Figured I'd see if anyone else experiences the lack of enjoyment in overall life. I just feel like it's too long of a wait period till it's over. I'm not suicidal like I used to be in my younger years. Mostly because I'm a single mom and this kiddo relies on me and I wouldn't dare let anyone else take care of him. I show excitement around him while doing things but deep down I'm just exhausted. I can't only be around friends for a short time and here and there because it just wipes me out. Just listening to them talk about things is draining. Anyone else feel like this or anything that helped you feel happy for real? I honestly just think it's my personality...

      @Smashum yeah, it's really hard to find a reason to keep going when nothing brings you joy. I basically just go one day at a time and keep myself busy

      Can relate to pretending to be happy around friends and loved ones to make them happy. I agree it's draining and listening to people talk about everyday problems like they are world ending kills me. Don't really find enjoyment in anything either. Just keep living for the sake of living and the lack of reasons to end it.

        @Tylerwill I wish I knew how to snap out of it. It's like I'm this person trapped behind this disappointed brain. Trying to get back into Eckhart Tolle and just accept it but man, it's hard.
