What to do now?

I wouldn't have originally said I was depressed. But I definitely have the signs.
I have a relatively ok job. Way above average wage. Not silly money but in the late 40's.
All I do is stay in apart from work.
I have no friends and now I'm really just wondering what is the point.
All I will do is go to work tomorrow morning and I absolutely hate it.
Yet I know I have to. Just can't see the point.
I have no partner: no kids so nothing to look forward to whatsoever. No holiday plans. Literally just blank.
Every day is the same. I'm very ugly too. I used to be ok looking but now I'm the epitome of ugly with nothing in my life I ever enjoy.
I really want to tell everyone but I really don't know how as I know they'll try to give me some boring motivational speech which I really don't care about.!
What to do? I know I'm being unreasonable but I find absolutely nothing enjoyable about life anymore and haven't for absolutely years.
Do we just carry on and hope for the best?

I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way. I would say it definitely sounds like you’re depressed, so please reach out to your GP or MIND. You don’t have to live feeling this way.

Speak to your doctor about HRT. Reducing hormones can cause loss of energy and motivation.
Look up symptoms of peri menopause and I'm guessing you have several. Hormones can be transformative.
