Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor and discuss if you may be depressed. Counter-intuitive as it may seem, exercise may help. Start with low intensity exercise such as walking and gradually increase the intensity as tolerated. Drink more water. Wish you good health!

Brain outcomes: We have observed a number of neurological-psychological sequelae lasting weeks to several months following resolution of the acute infection. Some of your symptoms raise questions of cognitive issues, but dissociative symptoms and depressive concerns need to be sorted out. Would first seek out a psychiatrist to consult and possibly undergo psychological test battery. Then, neurology.
