I am currently feeling very irritable, short-tempered, and restless. My mind does not stay calm or peaceful. I am unable to feel happy or relaxed, and often get a feeling of wanting to cry. I feel mentally exhausted.
Additionally, I have a strong fear of arguments or conflicts. When someone else argues or raises their voice, my heart starts pounding (palpitations). I constantly feel that it would be much better if no one argues with me. This fear is also affecting me badly.
The doctor has written 1-0-1 for taking Fludac 60 mg for OCD, but I feel lazy during the daytime because of the medicine’s side effects. Will there be any problem if I take it after 9 PM at night?
Hello Doctor. I was prescribed Sertraline 50 mg and Clonazepam 0.25 mg for anxiety and panic symptoms. I am worried about dependency and withdrawal, especially with Clonazepam. If I take these medicines as prescribed, is withdrawal common? How are these medicines usually tapered safely, and what side effects should I realistically expect in the first few weeks?
Hey !
It is related to my mother , she is 57 as of now.
Diagnosed with Sugar ( type 2) , blood pressure ( anxiety related as suggested by a cardiologist), Vertigo ( sometime ago but now she is doing good with it.
Hyperthyroidism ( also diagnosed by the same cardiologist as he is general physician too)
For the last 3 years , she has had excessive religious OCD which is now impacting her daily life. She only talks about God and knowing all this she can't stop thinking about which further let her feel restless and anxiety driven by this. She is not on any medication related to this and no prior appointment to any psychiatrist. I am in a dilemma what to do as of now , as it is hard seeing her like this.
Further, she washes her more often now, the contamination issue is there, also she talks in a very depressing tone thinking she would never be getting out of this. Suggest
I started having this problem in 2021 after the death of my grandfather. After a while, I started feeling like I was getting sick.Even while sitting in class, I used to think the whole day felt unwell and dizzy, although till date I had never fallen due to dizziness.I got very nervous and would keep thinking something throughout the day.Then I thought I was very sick and wouldn't survive long.After that I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism.This problem of mine got better for some time but the overthinking never reduced.I recently had gallbladder removal surgery.A few days later, a girl in my class died.She died due to jaundice and hepatitis.After that I started overthinking more and thought I too had been diagnosed with fatty liver and that I might end up like her .I felt these things for at least 5 to 6 days.Since then, whatever symptoms I have had, I feel that my health is not good Whatever happens, my anxiety increases.
