Mental Health

I've been dealing with toxic environment around me since I was like — 5. Be it school, coaching or even at times home. Not that my parents don't love me, but the opinion clashes and all. I can feel it in me that have a lot of potential but Idk how to make the most out of it. I feel scared, of everything. I feel hopeless and even suicidal at times but the pain that could come up scares me again. I keep finding ways to distract myself from the things that matter like reels or anything but I won't enjoy that too completely. Idk what to do.

My husband is 37 years old. He stops drinking alcohol for about 2–3 weeks, but then starts again and drinks heavily day and night for 1–2 weeks. He genuinely tries to quit, but relapses repeatedly. During drinking periods, he has sleep disturbances, high blood pressure, uses abusive language, and makes inappropriate calls to relatives and friends. He was previously given medication for alcohol withdrawal/craving, which helped for about a month, but the habit returned after stopping the medicine. I am currently 5 months pregnant and living with him. I would like to know: Which specialist should we consult? Are there medicines that can help prevent relapse long-term? Does he need counseling or de-addiction treatment? What is the best treatment approach for this pattern of alcohol use? Thank you.

Im going through Anxiety disorder for last 1 year . Initially I was given Paraxitine 10mg extended release for 15days by neurologist at night but resulted in partial insomnia . I was asked to  taper off and try psychiatrist , adviced CBT only. Then after 10 months I'm given Desvenlafaxine 50 mg extended release at night , for last 5 days I will wake exactly 4.45 - 5 hours after taking the tablet ( i tried taking an hour early and tried , I will wake up an hour early mid sleep) . I'm troubled with sleep and fatigued through the day . Usual side effects I'm already informed exists ( constipation , dry mouth , slight dizziness ) . Is it worth switching the dosage timing to morning .

My nervous system never feels calm. I have a habit of doing everything on time, and if it doesn’t happen, I feel like something bad will happen. I get irritated easily, I’m always in a rush, and I can’t stay calm.”

Hey ! It is related to my mother , she is 57 as of now. Diagnosed with Sugar ( type 2) , blood pressure ( anxiety related as suggested by a cardiologist), Vertigo ( sometime ago but now she is doing good with it. Hyperthyroidism ( also diagnosed by the same cardiologist as he is general physician too) For the last 3 years , she has had excessive religious OCD which is now impacting her daily life. She only talks about God and knowing all this she can't stop thinking about which further let her feel restless and anxiety driven by this. She is not on any medication related to this and no prior appointment to any psychiatrist. I am in a dilemma what to do as of now , as it is hard seeing her like this. Further, she washes her more often now, the contamination issue is there, also she talks in a very depressing tone thinking she would never be getting out of this. Suggest
