If you are certain that there is no reason for your anxiety it clearly indicates that this comes from a very deep rooted experience. Your parents will be able to help you with information. Equipped with this information meet with a counselor and see what sense can be made of this situation. It is however fear based and so you are looking at dealing with this fear to finally resolve this issue. It is also possible that you are going through delayed adolescence and these issues are coming up for the last time seeking a resolution. So when you deal with the fear, your concentration too will return. But you may do some of the following too: Daily exercise of at least half an hour is a must. Even if you go to a gym, ask for aerobic and/or callisthenic exercises with whatever else you are doing. A healthy body harbors a healthy mind. With regard to memory, it is very important that your brain and body is ideally rested to be able to recall whatever is required, rather comfortably. Puzzles pose problems to the brain that help it to use new pathways and neurons, which give the brain considerable exercise. It taxes the left brain to use logic to solve the myriad possibilities which other activities do not stimulate. Crosswords are excellent for vocabulary learning and use. Jigsaws and Rubik cube stimulate different permutations to finally settle on the most likely one. Picture completion and anagrams help approach problem solving from several angles. Do Sudoku, and memory co-relation activities and skills. Have a good night?s sleep, have a good breakfast of more proteins, meditate often, remain free of stress, eat a lot of fiber (whole grains, fruits and vegetables), nuts, avocado, eat dark chocolate, consume less of fat and use olive oil instead, do Yoga meditation exercises, etc. Good social contacts are good for memory too: so make and keep good friends. You need to check out if you are stronger visual or auditory. The visual is a better mode than the auditory. However, if you combine the two modes, you will get the best concentration. Have a special place of learning, which should be well lit, with soft painted walls, well-ventilated, with no distractions. When you get bored, study by writing. If you repeat learning at least five to seven times, you will apparently remember for a longer time. Sit comfortably but do not slouch. The reading material should be of a fairly large print. Study at small intervals of about 40 minutes and then take a break or change the subject. Short-term memory is a faculty of the left brain, and long-term memory is a feature of the right brain. When people are stressed, they tend to favor the right brain and abandon the left brain, where short-term memory resides. So, it is really very simple: deal with the stress and activate left brain functions. Here are a few suggestions to activate left brain function: shut your left nostril and breathe, move your eyes from right to left and vice versa for at least half a minute at a time, and do callisthenic exercises with some form of counting, regularly.

Dear lybrate user. I can understand. Smoking cigarettes can cause cancer and other respiratory problems. Even 3 cigarettes could be dangerous. There are no direct effect on your sexual ability. Take care.

This is postural and positional headache due to fatigued of the muscles. So you should get intervals in between the long hours of computers.

This is due to negative thinking. She has to change the way she thinks. Ask her to change all negative thoughts to positive. Let her engage herself in some activity so that she will be busy. Ask her to develop some hobbies. Take her for a walk, talk to her lovingly. She may have some hidden feeling inside her. Extract from her through talk. Still she does not feel better, take her to a psychiatrist.

Hi I will prescribe some harmless but effective flower remedy available in homoeopathy shops. Try to buy original medicines. Mix 4 drops of aspen + 4 drops of cherry plum + 3 drops of white chestnut + 3 drops of mimulus + 3 drops of Rock Rose. Mix these with 100 ml water and drink it every night once before sleeping. If any problems consult me online.

Yes, it can be a part of the disease. There will be a very distorted self-perception and is connected to the disease especially if you suffer from the fear of rejection. Schizoaffective disorder is a very complex and difficult disease to treat, even with medication, which I presume you are on. All psychotropic medicines have side-effects: that is inescapable. But I suspect that you are depending entirely on medication when in reality you need to combine it with counseling or therapy. In therapy you will learn a lot of coping mechanisms and techniques to remain functional and lead a close-to-normal life. You will also learn about emotions and how they can impact your condition adversely. Expressing emotions in an appropriate manner will equip you for life. Talking and sharing about the many disturbing thoughts and learning to understand yourself and moderate your responses will go a long way towards normalizing and training your mind. Exercise must be a regular part of your life for various reasons. Put yourself on a productive and strict schedule. The idle mind is the devil's workshop for sure, and more so for a schizoid.

Hello, welcome to lybrate. a sound sleep leads to a sound mind, its good to see that you want to consult about your sleep issues, as most of the people just neglect it. Healthy sleep is considered to be a 6-8 hour sleep at night without frequent awakenings at night. Sleep disturbances can be caused by multiple factors such as stress; emotional disturbances; poor general condition; substance use such as smoke, alcohol; medications for some other conditions; work shifts etc. Hence to find out the exact cause and nature of sleep disturbance a detailed assessment is required. Sleep disturbances can be managed by simple measures by adopting sleep hygiene to use of sedative-hypnotic agents such as benzodiazepines, but the mode of intervention will depend on the severity and cause. Hence if you want to seek a detailed assessment and management of your sleep problem, do consult me.
