Depression or burnout

I've had issues with hyperfocus, overwhelm and inability to complete a writing task of a type that I have difficulties with and those difficulties have escalated over the years. Now I cannot even think about tackling anything that involves cognitive effort and feel very down. Is this depression or burnout or low self-esteem? Feeling a lot of shame.
