How Can Depression, Low Appetite And Sleep Disturbances Be Treated?

I feel sad. All the time. I sleep for a regular amount of time but its always very bad sleep. When i wake up in the morning, my chest feels heavy. I just feel empty inside. I just went through a breakup that left me feeling insecure about myself. Sometimes i find my self reminiscing on my relationship and crying and other times i find myself pointing out my flaws and crying. I eat once a day usually and sometimes i have to force myself to eat and sometimes i dont. I do consume marijuana more frequently because i feel it numbs me of my pain temporarily.
