Hello XXXX

Thanks for posting your query here.

I can understand your concern and I agree with you that you need to do something about your issues.

The most important thing to do is to first get the depression and stress under control, I understand that it is not easy, you will need to identify the cause for your depression and stress, try to resolve the problem by thinking logically, you should consult a psychiatrist to help you understand your problem well, once you deal with the depression and stress, you can concentrate on getting back in shape, as continued depression and stress will not let you get back in shape.

Please do consult a psychiatrist to help you deal with your situation.

Please do write back if you need any more help from me.

Wishing you all the best and speedy recovery.

Warm regards.
