Detailed Answer:
Hello thanks for asking from HEALTH CARE MAGIC
I can understand your problem and I will try to help you in getting out of your symptoms. You are a young girl with multiple symptoms. You have symptoms of depression especially in evening, poor social interaction (don't like to talk with friends), feelings of hopelessness. You have feeling that you are stuck in a hole and can't escape from it. You have poor family support and are under severe distress.
As you have mentioned in your query also these are symptoms of depression and possibly moderate to severe depression. These symptoms are causing significant impact on your work, social and personal life. I would advise you to consult a psychiatrist for help in depression.
A lot of individuals with such symptoms improve even without need of medicines. Cognitive therapy by a good therapist help to find out abnormal faulty cognitive distortions and thought processes and help to correct them. Life style changes also have proven role in depression. I would advise you to-
- Have good sleep at least seven hours a day. Don't sleep excessively continuously.
- Exercise daily. Exercise will help to release endorphins and these help to improve depressive mood.
- Have diets rich in proteins and carbohydrates and low in fat. This diet help to improve tryptophan in brain which help to boost mood.
- Omega 3 Fatty acid soft gels are used in depression. These soft gels help to improve brain pathways and improve depressive symptoms.
- Diets rich in Walnuts, fish oils, XXXXXXX nuts help to improve omega 3 fatty acids in brain and help in depression.
- Try to look life in positive aspect. Don't blame yourself for any mistake instead always think to correct everything. Yoga and meditation will help to reduce bad symptoms.
- Listen good music whenever you feel depressed. If you don't like to talk with friends then read some good book or do some constructive work. Don't sit alone in evening.
Try to follow these life style changes and you will surely improve. If symptoms are intolerable or persist then there is need for proper medicinal treatment.
Medicines like SSRIs as sertraline, Escitalopram will help to improve your symptoms and will decrease depression. Modafinil can increase your confidence and help in depression. Visit a psychiatrist for prescription of these drugs.
Thanks, hope this helps you. If you have more doubts you can ask again in follow up question.
