Lalitkumar Doctor: Dear Mr. Lalit,I went through your query in detail and can understand your concern regarding your symptoms. Feeling lethargic, and irritable can be symptoms of underlying depression. It is more plausible especially since you are feeling stressed with your job currently.You should consult a psychiatrist for complete evaluation and initiating treatment. Ant-depressant medications like escitalopram would be helpful in controlling your symptoms. In addition you can consider relaxation techniques like deep breathing and progressive muscular relaxation which will help your relax and feel better.I do hope that I was able to answer your query. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
