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.

How to Stay Awake Without Sleep for Exams
I'm 18 years old. I suffer from severe depression and self harm. I have my exams soon and I just can't sleep. I need to stay awake but even after consuming 2000mg of coffee, i feel like wanting to sleep. Should I eat more coffee?? How can I stay awake for longer periods if coffee isn't going to help.
Dr. Vikas Patel
Psychiatrist
Answered on 26th Apr '24
This happens when your body gets accustomed to it. Instead of more caffeine, try: taking short breaks, stretching your legs, and splashing cold water on your face. Discussing depression and self-harm urges with someone is crucial. Seeking help from a psychiatrist is the best approach to improving well-being and staying alert naturally.

Can depression and suicidal thoughts be treated effectively?
My name is Mohammad DILSHAD from ajmer My problem is depression and sucied thought
Dr. Vikas Patel
Psychiatrist
Answered on 26th Apr '24
I get that you're down and having thoughts of harming yourself. That's depression talking. Depression can make you feel super lousy, exhausted, and lose interest in fun stuff. Life events, genes, or brain chemistry issues could cause it. But the great news is depression is treatable. Talking to a psychiatrist, exercising regularly, and taking prescribed meds can help lift your spirits.

It's your brain's way of dealing with too much strain. But don't worry – some things help. Take deep breaths. Try yoga poses or go for walks. Talk with friends or family you can trust. See a psychiatrist if symptoms linger.

Constant worry and sadness make work hard and fun things unenjoyable. Lack of sleep worsens everything. But you're not alone in feeling this way. Depression happens for reasons like stress, difficult events, or brain chemistry changes. There are ways to feel better. See a psychiatrist or therapist too - they'll listen without judgment and provide strategies for managing feelings.

Why does my heart race when I stand up?
I have an issue where I stand up from getting out of a car outside and I get a like a pressure that starts in my throat and my heart rate increases pretty fast it only lasts a few seconds and it doesn’t happen Everytime mainly when I’m outside I suffer from extreme anxiety and have gas problems And heart related anxiety I have already had a doctor listen to my heart and he said it’s extremely healthy but I’m worried they miss something.

Answered on 19th Apr '24
Perhaps you face panic attack signs due to anxiety and stress. When anxious, our bodies can have increased pulse, throat tightness, and gas issues. Take deep breaths, drink water, relax to handle it. Additionally, therapy may help you address your anxiety. Visit a psychiatrist.

Can I take Yohimbine 5mg with aripiprazole for psychosis?
I take aripiprazole for an episode of psychosis, can I take Yohimbine 5mg while on aripiprazole? Thank you
Dr. Vikas Patel
Psychiatrist
Answered on 19th Apr '24
You did right checking before taking new meds. Aripiprazole treats psychosis; Yohimbine is for other issues. Together, they can interact badly, causing racing heart, high blood pressure, and anxiety. Talk to your psychiatrist before adding Yohimbine. It may not be safe with your meds. Best to avoid Yohimbine until your doctor clears it.

Why is my heart rate at 180mph post-nightmare?
hello! how are you? apparently i woke up today from a nightmare, but problem is that when i woke up there was a severe coldness everywhere in my body and my heartbeat was going 180mph for the past 15 minutes now, that was like 6 hours ago, now i’m doing fine and my heartbeat is now at 86mph and i’m relaxing but i feel like i’m still traumatized haha, should i be concerned tho or is it something normal??
Dr. Vikas Patel
Psychiatrist
Answered on 17th Apr '24
After waking up from a nightmare, feeling uneasy is normal. Your heart rate may increase quickly because your body thinks the danger is near. This reaction, though unsettling, typically subsides as you regain composure. However, if these occurrences persist frequently, discussing them with a psychiatrist would be advisable. Nightmares can sometimes reflect underlying concerns that require attention.
