How to manage depression and anxiety?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your problem and situation but you have not mentioned the dosage and duration of Aripiprazole and Levomepromazine. You must gradually taper off your tablet Quetiapine. Quetiapine is potent and if you stop suddenly, you will surely have withdrawal-like anxiety and sleep disturbance. You have not mentioned the dose of Aripiprazole. You can take up to 45 mg for full effect. You can take the tablet Clonazepam 0.5 mg for sleep disturbance and anxiety issues. Follow the lifestyle below for your problem, it will help you.

1. Do exercises daily for 30 - 45 minutes like at least going for a walk.
2. Do meditation for 20 minutes daily, just sit in one place in a comfortable position and try to concentrate on your normal breathing, don't stop or force yourself to stop your thoughts, just let it be.
3. You should eat healthy home-cooked foods, and avoid junk foods.
4. You must drink enough water.
5. You should spend quality time with friends and family daily or do video calls if you are living away from your family.
6. You should spend time on creative hobbies like reading good books, writing journals, painting, drawing, and learning new skills, languages, or musical instruments.
7. You should get enough seven to eight hours of sleep daily (sleep hygiene).
8. You need to fix your time for sleep, which means you must fix the time to sleep and awake.
9. You must not do any other activities in bed.
