How to Stop Overthinking?

Bring yourself to the present moment: In other words, each time we are overthinking we cannot be in the present moment.The reality, however, is that the present moment is usually far better than the past or future we are overthinking about.
Replace Your thoughts: Yep, you can’t control the thoughts that pass through your mind but you can replace those negative thinking with positive ones.
Make a small shift in focus: How many times have you stopped work...more

Along with taking medications try being physically more active…doing some moderate age appropriate exercises and try not to spend time alone…. Also learn any relaxation training from a clinical psychologist and do it on a daily basis. The symptoms you mentioned are mainly related to fight or flight response if our body in response to stress.

I have schizophrenia and I don’t feel like to do regular exercise nowadays. On 29th october 2021 and 1st november 2021, a psychiatrist diagnosed me 3 times with schizophrenia and prescribed me second line of treatment (sizopin – clozapine 25 mg at 7 pm and amisulpride 100 mg - freq. 1 0 2) but I did’t start the allopathic treatment for schizophrenia and opted for natural home remedies, and watching sandeep maheshwari videos for positive affirmations. Is there cure for schizophrenia? Is recovery possible? Does medicines useful for schizophrenia? If yes, then which one? Ayurveda/unani, homoeopathy, or allopathic? If no, then what about psychological counselling? Many schizophrenia patients are taking antipsychotic medicines for 10 – 12 years but not relief. Any comment on this? I think medicines alone cannot treat schizophrenia because medicines cannot alter behaviour. Is schizophrenia a lifelong mental health issue? What are the causes of schizophrenia so that the root cause treatment can be find out? Clinical psychologist advised me not to watch negative programs like c.i.d, crime patrol and saavdhaan india. Which foods should be avoid in schizophrenia case patient? What should a schizophrenic person do to improve his/her condition? I am 22 years old male as of 2021. So am I too young to diagnose with schizophrenia? Why there are no lab tests to diagnose schizophrenia? Why so many doctors’ perspective/opinion about schizophrenia differ? Why some of the antipsychotic medicines for schizophrenia banned in some places? Is there a high chance of suicide for schizophrenia patients after the treatment because after the treatment, they may feel guilty and thus prone to suicide? Am I right or am I right? At the most, what will happen to a schizophrenic people who is not receiving allopathic treatment? Awaiting your reply. Thank you. Regards, xavier siby moorkattil (extc engineering student at x.i.e. College, mumbai)
