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!

The ECG abnormalities described by you are non-specific and ay be of no significance. However, clinical correlation should always be made. This is best done by your physician. The difference in blood pressure under the circumstances is not significant. Please have your doctor review the ECG "abnormalities".
