It appears that your chronic stress and anxiety are causing physical symptoms. In addition to treatment for your high cholesterol & gastritis, I recommend consulting a mental health professional for stress management coaching..

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!
