Mental Health

Can anxiety be genetic? Like I get panic for no reason. I used to be so mentally strong but lately I think I've become vulnerable and I get anxious sometimes for no reason. I'm on medication but still sometimes it happens for no reason.

I have been facing severe health anxiety for more than a year. Every disease scares me. I feel weird symptoms.

I've not slept for more than 2hrs/night in more than a month. I wake up exhausted (obviously), unable to focus on work, or exercise, etc. I've always had insomnia, since childhood. But this time it's a long spell, I'm desperate. Tried almost everything (yoga, meditation, melatonin, homeopathy, mushrooms) apart from heavy duty sleep medication. Who should I see regarding my condition? Any tips please? Happy to consult too.

My grandmother is 84 years old she is mentally unstable. Will I get a medical certificate that she is mentally fit to do any legal documentation ? Are there any test needed to prove the mental fitness?

I stopped lexapro 6 days ago and had very very strange dreams tonight. It's extremely strong themed and repeated linked dreams. I'm not anxious or worried. I also experience complete joy and happiness before bedtime today. I started doing Sudarshan kriya yoga - breathing exercises 2 weeks ago and I'm basically doing well with no anxiety symptoms. So I went cold turkey with my SSRI (taking since 2016). Is this dreams something common during withdrawal? If I want to come out of SSRI, should I accept that the dreams are not something harmful and won't make me maniac?

After recovering from lithium toxicity few days ago, I've started experiencing brief, intense spikes of vibration-like pain on the right side of my head. These pains are quick but very different from usual headaches. Could this be related to the lithium toxicity, or is there another cause I should explore? What steps should I take next?

Doctor ! I am suffering from OCD & my doctor has prescribed me SERTA 100 MG 1.0.1. , PEXEP CR 25 MG 0.0.1. & RESPERIDONE 1 MG (MD) at 0.0.1. But the problem is that the RESPERIDONE is rarely available in strength of 1 MG. So my question is that can I take .5 mg + .5mg in place of while 1 MG at night. (0.0.1)
