Psychological Counselling

I have had on and off depressive and anxiety episode from last 5 year. I also had been on medication in intervals for this reason. Medicines include nexito forte, rexipra forte, prodep 20. Recently again I have been diagnosed with depression and anxiety. I keep getting these problems in episodic manner. The psychiatrist I consulted said you have recurring episodic depression and anxiety (something like this). Currently I am on nexito 10 and lonazep md. He suggest me to get counselling sessions with a psychologist as this is a recurring thing. Medicine will help but for a temporary period of time. I know counselling can be effective but my question is how 'permanent' is the benefits I'll get from counselling. Is it a 'permanent' solution? P.s - I always try to stay fit. I exercise regularly and often do yoga and meditation. I used to smoke but I have quit since a year. I drink occasionally once a month (just a beer or 2) and always try to eat a healthy diet.

Hi From last few months , I am suffering from anxiety mainly related to fear of heart attack and also gastric issues. Last year in April , I did my TMT and later in June I did echo as well and all were fine. Recently I have observed that whenever I come across a emotionally stressful situation, I feel chest tightness or heaviness for a while. Example of such situations- came back from a funeral of a relative, fight with wife or too much stress put in office ( like I have to submit something in next 30 mins). I fear that it's cardiac issue but I can easily do very fast walking for 30 minutes without getting tired. Is it just panic attack or anxiety attack due to emotional situation or do I need to get cardiac check up again ? Please suggest.

I had a breakup on 24.07.2019, after that i really find it very hard to move out from the 1 year lasting relationship, but i managed to move on and i accepted the situation and doing very well since from that day. I never messaged or she never messaged in this 2 years. But suddenly her message came yesterday and i was like should i reply her message or ignore it. But i decided to message her. She asked for a help and i said tell me what help she is needs, but as usual that message was also not read till now which was sent on 19.01.2022. My issue is after her message i am able to focus on my daily routine, thinking more about why she come again and all. I am disturbed very well. From the last 2 days i am not able to sleep properly. Please guide me in this issue, why it is still hitting this issue so hard again. Even after 2 years.

I had mild covid on April 2021 after that my thinking process becomes slow and confusing sometimes, that's brain fog comes and goes time to time, recently I am feeling that I start forget things easily and mood swings too much, early morning waking up, my body energy level is fine, feeling lack of enthusiasm and happy feelings. Low  concentration and distortion too,sometime feeling unbalanced body and palpitation too.

I am a night person. My usual sleep time is 2-3a.m., and i wake up at 11. These days i am finding it difficult to sleep. I am awake till 6-7 a.m. thus spoiling my schedule. I try to tire myself out with 11-7 job shift and 1 hour Dance class and some 2 hours study afterwards. Even then i feel hyperactive and full of energy. These leads me to be lazy during my work hours. I don't sleep during the day time. I have even tried mandala art to soothe myself. What can i do to fix this ?? Please suggest.
