I'm dealing with social anxiety disorder and I'm curious about how using propranolol randomly might affect my health. If I take it for a few days and then take a break for a few days, could that be a problem?

"Hello, for social anxiety disorder, propranolol can be used on an as-needed basis before social situations to help with symptoms. It is generally safe to use daily or randomly as needed. The usual dosage for propranolol in this case is 10-40mg taken 30-60 minutes before a stressful event. It is important to consult with your doctor for the proper dosage and usage instructions based on your individual needs."

View allMy boyfriend is using non-prescribed Decanabol along with testo once a week for his surgery-induced scoliosis, but he's been really struggling with depression, severe irritability, and personality changes. I'm worried about how these steroids might be affecting his mental health could this be a side effect?
First of all you should ask your boyfriend to consult his doctor for prescription as it's never good to self medicate... Steroids do induce Depression, psychosis, personality changes etc..also testosterone products can induce Psychosis...So the PPT factors for your boyfriend's situation are there...I advise you to consult a psychiatrist also for detailed evaluation and Management of the case... Regards..Hope it helps...

I've been struggling with anxiety after my surgery and my mom is prone to panic attacks too. With the lockdown still going on, it's been really tough to manage. What can we do to cope with this at home?
While a complete and permanent cure for panic disorder is not always possible, various treatments can significantly reduce the frequency and severity of panic attacks. These include psychotherapy, particularly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and in some cases, medication, along with lifestyle adjustments and stress management techniques.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with depression symptoms for three months now and I've noticed that when I dont take my medication, I end up with a headache. I was on nexito forte and lesuride for the past month but my doctor switched my lesuride dose to sulpitac 50. To be honest, I really dont want to rely on medication. Can you tell me how long I'll need to keep taking these meds?
before starting of the medicines it is better to take advice from the consultant
