Accepted Answer

Evaluation: Frankly, it would be inappropriate for doctors to diagnose  you based on the information you provided and without an actual assessment. It sounds like you are feeling miserable. I encourage you to seek evaluation from your primary care provider to look for medical causes for these symptoms. If that evaluation is normal, then a comprehensive psychiatric assessment would be in order.
