Hi, This is about my father who is 51 years old. He has a habit of taking sleeping pills for the last 10 years. Lately, for the last two to three years we have had weird experiences with him every once in a while. The last time it happened, he woke up in the middle of his sleep came to me and asked for food. He started eating and talking to me...and while he was talking I noticed that he was talking endlessly without a pause and that too about random unrelated topics and he would not stop for even a second and then he asked to me to go out and bring some papers from the car I said it's too late we can do that tomorrow but he started insisting and he even came along to bring those papers and then we brought those papers then talked about it for a while and then he started talking again about random stuff and then he started behaving like a drunk man and became out of our controls, however he does not consume any alcohol. We somehow made him to sleep by fulfilling his randome demands.

Now I have no own source of income and just staying on some savings and have no financial support from husband. I feel frustrated wihh my current situation that I vent out my anger on my son. My anger goes so high that i hit him hard. I feel guilty later but cannot control my anger in fit of rage. I fear about the well being of my son who is just 3 yrs old. Help me to control anger so that financial, career and personal stress doesn't fall on him. I am furious when he behaves notorious whereas in normal mode I do fulfill all his wishes. Please help.

I am 31 year old woman from Jharkhand. I have a younger sister who is 27 now and mom at home. My dad passed away when I was 20 yr old. Cut short. I am in a relationship with a tamil guy for almost 6 years. Everyone including family and relatives are against this relationship. My mom and sister have agreed to it though. Once in a while I still get threats and calls that I will be socially boycotted in future by my relatives. I had been ignoring all of these till this time. In laws are super cool and quite down to earth people. However I feel a sense of fear always inside me if I am doing the right thing. This has been going for a long time. the very thing that worries me is- will my sister get a good alliance since my mom means that after all this drama our family has already lost its respect in the society and nothings good gonna happen to her. I have started to feel guilty and selfish for quite sometime now and I don't feel confident in my relationship or my workplace anymore. thanks

Hi All, Recently I have been hearing lot about Emotional intelligence quotient (EQ) which is essentially for anyone to manage your own and other emotions and manage them well and went through lot of videos of same, however in reality it looks impossible to apply the knowledge and manage emotions, at times feel like IQ which cannot be changed in most of the times I am presuming that even EQ is also something should get by born largely and will have little scope to improve. I'm not fully confident that I will be able to attain EQ though I'm completely aware of the things but in practicality becoming unconscious and failing to apply and outbursts happening at times, I'm in a kind of helpless situation and blaming myself for this pity situation and situations are completely becoming out of control. Pls help me any suggestions and also howbwe can practice to improve EQ very smoothly and to reach a stage of well managing emotions and to lead a happy and successful life. Thanks!

I have been diagnosed with OCD and Anxiety disorder 7 years ago. I took fluvoxamine 200 mg and clonazepam 0.25 mg(SOS) for 4 years and left, then the problem relapsed and since last year october i am on fluvoxamine 200 mg and clonazepam 0.25 for 15 days in Last October then SOS since then. I need a dose of clonazepam once a week because of panic attacks. My compulsive actions are still there and i can't get over them. I have started feeling derealized or detached from world not emotionally but it feels i m a robot and i am just doing things but nothing feels alive. I feel all this is unreal and i start Having a panic Attack and think that i m about to die and get breathless and sweat a lot. I take clonazepam then. But since 2-3 days i see my hands have tremors sometimes. Not often. My mri and vit b12, vit d and thyroid are normal in recent tests. Is it because of medicine or anxiety? It happens more when i am tired of workout.
