I've been having heart palpitations since December 2025, my pulse rate used to be almost above 110 when checked. My doctor gave me a bunch of medications which kinda worked I think and last month he told me to stop them and take only when required but now I don't know I'm almost crying everyday. At night, my brain feels like a safari where 100's of tabs are open and needs to shut down. There are random questions, random scenarios. I flinch even when there's any unusual sound. I wake up scared and palpitated in the morning. I took ELM Pro, as prescribed to me. But why is it happening again? It literally stopped and I was all better.
I am 26 years old and I’m very worried something serious may be going on, even wondering if I should rule out a brain tumor. For some time I’ve had extreme increasing forgetfulness (sometimes even forgetting meals), confusion, word-finding trouble/fumbling while speaking, occasional imbalance while walking stairs, mild headaches on waking, anxiety attacks around 4 a.m., and I sometimes vomit when very stressed. I am on pexidep 12.5CR since 3 Years
My all test are normal B12 is 326 and I do exercise daily .but mental weak
I also have extreme fearfulness and severe abandonment issues, cannot cope with stress well, and when I feel something may end or get disrupted, I can feel suicidal or overwhelmed. Could these symptoms be due to severe anxiety/panic or something neurological, and do they sound concerning enough to need a neurological evaluation? Should I consider a brain MRI or other tests to rule out serious causes? Please guide me on what evaluation would be appropriate.
I feel like some people (strangers or family members) do certain actions intentionally because they know those actions easily trigger me, and they mentally disturb me from within.
However, I don’t feel this way about my parents, because I fully trust that they wouldn’t do anything deliberately to trigger me.
In my case, some common examples are: someone honking loudly while passing near me, or someone making loud noises with utensils right when I enter a room.
I start thinking that as soon as I arrived, why did that person do this action? Why don’t they do it when I’m not around?
Whenever someone performs such actions in front of me, I feel anxiety and a lot of anger. Then I end up doing the same action myself, which gives me a sense of satisfaction.
And I also feel that if someone has done something to disturb me, I will always respond with a similar action, no matter what.
I feel like I've delusion of reference.
Hi I suffer from attention problems like when I turn my attention inwards my I get lost in thinking and fantasies and this used to happen when my brain is idle .
The moment I turn attention inwards i have strong imagination and emotions.
I feel this during walking ,while bathing and I don't observe surrounding environment.
I have lot of curiousity and get overexcitement which makes me tired .
I am perfectionist and huge procrastinator.
Its like I am stuck in thinking and less or doing and I love doing gym and brisk walking h it regulates mh mood and male me calm .
I know the best way to deactivate inner turbulence is to focus on the outside world.
I dont know whether it is adhd or simply hsp .
Because I have huge self awareness and I am mindful or introspective .
I enjoy deep thinking as well .I have sensitive to rejection and hurt and stress easily and I run behind novelty like within the same domain is this adhd or emotional dysregulation as I have maladaptive daydreaming in the past
Hello Doctor,
I am a 25-year-old male currently preparing for job interviews while also working in a shift from 12:00 PM to 9:30 PM. I am also dealing with financial stress and family responsibilities.
For the past few weeks, I have been facing difficulty with both focus and sleep. I find it hard to concentrate for long periods, get distracted easily, and often feel mentally fatigued. My sleep is also inconsistent — sometimes I take a long time to fall asleep, and other times I wake up feeling unrefreshed.
Because of my work shift, my routine is slightly irregular, and I am not sure if that is contributing to the problem.
I wanted to understand:
1. Whether this could be due to stress, anxiety, or my work schedule
2. If I should get any tests done
3. Whether medication is required or if lifestyle changes would be enough
4. How I can improve both focus and sleep naturally with my current schedule
I do not have any known major medical conditions.
Thank you.
