I was depressed and NEET for about a decade too. Cognitive behavioral therapy helped me get a better outlook on life and put me on track to a successful career.
My advice is to be humble and open-minded to things that can drastically improve your life.
Do not think you are entitled to anything because you have a degree or for some other reason; let go of those thoughts - they can make it seem like you don't have an employment option "good enough" for you or that nothing you do could give you the luxury/quality in life you expect. Accept that you will need to start at the entry level. Let go of all expectations. It should feel very freeing.
Then become open to doing the things that push you toward your goals. First, consider what you want in your life as a next step. Is it therapy? Is it getting a job? Is it something else? Pick one, and focus on that. Secondly, execute without judgment and thought. Once you plan, do it without thinking, like a ribosome translating RNA into a polypeptide. It doesn't care whether the protein it builds is good or "right." It just does it by script. And so can you. If you wish to do therapy, just show up in your sessions. If you want a job, just pick an easy entry-level role and attend the interviews. Whatever you decide to do, start executing and never stop. Even if you just do one task a day (like today you research therapists available to you, tomorrow you call one, the day after that you call another; or today you decide what job you want, tomorrow you research how your resume should look, the day after you update your resume, then you look for open roles, then you apply).
Whatever you do, make it easy for yourself by removing judgment, expectations, and time pressure. But once you start, do not stop.
