I've been depressed for the last 5 years and I'm 23 years old now. I'm unemployed barely have any money, still living with my parents, can't find a girlfriend. I feel like I'm not meant to be in this world.

I can't motivate myself to do anything anymore. I also have to force myself to get up and out of bed in the morning.

Have you seen a therapist in those 5 years? If not you might want to go see one and they can get you on depression medications that can help you feel less depressed.

Don't give up on life and job searching. If you keep applying for jobs and calling back to check on the job application you'll likely eventually get a job.

You're only 23 and have a lot of years left for things to turn around for you.

I wish you the best and hope you're able to find a job.
