Why does one tend to copy others and have difficulty focusing on various issues?
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I think I have a personality disorder. I do not remain the same and I change myself very early with different types of people. It seems like I do not have my own personality. I try to copy, or I try to become like the person whom I meet. Moreover, I have extreme focus issues. I cannot focus on one thing for more than a minute and I am also facing consistency issues. Kindly help.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I can understand your concern.
Thank you for taking help from a psychiatrist. It is difficult to say about your personality from the above details. It is not enough to reach any diagnosis. I can help you improve your mental health and concentration issues. I suggest you follow the below-mentioned lifestyle:
-
You should exercise daily for 30 to 45 minutes like at least going for a walk.
-
You should do meditation for 20 minutes daily. Just sit in one place in a comfortable position and try to concentrate on your normal breathing. Do not stop or force yourself to stop your thoughts. Just let it be.
-
You should eat healthy home-cooked foods and avoid junk foods.
-
You must drink enough water.
-
You should spend quality time with friends and family members daily.
-
You should spend time doing creative hobbies like reading good books, writing journals, painting, drawing, and learning new skills or language or musical instruments.
-
You should sleep for seven to eight hours daily.
-
You must avoid tobacco usage, alcohol consumption, or any type of substance abuse.
Live your life. Do not just spend it. Be bold and confident.
I hope you got answers to all the queries that you had.
Thank you.
