Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi I'm a 21 year old female always had great health rarely sick. I'm currently going to college and I'm having a hard time with starting my homework, I get distracted very easy, my mood is not the same, I get angry very easily and have a hard time falling to sleep. I've never had this problem before. Is there something that I can do to fix this? I would really appreciate it! Thnx
I understand that you are going through a difficult time due to your problems. From the description of your symptoms, it appears that you are suffering from a stress-related disorder called Adjustment disorder. When stress becomes overwhelming for a person to handle, such kind of psychological and physical symptoms can ensue.
Now, since you seem to be quite distressed by these symptoms, I would advise you to seek professional help. Please consult a Psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation and further treatment. There are good medications available to relieve your symptoms as well as counselling for stress management. You can also try relaxation techniques like deep breathing, yoga, etc. for stress relief.
Best wishes.
