I really resonate with your comment and also struggled with depression throughout my teens into adulthood until I learned about late diagnosed adhd and how those who fly under the radar for that can often lead to chronic burnout which is very similar looking to depression. Have you ever considered you might be ADHD?

Definitely not ADHD in my case. My depression came from family history and having internalised harmfully high expectations.
Edit: Oh and likely genetics that produce less serotonin than would be ideal.
Edit2: Also, it developed way too gradually to be a burnout.
