Depression and anxiety
I feel very depressed lately. I feel like I have no reason to live. I have a lot of mood swings and I don't like to go out at all. I have started eating a lot and feel like I have wasted my life.

Hello dear,
The brief description provided by you here is highly suggestive of an ongoing depressive episode. Depressed mood, pessimistic ideas, mood swings, social isolation, increased appetite, lack of interest etc are all indicative of depression. Hence my suggestion for you is to please seek a consultation with a psychiatrist near you for comprehensive assessment and further management. Depression is a well treatable medical condition, and help can definitely be provided to you.
Some basic investigation may be required and a combination of medication and psychological intervention is likely to be required.
Hope this helps you. Best wishes for your health and future.
