Hello Practo user Your problem seems to stem from overthinking and experiencing high levels of anticipatory anxiety, that further lead to the experience of physiological or bodily symptoms like shortness of breath, disturbed sleep, and your poor health. The reasons and causes of such behavior, usually rest in past experiences which can be explored with a clinical psychologist to identify them, understand them, and work through them in an effective way. It would be a good idea to take a consultation and work on the experience of anxiety to work through other bodily issues you face too.

I understand your predicament and would like to make a few suggestions that might help you. I want you to know that with awareness of how the mind works and how thoughts are generated, you will get better at dealing with them. Today, the mind is fixated on something. Tomorrow it could be obsessed about another person/event/topic. Understanding the nature of the mind and how thoughts are generated will help you deal with them. The nature of the Mind, which in simple terms we experience as thoughts, is such that, it will keep shifting its focus from one object/topic/event to another. Ii always needs something to hold on to. Another important characteristic of the Mind is this - You will either have thoughts about the past or the future. This will keep alternating. Try thinking about the present moment - you will see that the Mind and 'Now' can never coexist. The Mind has 3 states in general. Sometimes, you may find yourself having very positive, inspiring thoughts. During other times, you may find yourself very emotional, or all charged for action. Whereas during other times, you may feel very lethargic, dull or lazy. These states will keep alternating. Having understood the nature of the mind, the first step towards mental health is to become aware of your thoughts. Learning to be an observer of your thoughts, learning to observe them from a distance like clouds passing in the sky. The next step is knowing that you have the power to choose which thought you wish to focus on and act on and exercising that power. With practice, you will have better mastery over this process. Having thoughts about one being worthless and hopeless about life in general is also something that plagues everybody from time to time. Trust me, even if everything was perfect, you will still find some shortcomings somewhere and brood about it. Tension or anxiety is a physiological response which is again part of being human. It is normal to have such thoughts about any situation. As mentioned above, with practice, you will learn to focus and entertain only those thoughts are healthy enough to be acted upon. Whenever you feel overwhelmed by thoughts, just bring your focus back to your breath and take a few relaxing breaths. You will automatically be able to focus on the task at hand and do what is required. Whatever you feed your mind through your sense organs will be replayed to you as thoughts. Be conscious of this. Take care of the content you feed your mind - the kind of books you read, the websites you visit, the kind of music you listen to, the kind of food you eat, the kind of company you keep ( "You are an average of five people you spend most of your time with" ) Ask yourself : Where would I like to see myself ten years from now? What should I do today to reach there ten years from now? What would I do if I knew I wouldn't fail? What would I do if I weren't afraid? No matter how impossible the answers might seem, I want you to know that you can and will make them possible. Take the first step. The rest will follow. A beautiful future awaits you. Take ownership of every time, take responsibility for it and confidently work towards your dreams and aspirations. One day you will thank these dark moments for being the fuel for your success. Exercise daily and make sure you eat healthy. Have faith in yourself. You are capable of dealing with this. You are going to do just fine. Take care.

Hello dear, thanks for reaching out here, I think you have some disturbance in you, some scaredness of something which is making you think for most of the things, sometimes if any person has quite expectations, then they tend to think minute of work they do.. if you are assuming negative about results of work you do, fear of that making you think a lot.. As you have mentioned vitamin deficiency will also be reason for this situation.. First you know your expectations and other side know your disturbance of what and why? 2. This disturbance is making you think and you feel anxious, fear, breathlessness and others. 3. Fix small goals and appreciate your minute achievement which will make you build confidence, as it is lacking in you.. 4. As you have habituated this kind of life, change pattern on day to day work, if possible add new activities( cooking, gardening painting, books, play batmitton)  in your routine, rather then monotonous. 5. As it is pandemic situation now, especially in your place, it's naturally make you more worry. It's ok start with breathing exercises, which calms and proper diet helps to improve your immunity along with your sleep.
Next Steps
simultaneously take the support of psychologist to guide for well being.. take care stay positive and safe 🙂
