How to fix garage ceiling corner dropping?

Hello everyone,

 

I'm hoping to get some advice on a problem I've noticed with my garage ceiling. It looks like the ceiling and the architraves have started to sag in one corner. I've uploaded a few photos to show the issue from below and from the roof space above.

 

I went up into the roof cavity to inspect, but I couldn't find any signs of water pooling or any heavy objects that might be causing this.

 

This has me a bit puzzled. What are the possible causes for this if it's not water damage or excess weight? perhaps the vibrations from the garage door over time?

House built in 2016.

 

Is this something that can be fixed DIY?

 

I'd really appreciate any advice or suggestions on how to proceed!

 

Thanks
