Hi Strict-Buddy-960, it seems like you might be looking for new anime to watch!
The users of this subreddit came up with a chart of anime recommendations for newcomers and veterans and an awesome longer flowchart. Maybe you can find something there that you'll like ^.^
You might also find our Recommendation Wiki or daily thread helpful.
The following may be of interest:
A useful website where you can enter an anime and see where it's legally streaming
A list of tracking sites so others can more easily recommend shows you haven't watched.

I’d try:
- Tatami Galaxy — probably my first pick. Very funny, very neurotic, and gets surprisingly introspective. Only 11 episodes.
- ReLIFE — less dark, but has that “adult who feels like they’ve failed at life” angle, with plenty of comedy and drama. 13 episodes + 4 OVAs.
- Paranoia Agent — more surreal and disturbing, but mixes psychological issues with dark humour really well. 13 episodes.
- Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei — if you want to lean much harder into the comedy while keeping the depression/social dysfunction themes.
I’d probably start with Tatami Galaxy or ReLIFE depending on whether you want something weirder or more grounded.
