How do you find ambition to do things? I don't want to be

Bump, would like to start my life and gain confidence and not be terrified when I think of the future

take your meds or suffer

I've never bothered going to a therapist to try and score SSRIs or anything similar, my older brother took them and it turned him into an (albeit independent) emotionless asshole.

I often look ahead and realize the consequences of not doing things.

For example:
"I don't want to shower" then I realize that my greasy ass will get a pizza face in no time.

Keep in mind that meds work but it's basically a shot in the dark. The MD has no idea which of the many different types of meds are good for you and some might even make your depression worse. Also some have horrible side effects which might manifest in different power with different people. Combine that with the fact the most meds require some time to start working (like 2 weeks). They definitely work but the entire process of finding the right one for you is incredibly tedious.

I only find motivation thanks to moving out to different cities. Maybe you should just try this approach?

By forcing yourself to do things even if you don't want to.
And trying things until you find something you like. Do the thing at least three times before you decide it's not for you.

For example, I decided in a whim to try woodworking. I hated it to start off with. I split wood, my hands cracked and I screwed up more times that I can count. But I forced myself to do it a few more times. Once I got some experience, it became an enjoyable thing. Plus I can do it just for myself, or for other people, or sell my work.

So basically try to develop Stockholm Syndrome towards everything that sounds interesting.
Fuck being human, dude. I'm leaning more towards death every day.

It's not Stockholm syndrome, you asshat. It's sticking with something long enough that the bad becomes a non-issue. Or you get good at the stuff you were once bad at.
