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

31. Male. 5'6". 77 kg. Paliperidone. I am suffering from nervous shutdown symptoms since 2015. I also started suffering from symptoms like laughing alone or muttering past conversation I had on social media out loud since 2020. My parents insist me on going to psychiatrist for this. One time I misunderstood prescription and took 10 SOS eitizolam pills as I thought they would cure me out of shutdown but they were for weak hearted feeling that I was having. So after overdose I was hospitalized and during my extended stay at hospital I became aggressive so combined with my shutdown and aggression I was diagnosed with schizophrenia and put on paliperidone 150 mg. But paliperidone is making my symptoms worse. I now have ADHD like symptoms due to high dopamine blockade and hence cannot read( jump t conclusions and skip stuff which I feel is unimportant). Doctors says will take you off paliperidone after I get a job and become functional again. Is doctor correct in keeping me on paliperidone?

Always under stress anxiety about future ..when I was studying degree I used to think quitting degree and joining father business makes me more successful rather than completing degree ..so I dropped studies ..now after dropping I am under guilt that I left studies ..I have dropped studies 20 years ago ..still I can't forget that guilt ...daily morning when I wake up the thing that first comes in my mind is that I dropped studies .. since then I find no interest in any thing..I don't have a fixed mindset ...always under tremendous stress regarding life ...don't stick to one idea..always change my mind...not able to take serious steps regarding life..feel lost ..I stay away from friends..,because of guilt of study dropout...no enthusiasm in life...life is feeling heavy...always head is filled with thoughts and heavy.

I started having this problem in 2021 after the death of my grandfather. After a while, I started feeling like I was getting sick.Even while sitting in class, I used to think the whole day felt unwell and  dizzy, although till date I had never fallen due to dizziness.I got very nervous and would keep thinking  something  throughout the day.Then I thought I was very sick and wouldn't survive long.After that I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism.This problem of mine got better for some time but the overthinking never reduced.I recently had gallbladder removal surgery.A few days later, a girl in my class died.She  died due to jaundice and hepatitis.After that I started overthinking more and thought I too had been diagnosed with fatty liver and that I might end up like her .I felt these things for at least 5 to 6 days.Since then, whatever  symptoms I have had, I feel that my health is not good Whatever happens, my anxiety increases.

I do not know how to describe my situation but I have been anxious a lot lately, getting offended on small things, past incidents are coming to my mind and then I am getting angry about those things. I often notice myself day dreaming imagining a perfect world. I am facing lower confidence levels and procrastinating my priorities a lot, I am worried a lot, overthinking all the time, appears to me that my mind is never at rest. I scroll phone a lot and cannot find motivation to complete my tasks. I feel exhausted. My childhood was not very nice and those incidents still scares me and I am going on defensive mode. I need advice to cope up with my situation.
