Involuntary Sexual Activity During Sleep 1. I have been experiencing involuntary sexual activity during sleep for about 4 years. 2. It occurs predominantly during the first half of my sleep. 3. I have partial awareness during these episodes. 4. However, I am unable to control the activity once it starts. 5. Sometimes, masturbation or other sexual activity occurs involuntarily during sleep. 6. I become aware of what happened after waking up. 7. I have been experiencing marked anxiety related to this problem. 8. I also experience low mood at times. 9. Because of this, I have developed some social avoidance.

Hi, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism(Graves Disease) in 2014-15, then was treated for a long 2 years for the same. I developed anxiety and severe insomnia that time. As per psychiatry consultation got treatment for the same with antidepressants (pexep-cr 12.5, mitraz, amital) and quitipine 25mg(sometimes 12.5mg). Psychiatric treatment was continued upto Nov+2018. Things improved over time. After that till now I was overall fine. But now again the sleep problem has started. I'm currently taking levothyroxine for my hypothyroid. Once graves disease was treated it was identified as hasimoto thyroditis with anti tpo of 870. Currently sleep problem constantly since 3 weeks. My thyroid TSH levels are now 2.85(thyronom dose is 62.5mcg), Ft4 is 1.67, ft3 is 2.64) but sleep is not coming on its own. I have consulted psychriatist and has been prescribed mirtaz 7.5 for 10 days and zolphidem 5mg. It's now 5th day but I can't still sleep with these medicines. What to do in this scenario?
My psychiatrist prescribe me stamlo 2.5, etizolam 0.25 and setraline 50 mg at night. Is it safe to take all this medicine
