Alas, I have the ‘nothing at all gives me dopamine’ ADHD. I thought it was just depression for years, but turns out it was ADHD. I struggle to see any benefits that come from my condition.
ADHD can correlate with depression. You still need to treat the depression though. Untreated depression will indeed blind you to anything positive about anything.
Same, was speaking from experience as well. I consider myself recovered from the depression now, but it was definitely something I needed to proactively address.

Yup, it‘s probably that. In a societal vacuum, the curiosity would exist, but the daily struggle and resulting depression overshadows it.
