Dear mam
Feeling low, lack of interest in things that you liked doing before,feeling hopeless,low Energy levels and poor self esteem, anxiety, disturbed sleep and appetite are all symptoms of depression. Depression is a treatable medical condition and is caused by certain neuro biological changes in the brain. Though stress can precipitate depression, often depression occurs without any obvious reason. 10 MG lonazep is a high dose of lonazep and it needs to be monitored and titrated under supervision of a psychiatrist. Please see a psychiatrist for a detailed evaluation and proper treatment. Things may seem bad at present, but I am certain you will get better with right treatment and support.
Do not hesitate to consult a psychiatrist in person.
Thanks
