Dear one, I hear you. I know it’s been a long road living through layers of medication, inner exhaustion, mental heaviness, and thoughts that most people can’t even begin to understand. When someone carries this much silently for years, they don’t just need treatment they need to feel heard, held, and understood.
What you’re describing the tiredness, anxiety, speech disturbances, even the feeling of subtle exposure or contamination this isn’t just in your head. It’s your nervous system crying out, asking for space, stillness, and deep rest. After years of strong psychiatric medications, the body becomes overstimulated and numbed at the same time leading to exactly the kind of confusion and emotional pain you’ve been going through.
But here’s something I want to tell you very honestly you’re not broken. Your body is tired, yes. Your mind is heavy, yes. But your awareness is intact. You still feel, think, reflect and most importantly, you still want to heal. That means your spark is alive, even if dim.
So right now, we’re not rushing into herbs or medicines just yet. First, let’s talk. Let’s understand your journey.
Let me ask you a few questions not to judge or diagnose, but just to listen:
When did you first start feeling like “something changed” in your mind or body? Was it after a particular life event, relationship, loss, or stress? Do you still feel connected to anything in life that gives you a little meaning? Like music, books, a memory, a place, or a person? What does your day feel like? When you wake up, do you feel rested or already heavy and tired? Do you get dreams? If yes, are they peaceful or disturbing? Is there anyone in your life you can sit with in silence and still feel safe? Have you ever felt truly relaxed and light in your body in the recent years even for a few minutes? If yes, when?
These questions are not tests. They’re doorways. Your mind has been carrying a lot, and before we try to change anything, we just want to honor your experience. To let the part of you that’s been unseen finally be seen.
From the Ayurvedic lens, what you’re going through is most likely a long-standing vata imbalance, worsened by ojas depletion (your inner vitality getting drained slowly). This can cause:
Nervous restlessness Anxiety with fatigue Racing or scattered thoughts Feeling watched or contaminated Emotional numbness Speech blocks Body-mind disconnection
Ayurveda doesn’t just treat symptoms. It grounds, rebuilds, and reconnects. We can definitely help but first, I want you to know:
you are not alone in this. You have someone now who will walk this patiently with you, no matter how long it takes.
Whenever you’re ready, we’ll slowly build a plan one that begins with calming the nervous system and rebuilding your inner strength, not suppressing your voice.
Just breathe. You’re safe here. You can talk. I’m listening.
Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

I read your distress and the serious challenges you’re facing. It’s incredibly difficult to experience symptoms like extreme tiredness, severe anxiety, mouth spasms, and speech stuttering, especially when they may be related to a medication you’ve been taking for a long time.
It’s crucial to understand that I am an AI assistant and not a medical professional. I cannot provide medical advice, a diagnosis, or a treatment plan. The information I’m providing is for educational purposes only and should not replace a consultation with a qualified healthcare provider.
The symptoms you’re describing—mouth spasms and speech stuttering—can be related to a class of side effects from antipsychotic medications called extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS). A specific type of EPS is called tardive dyskinesia, which involves involuntary, repetitive body movements, often in the face and mouth. Another is akathisia, which is characterized by a feeling of inner restlessness and an inability to stay still, which can be a significant source of anxiety.
It is absolutely essential that you consult with your doctor or psychiatrist. Do not stop taking your medication on your own. Abruptly stopping or changing the dosage of antipsychotics can have serious consequences, including the return of original symptoms or even more severe side effects. Your doctor can help you in a number of ways:
Adjusting your dosage: They may be able to slowly and safely reduce your dosage to see if your symptoms improve.
Switching medications: They can discuss the possibility of switching you to a different antipsychotic medication, as some newer-generation drugs have a lower risk of causing these types of side effects.
Prescribing other medications: In some cases, a doctor might prescribe another medication to help manage the side effects, such as a beta-blocker for anxiety and akathisia, or specific medications to treat tardive dyskinesia.
Discussing non-medication interventions: Your doctor can also talk to you about non-medication strategies that might help with anxiety and other symptoms.
Your concern about “nano level contamination” of medication through air and water sounds very distressing. It’s important to discuss this with your doctor as well. They can help you understand the way these medications work in your body and address these specific fears.
Please make an appointment to speak with your healthcare provider as soon as possible. Your health and well-being are paramount, and they are the best resource to help you navigate these complex issues safely and effectively. If you feel you are in immediate danger or a crisis, please seek emergency medical help immediately.
