People often say they don't feel alive when they're depressed. You can take a depression screening test online, such as CESD R, or KADS 6-Item if you're a teenager.

Treatment usually begins by seeing the GP, who can give you a physical and a referral. I mention referral because just a bottle of pills is not a very good approach.

The things you'd want to tell the doctor are how you feel at different times of day, any symptoms you might have such as change in appetite or sleep, and things in your life affecting how you feel.

If you're depressed, I can't tell you exactly what you need. There's no one size fits all solution. I can tell you though that there are healthy lifestyle choices that can enhance the effects of the standard treatments with office visits. Details here, under DEPRESSION TREATMENTS -

If you cannot help it yourself, seek a professional help.

Get some hobbies.

You can do indoors and outside.

If that doesn't work,see a therapist.

It's possible depression.

I would start with trying to pinpoint "in so long" I would think if you could narrow that down you might get to the root of the issue. I would get a physical to rule out something medical. It could be 100 different medical issues you might not be aware of from sinuses to diabetes, to high blood pressure...we can only guess. If you are depressed then therapy can help you cope with an issue you may be avoiding.

Change your daily routine.Expand your interests and be more daring.Push boundaries you would never have attempted before.Break out of the freeze you put yourself in.Find out why.Sometimes a need to protect emotions.

You have to find out the Why you are not happy

and then work on it

It seems like something happened to you that blocked your feelings. I am the same. Perhaps emotional abuse where you are unable to express yourself.
