What causes anger, irritability, and difficulties in concentration and sleep?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 24 years old, and I am working. Currently, there are a lot of personal issues going on in my life for three months. Because of this, I am not able to concentrate on anything. Sometimes, it is difficult to sleep also. There are a lot of things going on in my head whenever I sit idle. Overthinking makes me feel weak. I get irritated easily nowadays. I get angry about silly things and yell at my parents sometimes (which I am not proud of). I feel helpless and alone. Please help.

Hello,

Thanks for choosing Icliniq.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

From the available description, there are two possibilities that can be considered from a mental health perspective. The first is excessive stress, as you are working in a sector that is known for irregular and prolonged working hours and poor quality of life. The second possibility is depression, as there are many symptoms that could be due to depression alone in your description. The possibility is again high as hopelessness and irritability with poor sleep are present. In my opinion, you need to see a mental health professional without delay. There are an enormous number of psychiatrists, and you can see the one which is located in your area for further diagnosis and management.

I hope this helps you.

If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.

Thanks and regards.
