Is this what adulthood is? Is this the reality of life? Is this what living is supposed to feel like? Then I don't want it anymore.
I just keep falling deeper and don't know when this is going to stop. I have no energy left and it's just so exhausting to even leave the bed in the morning to go to work or socialize in any way.
I Don't feel real and just absolutely empty, Lonely.. I have no one to talk to and not even my job excites me anymore, it's just draining to deal with people over the day.
I'm ashamed, that I'm not even capable to live a good and normal life and that I can't take care of my mental health like I should need to, instead I hurt myself just to feel alive and I can't even stop now. As if the blood proves me that I'm still human...

People like you who get excited over a job are always left disappointed because the excitement always goes away. Look for another job and when you get one don't be excited over it. Be happy that you have a job.
ReplyIn my experience, no it doesn’t get better. The best time is probably teen years just before adulthood. As you described, after that it’s difficult finding meaning and excitement about anything. Our best hope is to find others who inspire and motivate us with our collective dreams, but that’s a tall order. As we get older, everyone becomes “average.”
ReplyMake sure your diet or a health concern isn’t making you sleepy. Also, you might not want to get out of bed if you’re in a bout of depression or simply coming down off a drug. In that case, get therapy and take antidepressants—and don’t do drugs.
ReplyOptimists view stumbling blocks, difficulties, and disappointments as temporary and as learning experiences. They move on and look forward as quickly as possible.
Pessimists discount good experiences and consider them as temporary and shallow. They nervously wait for that something that will confirm their expectations of gloom and doom.
Both, given the exact same experience, will feel completely different about it.
Life just happens. None of us have much control over what happens next. We can, however, control how we react and respond.
Change your mind, change your mental conversation with yourself, and your life will 'feel' a whole lot better. You can stop dwelling on disappointments and can begin expecting encounters that will excite you. Life will send to you that which you expect and think about most.
