Question

I'm finding that sometimes I'm just fine and everything's normal, but then out of nowhere, I get really hyper and act rudely to people around me. Right after that, I feel super uncomfortable and just want to be alone for a while. Its like I cant stop thinking too much about even the smallest things, and it really hurts. What could be going on with me?

Question

I'm really worried about alprazolam. Is there a safe amount to take in one day? I'm concerned because I heard that 5 grams might be deadly. Also, can it interact with paracetamol if I take them together?

Question

I'm wondering if my blood pressure readings like 120125 over 6065 are considered normal. I've been having some health and heart anxiety. I went to a cardiologist, and everything like the echo and ECG came back normal, but they still prescribed me Ciplar, Stalopalm, and Trinerve. Are these medications actually for anxiety? Also, since I'm relatively young, I'm curious if I can manage this anxiety with yoga and meditation instead of medication. My resting heart rate usually stays around 55 to 60. Could you give me some advice?
