Need to examine: Are you overweight? if so, losing weight would help. It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you and your symptoms warrant evaluation by a physician. You may be depressed and you should discuss that with your doctor as there are effective remedies for depression. It would help to exercise regularly, at least 150 minutes/week.
