These symptoms can occur in depression or anxiety.
Detailed Answer:
Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries
I can understand your concern. The symptoms like feeling restlessness, hopelessness, depressed mood could occur due to depression or anxiety. In some individuals anxiety especially generalised anxiety result in such symptoms and which lead to depressive symptoms like sad mood, lack of interest in day to day routine, hopelessness.
If the symptoms are controllable and are not causing impairment in your social, personal and occupational functioning then there is no urgent need of treatment. If the symptoms are distressing and persistent then please consult a psychiatrist for evaluation. For mild depression medicines like SSRIs are used commonly. These medicines help to reduce the symptoms and help in normal functioning. These are safe medicines and are free of serious side effects and can be taken even for long durations of treatment also. So please visit a psychiatrist if needed.
Thanks, Hope this helps. Please don't hesitate to ask again for more doubts.
Take care
