Are you sure you are not depressed? Depression isn't the "I'm very sad" meme that TV and movies makes it out to be, at least not for everyone. Having nothing wrong but just not being happy and having limited motivation is absolutely one way it can manifest.
Or it could be ADHD or a plethora of other things.
So you'll get the same advice as anyone else who feels generally bad - talk to a doctor. Maybe there is a medical thing going on. Maybe there is a mental thing going on. Ask a couple professionals to evaluate you, and maybe you'll find a path to improve things.

- monknomo 2y agoIt sure is pernicious. It amazes me how much the brain can lie to you like that. And really, when you consider the spectrum of mental illness, anhedonia is almost on the milder side. Of course, it doesn't feel that way at all when it really gets going
- melbourne_mat 2y agoAgreed. You say you're not depressed but actually when your describe how you feel it sounds a lot like depression. It might be a good idea to talk to a doctor about it.
