I am struggling with anxiety and depression, and I'm trying to manage it through various methods such as exercise, diet, and therapy. However, I often feel like I'm hitting a brick wall and my efforts seem meaningless. I'm also concerned about the physical symptoms that seem to accompany my mental health issues. What can I do to better manage my anxiety and depression, and how can I address the physical symptoms that seem to be related?

I spit up gel-like mucus and have trouble at night with whistling coming out of my throat, especially if I sleep on my right side, which keeps me awake. I haven't used any medication for this, and my endoscopy was normal. The whistling occurs when I breathe out, not in. What causes this whistling, and what can I do to alleviate it?

I am on vacation and have noticed a slight itching on my penis after ejaculation. This has been occurring for a few weeks. I have not used any medication for it and have not seen a doctor yet. I have a history of shingles and am currently 49 years old. The itching is more noticeable after sexual activity or masturbation, but there is no burning or pain. What could be the cause of this itching, and what are the best and worst-case scenarios?

I have been experiencing pain and spasms in my lower chest and upper stomach area since yesterday around 6pm. The spasms were so strong that I was throwing up during the night. I took 2 Tylenol and was able to sleep, but I still feel the pain occasionally, with strong contractions happening about once an hour. I have not seen a doctor about this pain. I recently started a keto diet a month ago and lost 13lbs, and I'm unsure if this has anything to do with my symptoms. What could be causing this and what should I do?
