Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

May be you have organic depressive or personality disorder. In that case, you should a psychiatrist for proper mental evaluation. That would help to make proper diagnosis and treatment would depend upon the diagnosis. Better to take one of your friend with you for detailed information about you while making diagnosis.

Thanks
