I've been eating raw rice since I was a kid, and now I find myself doing it about 23 times a day. I'm starting to worry if this habit is harmful to my body. Can you advise me on how to stop this?

Eating raw rice frequently can be harmful to your body as it may lead to digestive issues and nutrient deficiencies. Try to substitute raw rice with healthier snacks like fruits or nuts to gradually break the habit.

View allI've been taking Dedep Plus tablets from my psychiatrist for about a month. The doctor suggested I take them for 20 days and come back for a follow-up, but I haven't gone back yet and I'm still continuing with the tablets. Should I be worried about any health problems from taking them longer than prescribed? Also, I've been managing Type 2 diabetes for over a year and I'm on Atorlip 10mg too. Could this combined use affect my health?
Continuing Dedep Plus tablets beyond the prescribed 20 days without consulting your psychiatrist can lead to adverse effects, such as increased risk of suicidal thoughts, serotonin syndrome, or interactions with your diabetes medication or Atorlip 10mg; additionally, antidepressants like Dedep Plus can affect blood sugar levels, so it's crucial to consult your psychiatrist and diabetic specialist to adjust your treatment plan and ensure safe management of your conditions.

I'm feeling a bit stuck and could really use some advice. I've been dealing with anxiety for around nine months and have been on medication, gradually reducing the doses as my doctor advised. Everything was going okay until I had a panic attack ten days ago. My doctor then prescribed etizola beta 0.25 mg for ten daysdouble dose for the first five, then single. After switching to the single dose, I was handling the withdrawal symptoms fine, but for the last two days, I've needed to take my dose in the morning instead of the evening because the symptoms get worse then. I'm not sure if I should increase my dose? I'm in the process of changing doctors, and the new one won't be available until Monday, so I'm kind of in a bind for the next couple of days. What should I do?
It is not recommended to increase the dose of etizola beta 0.25 mg without consulting a healthcare professional. However, if your symptoms are worsening in the morning, you can try taking an additional half dose (0.125 mg) in the morning to help manage your symptoms until you can see your new doctor on Monday. Remember to stick to the prescribed total daily dose and do not exceed the maximum recommended dosage. If you experience any severe or concerning symptoms, please seek medical attention immediately.

I've been dealing with masturbating a lot since I was 11, and I mean like 5-6 times a day even now that Im 20. It's starting to mess with my life. I'm having trouble sleeping, waking up super early, and I get these body aches, shivers, and sudden head and neck pains. 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?
