Feeling of anxiety
About a year ago, I was feeling stressed about my work. I would make up conversations and situations in my mind constantly. I had reduced talking to people and only kept thinking. I had a feeling of impending doom like something bad was going to happen. I got a sick, sinking feeling in my stomach. I used to cry for little things and sometimes suddenly. I experienced heavy breathing and numbness in my hands. I also started getting thoughts of hurting myself to escape everything and everyone. I then quit my job. For the past one year I have been doing everything I like. I am self-employed now. But these same feelings are triggered back now even after changing the situation. I keep imagining possible conversations, have negative thoughts, and feel anxious and fearful. It is exhausting. Sometimes I get afraid for no reason. I feel unrested and tired always along with acidity. I feel disconnected. It’s like, I am happy but not really feeling happy. My mood too changes very quickly.

Depression, fear of failu
Dear Doc,
My friend had a very rough childhood. She had grown up by taking responsibility of her family. Never lived along with her family. Always lived in hostels and Pg. (Unmarried)
These days she has started gaining weight. Looks depressed always. Forgets simple
things often. Sometimes very motivated and in couple of minutes her mood changes.
Over thinking, fear of failure is killing her. Always try to avoid crowd. She always makes an effort to be normal but ends
up being alone again. Kindly help us to know if she is suffering from depression?

Depression and insomnia
Hi Doctor, I'm suffering from insomnia since about 3 weeks and I've not slept at all for about 4 days in these 3 weeks. It will started with 1 sleepless night which was not a concern. But after that everyday it is causing anxiety and I began to worry how will I sleep tonight. Even though I got sleep that night, still next day I'll worry about how will it happen tonight etc.. Every time I go to bed various thoughts start coming to mind and keep my awake, which in turn makes me lot tired next day. I've lost interest in everything else which I used to enjoy before 3 weeks and always the same thing keeps going on in my head worrying about sleep. My family doctor has now prescribed etizolam 0.5mg every night before sleeping. It helps a bit to get about 4-5 hours of sleep but not much. How should I break this cycle of insomnia and depression. I'm only 23 now. Please advise how can I stop constantly worrying about it and stop these thoughts from coming during sleeping
