Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello thanks for asking from HCM

The feelings like not having friends, inability to share feelings, not getting to anyone, depressed mood should not be ignored. You are staying at Mumbai and are from Assam. Both have different language and different cultures so it can be a possibility that such symptoms could be occurring due to due to these reasons. Try to call your friends and family frequently and don't feel alone. Listen good music and focus on your aim. These symptoms can occur due to home sickness. But if symptoms persist and cause significant effects on your personal life visit a psychiatrist.
Mild depression may result in loss of confidence and can present with such symptoms. Short course of SSRIs like Fluoxetine, Paroxetine can help to improve symptoms.
Try relaxation exercises and if possible join a gym, this will result in diversion of your mood to constructive things and your symptoms should improve.

Thanks, hope this helps.
