Why do I get pleasure from pain?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Endorphins that are released in painful experiences are often perceived as pleasurable. Stress and pain can also stimulate the serotonin and melatonin production in the brain, which transforms painful experiences into pleasure. The release of epinephrine and norepinephrine in pain can also cause a pleasurable 'rush'.

View allI'm really worried about my wife. She's been getting angry a lot lately, and it's starting to become violent and abusive. We've only been married for a year, and she's 32. It seems like she can't control her anger and becomes really stubborn, refusing to listen to anyone. I'm not sure what to do. Can you give me some advice on how to handle this?
To confirm TB elimination, patients typically undergo a combination of tests and evaluations. Here are the key indicators: - *Sputum Smear Conversion*: Patients need to show negative sputum smear results, indicating the absence of TB bacteria . - *Chest X-ray*: A chest X-ray is taken to check for any remaining signs of TB infection. - *Clinical Evaluation*: The patient's overall health and symptoms are assessed to ensure they have improved. - *Follow-up Tests*: Additional tests, such as sputum cultures or molecular tests, may be conducted to confirm the elimination of TB bacteria. It's essential to note that TB treatment typically lasts for 6-9 months, and AKT3 is not a standard TB treatment regimen. I recommend consulting a healthcare professional for personalized guidance and confirmation of TB elimination.

I'm really concerned about the effects of masturbation and I'm curious about how I can stop it. I've been doing it for the past two years and it's starting to feel like an addiction. Can you help me understand more about this?
Masturbation is a natural activity, but if it feels like an addiction and interferes with daily life, it can have emotional and psychological effects, such as guilt, anxiety, or reduced energy. To reduce or stop, its important to focus on healthy coping mechanisms, like exercise, hobbies, and managing stress, while seeking support from a counselor or therapist if needed.

I've been dealing with anxiety for years and I have an attack almost every day. Today my heart rate zoomed up to 102, and it felt like I was almost detached from reality. Is this something I should be worried about? What can I do to handle these symptoms better, and when should I consider getting help from a professional?
Experiencing daily anxiety attacks and a heart rate of 102 during such episodes can be distressing. Its essential to address both the psychological and physical aspects of anxiety. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is highly effective in treating anxiety disorders, helping you manage symptoms and reduce the frequency of attacks. Additionally, mindfulness, meditation, and breathing exercises can provide immediate relief during an anxiety attack. Consulting with a mental health professional for therapy and possibly a psychiatrist for medication management can offer a comprehensive approach to treating your anxiety. It's important to seek help to improve your quality of life.
