Depressed /sad
I have not been sleeping in night from last 2 month.. Its more than that actually. Tried fixing it maintaining a routine but still failed. And now i have been searching for job its been more than two months. And mostly it happens to me in the night too i keep scrolling the online job portals and keep applying. But nothing till date. I can't sleep mostly apart from that there are days when i am alone i cry. Last night it was more of anxiety attack because i couldnt stop crying.. The thing is i cant talk to my family or friends about this. I tried meditation exercise good diet reading books but still it no change sometimes i feel everything is worthless.

Hi
It looks like you are stressed about your job and it is making you feel upset. You are stressed to an extent that you are not able to sleep well. You are not able to talk about your anxieties with your family and friends. You have also tried many techniques to feel calm. Do not worry you can talk about the things that are making you feel anxious with a psychologist. Talking to a psychologist will help you and you can talk about thoughts and feelings that are bottled up inside. Counseling is a safe space to talk about anything that is bothering you.
Next Steps
Consult a psychologist.

With whatever information you have given I have a few things for you to try. 1. Remember it’s just a phase and it shall pass. 2. Talk it out with someone, else overthinking and repression will lead to more anxiety. Don’t think your family and friends can’t help. 3. Overthinking in your head will lead to negative thoughts and discussion will lead to opportunities and possibilities.
Don’t worry about the sleep. Work on a good diet and exercise. And your job is coming your way, be patient.
Next Steps
See a Psychologist. Talking will help. I can help you too.
Else just seek social support and see.
Health Tips
It’s ok to feel demotivated , it’s apart of life but not the entire life. Wait for your silver lining. Things shall improve soon. Patience and persistence shall help. Have faith !

Hi... This is primarily due to cognitive anxiety. You are overthinking about various issues in your life and anticipating a negative outcome.
Sleep is one of the first things that get disturbed when under tremendous stress or anxiety. Your job condition will get better after sometime but this excessive anxiety and fear is causing you panic and sleepless nights.
This can be easily dealt with Counselling using therapeutic techniques like Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT). It will take 15-20 Sessions on Weekly basis.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist

Hi. I understand you are going through tremendous anxiety. There is always a reason for it. Our subconscious mind holds on to lot of limited conditioning coming from the past. Since this data lies in mind with the form of thoughts, emotions and neuropathways. It's extremely difficult for you, alone to change. You do need help. Sometimes superficial techniques don't work. Also, distraction can be an escape mechanism for inability to face what lies buried in subconscious mind.
Next Steps
Please approach an experienced therapist.
Health Tips
Do keep your practices which you feel help on. But make sure, they're not an escape mechanism.
