School behaviour
Hello doctor,
This is with regards to my son. He's 2 and has started play school recently.
He has been a very outgoing kid and whenever we take him out has been mingling with people around. In school however, I do hear from his teachers that he sits in a corner and plays with his toys when the other kids play amongst themselves.
While I do understand he's just 2 and don't like to put pressure on him, things fall in place in the long run, I do want to know is it a matter of concern? It's not that he doesn't like going to school in fact he likes to be there, but off late he's begun to cry a bit missing my wife, his mom.
Not sure if I am thinking too much.
Please help, a little lost on this one.

Asking for suggestion.
My father, whose details i have already mentioned, has been diagnosed with poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma a couple of days ago. The local doctors suggest surgery as the tumour has already blocked a substantial portion of the colon, and is rapidly increasing. But since Ranchi, our city, doesn't have a hospital where the surgery can be done, we need suggestions as to which is the best hospital in India where the surgery can be done with the lowest possible risk. Also considering the fact that my father is 82 years old and also has a cardiac stent which was installed in 2011. Also, he has had a history of respiratory trouble. It would be preferable for the hospital to be in Kolkata, for the ease of lodging and finances are not a big trouble.
Therefore, i request your help on the matter for our course of action.

Mental Mystery
There is this friend of mine, who recently returned from the US and is disturbed on a serious level. He does not talk to anybody. Given the fact that he is an introvert, he used to have minimum conversation with people before. But now, he has quit talking to people and just doesn't want to have anybody with him. I have also sometimes found him talk to himself. Or this "imaginary" self.. He is not ready to share anything; just keeps smiling if he is asked a question. It's getting really hard to break him.. He has been smoking a lot and drinking too. The only reason he wants to hang out with us is cuz he thinks he can stay around us and drink or smoke. Since his parents started questioning about his recent habits/ drug abuse, he stopped caring and he has started smoking and drinking at home in front of his parents itself. We as friends are not able to understand what is going on with him and are worried. Please help.

I'm mentally breaking down every day.
I'm a 19 year old male studying Dentistry. Everything in my life seems to be falling apart when in fact I can gain control of it easily. I get severe anxiety attacks almost every day for the silliest reasons.
Every night, I force myself into crying or grief even though noting significantly bad has happened since a long time. I take part in social outings but never genuinely feel connected or happy with it.
I've always been an above average student, but since months now, I have become a below average and am literally surviving on my reputation. I've financially lost control too.
Physically, I get sudden hunger urges on one day, and on the other. There's always a heavy chest and I've started sleeping more than usual. It's been almost 4 months now.

Overthinking
I am engineering student. Due to over thinking I can't focus on my studies. I delaying my studies which has already resulted me and in less marks in internals. I always think to do something and study but can't. Fact is due to lack of concentration I am not interested in doing anything. I am just trying to isolate myself from others. I am not understanding what's happening to me. I need some suggestions as early as possible so that I can take any step to cure myself. I have lot of plan for my future as I belong to middle class family. I don't think I can approach my goals if it continues like this.

Time of conceiving
I have doubts regarding the paternity of my unborn child. First day of my mentstrual period was 09.09.16. I then had unprotected sex with guy1 on 15.09.16 and 16.09.16. Then on 19.09.16 i had PROTECTED sex (condoms) with guy2 and i am pretty certain his cum never got out of the condom because i would have remembered if that happened. I also remember seeing some fertile mucus on the 15th which was the day i had unprotected sex with guy1. My due date going by the gestational age of the baby is 08 06.17. I am quite sure guy1 is the father however my mind is still playing tricks with me as to the unlikely possibility that it could in fact be guy2 that is the father??

TRANSFER DISPHEGIA
My mother, age 67, is suffering from Transfer Dysphagia since last 6 months. I consulted a doctor (DM Gastroenterology) who suggested Endoscopy, which was normal. He referred us to a Neurologist, who conducted tests like brain MRI, Repeat Nerve Stimulation, ACHR and ANA, which were all normal
The Gastroenterologist then suggested us to get Manometry done. The results of Manometry were also normal. He finally told us that his role is over and there is no gastro issue as all the tests are normal. There is no dipression or stress issues with my mother
But the fact is the problem is still as it is. please suggest

Depression
Since 3-4 months i am feeling very depressed. Don't feel like working inspite of the fact that i am among those few who are lucky to make their passion their profession. Since a month, the situation has more deteriorated. I haven't went to office in last 20 days. No proper food i take. Sometimes feel like sleeping for hours and hours and at the same time don't feel sleepy. Have lot of personal life issues about which i keep on thinking. I was known for my super positivity and activeness but today i am so negative in each case.
It is for the first time i am seeking consultation in this regard and so i don't know how it flows, from where to start and where to end, what to talk and what to not. Sometimes i even feel suicidal but at the same time thought crosses my mind that i am not so weak and coward person.
I feel like i am fighting with myself.
