I’ll sound like an old man but…Go outside!

Steam and YouTube are good sources of entertainment but use them in moderation. Because they’re fleeting and ultimately unfulfilling. There are hundreds of other ways to spend your time.

Create something. If you like games, learn to program and create them. Start with something small and easy like a basic platformer in Game Maker Studio. When you only consume and create nothing, you actually create depression.

But that's the problem. You can't. You physically don't have enough energy and motivation to do anything. Everything is boring and when you force yourself to do something, it's shit. The problem is that you can't enjoy anything and just feel shit and bored all the time.

This used to be me until I got diagnosed with ADD. Medication pretty much solved the issue completely.

You haven't solved the issue, merely covered it up (at least if you plan taking that shit till the end of your miserable life).

You can call the issue solved if you feel happy without meds.

Sounds like you need some happy pills

You mean emotionless zombie pills
