Hi, kindly meet a psychiatrist... this looks like depression with borderline personality traits... but cant be sure without a detailed personal interview. Medicines and therapy both help largely. Coping skills need to be learnt, awareness and insight is important to handle this.

Loss of interest, decreased concentration and attention, feeling low and disturbed sleep or appetite are some of the signs of depression. Consult a psychiatrist who will assess you in detail. If you are feeling suicidal or hopeless, seek professional help immediately. Try some relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation and deep breathing. Indulge in hobbies. Spend time with people close to you.
