If you've been feeling flat and empty for a while, struggling to find interest in things and are starting to neglect personal care (cooking, cleaning etc) which is all pretty much what's listed in the OP then that's a pretty common signifier of depression.
So I'm glad you've already decided to go and see a psych of some kind, because I think it will be a sensible move to tackle this before it becomes set in and particularly hard to shift.
With regards to the stigma, it very often boils down to people just not understanding the condition. It's hard to know what it feels like if you haven't experienced it before, you can have colourful metaphors aplenty but they only do so much. It's bloody difficult going into a shrink's office for the first time, but they will be there to help you feel comfortable talking and to see what they can do to help you get better.
Thanks, it's good to get your perspective on this. I was hoping you'd show up, actually. I was going to go to the student care at campus today, but I couldn't find them where they are supposed to be according to my uni's website. So I guess I'll go straight to the real deal, as they have clearer directions of where to find them and I can't be arsed to play detective to find people who may not even be able to help properly.

I called my mom and we talked for about an hour. It felt good, I should do it more often.
She suggested going to the student care at campus before going to a clinic, so I'll try contacting them tomorrow.

Mind and body are connected interdependently. When one is out of whack, so is the other, in some or even many forms.
Are you healthy physically? I mean REALLY. . are you? Is your lifestyle healthy? Get to the bottom of it. No one, not even a psychiatrist/psychologist can analyze your life as well as you can.
Start paying better attention to what you're doing, how you're living, and even what you're putting into your body (both food and medicine) and be mindful of the consequences. Pay attention to the mechanics of your every day life.
I'm not saying that you shouldn't try to seek help from a professional, there's nothing wrong with giving it a shot. Just realize that you can't change unless you yourself are truly aware of what is happening to you, not someone else, even if they have a degree.
And ffs DON'T give in to the thought,"I am just broken, or I am just not right. I just have this condition so I will always be this way" That shit is a trap. It will take hold of you and then you will never escape the metaphorical pit you're digging yourself into.
You need to abide by the thought, "this rut is impermanent, I WILL overcome this. I AM overcoming this." And don't ever stop abiding by it.
No one ever attains a new mindset without repetition. Don't just wonder why you're feeling a certain way. Get to the bottom of it.
I guess I'm not really that healthy, no. It's been even worse for the last couple weeks as I often don't feel like cooking a proper meal. Kind of a downward spiral I guess. I don't feel that locked in, to be honest. I was able to be excited on a regular basis before, so I'll just have to find a way to be like that again. This is temporary, I won't let it stick with me to the grave.

Thanks for the support guys, I think I'm going to seek professional help with this, and soon.

I would recommend doing it since you have access.
I guess I will. But there's this stigma, you know? I know I wouldn't be judged for it, but I still feel like it would be something shameful about it. I have just recently accepted the truth that I have problems, so I guess it'll take a little while until I'm ready for this.

Forget the psychiatrist. See a psychologist instead.
Also, welcome to the club. I've been a member of depression here since the very beginning.
It's called the adult psychiatric outpatient clinic (translation) but there's psychologists there as well apparently.

I feel empty often, and find it hard to get excited for things. I do feel better when I distract myself with video games or netflix, but it stops shortly after. I find it hard to study and do housework like cooking and cleaning.
I've began to seriously consider seeking help as this is really starting to hurt my studies and frankly feels like shit. Should I go to the local psychiatric clinic?

Not really, but the majority of people are atheist here so there's no real reason to do it. It's like telling people you're a meat eater.
talking about irl mane
I did too. "Here" refers to Sweden.
I thought about that right after I hit submit. My bad.
No worries, I realized that I was a bit ambiguous.

I kissed a girl a few weeks back.
I also made out with a guy friend for much longer, so...
We were all pretty drunk.

I want you to play me something.
I'll do if I remember it when it arrives. It ships from the US so it'll probably be at least two weeks or so before it gets here.

I used to play the viola, but stopped due to feeling like it came in the way of high school, and due to it feeling too much like a chore to practice.
But recently I've began to think about picking it up again, and today I decided to order an electric violin as I found a (relatively) cheap model that still gives you bang for your buck according to the reviews I've seen. A violin is a little bit different from a viola, of course, but they're still very similar instruments save for size and pitch.
Even though I felt tired of playing an instrument before, I hope this time it'll be different. If I can practice on my own terms at my own pace, rather than feeling forced to fill a certain quota each week, maybe it'll be better.
Or maybe it'll not and I'll regret this purchase, heh.

Zombies are an easy excuse for slow, stupid enemies. AI's are sort of more interesting by default, at least to me. Unless you just make them into mindless drones, then they're reskinned zombies.

lower your standards and say yes to everything
I swiped right on everyone except maybe 5%, though. I'm thinking I probably didn't set my profile up optimally, so I just might wait a a little while and try again with a different approach.
