Dear Amey,
You can stop it suddenly. It may not give withdrawal symptoms. But your depressive symptoms will continue to be reducing your quality of life.

Melatonin helps in sleep initiation and clonazepam helps in all phases of sleep (initiation, maintenance and duration of sleep). Hence, if required then you can take both. However, you can consider of improving your sleep hygiene, if it is deranged.

My mother 48 years old had a problem of insomnia so she consulted a gynecologist who prescribed her livial 2.5 mg and lonazep 1 mg. Lonazep stopped working after 1 week so he increased the dose of lonazep to 2 mg and same thing happened. My mother had terrible mood swings, problem of acidity started and felt restless while taking livial and the sleep problem got worse. So we consulted another gynaecologist who prescribed her altonil 5 and zolfresh and premarin 0.625 mg. My mother had a hysterectomy in 2016 so livial didn't suit her. After taking altonil and zolfresh her insomnia is under control but the problem of acidity, indigestion, fatigue, depression, body temperature started increasing on taking premarin everyday. She stopped premarin for 2 days and these symptoms started fading away but when premarin is again started extreme acidity, dryness, depression, high body temperature started appearing. She is taking rabekind 20 every morning and premarin in the evening still she is having acidity and indigestion on the day she is taking premarin. She did not have any symptoms of menopause before taking livial or premarin. Her condition is getting worse on taking premarin, should she stop taking it altogether? Please help.

Insomnia is not her problem now, insomnia is cured after taking melatonin, problem is taking hrt. I want to know whether she should stop taking hrt or not.

Dear patient, the purpose of hrt is to provide comfort to the patient, if the same medication is causing trouble then it should be stopped. If you still have some doubts, do not hesitate to contact me.

Non-stimulant for adhd? I am 19m and I had diagnosed with adhd 3 month my psychiatrist gave me starttera 6 mg and said to eat half a tablet for 14 days. After 14 days, no improvement so he increased dose to 18 mg full tablet this time. He said to eat it for 14 days. No major improvement also this time, he said to eat the same meds for 21 days. I was losing few minor improvements that I had got earlier from using it. After that he prescribed the same again for 1 month. Now, I am currently on 14th day of current one month period, with no major improvement. I forgot to add, I also have issues with my sleep and anxiety disorder. And I also, be autistic. He had given me 2.5 mg melatonin for sleep. I even, tried to ask what issue I have, is it adhd/autism. He stopped me saying that what you want, you want to be treated easily, early with less meds. Or you want to forever dependant on drug and visit me regularly. He was even against my habit of searching/trying to know what meds I am taking, what issue I have from web or any other source, even from the doc himself. What! fews day ago, my gi doc gave me amitriptyline for anxiety with ppi and multi vitamin, minerals antioxidants tablets, because he was suspecting anxiety is the main cause of my gerd issue. Tbh, my gi doc meds were much more effective for my mental health than my psychiatrist. English isn't my native, sorry for that. Haha. Even I suck at my native language. Current meds addvitamin max tablets afternoon, benztre-d 20 mg morning empty stomach, triplet-10 10 mg 2 times a day, altonil plus 5 (5 mg) at night, axepta-18 (18 mg) morning. It also includes my adhd, gerd and anxiety meds.

I am himanshu kashyap, age-26 yrs, gender-male, height-5'4" weight-approx-50 kg, last 8-10 years I am suffering from some psychiatric and psychological issues like lack of interest in any activities, feeling sad, mood upset, lack of confidence, inferiority complex, confused about everything like about daily life, about career. My performance, productivity has become nil in all activities weather it is related to carrier or hobbies even I can not finish a single movie in one day. I take a lot of months to finish a single book which I can finish a single day if I read continuously. My all works take a lot of time to finish. I always feel unsafe, restless, uncomfortable, unsecured, unsatisfied. My concentration has become very poor. I do much over thinking, over planning, over management, arrangements, making over time table, strategies that never exist in real world. I do over analysis. A lot of my time waste in thinking, analysis and planning. I feel tensed, stressed and worried always. I want to live tension free life but I can't. My regularity, continuity has been destroyed. My time table, strategy, schedule run only few hours. Maximum it can run one to two days and after my schedule, plans become flopped and everything become disturbed and I go to in depression. My life has become 1-2 days normal, 2-4 days depression. My progress is on bottom. There is always running endless thinking in my mind. My mind never stop, never take rest even when I take sleep, my mind runs continuously. My appetite has become poor and I am facing severe constipation and difficulty in urination. I do not know that these problems of constipation and difficulty in urination is related to psychiatry or gastroenterology and nephrology. I sleep very lightly. I can't neither sleep not awake. I feel lack of dark sleep. There is no time of my sleeping or getup. I sleep at 2-3-4-5 am and getup 12-1-2 pm in midday. My life has become worst, hopeless, frustrated. I was taking these medications in present daxid 100 mg, fluvoxamine 50 mg, restonorm 1 mg, altonil 5 mg. But I stopped these medicines last 3 days because they were not giving satisfactory results. I hope, you will give me best advice so that my quality of life will enhance, thanks a lot.

Dear sir
you may need combination of medication to control your symptoms. It appears that you have both the symptoms of anxiety and depression. You need a medication that should take care of both plus sleep problem. Keep in mind that medication takes at least two weeks to control the symptoms. If you have taken more than two weeks ask your doctor to change the medication. Simultaneously you should also try meditation and yoga.
