I dont know why im so uninterested in everything. I think im just deeply depressed
Basically, im a guy, 25. I work while im also studying, trying to get my degree. My dad has no job currently so its up to me and mom. Everything's been so hard. Firstly, i was always a loner, not by choice, no, but thanks to my social anxiety. I believe that it started because of some childhood trauma + the fact i never had a good economic situation.
Thankfully im now much better regarding my anxiety but i feel like I've been emotionally/socially stunted as a consequence. So now i dont really have many friends (if any), i have 0 social skills and just generally feel really lonely. One of my only sources of human connection is my online partner. Meanwhile my job is very boring and lonely too. I'm the only employee at an office.
Honestly... I'm so done with this life I've been living. I've lost the drive to study, to put time on my hobbies, on talking to my family (I'm not very close to anyone anyways)... I really don't know what to do. It feels as if nothing will ever get better. I know i need to get my degree asap and find a much better job but how? How, when i can barely get out of bed in the morning? How can i find the strength to keep going?
Thanks for reading this.
