How to check whether my metal health is ok?

230 days ago

1 answers

Lately, I had a breakup and I myself feeling that my mental health is not ok. Because I'm too emotional to everything even if it doesn't matters to me. I'm not interested in anything. Becoming an extreme introvert. Feeling loneliness even when I'm sorrounded with my family and friends. I'm not happy and feeling a silence but not peaceful. And I have sleeping issues too. When I cry, my chest aches.

Alphonsa, you’re 22 and going through emotional pain after a breakup. Feeling overly emotional, losing interest, becoming withdrawn, feeling lonely even around others, and having sleep issues can be signs of stress on your mental health.  

These may point to depression or emotional adjustment issues. Chest pain while crying shows how deeply it's affecting you.  

A detailed psychiatric evaluation is needed to understand your condition better. I suggest you book an audio or video consultation so we can assess things properly and plan support through therapy and if needed, medication.  

You can feel better with the right help. You're not alone.

Hello Akshay. The symptoms you are describing indicate that you are having Depression. Let me know the duration of these symptoms as well so that I can guide you accordingly. Depression is an actual biological disorder and occurs when the neurotransmittors in the brain are deficient. Depression is very much treatable. Management includes
1) Medications (of severe and prolonged enough) - like SSRIs / SNRIs - take 1-2 weeks to act and need to be taken for 6-9 months to prevent further relapses.
2) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (alone or in combination with medications)- to reduce negative thinking and improve coping skills
3) Mindfulness for stress management
4) Lifestyle and diet changes
Let me know if you need any further help.
Regards.

Mr. Shah,
Your symptoms suggest a pattern of work-related anxiety with physical stress responses—like headache, body pain, fatigue, and low energy.

This can be managed with:

Medication – A low-dose anti-anxiety medicine (like an SSRI) may help reduce both mental and physical symptoms.

Routine changes – Adequate sleep, light daily exercise, and regular meals can significantly improve energy and mood.

Stress management – Deep breathing, brief breaks during work, and relaxation techniques can help lower tension.

These symptoms are treatable with the right plan. A short evaluation can help tailor the best approach for you.

I am suffering from hepatomegaly but constantly thinking I can have ascitis due to Nani had but in USG there was only shown hepatomegaly and bowel loops with gas filled but my mind is working in different ways

Dr. Alan Reji

227 days ago

You're dealing with a lot, both physically and mentally, and that anxiety is totally understandable—especially when a loved one like your Nani had a serious condition like ascites. But it's important to focus on facts, not fears. Your ultrasound clearly shows hepatomegaly (enlarged liver) and gas-filled bowel loops, but no ascites. Ascites would be very clearly visible on USG as fluid buildup in the abdomen, and if it was there, it would’ve been mentioned. Constant gas and bloating from the bowel loops could be what's making you feel "full" or uncomfortable in the belly, mimicking what your mind fears.

What you're experiencing is health anxiety, where the brain fixates on “what ifs” even when tests say otherwise. It’s common when there’s a family history of serious illness. Try to trust your reports and doctors—your liver might be mildly enlarged due to fatty liver, infections, or lifestyle-related causes, but it’s very manageable, especially at your age. Start with a low-fat diet, minimal alcohol (if any), regular exercise, and get liver function tests if not already done. And don’t hesitate to talk to a therapist—it really helps when your mind keeps looping into fear. You will be okay—let’s take this one step at a time.

Meer Rabia,  
Your symptoms—overthinking, mood swings, fear, panic attacks, and feeling alone—are commonly seen in individuals with OCD and anxiety spectrum disorders. The feeling of not having someone to talk to can make it worse.

You need a detailed psychiatric evaluation to understand the intensity of OCD, anxiety, and possible depression. Treatment should be personalized and may include:

1. Medication to reduce anxiety and intrusive thoughts  
2. Structured therapy to help manage OCD and emotional regulation  
3. Breathing exercises and grounding techniques for panic and suffocation  
4. Support groups or platforms to connect with others safely

With the right help, you don’t have to deal with this alone—healing is possible.

Hello Mohit,

Aapki badhne wali bechaini, pet ki dikkat aur tabiyat theek na lagna stress, anxiety, ya side effects ki wajah se ho sakti hai. Kyunki aap BP ki dawai aur Escitalopram le rahe hain, kuch points par dhyan dena zaroori hai:

	1.	Side Effects Check Karein – Escitalopram shuru ke dino me bechaini badha sakti hai, lekin ye 2-4 weeks me sudhar jata hai. Agar dikkat zyada hai, doctor se dose adjust karane ki salah lein.
	2.	BP & Pet Ka Dhyan Rakhein –
	•	Pani zyada piyein, fiber-rich diet lein (sabzi, dal, dahi, fruits).
	•	Caffeine aur spicy khana kam karein.
	•	Chhoti meals lein aur probiotic foods try karein (buttermilk, curd).
	3.	Relaxation Techniques:
	•	Deep breathing, halka morning walk ya stretching karein.
	•	Soch positive rakhne ki koshish karein, aur stress ko thoda manage karein.

Agar bechaini aur pet ki dikkat zyada ho rahi hai ya kayi din se relief nahi mil raha, toh doctor se dobara consult karein.

I have got addicted to Lorazepam 1 mg tabs. Earlier also I have taken psychiatric medicine and got well. But later I again started taking psychiatric medicine which i Tend to abuse. How to get over this addiction

Dr. Mayuri Kakoti

Hello,
At 61, with heart and diabetes history, don’t stop Lorazepam suddenly—it can cause serious withdrawal. Consult a psychiatrist to taper the dose safely and possibly switch to a safer alternative. Therapy (like CBT) helps manage anxiety without addiction. Keep BP, sugar, and sleep under control, avoid alcohol/caffeine, and build a routine. With medical support and slow tapering, you can overcome this addiction safely and prevent relapse.
