Would be great to hear suggestions experiences and advice. I cannot figure out if it may be s medical condition ( i have only one ear working) or my resistance or plain laziness.
My advise to you:
1)First get a full medical examination including all hormonal blood levels to make sure everything is functioning within normal limits for your age and if anything is out of sync get treated for it.
2)If you feel its depression see a psychiatrist and also a psychologist for therapy.
3)Pray daily....not just mechanically but do some prayers especially Japa..cos the Japa recitation slows down the thoughts and increases the time span of being in the present.
4)Depending on your personality type choose your mode of exercise.
If you like groups join and Yoga group etc..if you prefer being alone do Yoga or any other exercise yourself.
Sometimes when we are depressed being in a group can actually make us WORSE..so you have to know what you really want.
5)If you are currently not working and waiting for a job, try to do any part time job meanwhile.
Here in Msia many pilots lost their jobs becos of Covid 19..some have started driving Grab car meanwhile and also some opened food stalls.
Try some job whatever you can though unconventional at first till your get your dream job.
6)Coming to job and goals...do not set a goal yet or dont set a goal at all if your are depressed.
Take one day at a time.
Life isnt about competing with another..its about finding your balance.
Even if you might not soar as high as you would its still better to be in a state of balance and contentment then someone who is flying high yet sans balance or contentment.
I am not saying its not possible to be high flying and balanced...its very much possible but dont think of it yet..just think of surviving each day till you recover.
Lastly..ask yourself.."what is life trying to tell me"
This question is only for you to answer and work your way slowly and reflect on it and that would determine the choices you would make for yourself.
Last but not least..a setback is totally fine.
Most humans have a total setback time, a total breakdown time..the last time when a human had a major breakdown in a battlefield , the world got the Bhagavad Gita..so nothing comes easy but it would have a greater good finally.
Take your time and heal yourself.
