A 30-year-old married male feels hopeless and worthless most of the time. He experiences frequent, intrusive thoughts that he is not good enough, despite personal and professional successes. He tries to overcompensate for his thoughts by taking on more than he can handle, which leads to failure and furthers his feelings of inadequacy. He is exhausted all the time, has trouble sleeping and concentrating, and has lost weight over the past few months; food just doesn't taste as good as it used to. His wife suggests that he seek help after finding him crying. Which of the following would be the most likely diagnosis?
A) Obsessive compulsive disorder
B) Generalized anxiety disorder
C) Depression
D) Bipolar disorder
