Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I suggest you not to worry too much. Anxiety and depression are common when you are having chronic pain. You should be able to understand that these are common at this hour and they will resolve themselves in the due course. I suggest counseling and psychotherapy for you.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. K. V. Anand
