Anxiety, panic
Hi! I think i am experiencing mental anxiety for quite some time now., i am having problems like - lump in throat, tiredness, stress, and headache. the problem is that a person started acting weirdly with me, treading a thin line between flirtation and being a concerned human being. he would ignore my messages deliberately for days, then suddenly start texting me. i had doubts that he liked me but since he was my senior I dare not ask him for 2 months. Then I confessed my feelings to him at the deliberation of my friends and he kept me on hold for 2 more months till i decided to give up because he won't clarify. he is basically given to cheating in relationships and flirtation. my friends find it acceptable according to the new modern ethos and they feel i am conservative. whenever they bring up his name, and talk about casual hookups being the norm, i feel cheated since they don't know the trauma i've been through, that he manipulated me psychologically. what do i do?

Hi, from what you have written you are having mild Anxiety and Depressive symptoms as a result of the stress of the situation you mentioned. This could be categorized as Adjustment disorder with mild anxiety and depressed mood. You will require counseling for this . Currently you are having mixed emotions probably of guilt, anger that your friends tricked you, wondering whether the way you look at relationships is right or your friend's perception is. Also, the added upset-ness that you may be having because of the boy and his attitude and the way he handled the issue, ignoring you and then giving you hope by texting you. In counseling you will learn to have clarity about these issues and also that you are better off without such complications. Your self esteem needs to be improve and you can learn to have better coping strategies. Do consult a Psychiatrist who does counseling or a Psychologist with counseling experience. You can definitely come out of these feelings, All the Best!

Hello there.  I can understand your concern.  I dont think its a medical issue. I just feel you need better friends with whom you van takk this out. Im no one to comment on relationships and all. Its your personal matter. But i would just say move on and ignore such things. There are so many things you can do in life which doesnt involve getting hooked and casual relationships. Concentrate on other better things. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain.
