You don’t care about your work because you’re depressed.
Same with everything else.
Your brain will show you opposite rationalizations if you’re really depressed.
This doesn’t mean you can’t influence it by changing external factors.
This means you need to take it seriously and find a good psychiatrist to help with it. Not random dudes on the internet who think their boredom is a depression and brag how they fight it with gym.
So, you're seeing a depression as an external "illness" that can only be cured by pharmeceutical compounds?
I can only speak for myself, but to me that was dangerous advice. it removed accountability for my actions. the only thing that helped was getting into new actions. actively changing small things.
i was diagnosed with severe depression more than once in my life. things started to change for me only when I stopped believing this narrative.
a psychiatrist will give you pills, a psychologist will talk to you with a "playbook", both will try do bring some predefined indexes of clinical depression down. nothing of this is tailored to your personality.
because you mentioned it: gym does not change everything miraculously (neither do pills), but it taught me that my actions have significant effect. going through a perceived hamster wheel all the time, that realization was a big step forward to me. i did things that i did not want (like meeting people, applying for jobs, etc.). that helped, and it gets easier with each step.
ymmv
i guess for most people this comes down to connection: social, romantic, whatever.
best you can do is leave the house, interact with people, (re)connect with friends and family. no shortcuts.
Would you help me make it work?

How do I source it? cd remt-docker-venv/
source bin/activate
python --version

The ship is sinking.
Remember the beer app on the first iPhone. Playing with Sensors and graphics on a new device was just fun. Just like tinkering with the Raspberry has been.
Then, this got commercialized and optimized for money to the ground. To me, as sad it might be, "tech" and "web" has just become a mature market.

I'm European, so genuinely curious why that optimism faded away in the US
Here's the correct link to the repo:
For me, talking about my childhood to someone that was non-judgemental helped me far more than lifting weight. But that was for me. I'm glad you found your way.
Happy that you found your way, too.
