Insomnia and depression
I am unable to sleep in the night, have tried some remedies like sleep stories, relaxing music et which helped initially, now it's of no use. I have lost interest in my day to day activities. I literally feel like doing nothing. It feels like everything is superficial and my existence really doesn't matter.
