Hi,
Hope you are feeling better.
Anxiety and depression is something very common. You have to be determined that you can come out of it completely.
Try regular meditation in the morning. Apart from this, go out during the day time in the sunlight for sometime. Going out in the light eases depression.
Also, eat healthy and try listening to some of the happiness talks and motivational lectures.
Do not trap yourself in this shell and have a positive outlook in life.
Regular morning walk helps your body maintain a good health and a healthy mind.
Take good care of yourself.
