It's not you, it's your low dopamine level that speaks for you. Funny that just a tiny amount of chemical make you a different person. Here's what you can do right now to increase it:

1. Go for sleep, at least for 10 hours.

2. Go for a long walk (all day long), preferrably where you never been before.

3. Stop drinking coffee and other caffeine-based drinks.

4. Stop drinking alcohol and smoke

5. Listen to your favorite music, read a book or do whatever you like.

6. Spend time with your friends and family.

Do this for at least a week and you will feel better for sure. BUT! If it does not help you need to visit psychotherapist as soon as possible - this condition is DANGEROUS!

Very simple points, but important ones. I agree.
