The last time I committed a story to paper was in the 7th grade. I kept a writing journal, either my second or third one since elementary school (my elementary school had storytime every Friday where the class would read their story for the week).
Anyway, I got bullied a good bit in middle school, so I tended to keep to myself and passed time in class writing in my story journal.
One day while we were in gym, I forgot to lock my locker and somebody stole the journal from my backpack, as well as my cell phone. I didn't find it until it had been circulated through the 7th grade populace at school.
My writing did not earn their favor. I'm pretty sure I shredded that stupid journal, if only because I couldn't shred the students. In any case, I never wrote after that. Everything else in my life is going wrong, though, so I figured I'd give it another shot. I don't know where to start, though.

Don't listen to Lionel. Start with things that disinterest you entirely. Practice ekphrasis or description of the texture of cardboard or the sensation of eating muesli. Or watch a scene from a film and describe it. You can build your own narratives and imagery later, the important thing is to get the pen going.

That's right, Quentin.
He got the tight idea, OP. Just write shit. Whatever you feel and see, write it down. Don't write a book. But force yourself to write, an hour each day, 1000 words, anything,
