Psychiatry is the study and diagnosis of mental disorders. In the 4th century bce, Hippocrates theorized that physiological abnormalities may be the root of mental disorders. Geriatric psychiatry emphasizes the biological and psychological aspects of normal aging, the psychiatric impact of acute and chronic physical illness. Counselling and therapy have been effective in countering suicidal tendencies, self-harm and low mood.

I do not know how to describe my situation but I have been anxious a lot lately, getting offended on small things, past incidents are coming to my mind and then I am getting angry about those things. I often notice myself day dreaming imagining a perfect world. I am facing lower confidence levels and procrastinating my priorities a lot, I am worried a lot, overthinking all the time, appears to me that my mind is never at rest. I scroll phone a lot and cannot find motivation to complete my tasks. I feel exhausted. My childhood was not very nice and those incidents still scares me and I am going on defensive mode. I need advice to cope up with my situation.
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.
31. Male. 5'6". 77 kg. Paliperidone. I am suffering from nervous shutdown symptoms since 2015. I also started suffering from symptoms like laughing alone or muttering past conversation I had on social media out loud since 2020. My parents insist me on going to psychiatrist for this. One time I misunderstood prescription and took 10 SOS eitizolam pills as I thought they would cure me out of shutdown but they were for weak hearted feeling that I was having. So after overdose I was hospitalized and during my extended stay at hospital I became aggressive so combined with my shutdown and aggression I was diagnosed with schizophrenia and put on paliperidone 150 mg. But paliperidone is making my symptoms worse. I now have ADHD like symptoms due to high dopamine blockade and hence cannot read( jump t conclusions and skip stuff which I feel is unimportant). Doctors says will take you off paliperidone after I get a job and become functional again. Is doctor correct in keeping me on paliperidone?
