively mind strong. I was just curios

Male | 34

If you take 60mg of codeine all at once, it is more likely to cause some side effects. One of the side effects is that you may become very sleepy, feel dizzy, or have problems with breathing. Whenever a medicine reaction like the one described here happens, it is best to remain calm and save your life without increasing the doses further. In addition, it is recommended to stay hydrated, sit down, and be observant of the body's feelings for possible encounters.

I’ve been put on 4mg diazepam. Is that okay with 10mg ramipril. I have panic disorder and worry!

Female | 42

You're taking 4mg of diaze­pam, and 10mg of ramipril for panic disorder. These me­dicines interact. Diazepam boosts ramipril's e­ffect, causing low blood pressure, and dizzine­ss. They make you drowsier, dizzie­r, lightheaded. If expe­riencing these symptoms, consult your he­althcare provider about adjusting medications.

Female | 22

Your fear of being judged, rejected, and overthinking can be symptoms of anxiety. The head injury that you had in your adolescent period may also be linked to your headaches and memory issues now. Of course, speaking with a mental health professional is the best way to get help, but you also might want to see a neurologist for your head injury.

Daxid 50 mg could influence sexual hormones in certain individuals. They may experience symptoms such as changes in libido or trouble getting aroused. This could be because some drugs interfere with the body’s hormone levels. If you notice these changes, discuss them with your doctor. They can find a remedy for this issue or change your medication if necessary. Pay attention to how you feel and if anything seems wrong, don’t hesitate to ask for assistance.

These issues can arise from various sources, including stress, unresolved emotions, or life changes. Symptoms might involve irritability, difficulty in relationships, or a decrease in sexual desire. Addressing these concerns begins with self-reflection and open communication with trusted individuals. Engaging in relaxation techniques, physical activity, or counseling can also be beneficial. It's important to seek support from a healthcare professional who can provide tailored advice.

It is possible that sweating contributes to the discomfort, and any medications may interact with each other. The adverted drug might also negatively affect the efficiency of other medications that you are taking. It is vital to communicate with a doctor. They will give advice or suggest something else if necessary to manage your situation.

Female | 16

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.
