Im also very fidgety and i have times when i cant breathe or just start cryig for no reason or all reasons, really. Can you please help me figure out what s wrong with me?
Dear Kimberly, I went through your query and can understand what you must be going through. Feeling sad and irritable, not able to enjoy things and anxiety are symptoms suggestive of a depressive episode. You should consult a psychiatrist for undergoing complete evaluation of your symptoms and initiating treatment. Treatment with anti-depressant Chat Doctor.  These medications are slow to act, and you will have to be patient about the response which will need at least 2 weeks after starting the medications. In addition to medications, you should also start exercising daily. It will help you relax and feel better. I do hope I was able to help with your query. Best wishes.
