Its impossible for me to build muscles

[Deusmaximus]

I am literally going insane and totally depressed. Been training for months without any success. I am not even building strength.
Push pull 4 times a week. I am 178cm and was 68kg 1 month ago with 2300 calories a day. I upped to 2500-2600 a day and gained 1kg of pure FAT. My belly went from flat to chubby and fluffy.

I really start to think i have a massive hormonal problem. Maybe its cortisol because i am stressed and anxious the whole day, or simply low t high E.
When i was 18/19/20/21 i could gain muscles very fast and had insane pumps/agression and power. I was 83kg ripped. Now i am just a depressed skinny fat loser

Short guys usually build muscles faster. Maybe its because im already old and less anabolic

You have body dysmorphia.
You are lean in those pictures, because your abs are very defined. It's normal to have some fat on your stomach if you're a natural lifter.

The reason why you're not making any progress is because you're not eating enough. As for your training, you need to focus on compound movements and train hard while inducing progressive overload every workout. As for your diet, you need a caloric surplus, and you need anywhere between 0.82 and 1g of protein per lb of bodyweight.
