Suggest Treatment For Nervousness And Depression

I'm 50 yrs old. I recently was laid off from work but found new employment for which I always feel overwhelmed and unable to fullfill my job duties. That might be in my head because I've been able to keep up with a lot of overtime and anxiety and nervousness. I find myself crying uncontrolably in the early morning hours. I am single and live alone so I can scream and crying until my hearts content. I'm wondering if I have depression or symtoms of a heart attack.
