For good sleep, just try out these simple ways - 1. Stick to a sleep schedule- Go to bed and get up at the same time every day. Try to limit the difference in your sleep schedule on weeknights and weekends to no more than one hour. Being consistent reinforces your body's sleep-wake cycle.
If you don't fall asleep within about 20 minutes, leave your bedroom and do something relaxing. Read or listen to soothing music. Go back to bed when you're tired. Repeat as needed.
2. Pay attention to ...more

Hi and thanks for question. Start of treatment you feel such kind of symptoms due to medication. But continue the medicine. If symptoms persist more than after 15 days than change of medicine needed.

My sister was suffering from some kind of mental illness, she is hearing things. She thinks that she is good but 'someone' is trying to make her bad (spoil her) but she choose to be in the right path. But other people may listen to that 'someone' and start criticizing her. So, she is afraid. She keeps telling that her mind is divided into three parts-part1 is telling her to make herself educated, part-2 is telling her to control her body language and part 3 is that part which is telling her the things that someone has told her earlier to spoil her but she never allowed them to enter her mind. It started before four days (though she keeps saying things like some people are bad, she always had a doubtful kind of attitude but it became very serious now. Before three days from now, she became out of control, she suddenly starts crying and then laugh at the same time, she was behaving and acting like she was afraid of something. We took her to a consultant (Psychiatrist probably), he told that she is having extreme depression and prescribed medicines (*i don't know everything what he said because I was not allowed to enter the chamber, my father and mother went inside with her)*.That day she wasn't talking with us but from the next she started making some progress but she keeps telling the same things again and again. We are trying to help her and telling her to forget all those things but after sometimes she starts to tell the same things. Though she can read and write very well like normal (I asked her to make me understand a chapter of my book, she did it like she usually does). Medicines prescribed by doctor are: combitone plus oltha 7.5 tremnil zolford From yesterday she became a bit normal but she keeps asking us about the real sounds, if they are real or not. I want to know it is Schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or just depression? And will she ever become normal without any future trouble? PLEASE HELP!

By your description I think your sister is having schizoaffective disorder. With regular medication and psychotherapy she may become near normal. I would suggest you to see a counseling psychologist along with the psychiatrist. Family therapy is also needed to keep your sister normal. please don't get panic. Mental disorders are like other disease. If you need my help then I'm available here on Lybrate on text counseling.

Its good that you have reached out for help. It seems your problems might be because of Anxiety or depression. This problem is curable with proper treatment. Unfortunately, it is not advisable to prescribe medicine without taking detailed history however you can consult a local psychologist for treatment without medications.

Dear lybrate-user, it is often said that an empty mind is a devil's workshop. Your younger brother in involving himself in more of these activities as his energies are not goal directed. The aggressiveness, the substance abuse, masturbation etc are just ways in which he is expressing his pent up energies, which is a basic need. In fact using substances is a sign of escaping responsibilities. He is a 25 year guy. The main concern is why isn't he involved in any job, or business. One reason could ...more
