Dealing with burnout pls help

Hey, sorry for the silence - I've been dealing with burnout ever since I graduated college. I have very little (if any) creative drive anymore, and it worries me.

Mostly because I'd rather die than work a 9-5 for the rest of my life. And I'm not really good at anything else.

Even thinking about creating is exhausting. Why did I stop enjoying the one thing that gave me purpose? Will I ever enjoy it again? These questions have been haunting me for years now. My mind used to be so full of drawing ideas, fanfics, stories, etc, but nowadays it's an empty void. Tbh most things have stopped being enjoyable. Weird. Most days I just want to shut myself inside and vegetate on the couch.

Maybe it's current events? Maybe it's depression? Or maybe art was never meant to be my calling. Whatever it is, it's scary.

On the plus side! I've met the love of my life! Got our own place, and we're living day-to-day life with our two cats. I've never felt more loved and happy with another human being.
