Losing weight, in a way, is easier, because even if you do nothing your body is going to burn 1500-2000 calories all on its own. (Depending on your lean mass quantity / weight.) So if you control the input and do jack shit... you'll still lose weight.
Gaining muscle, on the other hand, means you have to
So... there's the three things you have to do. I highly recommend this book for a scientifically backed approach to this:

As far as "small lifestyle change" to get stronger.... body weight exercises like push ups and pull ups... but even there, once you can do 10 or so of those, you build endurance more than size.
Try this: one hour at the gym lifting weights three times a week, and don't waste any time doing cardio while there. Check your video game stats, I'm sure you can find three hours a week. After a year that will be over 150 hours of working out and I can assure you you'll be stronger! 💪
I'm pressed for time at the moment but let me pass on some more reading for you:
Defining CPTSD:

Self treatment:
Pete Walker, "Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving: A Guide and Map for Recovering from Childhood Trauma"

A self help book for those with CPTSD.
I wish you well.
>What do you mean ?
Just a joke lost in translation. it means "I understand you being polite and discrete but you can really tell it like it is here." P.S. I also edited my post. Here is another book if you can find it in pdf: https://www.amazon.com/Men-Strike-Boycotting-Marriage-Fatherhood/dp/1594036756/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=
I enjoyed this intro book.

You're giving away way too many fucks.
The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck: A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good Life
TBH it's introductory stoicism.
There a chapter on your values, how to discover them, and what happens when you don't live in accordance to them. (Even if they're shitty)
Start there. Read more books (audible)
A few years ago, I read
"Rebel without a Crew: Or How a 23-Year-Old Filmmaker With $7,000 Became a Hollywood Player"
by Robert Rodriguez, how he made his first movie El Mariachi
I loved the Mariachi-movies and I still believe, its do-able
the book:https://www.amazon.com/Rebel-without-Crew-23-Year-Old-Filmmaker/dp/0452271878
The guy that wrote The Man Who Mistook His Wife For a Hat (Dr. Oliver Sachs) also wrote a great book called Uncle Tungsten — he writes of this desire (to be rid of desires) over an entire chapter; although in his case he is writing more as a homosexual (in a time when this was not tolerated publicly) so maybe this influence his writings, more (although he doesn't discern between men or women in his fear of desires).
This book.

That's how Nature works in general, and those Stimuli can be hacked, and they are hacked everyday.

You seem to be focusing mostly on your external environment, but I don't think that's where your issues are. When we are unhappy we look outside of ourselves for the reasons and we can always find something to blame, but it's happening inside. Get your emotional state in order and everything else will fall into place. As to how to do that, it's not the same for everyone. But it's possible. Find what works for you. Therapy, meditation, self-help books, etc. If you are determined to find your way you will. It may take some time but it will happen. There is no need for anyone to feel like they're just killing time in life and basically waiting to die.
> I have no passion for the field of study I pursued.
I recommend the book So Good They Can't Ignore You for this.
Got a book for you:
You're Not Crazy - You're Codependent: What Everyone Affected by Addiction, Abuse, Trauma or Toxic Shaming Must know to have peace in their lives
Seriously. It will explain probably the ENTIRETY of your "family" -- yes even including your Mom and the reasons (ingrained behavior patterns) around why she CHOSE "such a shitty dude" to marry -- AND your sex/gambling maniac brothers... and probably yourself too.
It's doable, I've done it. If you want a lot of science backed info on the process, I recommend the book linked at the end of this post.

Kindle version is less than 8 bucks:

I'd second the "try to avoid carbs" approach, as they seem to make me hungrier too. But if you're getting that 1.2x protein a day, won't be much room left for carbs anyway.
