First time Anxiety Ocd like in teen boy
If a 13 yo who had acute anxiety episode with distressing thoughts like what if some negative creature existed, what if someone did harm to me, for 4 days, first time in life, taken to psychiatrist on 5th day, who counselled and gave etilaam 0.25 for 7 days and sos and ssri flunil 10 for 45 days... he has taken 30 days of ssri till date in morning 10am. His anxiety went off immediately after a day of etilaam although he had drowsiness and slightly low bp from it. He is taking ssri now but he has been having disturbed sleep and daytime yawning and light fatigue especially in evening... he's unable to focus and study for more than 8 to 10 minutes in a stretch, he starts yawning and takes break. So focus seems to have reduced... also slightly hyperactive behavior at times. He used to study till late night before but now seems fatigue and focus less but he is enjoying watching shows, searching online different things etc. Is this long term ssri unnecessary for him as he has no anxiety now
I am seeking guidance my mental health
Hello Doctor, . I have severe anxiety with frequent panic attacks. I also have significant mood swings and several other symptoms that make me concerned about bipolar disorder, not just mood swings alone. I have never been formally diagnosed, but I would like to be properly evaluated for bipolar disorder or any other psychiatric condition. I have also experienced obsessive thoughts/behaviors and have had suicidal thoughts in the past. Whenever I cry intensely, become very anxious, or get angry, I sometimes become unconscious for about 3-5 minutes. During these episodes I can hear everything happening around me but cannot open my eyes or move my body. I breathe normally. I also have persistent diplopia (double vision). I underwent eye surgery, but it did not improve. My ophthalmologist told me the cause is likely neurological rather than an eye problem. Recently, I accidentally overdosed on 200 mg amitriptyline.
