Thank you for asking the question
CT scan or MRI can detect if there is a stroke, bleeding inside the brain or any other structural abnormality. Depression and anxiety are usually not related to any structural problem in the brain but these problems are usually secondary to unpleasant experiences or social stresses. Therefore, you should go and see a doctor, and get help from a psychiatrist, depression is a treatable condition and most of the people do not get help for this and this progresses to severe levels. therefore, kindly get help,
best regards
