Hi,
Do you think that it could be the case that one of the reasons why you don't have the urge to change is that you basically haven't decided what it is that you want to accomplish? I can say for myself that the reason why I've tried different approaches to improving my mental health is because I certainly in the past have seen a huge difference between where my mental health was and where I wanted it to be (and thought that it realistically could be). And I'm not saying that all (or even most) of what I've done to try to improve my mental health has actually helped me to achieve my goal (though some of the things that I've tried have been somewhat helpful, in my opinion), but the reason why I tried different mental health treatments to begin with is because I had made it my goal to try to alleviate certain symptoms that were causing me a great deal of impairment and distress. Might it be the case for you that you don't seem to have much of an urge to try different things to bring about improvement in yourself because you haven't specifically decided what it is about yourself that you want to change? Maybe the answer to my question isn't necessarily a "yes," but I thought that I'd ask it in case not having decided exactly what it is about yourself that you'd like to improve upon might be one reason why you're not trying different things that might lead to improvement.
