I feel stuck, numb, and nothing feels enjoyable anymore. Any advice?

Hi everyone,

I’m writing here because I honestly don’t know what to do anymore.

Lately, most days feel empty. Nothing feels enjoyable. Things I used to do or tried to do—like running, swimming, watching shows, scrolling social media—don’t really make me feel better or excited. Even when I sleep 8 hours, I wake up tired and not refreshed.

My college is off for some days right now, and being at home feels really hard. Time passes so slowly, and I feel bored and sad almost all day. Usually I even used to go to college just to pass time, even though I didn’t really have close people there.

Sometimes when my thoughts get too much, I write things like “I don’t want to l…” and that scares me a bit. I talked to someone about how I feel, but it didn’t really help, and I still feel the same.

I don’t know if this is depression, burnout, loneliness, or something else. Has anyone felt like this before? What helped you get through it? Any advice would really mean a lot right now.

Thank you for reading.
