If your dreams are dead then explore new dreams. What about changing jobs? I know it takes a lot of mental energy but call centers are a drain on your psych even when not grappling with depression. Can you change to something completely different? Completely different!!!
Finding a niche to help you pass to another field may give you a mental boost. If you like to write then write. Spend time being supportive to your girlfriend. Try to distract yourself from constantly telling yourself how miserable you are. Change the mantra in your brain. You are what you think so if you can’t change your life then change your mind.
And easy on alcohol and smoking grass. Both are depressants.

Just raise your sails and see where it takes you. Big hugs. Life is tough.
