Depression? I am the same. You need to do something meaningful, happiness will always be out of reach so the next best thing is the satisfaction of doing something important.

I too don’t feel happy anymore, either i’m sad or numb. Does a lack of happiness have other causes or is it exclusive for depression? This if interesting information, and also helpful for my first psychiatrist appointment. Another thing i wonder is wether anti-depressants affect this and motivation im general?

In my case it's schizophrenia, I think it has something to do with dopamine.

You're a kid.
If I play a game for 10 mins I get a feeling of mild nausea and boredom from just the thought of playing any game for months after that - my brain has matured.

It’s because you are using it as a backup because you have nothing else to do. Start doing something productive like reading or exercising

I've been playing video games for about 25 of my 28 years and I've noticed a declined interest for playing video games. I used to be able to spend all day playing video games, but these days, I can hardly get past playing 5 hours without losing interest.

I just see it as my normie genes kicking in.
