That’s it. That’s the post. I feel like I “just exist” and don’t know what my purpose is in life. I don’t feel like I have some grand “desire” or “calling” and don’t know what I want. Every day just passes by and feels the same and I don’t feel like I’m progressing, in fact I feel like it’s getting worse. It’s the type of depression where you don’t want to do anything and then feel guilt later about not having accomplished anything. Take that and have that be pretty much every day for me. It’s such an awful feeling and I don’t know how to break free from it.

I know that feeling to well, took me ages to find my actual calling. I transitioned and followed things in realm that I felt made me happy and tried different roles until i felt i finally found something that sparked happiness and broke the cycle. Life can be monotone sometimes and uneventful. Nothing wrong if there is phase where I felt I did not produce something new or made progress. That is part of the journey, as frustrating it is, eventually accepted it the way it is. I know many who still are unsure what their calling is but they found the way of trying out new things either solo or they asked for friend or stranger to help out. I personally dont see anything wrong with just exist, sometimes that is all we can do when mental health is suffering, don't be to harsh on yourself 🫂

Do you perhaps have a list of things you wanted to try out in past but did not make time for because you were busy at the time, or things you wanted to try in future?
