I went through depression from 24 to roughly 28. It was a slippery slope, first I would attribute some genuine reason for feeling low and then I would invent reasons.
Added with low self esteem, disconnectedness, zero social life. (I am usually not that kind of person, I generally attract people easily in a social setup).
I cried at nights, lot of sleepless nights. Just drifting through. Lost some of my precious prime time on that. Feeling worthless (I was doing extremely well at work) and suicidal thoughts as well.
Life changes to a better state sooner or later. Now I am married to a beautiful person for 6 years. My friends and family come to me when they feel bad about some issue. That’s the full 180 degree transformation.
My point is it will happen to you as well. You are too young now. Being human is precious, never entertain thoughts about throwing it away. It’s just temporary stage in your life. Life will turn for better. Much better than your own expectations.
Meantime as others said - do physical workout. Mind will come under control when you work your body out.
Meditate.
If spending time with your age folks is draining you, pick some of the matured ones or spend time with older folks or help kids through some program.
Please don’t compare your life with anyone else especially through social media lens. Most likely they may not be true as people project.
Volunteer.
You are too young to judge your own life. You have a lot more things in store in your life. Definitely talk to some older folks who had seen it all, you will get a different perspective about life.
If you are not harming anyone or yourself, you are already a great person.
Remember someday someone else would be in need of you to lift them up. Be there for them.
