One of the symptoms of depression is losing interest in things that you previously enjoyed.
I was mildly depressed for a while and even things that previously gave me great joy, like music and hanging out with close friends, lost their charm. I believe the technical term for this is ahedonia. Luckily I got better and the joy came back.
So perhaps you do enjoy some of the things you've tried, your just not in a physical state to feel it at the moment.
