Dear User,

Thanks for using health care magic.

What you described is suggestive of depression following stress of economic loss. The onset of depression is more common at your age in compare to young age. I understand your financial problem but you need to see a psychologist or psychiatrist. As the symptoms you described indicates that there is moderate to severe intensity of depression which often requires medication for treatment.

So at this time my advice includes.
1. Adequate rest
2. Nutritious food
3. Good sleep
4. And help from a psychiatrist

'Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help".
