There a couple ways to go, there are professional treatment like meds and in med resistant cases, ECT. Talk to a psychiatrist about those options.

For lifestyle changes, you might consider getting adequate sleep, eating well balanced diet preferably not high in carbs, walking, exercise, yoga and talking with people every day. A phone call to friends and family can be very uplifting.

Feel free to attend the Depression Chat Thursday 8PM EDT in the chatrooms under Depression Anxiety Chat room.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I eat a clean diet and do yoga daily at home with my kids, I don't have family or friends so I think that is a huge part of my problem at the moment. I really struggle to meet people as I think I have anxiety about leaving the house and social situations.
I left an abusive relationship and my children are young so don't have any time for myself these days, my 3 year old has special needs also and is very difficult at times.
I injured my wrist and have not been able to work since and my boss bullied me into resigning so workers comp can't help me now either. My doctor said he couldn't write me a note to cover me for employment insurance so now am unable to find a job or get any income.

This morning I woke up and felt really scared and overwhelmed, while trying to get the kids ready for school I had a panic attack. I cried and shouted at my kids and really scared them and myself. I managed to get an emergency doc appointment for this morning so am going to discuss with them some options.
I feel so scared and alone. It's an awful feeling.. I haven't felt this way for a long time.
