Asked for female, 30 years old from Bijnor

I got engaged 3 months ago. Arranged marriage. We talked for 4 months before the engagement. Few days after engagement my past relationship came up and things changed a bit. Now we don't talk like we used to do before engagement. Things get awkward sometimes. We both are trying to get past that rough patch but it affects me. I constantly miss how much we used to talk. I get irritated easily, lost 3 kg wt within 20 days and don't feel like eating, lost interest in my hobbies and few daily activities, have no motivation in the morning to get up and start my day, face trouble sleeping, feels like i'm emotionally dependent on him, thinks a lot that I am not good enough and nothing will be normal ever again. We msg daily asking how are you and if have you eaten anything but if no call for 2-3 days I start thinking that he love me less now. Earlier we used to talk daily on call/video call. I don't know what to do.

Both are good. Such combination studies are not done usually. So, you can use whichever combination works for you. But at the age of 64, it is better to use etizolam.
