1. Accept who you are and where your life is. You don't have to like it, just stop fighting reality. Can't change what you are, and where you're at, without accepting it as your reality first.
2. Sleep better. Proper hours. Turn off lights and devices. Use natural light, or lack thereof, to reset your sleep patterns.
3. Diet and exercise. Start slow, don't let set backs slow you down. Keep improving day in day out. Don't stop.
4. Set small, positive, goals to help reset dopamine dependence and to increase your sense of self worth.

It sounds simple, but it will take effort at first.

Another, slightly out there, method is to conceptualize all those negative thoughts as a demon whispering in your ear. The thoughts now have a persona which will now be a target to fight against. Anytime a negative thought comes into your mind, just tell the demon to fuck off. Call it an idiot. Belittle it non stop. You are diminishing the power of those negative thoughts, making it easier to shake off.

Hope this helps. Best of luck
