But it is true.
 
Yes, you will probably not be happy tomorrow, if you have unipolar depression. However, you do have the capability to be as happy as you were before your depression, after it is over.
 
I posted this about eleven months ago. Read it if you want, and you can see how depressed I once was. I am certainly not perfect now, but I have definitely improved since then.

I did not mean to confuse you. Unipolar depression is just known as depression. I specified it as unipolar depression because if it was bipolar, there would be no accurate indicator of your mood tomorrow.
 
Whatever you have, I hope that you feel better as soon as possible. Not necessarily immediately, but soon.

Thank you. It’s effecting so many things. I want to feel my love for my SO again. I still love them, but I don’t feel it…I’m not sure how to explain. It wasn’t like this just last week. I can’t even pet my dog and feel comfort. Even looking at my puppy doesn’t comfort me. Video games aren’t doing anything either.

Maybe you heard of some or all of these before but here are a few things to try:
 
1: Breathe slow but deep off and on for 5 - 15 minutes;
 
2: Think of larger events where people found themselves overwhelmed yet came through;
 
3: Watch Rescue 911 on Youtube, most episodes have good ends like the one where a runaway bus was stopped.

I’m trying. You don’t understand this whole thing makes it feel like my love is slipping away and I know it’s not. I never stopped loving her. But I can’t feel comforted by even talking right now.

We’ve been through so much together. Why are the things I enjoy failing me now. My dog, my love, my family, video games. Why.

I believe that the word to explain this is anhedonia. It is a symptom, not a disease.
 
I do not feel a lot of pleasure from anything that I do (except eating dessert; I have a sweet tooth), but from what you have said, it seems like you have it to a much stronger extent than I do.
 
Things used to be very alluring to me. I could listen to music, watch MLP, watch various animes, play video games, occasionally develop crushes, and more while feeling great. For the first two, I would sometimes cry and laugh from pleasure. Since I have not felt love toward anybody in about a year-and-a-half, I have been debating whether or not I could be defined as borderline-asexual.

I’ve had this too; MLP’s not as fun to me now as it was in 2011 but I still find various songs (not just in MLP) to be just as great as they were even earlier. Maybe this happens as part of life’s ways; maybe it’s like getting tired of a food that you’ve had for 2 weeks straight and you’re simply “full” of a recreation or whatever so it’s time to do something else (gently, of course.) All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy but all play and no work invites rust. I don’t think I nailed everything here, maybe you can find something useful here but it might not be for each person’s current individual need.

The music is one of the main reasons I watch MLP :P
 
And I know 90% of the songs really well and can sing them pretty well too
 
Well, as well as my singing capabilities let me
 
 
I also know a lot of the fandom related songs and real-life songs
 
I probably know about 150 songs total on My Little Karaoke… and most of them really well… I’m trying to learn more… just too lazy to find new songs to sing :P Also I’m trying to get really good at those 150 songs… and doing so takes time…

A lot of times it’s caused by depression.. I had it once to some extent… and… well… I get ‘bored’ a lot but I wouldn’t say that’s anhedonia…
 
My moods still somewhat unstable but for the most part at least I’m better.. I used to be worse

The issue is not that what I used to do is not interesting to me anymore, as this could be fixed by finding new things to do; it is that nothing that I do provides the same level of excitement as it used to, and therefore, I have no mental escape.
 
Maybe it is all just a negative anticipation of activities which I could possibly enjoy, leading me to develop the conclusion that I like nothing.
 
@Rainboom Dash  
This sounds a lot like me.

I think my mic just fucking died
 
Dunno.. I took it with me in my suitcase on a trip… and now I’m home and it won’t work
 
I didn’t put any insulation around it… probably should have… I’d still HIGHLY doubt that it broke due to impact damage but.. shrugs
 
I mean, it’s a pretty durable mic…
 
 
Damn….

Damn… my Snowball mic doesn’t sound nearly as good as my other one :/
 
sigh I think it’s dead… I might take a look at it more later…. although, not sure what there is to look at… I tried everything I could think of
