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!

Hi have a mild shortness of breath and a burning sensation in my chest. I have a lot of phlegm with my wet cough that gets worst at night. I am not doing exercise currently since my body is acing and muscle pains. I don't have any fewer.
