Sir, it is saddening to see that you need to take so many medicines. Ofcourse medicines shall help you to lift your mood, or calm your nerves, control your blood pressure, help you to sleep but along with it it is very essential or most important to reorganize your lifestyle. It shall be a great challenge but gradually with little baby steps you can achieve it. I will try to list out the things that you should focus and help you understand that depression and anxiety are by-products of our inability to cope with stress/bad experience/trauma/lack of social skills/low emotional quotient/past experiences/bad relationships it could be anything which a counseling psychologist shall be able to help you with. Hence do seek counseling along with medication. Gradually when you pick up the skills, understand yourself better you shall require lesser and lesser amount of medicines. Here are the few things that you should definitely do: 1. Eat healthy food: fibres, green veg, broccoli, carrots, beans, fresh fruits, nuts etc. Along with curd, paneer. Avoid fried/fast food, chips, cold drinks, alcohol 2. Do exercise or some rigorius physical activity daily-jogging, running, yoga, breathing exercises, general body moving exercises 3. Maintain a social life where you meet people talk with them, take interest in conversations social skill development helps in resolving interpersonal problems 4. Spend quality time with family and friends 5. Spend some time during the day in one activity of your interest-gardening, music, dance, painting, solving a puzzle, sudoku, anything that helps you to unwind and destress. 6. Pay attention to your thinking patterns, are they self-critical, or negative and unstoppable? All the above shall definitely help you in coming out of depression/anxiety and help you to calm and relax and confident. Wish you all the best!
