Hi,I have been having trouble with stress and basically dealing with life. I have been having trouble sleeping, I have been gaining weight and have been having headaches every day. I have no energy and have been having trouble working because of all of this.  I am wondering if this could be caused by depression or if I should look further into it.Thanks
Hi, I can understand the distress that you seem to be having due to your symptoms. The symptoms that you have mentioned in your query are highly suggestible of depressive disorder. I would suggest that IOUs seek a psychiatric consultation for your symptoms. Treatmnet with anti-depressants medications like sertraline would beneficial. In addition, you should start exercising daily which will help you relax. Sharing your emotions with someone or writing diary on a daily basis could also help you de-stress and relax. Hope you found this information helpful. Best wishes.
