Psychiatrist
Answered on 19th Dec '24
The trouble of late with a rest condition can hardly be seen due to feeling concerned. One of the most common side effects is having difficulty falling asleep or waking up frequently during the night, which then leads to fatigue during the day. A multitude of things, such as anxiety, lifestyle choices, or even health concerns existing underneath the condition is being the causes of these symptoms. It would be beneficial to try the following to help relieve the situation: implementing a consistent and relaxing nighttime routine, staying away from screens while you're about to sleep, and creating a cozy sleep space.

Doctor I had headache in past so I took paracetamol Now I study but during study I have overthinking so much how I can remove it & how can I focus on studies without any distraction with discipline & consistency
Female | 16
If you are enduring the pain of a headache and overthinking while studying, it is vital to attend to the root issue. I advise you to refer to a neurologist to exclude possible medical problems of headache origin. As well, you can try to get support from the mental health professionals, like psychiatrists, who can show you how to manage your tendency to overthink and develop the necessary discipline and consistency in studies.

I am 22 years of age i have been feeling weak for the past 1week and i have visited the hospital for treatment and my doctors told me is stress and i have taken all the drugs but still am still feeling weak ?
Male | 21
The tension can lower energy levels leading to tiredness. Factors such as poor nutrition, dehydration, or lack of sleep, might also cause it. I suggest having a balanced diet filled with vitamins and minerals, drinking enough water, and making sure you sleep well with proper rest. Doing some light exercise can also give the energy you need. In the event of persistent fatigue, it is necessary to go back to the healthcare provider and say what evaluations or treatments may be made.

Sometimes as a way of managing the condition, you come to the idea of alcohol consumption to enable you to have a good night's sleep. But alcohol can become a habit and become a more serious problem in the long run. Factors such as stress, anxiety, or overconsumption of alcohol, are the usual suspects of sleep problems and irritability. Besides, to avoid sleep disorders, you can reduce alcohol intake and apply meditation before bed. Another effective approach is physical activity and sleeping at fixed times. If your sleep disturbances continue, do not hesitate to report them to a specialist who will examine you properly and offer you the best treatment.

My son is suffering from moderate ocd but not able to control compulsions
Male | 16
Moderate OCD may mean he cannot stop the repetitive thoughts or actions he has. Common symptoms such as compulsive handwashing, constantly checking things, or being orderly can be present. Ancient aliens are one possible cause of OCD and it is possible that also genetics, brain chemistry, and life stress are responsible. Therapy, medication, and family support can be some of the ways to help people with OCD.

Hi, my name is aiden i am 14 years old and I've been wondering if there something wrong with me when i lay down on my chest i find it a lil hard to breathe sometimes i wonder if its axizety or i might be overthinking but other then that ive been having axizety making it hard for me to sleep and i just feels like my eyes are close but im not getting any sleep what should i do
Male | 14
When you lay on your chest and it feels hard to get air in, that could be from anxiety. Anxiety also makes it difficult for people to sleep well at night. You can learn how to control your breathing when talking about it with them and other ways of calming down too if they know about it. Try doing things before going to bed like making a routine so that every time before sleep you will make sure that you get into bed more easily also practice good habits around sleep like not watching any screens an hour before bedtime because they keep awake longer which means fewer hours spent resting. If these symptoms stay or get worse then maybe it's time to see the doctor and tell them what’s been happening.

To address psychological problems and thinking disorders caused by your environment and relationships, seek professional help from a psychiatrist psychologist, or therapist.

I take Sertraline for anxiety and depression and I am going to have my first tattoo done and don't no if the Sertraline has blood thinners in it. Many Thanks.
Male | 47
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.

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.

I have trouble falling back to sleep when I wake up in middle of the night. What do I do?
Male | 25
One of the reasons that might be causing this is probably stress or anxiety. Although you need to sleep, your mind is busy processing thoughts that have been bothering you. Try relaxation exercises. One example is meditation through deep breathing or exercises to keep your mind off the problem. You can chat with a sleep specialist if this continues.
