If you get anxious and agitated after drinking alcohol, it is best to stay away from alcohol from now on. But once the symptoms start to be severe like hard breathing, it is important to go to a doctor immediately.

I want to stop antidepressants medicine

Female | 35

Always consult your doctor before stopping antidepressants....Abrupt cessation can cause withdrawal symptoms. Withdrawal symptoms may include DIZZINESS, nausea, and anxiety....Tapering off slowly is recommended. Your doctor can help you develop a tapering schedule....Stopping abruptly can lead to relapse....Relapse may cause a worsening of symptoms....Withdrawal symptoms can also occur with tapering..But tapering can help minimize the severity of symptoms....Regular monitoring by your doctor is important..........

I also do not want to talk anyone which effect my relationships

Female | 24

You sound depressed. Stress can spin up in many ways which include but are not limited to headaches, insomnia, or upset stomach. A potential cause of this health hazard could also be the compulsion of life or extreme pressure at school. Get relaxed by trying different relaxation techniques such as calming, breathing, going around your building, and hanging out with a friend. Unessential as it may seem, these facts with such relevance as eating good food, doing exercise, and sleeping enough are also quite important.

I was prescribed adderall and klonopins throughout most of my 20s. My doctor retired when I was 30 years old and I never got a new doctor, therefore I stopped getting my medications. I am now 40 and truly feel like I need to be back on my meds. What should I do to get prescribed my medications as soon as possible?

Male | 40

To get back on your medications, it's important to visit a psychiatrist or a general physician who can assess your current condition and prescribe the necessary treatment. Explain your medical history and the medications you were on. They will guide you on the best course of action and may restart your previous prescriptions after a thorough evaluation.

It is critical to know the underpinning of your lack of sleep. Sleep loss can be caused by factors such as stress, anxiety, depression, and medical conditions. It is recommended you see a psychiatrist to identify and eliminate the sleeping problem's primary reason.

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.

Slee­p paralysis is a sleep disorder that make­s you feel stuck. Your brain wakes up, but your body doe­sn't. This causes temporary paralysis which can be scary. You might fe­el afraid or confused. See­ing things move or crying are part of this expe­rience. To reduce­ sleep paralysis, have a re­gular sleep routine. Go to be­d at the same time e­ach night. Avoid screens before­ bed. If it keeps happe­ning, talk to a sleep specialist. The­y can guide you on what to do.
