Can psychosocial issues cause this
29. Male. 77 kg. 5'6". Lactovegetarian. Currently on paliperidone 150 mg monthly depot for schizophrenia and 20 mg escitalopram for OCD.
I was pretty normal guy up until 2015. Just had habit of masturbation. I discounted my behavior as a response to and to lower stress of college.
I was attracted to our maid at that point. I sexually abused that maids daughter. I felt horrified when that girl told my elder brother about this. I spent one complete evening in shock. After that I planned on marrying that maid to shield myself from consequences. But that plan and things collapsed in April 2016 when saw trailer of a marathi film which touches on intercaste issues. After 5 days I felt physically empty headed and spoke very little and very little expressions. Later I left work and started staying at home glued to computer.
I now suffer from anhdepression like symptoms that responds to expectation, belief, reassurance, hope, new environment, placebo for example general doctor or self-medicin

Are both connected morning erection adhd
Title: No morning erection for 3 years + ADHD meds not working — related?
Post:
I have not had morning erections for the last 3 years
Around 3 years back, I had a UTI
After that period, I was diagnosed with ADHD
Since then, I have tried methylphenidate (different brands and dosages)
I never felt significant improvement from the medication
My concern:
Is lack of morning erection linked to hormonal or neurological issues?
Could this be the reason why ADHD medication is not working properly?
Looking for guidance on:
What tests should I consider (hormones, etc.)
Whether both issues could be connected
What type of specialist I should consult
Thank you.

Suffering from depression
I am a mbbs doc having low mood, lost all interest in activities and life itself after getting diagnosed with cervical and lumbar disc bulge. I am feeling worthless and have anhedonia too. I can't eat anything as I have no appetite and only eat two times a day. I hate my job because i can't indulge myself in it. Everyday feels so exhausting and I feel like I have lost my purpose. Is there any hope left and is it possible to regain my interest as I have only a few months left for the next neet pg?

Does escitalopram have any side effects
I would like to know if escitalopram regular use has any side effects like weight gain or worsened mood problems, and if taking it even just once would mean I have to start taking it regularly. I took one 3 days ago and that day I felt good, but next day onwards I felt lower than usual (haven't taken it since that one time).
I have a borderline mood disorder (therapist diagnosed) and a suspected General Anxiety Disorder (therapist suspected). I wanted to keep clonazepam on me in case of panic attacks but a psychiatrist suggested trying escitalopram to see if it makes me feel better. Since I only tried it once, I am not certain of its effects but I'd like to know these things before I start taking it on a daily basis. Kindly let me know.
Thank you.

Big Problem
Hello Doctor,
I have been prescribed Inderal 20 mg (propranolol) for anxiety-related fast heart rate in social situations. I mainly experience increased heart rate without other symptoms.
I have an event (wedding) coming up, and I wanted to ask:
- Can I take one dose before the event and, if needed, take another dose later the same day after the effect wears off?
- What should be the safe time gap between two doses?
- What is the maximum safe dose I can take in a day for this purpose?
Thank you.
