Mental Health

I am a 21 year old guy. 7 months ago, I got a severe burnout. Since then, I have been on psychiatrist treatment. Initially, I got diagnosis as a depression and later a doctor labelled me having soft bipolar. However, I am not depressed and neither stressed nor anxious. I have suffered from depression in the past but not now. My primary symptoms are lacking physical energy, and reduction of cognitive ability. My physical energy has increased for over 40-45% in the last 7 months. I don't know is it due to rest or medicine. However, my cognitive ability still hasn't returned at its full strength. I am on fluoxitine and Bupropion. I can't read heavy texts and feel emotionally dull. I am psychologically fine (no negative thinking) but something is wrong with my nervous system. I still haven't found any good psychiatrist till now who can understand my problem and provide suitable treatment. Does anybody has expertise in such cases?

Respected Sir/Madam, I would like to request a comprehensive psychological evaluation for my personal records. I wish to complete this evaluation voluntarily, as it will help me better understand myself for my future career and personal life, including employment and marriage. Despite facing significant personal pressure, I have chosen to prioritize my peace of mind and overall well-being. After the evaluation is completed, I kindly request a copy of the evaluation report for my personal records. As I have a medical technology background, I would like to include this assessment, where appropriate, as part of my professional documentation and resume. Thank you for your time and consideration. Yours sincerely, Komire Sridhar

Sometimes she even talk to herself like her inner one is listening her. When she comes to normal state she forgot all these things also she feels very much tired when she comes in normal state.

Does mindfulness meditation really help reduce acting on urges and impulsive behavior? Is this supported by strong scientific evidence, or is it mainly based on spiritual beliefs or weak evidence? Is it just spiritual benefits or strong scientific evidence

Hi doctors, My psychiatrist has recommended me clonidine 150 mcg IR at night for impulsivity and sleep issues. I haven’t started it yet because I’m a bit worried about blood pressure reduction. My current BP is around 120/80, age 30, male. I understand it’s not possible to give an exact prediction, but can anyone give an approximate idea of how much BP might drop at this dose, especially at night and next morning? Thanks in advance.

Hello Doctor, I need your opinion regarding my persistent sleep problems and whether I need a sleep study. My symptoms started in 2024 with anxiety, disturbed sleep, occasional light-headedness, and fluctuating blood pressure. At that time, I was diagnosed with Grade 1 NAFLD and borderline cholesterol. A private psychiatrist prescribed multiple medications, after which my liver enzymes increased about threefold and my fatty liver progressed to Grade 2. I then consulted Hepatology at PGIMER Chandigarh. The hepatologist referred me to Psychiatry, where all medications except Xepar 25 were stopped. I was started on Vitamin E and advised lifestyle modification. My latest reports (March 2026) show SGPT 98 U/L and SGOT 46 U/L. I am also taking Ezetimibe 10 mg for triglycerides (>500 mg/dL). Despite treatment, I still wake up 2–3 times every night, have vivid dreams, feel unrefreshed, remain tired throughout the day, and occasionally feel mildly unsteady. Could this be anxiety or what?
