I'm trying to understand the meds I'm taking. My doctor first gave me Etilaam Pro 20 for my anxiety for about 20 days, and when I went back after 15 days, he switched me to Recita Forte for 10 days. Are these two medicines basically the same and used for the same purpose?

View allI've been dealing with some anxiety issues and I've noticed a habit of mine that's been concerning me. I tend to shake both my legs when I'm sitting cross-legged, and I can't help but wonder if it's causing me harm. After I'm done with the shaking, I sometimes start to sweat and feel pretty tired. Should I be worried about how this might be affecting my heart or maybe my overall health?
That is called restless leg syndrome,visit Psychiatrist for appropriate help.and no it doesnt cause any effect on heart

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.

Could I go ahead and stop taking Ciplar LA 40 since I've been on it for a year and my symptoms are getting better? My psychiatrist thinks I should stop, but I'm worried about whether that could cause any problems. What do you suggest?
It is important to follow your psychiatrist's advice when it comes to stopping medication. Ciplar LA 40 is a brand name for propranolol, which is commonly used to treat various conditions including high blood pressure, angina, and tremors. If your psychiatrist has recommended stopping Ciplar LA 40 after a year of use and your symptoms have improved, it may be safe to discontinue the medication. It is important to gradually reduce the dosage under the guidance of your psychiatrist to avoid any potential withdrawal effects. Follow your psychiatrist's instructions closely to ensure a safe and smooth transition.
