Psychological Counselling

I am a 26-year-old male. I have been experiencing frequent panic attacks. During these episodes, my blood pressure suddenly rises to a very high level, and I feel intense anxiety. I also have mucus/phlegm in my chest, which makes it difficult to breathe and often increases my panic. Sometimes I feel chest tightness and discomfort while breathing. Because of these symptoms, I am worried whether this is only due to anxiety and panic attacks or if there could also be a lung, heart, or blood pressure problem. Please advise what tests I should get done and which specialist I should consult. I would also like to know the best treatment to control these panic attacks and improve my breathing.

This is a regular occurrence that I face i take etizolam before sleep since I get slight anxiety its dr prescribed. Even in afternoon naps I have frequent nightmares I dont have nice dreams there is always a fear in my dreams. Specially strairs- running - chase- missing an important event- seeing people who i dont talk to. Basically my mind is awake and wants to wake up from a bad dream but my body refuses its weird bcz the nightmare make me feel uncomfortable like am screaming but no one can hear me I know that If I can go to the other room my mom is there but my body refuses to wake up. Even in my dream am aware that my mom is in the next room both in dream and reality I have awareness. I've been trying Lucid dreaming and in a few instance I have altered the dream saved myself from dying (somethingi recurring in my nightmares) my dreams get really weird at time am scared to sleep mostly now that I have trouble pulling myself out of the state.

Hello , doctors . I have a simple question many people face issues to get regular follow up check ups like long waiting hours,  travel costs, Fooding & lodging expenses . So , can doctors  take follow up digitally ? And do you believe patients have to face difficulties in getting regular follow ups? Will you use any software which will help you to get follow ups online and will generate digital prescriptions and send reminders to the patients  to WhatsApp and patients can upload their medical files and photos . It will increase your patients retention also and will increase the income . So please tell me if anyone will provide this type of software will you use it ?

Need some coping strategies to deal with health anxiety please. It's present almost everyday . Just a weird body sensation in the morning triggers it, like I have tinnitus from last 10 years . Sometimes it gets too loud. Got checked from ent...all clear. Get muscle aches after workout, which again puts my mind at doubt that it is something worse.

Hello , I'm in a relationship with a guy earlier it appears all fine.Now we are planning to get married and I'm not settled in my career.He said that he loves me but he is not fine with the fact that I'm not non working as it will hurt his prestige among his friends that their wives are working and his wife doesn't.Is it sign of healthy relationship because I'm completely in chaos? Should I continue with me or not because I have fear that In future if we were together he will always compare me with his friends wives and it will make me feel more inferior.

I feel very panicked even in a small situation and overthinking everything which sometimes causes emotional exhaustion and irritation. I am a research scholar which means stress comes automatically but most of the time it causes a headache, dizziness. Sometimes I feel crunches in my stomach and heaviness in my heart which causes breathing problems.

Hello everyone! Can someone please help me? I am very  (distressed). I am overthinking a lot, my mind is under stress and filled with too many thoughts, tension, and worry. I am a student, currently studying, and my mother is struggling with serious health conditions—heart failure, lung issues, as well as diabetes and high blood pressure. The main problem is that I am scared about my future and feeling emotionally burned out and very confused. Some time ago, I took treatment for my mental health offline, but although money was spent, I did not get any results. Now I don’t understand what to do. Most of my father’s earnings are currently being spent on my mother’s treatment. I don’t understand how to focus on my career in this situation. Can someone please help my mind just avoid to take actions and procrastinate a lot please help me for my mother 😢😢🥺🥺

I was in a toxic relationship with a man my age during my UG. He always made me feel dumb and stupid. Being constantly exposed to such negativity destroyed my self-esteem and confidence. I took a gap year to focus on myself after I broke up with him and I didn't know what to pursue further. My UG cgpa is 7.01, low, as I didn't focus on studies because of mental health issues. I have become 10× better now. I wrote competitive exams like Gate, CUET-PG etc., and qualified in 3/5 exams. I got into one of the TIFRs (Tata Institute of Fundamental Research) for Integrated M.Sc-PhD program. I had not prepared for the exam neither did I for the interview. So I think I'm pretty smart, for I have cleared these with very little preparation, considering how good the institute is. But I still cannot believe that I got selected. I've believed that I'm not smart/capable enough so much that I still think that it's a fluke and I've got in purely by luck(Not true ofc). What do I do?

I am having sleep issues, sleeping at odd hours. There is no  fixed time. I feel very little energy to do the normal things. Fatigue, gastric issues and mood swings. Lost interest in many things. Feels like just surviving the day
