6 months back, I was suffering from anxiety. So consulted a doc offline. He gave few tips: pranayam etc and a medicine "embeta xr 25" OD. He said medicine was there for heart palpitations and don't stop it suddenly. I feel better now, want to close this medicine but how to close?? Any specific dosage change (low of high) or duration? Can't connect to Doc as city changed. Please help.

I have one clarification about my OCD. Situation A : Was taking Clonazepam 0.5mg. obsessions used to come and go. Not having too much anxiety (An obsession used stay for 3 to 4 days max). I would ignore my obsession after 3 days. Situation B : My doctor asked me to stop CLONAZEPAM (After tapering it down in 1 month - 15 days 0.25mg and after 15 days half tablet in 0.25mg). I stopped taking it from past 2 days. Now I’m feeling extremely anxious, depressed and can’t ignore a single thought, the feeling is like end of the world. Question is…. is this withdrawal symptom?? If yes, How long does it stays ?? Will I go back to situation A again ever if I do everything (Psychotherapy) exactly?? Will I be able to ignore the thought as I used to do while taking Clonazepam??

I was in a relationship pretty much for 5-6 years.I knew her since my childhood. Initially we both loved and cared each other .We have had fights and breaks in the past as well for about 2-3 months,and still my persistence worked and she came back into this relationship. She didn't have a job that time but now she has a job and colleagues around her so the distance started increasing and now recently I was going through the important phase of my life i.e a govt exam and I had to be focussed for a month so I couldn't give her much attention and so did she. Now that its been quite long,I tried to have a conversation but she doesn't have time whatsoever and started ignoring me.And she very much clear from her point of view that she doesn't need relationship and doesn't need to marry and it's not her thing,is what she said.I tried everything,told everything about however she wants to live is fine I m ready for all that,but she doesn't want relationship with me,but says can be friends.Helpm

While sleeping I feel vibrations in my head. I am not able to stop them for a few seconds and during those few seconds, it feels like I am not able to move or speak. Sometimes I also feel like someone is completely weighing my body down by putting a lot of force because of which I am not able to move at all. It takes all my strength to speak and move to break through it. Can someone suggest what might be the issue?
