My dear friend I feel very sorry over your health problems . But you have been also very strong as you have struggled quite well with all your problems. But now from your description it appears you are having depression which is quite common in parkinson. Kindly visit a psychiatrist or your neurologist to help you with antidepressants. Above all you need to have good support of friends and relatives. Think its a bad phase and will get over soon.
