This sounds like depression to me. You're having trouble finding activities that interest you and feeling pessimistic about the future. It's easy to get stuck thinking that everything is hopeless or you're going to feel like this forever.

Try taking some time off to decompress and talking to a psychologist. It's a slow process and it can be very challenging but with time you can start getting excited about new challenges again.

+1. Depression affects 25% adults at some point. I am not talking about ‘sadness’ but a more profound condition whose symptoms are subtle at first, but pervasive and protean. And get a CT of your brain as well.
