I'm lost in life and I need help

...See more So just to give you my backstory, I'm a 17 year old guy and around a month ago, my ex-gf cheated on me after being with me for almost an entire year. What she did was really inhumane because we actually broke up a week before my birthday (my birthday is on 1st of October) and after a week (right on my birthday), I got a message from her saying something along the lines "I hope you like looking at what you see, I've been doing this to you for the past month lol xx" with this message, she sent a picture of her with another guy. She also told me they had sexual intercourses and stuff like that and that she wanted to originally send me the videos of them doing you know what but only sent the picture instead. That day I was completely broken and my life fell apart. That day snapped something inside of me and I can't get a grip on my life. I've started using drugs and get into really bad addictions (weed, nsfw addiction) to escape the pain and loneliness I am in. In my mind, almost a month later, the fact that I got cheated on doesn't really matter for me anymore as I got over it (it still left this horrible impact and snowball effect on me). But the problem is that I forgot how to live life. I've been with this girl since i was 15, turning 16. Now I'm freshly 17 and I forgot what life is about. The things I used to do and enjoy (for example: gaming) don't even give me joy anymore. I'm stuck in a loop of rotting on my bed, scrolling reels or tiktoks for 18 hours a day, having addictions, etc... on top of all of that, I've gotten sick at the end of the last week and I'm on meds for the next week, that means even more pain and being unproductive. I've tried finding new hobbies or coming to the old ones but I always give up after actually taking action and doing them. I'm really lost and i don't even know how to ask for help with this. I really hope somebody can help me with this. I'd love to get therapy or counselling but I don't have money, nor my parents because my dad was in a car accident as well and we've been struggling financially since then. It's everything wrong at the same time and it's horrible, I feel really lost and overwhelmed.
