Why are you against exercisingtarsal coalition in both feet.
Edit: I realized this might have come off as ableist. Do you have some kind of notable physical disability? If you don't, then you can exercise
What hobbies you got?video games, anime, and music. although they aren't always guaranteed joyful, especially each year that goes by it only worsens.
Listening to music or playing music?listening, i don't have the tools to play it, i sing and rap to myself quite a bit though as long as no one's around, whether songs that are on my mind, or original lyrics.

To answer your original question something I do to be happy is to sit or lie down in a dark room and listen to a favourite or interesting album with headphones on or earphones in. When's the last time you actively listened to some music?you know... in my teens and early 20's music was my life, i actually wanted to be an artist. been sheltered for years now and have this mentality with music that i must be doing something while listening, whether it be grinding in a game, or doing chores. never anymore do i just... you know, just forget about everything else and simply listen to the music. not sure where that mentality came from.
I think you should try it. Put some dedicated time aside, browse through some music, read some reviews/articles on your computer/phone then take it to another room and just listen through it. Might help your creative side too if being an artist is still something you want to pursue.maybe that's my problem, everything is an attempt to distract myself from my racy anxiety thoughts, and of course the depression as well, but having a tough time finding relief even though these things use to.
I'm not saying you do this, but I think a lot of us put on Youtube, anime, video games and music just to distract us from thinking too much rather than something to actually enjoy. I know sometimes I definitely do this.
depression and anxiety are gonna hold happiness and euphoria backyeah that's one of my issues is i'm pretty treatment resistant to both medication and therapy alike, my mom always says she thinks i've been on almost every one of them. i hate counseling especially, feels like a massive waste of time.
you gotta deal with those first or it'll keep getting worse
I take medication and it works wonders for me
Games (Video games, board games, TTRPGs, etc)its crazy, always loved cats but i feel awful most days and feel still depressed and painful even when cuddling with one, hugging them, petting them, it sucks it feels like i don't love them even though i know i do. i worry about this with human's too, not sure if i really love humans like at all. i feel like i may be incapable of love, and it really hurts. i don't know if that can be helped at this point. :'c
My Pets
Being around Friends and Family
Reading a good book
A good happy cry
Good Sex (unless that counts as exercise)
Listening to a good song (or one I just like)
And honestly, just being with my BF (or SO, in general) feeels really good

at times i want a BF myself, but not sure if i am relationship worthy. the idea of more master/slave relationship far outweigh's interest in vanilla. i'm worried that's hardwired, since the fantasy has been years running. maybe it'd change if i met people, i am unfamiliar with people tbh.
Your pets probably know. They can usually sense what youre feeling And I remember you from the other board/topic. You could probably find someone whos into that sort of relationship. Or even ask a partner you find if they would be interesting in trying it out with you. Even if not 24/7 But without being you, I cant tell you exactly how to be happy. I can only offer suggestions based on things I know about you from what you tell usah man... that upsets me more, i hope my pets don't think i hate them. i don't i'm just suffering a lot. the cat that likes me...(the other one is close to my mom.) but yeah back to the cat, he seems happy to greet me, lay with me, get pet, on his terms of course lol. while me, i'm in pain from the depression and barely ever any joy anymore. it sucks to feel like that around such a lovely friend.
