I'm a 23-year-old guy and I've been having sexual thoughts every day. I end up masturbating daily and can't seem to stop, no matter how hard I try. It feels like there's always a trigger, and even though I've tried to quit porn multiple times, I haven't been able to. What can I do to get a handle on this?

Question

I'm really struggling with my sleep schedule because I can only sleep 23 hours a day. Do you have any recommendations for mild sleeping pills that could help me? Looking for something that's gentle.

I'm really worried because I've been using Nexito Plus for about two months for my anxiety disorder, but I stopped taking it suddenly a week ago. Now I'm facing some issues like my anxiety's spiked up, there's this hissing sound in my ears, I'm feeling pain in my chest, and there's this weird pulpitating sensation. I'm also having pain under my ribs near my liver, but my ultrasound came back clear. Are these withdrawal symptoms from stopping Nexito Plus, and do you think it's related to me quitting drinking and smoking? I'm not on any medication right now and could really use some advice.

Question

I'm feeling extremely worried and tense since April, and it's affecting my breathing. I checked with my GP, did all the tests like thyroid, sugar, hemoglobin, and CBCthey're all normal. My ECG showed sinus arrhythmia. I'm on a tapering dose of Metxl 12.5 once a week after consulting with my GP. However, I'm still experiencing these anxious episodes where my pulse suddenly shoots up, and I feel hot, sweaty, and shaky. Sometimes, there's a headache, and I can even feel my pulse in my head. My heart races, and I get left arm and shoulder pain, along with nausea and loss of appetite. I rarely feel any chest pain, possibly due to anxiety, but it's mild. I've tried to calm myself, but this seems to have become a constant part of my health. Should I get another heart check-up because I did an ECG in June, or is this just anxiety? I'm really confused about what to do next.
