I'm experiencing something kinda strange: I wake up in the middle of the night and find myself masturbating, but it's like I'm only half-aware while it's happening. I remember it clearly the next day, though. This has been going on for about 3-4 months now, mainly during sleep every 5-6 days. I don't feel the urge or masturbate during the day at allI've stopped doing that since a year ago because I'm trying to focus on my studies and stay out of relationships. It's got me feeling pretty down. I really want to stop this unconscious night-time habit. Any advice on what might be happening and how I can manage it?

It sounds like you're experiencing a form of sleep-related behavior, which could be related to your subconscious mind, stress, or other underlying factors. It's important to address any feelings of anxiety or stress and consider speaking with a counselor or medical professional who can help you manage this situation and find ways to regain control over your sleep and well-being.

View allI just started taking Venlafaxine the other day and I'm noticing that my chest is getting more numb and tight every day. It's even giving me a bit of pain and makes it hard to breathe sometimes. I've heard I shouldn't just stop taking it because of withdrawal issues. Are these symptoms something that usually happens, or is something wrong? And if I decide to stop it soon since I just started, would I still go through withdrawals?
Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .

I'm really concerned because I've been masturbating every day and I'm not sure how to stop. Could this be affecting my sex life, and do I need any medication to help with this? What can I do to stop masturbating so much?
Masturbating daily is generally not harmful unless it interferes with your daily life, relationships, or well-being. To reduce or stop, try engaging in healthier habits like physical exercise, focusing on hobbies, or practicing mindfulness. If it's causing distress, consulting a healthcare professional can help to explore further options or counseling for behavior management.

I'm in college and really stressed because I have a paper due tomorrow. I'm dealing with a lot of anxiety and it's hard to focus, but I know I need to finish it. I've been thinking about taking my Atarax and combining it with caffeine, like maybe 3 shots of espresso. Is that safe?
Combining Atarax (Hydroxyzine) with caffeine is not recommended, as it can cause conflicting effectsAtarax is a sedative, while caffeine is a stimulant. This may lead to increased anxiety or other discomfort. It's better to focus on calming techniques or consult your doctor if you're feeling overwhelmed.
