It sounds to me like anxiety.Iv'e suffered from it for years and its not fun.Either is depression and you can have both , they are often diagnosed together.

Maybe see your Dr. regarding anti anxiety medication.Just be sure to check what he may give you as some can raise bg.

Heres something that may(may not) provide some clarity in what your'e dealing with. illness depression symptoms&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5Mi0voag3wIVCkVpCh37AQV6EAAYASAAEgLyofD_BwE

We are only guessing and probably adding to your worry. The only way to know is to talk to your doctor and do exactly as they say. They may recommend medication and all medications do not work the same way for all people.
Your doctor can help you to feel better about yourself, your life and everyday living. It is up to you to seek help.

The first step in feeling better is spending more time in the sun and getting exercise. Speaking to others helps a lot. Give the body a chance to fix itself. You can also try CBT to get out of unhelpful thinking habits. Medication should IMO be a last resort.
