I'm always in a low mood and feel really irritable, and it's been affecting my memory these past six months. I just don't feel like doing anything anymore or have the mood for anything. What should I do?

I've been experiencing some trouble with sleeping and heard about Trika. Are there any side effects I should be aware of? Also, is it the best option for a sleeping pill, or are there other alternatives I should consider? Would love to get some guidance.
Truka, also known as Ayurvedic medicine, can have side effects like digestive issues, allergic reactions, or interactions with other medications, and regarding slipping pills, Truka is not a proven or recommended treatment for erectile dysfunction (ED) or premature ejaculation (PE),

I'm looking to find ways to reduce my sexual desires and I'm wondering if there are any medications available for this. Could you provide some guidance on this issue?
It's important to approach concerns about sexual desire with care. Medications like **anti-androgens** or **selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)** may be prescribed in certain cases to help reduce sexual drive, but these should only be taken under the guidance of a healthcare professional. I recommend discussing your concerns with a doctor who can provide a personalized treatment plan.
