Bipolar Disorder Test
It is also accompanied by changes in energy, sleep, behaviour and thinking. It was in 1851 that the French psychiatrist Jean-Pierre made the first documented diagnosis of bipolar disorder which he termed as “la folie circulaire”, which when translated into English means circular insanity. Undue irritability is another sign of bipolar disorder.

General health knowledge
I'm currently a 19 y/o corporate employee and I joined corporate in March 2026. I used to feel lost , tired and exhausted everytime even after full sleep earlier as well but after the job things have got a bit more upscaled as I'm living alone here and it's a night shift that I work . I don't know if it's the schedule or maybe I'm not able to fit in the corporate I don't know. I feel very lonely and often find myself overthinking and panicking and crying in my room frequently or stressing over millions of things. And from past few weeks all i dream of is me working in the company and making mistakes. The pressure is getting heavy and I have lost interest in my hobbies that I loved to do . My food habits have got worsen too . And recently I found I gained sudden weight out of nowhere. I have lost motivation to do things and all I wish for is to just keep laying in my bed cause I'm forever tired . I stopped interacting with people that maybe its a social withdrawal. I'm anxious alltime.

Need help with psychiatrist
My husband is very scared of my mother in-law and says that is respect. I don't see any love or respect in the relationship only fear. She asks for heavy money monthly for the maintenance and is very dominant. Any phychiatist who can perform the counselling and get to know what is happening. He acts very weird and silent after talking to her. I am very much sure she does something. I need to know a good phychiatist who I can take him. Any suggestions
Comprehensive Issue
From childhood, I have lifelong difficulties that go beyond ADHD. When I listen to someone speaking, even carefully, I cannot process or understand — it feels like hearing a foreign language. Same with reading — I read but meaning does not reach inside. I cannot form mental images or visualize what is being explained. I cannot connect pieces of information together. These problems have persisted since childhood and affect every area of my life. A comprehensive assessment is required — this is more about comprehension and processing than attention alone. Despite working hard, I am not able to survive or cope. Life is becoming harder as I am growing. Depression because of this reason. Any doctor who understand this more than prescribing only medication. Thanks

What Is Neurofeedback Therapy? How Brain Training Actually Works
Patients usually arrive at the idea of neurofeedback in one of two states: hopeful, having read that it can "retrain your brain," or skeptical, having read the exact same thing and concluded it sounds too good to be true. Both instincts are reasonable. Neurofeedback is a real, decades-old ...
How Does Ketamine Work for Depression? a Psychiatrist Explains
The most common question I'm asked about ketamine isn't whether it works. It's why it works at all.It's a fair question. Ketamine is an old medication — it has been on hospital shelves as an anesthetic since the 1970s. It has nothing structurally in common with the antidepressants most ...
