anxiety:
short term: benzos
long term: nutrition changes, no drugs/alcohol, alternative medication (has less side effects)

depression:
short term: take a break from any unncessary work, see doctor for possible ssris, snris meds.
long term: go outside in the sun light, eat better

joint pain: see doctor, try Turmeric, massage, anti-pain medications (but I would be careful with this).

I dont know details, so my suggestions are very limited.
