Hi, just as Rohag said depression can take so much away from you including motivation. So maybe focus a bit less on what you can't do for now and instead focus on what you can do It can be so overwhelming to think of everything you "should" be doing. For example with the condo if you can just clean (partially clean?) one room in the next five/six (?) days then that in itself is going to be a big achievement, and with work maybe "break down" tasks a bit more? Small steps......
Do you think maybe you could tell your family a little of what's going on for you though, perhaps they could support you a bit more?
As for the guy, maybe that girl was a friend/acquaintance (doesn't necessarily mean he's seeing her), depression can sometimes throw your perspective??
But if you are right, then just like you said- he's not good enough for you!- it may hurt now but much better longer term that he's gone from your life. His loss!! And more time for you to focus on you, right?!! Now that's what you need!!
Now right now, focusing on getting through this is as big a plan as any, so you do have a plan. And as you're coming through this you can be having even better, more realistic, more fulfilling, more meaningful plans than you did when you were younger. What really matters in life can change with age so with your maturity now, there can still be a whole new world out there.
But first, this.........It's good that you've tried different meds but sometimes it can take a while to find the right ones or right combinations for you. Just make sure you're keeping your doctor completely up-dated. And maybe they could refer you for therapy or counseling (or consult with your therapist/counselor if you have one???).
But for now, anything whatsoever you can do to make things a bit easier on yourself or feel just a little better!!???
