You might be depressed. Dysthymia is sort of a long term depression.
I definitely relate to this. some time back I kind of forced myself to focus on something long enough to turn it into a hobby. I didn’t stick with that, but I eventually got into playing music again, and I’ve stuck with it for a while now and I’ve built a couple guitars and a bunch of pedals as well.
I think, if you’re anything like me, you’ll have to force yourself into a hobby for a while until it sticks.
Holy shit!? Luthier work? I gave that a go and it was kind of a stressful mess, but I'm glad I tried it.
Well, it was an electric (acoustic would be hard as fuck) and I said “build” because I bought a body and a neck from a Chinese company and all the parts from various places. I did all the finishing and assembly, but I didn’t cut out the body or neck, or put the frets in (although I did have to level and crown them).
Idk if I’ll ever actually do one from scratch. Could be fun. I’ve got some ideas for future projects though
