Is it normal if i feel like its the end of the world?

Either the world is going to end soon or my life is going to end soon. Idk which one it is but I feel like this ending coming, at any momemt be prepared. With all this "live life to the fullest, each day, yolo, be happy you woke up, etc" talk, instead of making me feel good it makes me feel like shit. Like pressured because my life is almost done. I'm in my twenties btw but I seriously feel hopeless. From those quotes, to dealing with daily struggles at work, to getting tired of human beings in general, to politics, to first world problems, I just don't know what's going on. Sometimes I say to myself, its okay cause its almost the end of the world so I should just live my life the way I want to. Maybe I'm just going through minor depression? I have dealt with depression like all my life but a while ago it was bad and now that I've been working, I have felt better but I still get these hopeless feelings and sometimes the reason is because of where I work. To be honest, I think people just make me depressed and unfortunately in order to survive, you have to conform to society in some way. Only the fittest survive.

So is it just me feeling the end of the world or is this universal? Is this normal?

    You made me think of this song:

    But in all seriousness, don't worry. Life's but a dream. Albeit a very persistant one. :)

    It's one thing to think the world is going to end but if you feel it's going to end then it's most likely a side effect of depression. I've felt like that during a particularly rough year in highschool.

  • I thought the world was going to end once when they built the large hadron collider but I foiled their plans.

    I'm kinda bored by this post, but I do have one important question; how does one prepare for the end of the world?

      Stocking up on guns and ammo, I'd assume. Shit could get desperate out there. Gotta be ready.

        The end of the world is a calamity of catastrophic destruction, like a huge meteor strike or super volcano, to me. What you describe is more a breakdown of society.

        • This is what I feel like the end of the world is and what I'm expecting soon.

          Oh. In that case I'd spend a lot of time with my family and friends and instead of going to work, I'd spend the last of my savings on craiglist hookers and cocaine.
