I am 16 year old boy and having mental and physical weakness in body. I masturbate a daily one time from 8 month. I don't like to talk with people nor even feel like connection with anyone. My sleep cycle is heavily disturbed that's why I sleep in day and awaken all night even though I don't want to do this.
Male | 16
Masturbating daily is normal but feeling weak and disconnected isn't. Lack of energy and disturbed sleep can be linked to many causes, like stress or depression. I recommend talking to someone you trust, like a parent or a school counselor, to get some help and support.

So Doctor what is the solution what she have to do ?
Male | 18
Your mom could be going through anxiety and panic attacks. When a person’s heart is beating fast, can’t keep still, and has bad thoughts, it might be a panic attack. It could get worse if she doesn’t sleep well, take enough water and use the phone a lot. She ought to rest more, ensure she drinks sufficient water, and take breaks from the phone if she wants to feel better. Some deep breaths may help calm her down when having one. These signs should be reported to her general practitioner immediately.

Can I stop 50 mg zoloft cold turkey after 6 days of use?
Female | 25
Taking a 50mg Zoloft dose abruptly for 6 days without medical advice is not the right thing to do. The abrupt termination of this medicine can produce withdrawal of the symptoms and may affect your undesirable mental health. A psychiatrist or a mental health professional would counsel reducing the medicine very slowly and supervising you closely.

It's important to understand that schizophrenia is a chronic condition that requires ongoing treatment. If you're experiencing excessive sexual desire, it may be a side effect of your medications or related to the condition itself. I strongly advise you to consult a psychiatrist who can adjust your treatment plan or provide guidance on managing these symptoms effectively.

Female | 23
You may have something called sleep talking or night terrors. When one is stressed or anxious, they may talk or shout while normally sleeping. You can try to reduce the stress before going to bed by using some relaxation techniques or maybe even have a quiet bedtime routine. But if that doesn’t work out then I would advise you to see a sleep specialist who will be able to help further.

Female | 23
It seems that you might have parasomnia a type of sleep disorder. It can cause sleep talking or shouting without your awareness. This might be related to stress, anxiety, or even irregular sleep patterns. Try to manage stress levels, keep a consistent sleep schedule, and develop a relaxing bedtime routine to lessen these incidents. If this does not help, seek advice from a psychiatrist.

Anxiety, depression, and stress make life difficult. Feeling worried, sad, overwhelmed - it's common but important to take care. Doctors prescribe antidepressants, and anti-anxiety medicines; they assist. Talking helps too; chat with someone you trust or a therapist. Self-care matters; be kind to yourself.

I was wondering if I might have something such as DID, as I have been experiencing some symptoms. 1: I have auditory hallucinatons from time to time, like people talking, or whispering my name. 2: I cannot remeber most of my childhood at all. 3: I also talk to myself a lot, like I am a different person. 4: I have visual hallucinations sometimes, like shadows in the corner of my eye 5: Also have trouble focusing sometimes 6: very impulsive sometimes 7: I also daydream alot, and usually for 30 minutes + I and my sister was verbally abused from 2016 to 2022. It stopped in 2022 because I pointed it out. My ‘alters’ aren’t so complicated they are just different aspects of myself really. Most of the time to the extreme though. Like one is me but angry, sad, etc. Once I had a bit of a dissociative fugue, when I kind of just fazed out on the bus and I came to, on the bus but at a different point in the road, and I had no memory of what had happened.

Based on the symptoms, your problem may be Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID). Consulting with an experienced psychiatrist or clinical psychologist, especially in the field of DID, is crucial in diagnosing and planning personalized treatment.
