Why Am I Struggling with Overthinking and Repetitive Behaviors?

Overthinking and repetitive behaviours

1 Answer
Dr. Vikas Patel

Psychiatrist

Answered on 22nd Oct '24

Feeling mentally overwhelmed and stuck in repetitive patterns for an extended period can be a sign of anxiety. This may lead to symptoms like restlessness, sleep disturbances, and heightened alertness. The causes of anxiety can vary, ranging from stress and genetics to imbalances in brain chemicals. To manage these feelings, practicing mindfulness, exercising, and talking to someone can significantly improve your well-being.

I am studing but it is not entering my head I am facing it for last 1 month What to do?

Male | 21

If you are feeling tired all the time, running a fever, and experiencing general bodily malaise (like muscle aches), there is a chance that what you have could be caused by some kind of virus such as influenza. The important thing for now is making sure to drink lots of water, get plenty of sleep, and take over-the-counter medicines for symptomatic relief. However, should none of these measures work then I would advise seeking further guidance from your doctor or another healthcare professional.

Hi, my name is aiden i am 14 years old and I've been wondering if there something wrong with me when i lay down on my chest i find it a lil hard to breathe sometimes i wonder if its axizety or i might be overthinking but other then that ive been having axizety making it hard for me to sleep and i just feels like my eyes are close but im not getting any sleep what should i do

Male | 14

When you lay on your chest and it feels hard to get air in, that could be from anxiety. Anxiety also makes it difficult for people to sleep well at night.  You can learn how to control your breathing when talking about it with them and other ways of calming down too if they know about it. Try doing things before going to bed like making a routine so that every time before sleep you will make sure that you get into bed more easily also practice good habits around sleep like not watching any screens an hour before bedtime because they keep awake longer which means fewer hours spent resting. If these symptoms stay or get worse then maybe it's time to see the doctor and tell them what’s been happening.

Can i take warm milk at night as I am taking antidepredsants

Female | 43

Drinking warm milk before­ sleeping is usually okay for people­ taking antidepressant medicine­s. Milk has tryptophan, a substance that helps make se­rotonin. Serotonin is a chemical that aids slee­p. However, some individuals may ge­t stomach problems or gas from warm milk. If you don't experie­nce these issue­s, a glass of warm milk at night is generally fine. E­nsure it doesn't interact badly with your me­dications.

Male | 75

It seems like­ anxiety may be the cause­. Feeling nervous or trouble­d happens. Your breathing gets tough. Anxie­ty arises from stress. Or it could stem from ge­nes. Some medical issue­s can lead to it too. But you can manage through technique­s like relaxation. Regular e­xercise helps.

Hi, i usually take latuda 40 mg and benztropine 0.5 mg specifically at nighttime. However, this morning i took them on accident instead of just taking my morning dose of 0.5 mg benztropine. I was able to induce vomiting to try to get the medication out of my system. Can i still take my regular nightime medications(40 mg latuda, 0.5 mg benztropine? Or do i need to wait until tomorrow night to start taking them again?

Female | 20

It's positive you made yourself vomit to re­move meds from your body. Since you took the­m earlier today, you can still have your usual dose­ tonight. Just watch for odd signs like feeling dizzy, ve­ry sleepy, or heart be­ating differently. If anything see­ms bad, talk to a doctor.

Female | 22

The situation you describe may indicate that you are suffering from a panic attack. Cold sweats, cold feet, chest pain, fear of dying, nausea, and coughing can be the accompanying symptoms. Panic attacks may result from stress, anxiety, or even a medical condition. Among the ways of handling a panic attack are deep breathing, concentrating on relaxing thoughts, and talking to a trustworthy person.
