Depression & selfharming
I have been struggling from depression & anxiety for 5 years. I tried to fight them but it was really hard especially that no one understands what I feel. I feel sad and overwhelmed. I also feel worry, anxious, nusea, fatigue and dizzy. When the anxiety gets worse I feel like I want to harm myself. I scratched my arm and my legs to relieve. I need help. I want to get out of this condition. It makes me wish to die.

Feeling low, having crying spells, sleep and appetite disturbances, and difficulty in concentration and attention are some of the signs of Depression. Consult a Psychiatrist for a detailed assessment. It is likely with medication and counseling the symptoms will improve. If you are feeling suicidal or hopeless consult a Psychiatrist immediately.
