You could be suffering from seasonal affective disorder, depression being common in winters. Make sure you get enough sun exposure, keep physically active and follow a proper routine. For medications, you will need a proper consultation. Kindly seek a consultation soon. Wishing you good health.

Hello. Weather does affect mood and anxiety may increase during winters. Counseling can help you manage the anxiety you are experiencing. A counselor can also facilitate you by noticing the triggers and help you with specific techniques to suit your needs. I hope this helps.
