+1 to this. I don't know if it was depression for me but definitely been a period where I was in a rut. Everything seems to be going badly, relationships, romance, career. Because so many things needed "fixing", I didn't know where to start and was always overwhelmed. Then I try to change everything and end up not making much progress anywhere. What eventually got me out was just focusing on 1 thing in my life and make it better. That one small achievement fuels the next one and so on. Positive feedback loops (and negative ones) are powerful.
