Severe depression

Getting so much suitable thoughts.feeling lonely. Unable to focus on work.missing something but donno what

ADHD OR HSP

Hi I suffer from attention problems like when I turn my attention inwards my I get lost in thinking and fantasies and this used to happen when my brain is idle . The moment I turn attention inwards i have strong imagination and emotions. I feel this during walking ,while bathing and I don't observe surrounding environment. I have lot of curiousity and get overexcitement which makes me tired . I am perfectionist and huge procrastinator. Its like I am stuck in thinking and less or doing and I love doing gym and brisk walking h it regulates mh mood and male me calm . I know the best way to deactivate inner turbulence is to focus on the outside world. I dont know whether it is adhd or simply hsp . Because I have huge self awareness and I am mindful or introspective . I enjoy deep thinking as well .I have sensitive to rejection and hurt and stress easily and I run behind novelty like within the same domain is this adhd or emotional dysregulation as I have maladaptive daydreaming in the past

Delayed  my Work and Delayed My Future

Hello Doctor, I am a 25-year-old male currently preparing for job interviews while also working in a shift from 12:00 PM to 9:30 PM. I am also dealing with financial stress and family responsibilities. For the past few weeks, I have been facing difficulty with both focus and sleep. I find it hard to concentrate for long periods, get distracted easily, and often feel mentally fatigued. My sleep is also inconsistent — sometimes I take a long time to fall asleep, and other times I wake up feeling unrefreshed. Because of my work shift, my routine is slightly irregular, and I am not sure if that is contributing to the problem. I wanted to understand: 1. Whether this could be due to stress, anxiety, or my work schedule 2. If I should get any tests done 3. Whether medication is required or if lifestyle changes would be enough 4. How I can improve both focus and sleep naturally with my current schedule I do not have any known major medical conditions. Thank you.
