Please help
I want to be happy and not be miserable and I feel like I try to help others be happy but I can’t get myself to be happy 😢

Can you apply the things you do to make others happy to yourself? Also, I have also wanted to be happy but I realize that no one’s happy all the time. What I try to be now is a person who can handle emotions. I’ve been monitoring my emotions through this free app. It might give you insight. https://howwefeel.org/
I also struggle with making myself happy. I think that Has to do some with your Ocd makes you compare yourself and other things that make you want to isolate yourself and feel depressed and worthless.  When you feel this way, makes you feel depressed and it makes it hard for you to have the energy or be motivated to do things you want to do it’s like you’re stuck in this cycle.
Please pray that I can be happy without punishing myself and stay happy. I know that I’m not always going to be happy but I would love to stay happy when I do get happy
I feel so burnt out. I’m not enjoying life anymore. I’m either extremely bored, sad, pr anxious at work, I come home and don’t even want to cook, watch Netflix but don’t even want to watch anything, and just want to crawl in bed, cry, and go to bed. I don’t want to do anything and work, chores, cooking, etc. are extremely hard for me to do. I compare myself to my roomate who works from home, is accomplished in her job, cooks a lot, enjoys tv, and way more extroverted and mature than I am. Sometimes it gets annoying and it’s the last thing I need. She sometimes “mothers” me and makes sure I know what I’m doing in the kitchen. I feel like I can’t talk to an erp therapist about things like this because I think it’s more than just erp therapy that I need. I’m struggling to take care of myself and don’t enjoy things anymore. I’m scared but feel numb about the future. I’m just exhausted, annoyed, and bored all the time. I also feel like I don’t like myself and judge myself constantly. I wish I could be more confident, have a more fun personality, felt motivated to do things, actually enjoy them, and have friends and family who would 100% understand me. I also wish I was more so a leader but I’m not. How can I live a more exciting life? I’m so bored and depressed everyday. I hate it.
feel really down like i'll never be able to live my life i feel i'm never truly happy i just have to get by i feel stuck ive had loads of therapy cbt nothing will ever really help me 😞
