How to deal with paranoid feelings?
Patient: I am a 15 year old girl and have been drinking monster energy everyday for a few weeks,not healthy i know.Lastnight i had a can in bed and then i mastrbated,this was so scary,my blood pressure went straight up and i began to feel extremely paranoid,i have asperger's syndrome so that contributes to me feeling quite paranoid,anyway,i began to feel a hot feeling in my belly (when i get paranoid or nervous) and i had a breakdown and had to walk around.I woke my mum up and told her,it was really embaressing but i though it was the best thing to do.The next day (today) i am still feeling really paranoid please help,i know i sound like a creep but i'm seriously worried,thanks. Doctor: HIThanks for using healthcare magicI think, you have anxiety attack and in that case, you need low dose benzodiazepine. That would to control these anxiety symptoms. This drug is not available over the counter, so you should consult a psychiatrist for proper management. You can also try some relaxation exercise that would keep you calm. In case, you need further help, you can ask.Thanks
