I'm feeling really stuck with this porn addiction and it's taking a big toll on my time and energy. Lately, whenever I'm alone in my room at night, I can't help but watch porn until I fall asleep, and I end up masturbating. I've tried to control it myself, but it's just not working and it's affecting my productivity. Could you please offer some advice on how to overcome this?

View allI've been experiencing hyperventilation quite often, especially when I'm feeling excited or stressed. It seems to linger in my mind, and when I concentrate on it, I feel like I have some control over it. This usually ends up giving me short panic attacks. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?
refer to psychiatrist once

I'm scheduled for arthroscopic ACL reconstruction surgery next month but I'm currently taking Luramax 40, Apizole, and Sizopin for my mental health. Could these meds cause any complications during the surgery? Do I need to stop taking them beforehand and if so, how long before the surgery should I stop?
As such there is no direct impact of medicine on surgery or vice versa. But couple of things to bear in mind are.... any surgery can be stressful as it involves being in hospital, off your regular routine / work, pain etc. And stress can result in deterioration in mental health condition. Just make sure you have good support network and you are in touch with your psychiatrist before and after surgery to monitor your mental state and to review medicines as necessary. Secondly, as long as you have no other medical conditions, medicine is stopped only on the day of surgery. Once you start on oral feeds medicine can be resumed. Please inform the anaesthetist about your medicines and have your psychiatrist's contact number handy for your orthopedist to contact if necessary. Best wishes
