What the hell is wrong with me? I can’t even enjoy many of the things I would find much pleasure in doing like gaming/socialising now I either have to do drugs to enjoy these things or consume alcohol (a lot) I can’t even do simple things like watching films, I usually turn it off 10 minutes in as I can’t concentrate on the plot or follow it. I also take pills but I’m feeling no improvement.
sounds like you're severely depressed my guy. Set some short term goals and focus on achieving those, and cut back on drugs/alcohol. How long have you been on the pills? If it's been longer than 2 weeks I'd talk to your doctor about switching

Do you work? What is your financial status?

I’m financially good

I think it’s pretty straightforward OP, you have to consume a lot of alcohol to feel good probably because your tolerance is so damn high now.
Quit alcohol

Good. Many people are not, appreciate that. Now you need a hobby. Not screen related. Outside activity. Sport, motorsport, fishing, hunting, climbing, something that interests you. Do it well. Buy good equipment and study about it. Google is your friend. You will probably meet interesting people there. Make friends. Go out for food or drinks. You can always visit a therapist. There is no taboo in it. I made some visits last year and I was in a much easier situation than yours. If you don't like it don't go again. You have nothing to lose.
give yourself one minute everyday where you read a book and if you can't remember the gist of everything you've read so far, don't move on. Then two minutes, three... ten etc.
Godspeed and bon courage, obviously missing out on mental exercise doesn't preclude you from starting again, now

Least you aren't an addict. I can't even drink a cup of coffee without blowing through 7-10 cups within a few hours. 3 days sober, and all I've been drinking is coffee, it's fucking with me. I tried kickstarts, ICE sparkling water, and other of those low calorie cheat "sodas" and they all leave disgusting aftertastes. Beer is fucking delicious, even the cheapest Busch shit tastes fucking glorious to me. I can't just have 1 or 2, I end up having 12.

Exercise like you are punishing yourself. Nothing complicated just get on your bike and ride up hills until your legs give out. You already hate yourself, so punish yourself. Give yourself a muscle spasm for being such a bitch.

I usually drink half a fifth a night plus a few beers. But I only make $2,000 a month and rent is $750 on top of that I have bills and shit. Drinking takes the sting of life away.

You need God. I've been spreading the word since the 23rd, even though you guys aren't atheist, you still hold on to the retarded belief that god is humanoid and not a cobra.
Read the Bible, dibshits. The only time god shows himself physically to more than one person is when he reveals as a cobra from Moses' staff when confronting the pharaoh.
Exodus 7:10 The lord told Moses to throw down the staff, it became the snake. God's true form is a cobra. He did not make man in his image, he gave that grace to the subtlest creatures.
Look at Egypt's creation story, Apep (a cobra) and Atum (their version of God) where once one, each of them represented two sides of one individual. Egypt goes into heresy when they say that these beings split into two.
But we can surmise that all religions that have a god reference the same god through different lenses. Only christians get it right, obviously, but many religions have a snake god that contrasts a malviolent one.
This is actually the duality of god. Like a cobra he can be wrathful, but also he can be calm. Cobras strike down animals much larger than they with venom in much the same way an all powerful being might with lightning.
It is important that we still love god, though he takes the shape of something most find terrifying or repulsive. He cast down his lightning venom only on the wicked for He is just!
It is also no coincidence that snakes in general are mentioned so often in the Bible. It is not enough to have each line in the Bible memorized, but one must also read between the lines as well.
To say that god is neither man nor cobra is to say that the serpentic imagery and messages along with god's own divine acts are meaningless, which is just not true.

You should look into getting a physical job. I was always severely depressed and had anxiety, did drugs daily and found life boring. Tried college twice (I’m 29) both times got through a few semesters with straight As, I always ended getting bored and restless. Applied to the plumbers union and got in within a couple years. It’s hinestley changed my life. Every day you overcome obstacles and feel good about yourself. You learn a tangible skill that’s very useful and something you can be proud of. You work hard and are naturally tired at the end of the day and it feels amazing, not to mention you’re making excellent money at the same time. For the first time in 15 years I’m happy and have depression/anxiety free.

Go to AA. Everyone there has been where you are and will understand how you feel, unlike the people on this board who are like "Snap out of it."
I've been sober almost ten years. It really works.
