How to Stop Hair from Shedding?

Shy
My hair has been shedding like crazy lately. It doesn't matter whether I comb or just touch it. It looks and feels thinner but I don't see any patches.It has been shedding for over a year now but never this bad. I have also noticed little broken bits recently but this is nowhere near as bad as the shedding. Can you please advise?
