Brief Answer: You may have depression Detailed Answer: Hi Thanks for using healthcare magic. I, Dr Abhishek Kapoor, would help you in this query. Low mood, easy irritability, sleep disturbance, decrease appetite, tiredness, forgetfulness, decrease concentration etc are signs and symptoms of depression. If you have all these symptoms for more than two weeks, then you need to consult a psychiatrist for proper diagnosis and treatment. You need few antidepressant or benzodiazepine in treatment. Due to history of excessive bleeding, also get your blood investigation for hemoglobin done to rule out anemia. Anemia also leads to physical tiredness. In case, you have more query, you can ask.
