If the feeling of low is persistent and extends to all spheres of life. If you feel a lack of interest or motivation in previously enjoyed activities it maybe depression.
Basically when one gets more negative thoughts and they become overwhelming ie when we are not able to counter them that could also be depression.
Talking about it or writing out your negative thoughts could help to identify it and then you could meet some professional.

I understand your situation. You seem to be suffering from depressive symptoms including feeling low, lonely and worthless. However information regarding your sleep, hunger, energy levels and concentration at whatever you do would be more helpful to decide the severity of your condition. It is easily manageable with appropriate treatment. Some counselling sessions along with medical help also might be useful for you. My clinic is at OMR chennai. I would also be more than happy to help you with that if you are looking for online assistance. Discussions will be held confidential. You can directly consult with me through Practo as needed. Online chat consultation is also available.
