The worst part is, I went back to that old story because it wasn't finished. I wanted to work it more but can't write like that anymore.
I feel you OP. Same happened to me since i started u. I once wrote a story full of dumb stuff in which the protagonist dies in the most stupid way possible just when his adventure was about to begin. Long ago i tried to do a story as much as stupid as the last one, but it wasn't good enough...i don't think the deterioration of my imagination has to do with depression, i don't think i have depression anyways.

I've become completely complacent in my depression. I accept that things will never improve; I find comfort in the hopelessness, because it is such a familiar feeling. I'm not even angry or sad anymore, just numb and bored. I do weird things to try to make life more interesting. One of my favorites is that I will eat very little for as long as I can, and then I'll finally cave to the hunger and be able to enjoy the food I decide to eat. I always get mad at myself because I end up eating way too much, and feel the need to go hungry for an extended period again. It's a viscous cycle. Despite this, eating tasty food after being really hungry is a very comfy feel, the only one I have left.

I pretty much live my life almost solely in escapist fantasies. I don't want to think about my life, I don't want to be in it. In the fantasies I make up entire worlds, cultures, histories etc, and just either watch the imagined people live there lives, or pretend I'm there. That I life in a world much better then this one. I hardly even know how to live among people in this world anymore, I've become this way though isolation, and deep distain for what our world has become.

Same dude. This exact same feel. Except I abuse Adderall in order to not be hungry. Also abuse other drugs in order to feel fucking something at least for a couple hours.
