Hi,
Thanks for writing to healthcaremagic.

If all symptoms are present that you mentioned ,they present for more then 15 days in absence of any general medical condition then it may be major depressive disorder.
You have not mentioned details about your illness which is very needed for perfect diagnosis.like ,is this 1st episode in your life,are there symptoms of being high for long periods ,do you have any substance use disorder like alcohol or opioid or else.

consult psychiatrist for your illness. SSRIs and other antidepressant group drugs will be quiet helpful in treating the disease.psychotherapy can also be helpful in mild to moderate depression.
Hope I have answered your query,
Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
