I think I suffer with depression?

I'm taking a sick day which I feel awful about but I couldn't 'do' today, i was in tears, unmotivated. I worry a lot and I am anxious over small things and occasionally have a panic attack. I find it hard to get out of bed even though I sleep loads. I find going to work really hard sometimes. I have no hobbies, no friends of my own and no motivation to change these things. I watch a lot of TV and I drink daily (not lots). I just don't care about much and I feel empty. Somedays are better than others but today is a really bad day.

Should I see a doctor? or am I just a lazy wally who needs to just pull it together?!

Firstly, Turn the TV off. It's mind deadening. Get out into Nature. Mother Earth can heal you. Be Kind and Gentle with yourself. Accept the Good days and the Bad. Either way they don't last. Exercise and meditation would help. Try to Love You, and patiently take One Day at a Time.
