Overstimulation with dopamine, is all. You won't be able to build/make anything remotely as satisfying, let alone a relationship.

In short : pull back from ovestimulating yourself, let your brain gets a LOT of rest (sure at first, getting bored might scare you, but really you should stop restlessly stimulating your brain), and your mood will naturally improve after recuperating some sanity.

@Ryip umm... I don't know  how to answer  to you but I think what you say in true somehow and that's what I'm doing it.... If I let relex myself a little bit I start to Overthink all the possibility about my future and all the unnecessary things... I've try to meditate... And stuff but it's just yk....
@Flower 521 that's why I try to read and write but somehow because of it it triggers some points or relate to me and it's just makes me rethink all the  stuff....
@Flower 521 Really, make a serious cut in distractions and let your brain daydream. At first you might crave for dopamine shots but with time and repetitions, you can return to a much more balanced routine with a sane amount of thinking (working, studying, planning, etc), daydreaming (= NOTHING, NOT doing/thinking/watching/reading/etc, just letting your imagination on the loose) and distractions (reading, watching, discussing, doing, etc).

NB: (It's counter-intuitive but) Distractions aren't that "relaxing" for brain -- they put you off your tracks of thoughts, they literally vampirize your attention, etc. In short it's drainning for your brain, and surprisingly much more than for instance studying or thinking about a matter.
