There's no reason to not lift.
It's also perfect to combine with a low effort hobby like video games.
Why are you not lifting? Bodybuilding and lifting are the easiest way to get dopamine and cure depression without side effects.

The few times I've tried to consistently go to the gym I've completely failed to even go once a week.
And I can't afford a gym at home.

I lifted and it wasn't a magic bullet that fixed everything wrong with me like you said it is, so I stopped. Waste of time.
The best cure for depression is still fapping, at least it cures it momentarily.

The first week of lifting is miserable. Your body isn't used to it. Your body just feels sore with zero meaningful gains.
Start off very small. Do light jogging first. Slowly build up stamina before you hit the weights.

putting people in concrete cages glued to screens is inhuman and plain unhealthy

your only goal in life, from an evolutionary and biological standpoint, is reproduction
male participation in society is also strictly tied to this
you can either remove yourself from the gene pool and become a miserable incel fatoid or pass your genes, your call

Lifting sure isn't curing my depression or self loathing, but it does feel good to play vidya with sore muscles after working out.

I prefer cardio. Man was made to walk and run not monotonously lift and set down heavy metal. It's summer, go work in the garden, get some sunlight and useful muscle exertion.

I never got this meme. Lifting will sometimes give me a bit of a high after a workout but it doesn't last long and haven't noticed it changing my general mood.

All you really need is a bench, some dumbells and maybe a pullup bar. I have a tiny room and I still manage to find the space for those.

Overtime your energy reserves will increase and you won't feel as tired anymore afterward unless you went for another PR.

Nta but aim for small consistent goals to start. Do 15 minutes every day; when you start feeling like skipping a day you tell yourself "it's only 15 minutes", and that thought will help you push through the suck.

What will happen naturally is that you'll #1 incorporate the workout into your daily routine, which will make it feel more natural, and #2 it will create a solid foundation from where you can add on more exercises.

Focus mainly on base exercises like pushups, crunches, running etc; things you can do outside of the gym. If you have some money invest in some free weights and a cheap gym mat so you can do the exercises at home.

Once you've done this for a couple of months you will naturally start to increase reps/sets/weights.
