Counseling: is strongly recommended, and reaching out here is a step in getting better but you need counseling and possible medication. Your doctor can make a referral for you that will be a good fit. Regular exercise releases chemicals in your body that help your mood and inprove sleep. Street drugs or alcohol make things worse. Focus on a postive thought and repeat often: "I am feeling better today."
