Should I go to a Psychiatrist?
Hello, I'm a high school student from Indonesia and I'm not sure if I'm depressed or just sad. I mean, I think I've been feeling down or worthless ever since I entered high school because of how people here are different. They're smart, talented and confident about it, unlike those in my junior high, and I guess knowing I'm not 'special' anymore makes me feel worthless. Suicidal thoughts come and go, but what really bothers me is the fact that my grades are slipping because I simply can't focus, thinking little activities to do are chores, getting easily overwhelmed, getting frustrated, lost interest in things I used to love doing, one minute im laughing and the next i'm back feeling down, and so on. I would like to see a Psychiatrist but i'm not sure if my problem is serious enough. I don't want to make this such a big deal, I thought if I pull myself together I'll be fine again but I don't think it's helping. So, do you think I should see a Psychiatrist?

Unable to feel happy
I don't remember the last time I felt happy. I don't know why I just don't feel happy. It's not new, this has been going on since a long time...it's been like this since the time I was 13 or 14. I just feel that things aren't going right in my life. I also feel that things have never worked in my favour, or the way I wanted them to, but that's okay.
I've just graduated this year and I've taken a year off to prepare for an exam which requires me to put my heart and soul into the preparation. I really want to study hard, but I just don't feel like studying. I just feel like sleeping all day. I've also put on weight. I don't really like most of the people, so, I don't have friends but I am sure that this is not the reason why I am unhappy. But let me also make it clear that I've never felt like killing myself. In fact, I want to live my life.
Is it depression? I think I have mild depression.

Duration of Pain in pleural tuberculosis
Hi,
I was diagnosed with tuberculosis two months back when I had high fever and extreme pain in the chest. I underwent x ray, diagnostic fluid aspiration and CT. I started on the medication and my fever subsided. My pain also reduced in intensity. However, I still have pain in every breath. Is this normal to have pain even after 2.5 months? I saw the doctor on my last monthly visit and he said it happens when fluid is drying up. But I just want to understand if this much pain is normal at this point during the treatment! Any idea when I can expect it to go?
I am a fitness freak and have always eaten well and healthy and have never smoked in life. In fact I am malnourished in no way. Is tb purely infection based? Any idea how I can prevent such diseases in future despite all that I had been doing already because this problem has been a major speed brake.
Thanks

Sinus and floaters
I have been experiencing floaters for past 2 years. Last month I got a severe attack of sinusitis with eye pain, headache and tooth pain. After having the prescribed tablets the pain subsided. But two days back I had another attack. I had vomitting, severe eye pain above and below the eye and headache. I want to know if floaters and sinusitis is related. I am extremely anxious about the floaters as the internet says it is a warning of retina detachment. Also this time after checking sinus area, doctor says there is a growth. And after having tablets for 7 days only we can scan and check the seriousness of it. I am extremely worried. I am a 35 year old healthy male. I haven't faced major health issues till now and have never got sinusitis before last month, in fact I rarely get a cold. I'm extremely worried. Kindly consult on treating the sinusitis and floater issue?

Blocked nose, Phlegm in throat
For 5 days or more now I've been finding it hard to sleep due to the fact that I can't breathe since my throats is filled with mucus and my nose is too, I have hardly eaten or drank anything bc it's so hard to get anything down my throat. When I do force something down and bare the pain, I puke moments later for example with my water, I puke a yellow water with floating pieces of mucus a bright yellow sometimes a very dark thick yellow. I've tried to cough up the mucus with much pain but it doesn't seem to want to go up. Also, I think I have post nasal drip bc when I blow my nose it doesn't go out of my nostril it goes into my throats meaning more mucus. I also can't stabilise my ears making it very hard to do anything. Just these past two days I've experienced diarrhoea bright yellow and not till last night I discovered blood. I would assume it's my period but I just got off it a week and half back. Please help it's so painful and I'm hungry

Vision correction opinion
Hi Doctors,
I'm a 25yr old male. I have high myopia since I was a child (-10.75 on the right eye and -10.50 on the left eye). Over the years it has actually reduced to the above mentioned numbers. I am looking to get my eyes corrected as I was a more confident and comfortable lifestyle as opposed to always worrying about the spare glasses.
Today I went to the eye doctor and got scans and tests done. I was hoping to get eligibility on the new RELex Smile procedure. The tests showed that I do have sufficient corean thickness but they would only rectify upto -8 which would still leave me with -2.75 and -2.50. They suggested an alternative ICAL procedure and I am satisfied about the fact that it is reversible. The doctor said it's a better way for me as a high myopic patient and also said that the other procedures basically involve removing or burning off corneal tissue from the eye.
I was happy about it and I am looking forward to booking the surgery dates.
Do you have any opinions?

Grief and overthinking
Suffering from depression and overthinking due to breakup feeling cheated since almost a year now. Keep over analysing situations and know everything i am supposed to do but have my CA Final exams in few days so i just cannot enjoy freely since this whole year n now wen m alone studying i am not able to concentrate. Also what i read online and ppl suggest is not possible bec i dont have friends. The ones i have idk i dnt feel connected any more. I behave like i have all the answers to my questions but i dont implement and accept the fact n keep thinking and thinking for hopes and get stressed up. I dont love myself the way i look. Not able to accept reality. Lack of confidence. I have read Law of attraction and got so obsessed with it and astrology n stuff to make it work which gave me more stress. Like i am doing things which i know arent practical and myb superstitions but idk m jus doing it out of hope and get tired of no results. Feel tired and cluess of what i want.

Hirsutism- medication
21, Female, weight 49 Kg. I have excessive hair growth on upper lips and chin. Also I take Thyronorm tablets daily as I was diagnosed with hypothyroid 4 years ago. I am not overweight/ fat; in fact I have a great metabolism. My menstrual cycle used to be irregular for which I started taking medicines 6 months ago as advised by my doctor. I thought hirsutism will be dealt with automatically if my menstrual cycle becomes regular but hair growth hasn't reduced or lightened. I was hoping if you could you prescribe me some medicines to cure hirsutism. When i asked my doctor for meds specific to this problem, she gave me Cystelia M(by Jagonpal). Even after 3-4 months of taking these tablets, I haven't seen a minuscule of change. Frequent threading to get rid of facial hair(upper lips and neck) as they are embarrassing leaves marks and also they grow back within 3-4 days.
Thanks
