Brief Answer:
Psychiatric counselling needed

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

the problem you have well suits into the diagnosis Dysthymia. There are no medications to change the thought process. You may have to consult a Psychiatrist who can arrange counselling session and conduct Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).

CBT is the only available way which with the help of a counselor you can get out of these thoughts permanently. Do not take any medications as they only sedate you and present with huge risk of recurrence of your problem once you stop them.

Consult a Psychiatrist at the earliest. The CBT treatment does take time but its very effective and you will lead life without any trouble.

Wish you good health.
