Hi

I understand your concern.

Anxiety and depression are due to physical illness.

Treatment of depression and anxiety usually not require.

It will improve with your physical condition.

Sticky lips are due to mucous secretion as part of cough expectorant.

This condition can be treated with antibiotic like azithromycin or levofloxacin along with cough syrup.

Take proper treatment and get well soon

Thank you.
Take care.
