Working as a senior developer. Dealing with anxiety and depression. Unable to focus on work and slipping due dates. Already made a bad impression on the entire team. Don't know how to proceed? Is it a good approach to discuss such things with the manager?

You should seek help from a counsellor and not your manager. Mental health is still a stigma in our country so opening up to him might have bad consequences. Once you start the treatment (counselling/meds) then you can expect your productivity to go up as well and then you can tell him/her. First aid would be to get help from where the help can be given which might not be your manager.

You can seek help from a professional, which is the ideal solution unless the company, team and work culture is the cause.
